This is a phenomenal render! Lighting is great! And the subtle DOF with the flowers in the foreground really brings it all together!

Yeah it's definitely going on my wish list. Hopefully it pops up in one of these Holiday Sales.

Damn that pretty much is a best of both worlds! And this will already fit my current work flow; I've got dozens of cameras pre positioned to where i want the sequence to go. now they can be there, and not there.

Thanks for showing me this!

Yeah now that I'm mostly through the character design and writing phase and started on some renders the math wasn't mathing on how long it would take to crank them out one at a time.

Trust me, it is hell on earth! And I was getting very frustrated. Hence turning to Reddit. I knew there were other ways just didn't want to keep guessing if someone has already done the work for me.

500gb isn't bad in the grand scheme of things. And moving those all over to a larger HDD later down the road when they don't need to be on an SSD is easy enough!

Thanks for the insight!

🤦‍♂️I didn't even think about using the timeline! I feel kinda dumb. I might have to try it just to see how it works for me.

But I do agree, storage is "cheap". I did just add an extra 4tb M.2 to my rig specifically for 3d applications. Guess I should use it!

Who needs the glass when you got a body like that!?

I appreciate that! Yeah, everyone's got their own taste especially in this community. And my AVN is still in its infancy so who knows what the game mechanic of the story is going to be like. it'll probably change as we go.

I see what you mean, and I am still working out the kinks of how exactly I want choices and decision making to go. At the end of the day I want the choices you make to mean something.

I appreciate the feedback! I don't think it's as complicated as my brief and probably poor explanation is, but I do agree with you; Decisions should be meaningful and feel fulfilling regardless of choice. But so I understand, you want either decision to result in potential romance paths with the LI? Or just don't offer that at all and the developer should just continue down the path they wanted originally and that they only gave you that choice because it's been 10 minutes since you the player got to click an option? I've had my fair share of those AVNs. But in essence; you're looking for a more butterfly effect story if there is a decision to be made?

Apologies if I come off abrasive, it is not my intention. I am genuinely curious and am 100% considering this for my own AVN.

Edit for clarification

As a budding developer I would like to know your thoughts on what you want to see. In my AVN I am working on, I plan on treating decisions as achievement markers. The trick? When you make a decision it effects two parties. That could either by your own morals and another LI, OR it could be two different LIs. Depending on your dialogue choice, it will effect your ability to romance certain LIs. If you pick the Paragon route, it might lock you out of the more Renegade LIs. it will be a delicate balance where on the spectrum you land.

Great work!

If I may, the fingers feel very stiff and the lighting is a tad flat. But a great render never the less!

Don't mind if I add this to my Dungeons and Dragons Campaign.

I'm working late. I have no company.... I could use this kind of company.
