Big apologies in advance for the long post folks, its necessary and wont happen often!
Two versions in and I'm happy with the game's progress, its early I know but I like where I'm at, especially since weeks ago you didn't even know about this game. Now we have a good amount of people checking it out and making suggestions and that's fucking great
I'm still having a real issue with render quality, hardware limits don't give good results, but that should be fixed with the new PC. If only I could blame everything on the hardware, the bigger problem is still lighting. Even when renders are not demanding and clean, it still looks meh in places and fucking awful in others.
I'm looking at a lot of different tutorials, so I'm hoping this will be fixed by just getting more experience with Daz3D
Now that's done, my next point is about the next version and how I write. I don't know if it comes across since its not labeled in the game, but versions are scripted day by day.
I like to keep days in separate documents to keep things easy to track, so when I was finishing up writing day two, I count 0.0001 as day 0 since its an intro, it came up shorter. I don't think that's bad because it turned out how I wanted it to, so I wont pad it out, not everyday is going to be full of events, that's how real life works lol.
The next version however, will not be shorter, because I've decided to combine day 2 and 3 into the same version, that will be labeled 0.0003. The day 2 event is another trip to the gym and hang out with Sarah and day 3 is the introduction of Jame's day job.
(I've planned this out a lot further than some people might think
)
But that's not all that happens. In both days new characters are introduced!
Now, before I start, I just want to reassure people that Miranda and Sarah are the focus of the story and it will stay that way, hell Miranda is an even bigger focus than Sarah, but this story cant be just three characters the whole time and each character makes sense in the context of the story
(I even mentioned in another post that Miranda has a half-sister who will turn up, so there are more after this)
Anyway intro time, hope you like them!
(And don't be too shocked not all of them are black! LOL)
Katie
Some might remember that name appearing? Katie, who is a couple of years older than Sarah, is her colleague and good friend. The two have an equal love for fitness and hang out a lot, so with James being around Sarah again, the two had to meet. Which means future content will involve grabbing drinks with the girls and becoming pals with Katie, who knows what else might happen during that as well....did I mention she is bi-sexual
Pepper
Pepper is the mature, long time secretary of the software company James works for, so she'll turn up whenever the story is at Jame's work, and maybe outside that? People make friends at work and Pepper is popular with everyone there, she's the first face they see in the morning and is very....motherly shall I say? Most would just say a MILF lol
Ariana
Ariana is the same age as James, and the other member of his department at work, cant have him working alone. Ari is laid back, just treats work as work, not looking to move up the ranks, just turn up and get paid, she is also pretty easy to get along with, as James will find out, so long as he pulls his weight on the job!
Hope you like them, and look forward to meeting them soon!
