Progress update 8

Oi!

Another small progress update ahead!

This by-weekly time I actually managed some more notable progress. First week was again uni filled with stuff, but the 2nd week was much more open to work. I also think I should have a small window of free time before the uni really kicks into gear again for the photo finish.

So what has been done since progress report 7?
Mostly renders and a bit dialogue. Honestly, the 15% dialogue jump in a bit misleading, as not much has been written, it's more of a correction as it seems I didn't really move it properly one of the times 😅 I mean, I am missing just ~20-30 renders and I completed all renders for the written dialogue atm, wouldn't make sense to be that behind.

And yea, that's what I've been mostly working, renders. Now I am up to 930 total renders (+230 since last progress), which is still slow, but slowly picked up. And after I do those 20 remaining, I am FINALLY DONE with the longest segment I've ever done so far. Well, unless you count the hotel party in ep3 as one segment, I kinda don't with all the characters appearing there. Regardless, I hope you guys and girls like how I did it.

Yup, that's about it. A bit dialogue, and more renders. In the first week, I also spent roughly 30 hours trying to figure out how to improve the eyes of characters due to a new mod release for it. I finally managed to get it working, and applied on all the main characters. It took quite a bit of fiddling around to make it as close as old ones in style and color. I hope people will appreciate it 😊

In next 2 weeks, I'll finally continue with proper dialogue writing, and I'll also already arrange my proofreader to begin on this "half" of the game update I have, to speed up a tiny bit the process. One-two days is still 1-2 days saved.

Important counters:

Weeks till Katana done with uni: ~6 weeks

Total butt renders in ep4: ~15

As always, thank you so much for the patience while I am struggling to complete my uni.
Stay safe,
Kat <3
