Yes, Female Forge is a kind of alternative for those who are not familiar with software like Daz3D. It allows them to customize a female model in a simple way, even with a low-end computer.
Yes, development is still ongoing: I’m currently working on version MK5, but for now I don’t yet know when it will be released.
The backgrounds are intentionally blurred, as it creates a small depth effect and highlights the character more (this is what’s called DOF → Depth of Field). But you can add your own backgrounds if you wish, in ‘Backgrounds custom’.
As for the zoom, I could increase its limit, but that would make the character very pixelated. Each pre-render is in 4K with crunched compression (to prevent the game from weighing more than 100 GB). But when zooming in too far, the compression becomes visible and it looks really bad. That’s why I’ve set this zoom limit.
Mods allow you to create and import your own outfits. A small tutorial is available in the Modding -> Resource -> Help folder.
Many thanks for your purchase (and the tip 🙏), and also for your support!
See you soon, take care, and if you have any questions I remain at your disposal.
You're right, it's a great idea. I've released a new update that brings the "Snap back" feature (I've also added it to Marta). And no, I don't have a plan for "Dress me" I'm just improvising :)
Mods are outfits you've created. These can be outfits you've designed yourself, or outfits you've crafted using the 5,000 PNGs provided in a separate folder (supporter only). Some knowledge of software like Photoshop or Gimp is required. Once created they can be added and loaded into the game.
Due to its internal structure, Female Forge is currently impossible to port to mobile.
However, I am thinking about a lighter version (dedicated to small hardware configuration) and less RAM-hungry, because FF uses PNGs in 4k (ideal on 2160p screens) and it is indeed quite heavy, but the problem is that to make FF lighter, I will have to reduce the resolution of the PNGs and this will greatly affect the visual quality and will be usable in correct conditions only on a 1080p screens.
In any case, the "Lite" version is an interesting idea and thank you for your comment.
I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble launching. May I know how much RAM you have? And how much free space you have on your C: drive?
It is important to have enough free space on the C drive because if there isn't enough available RAM, Female Forge will use the virtual memory on the C drive by default (unless you have moved the pagefile to another drive).
I'm really sorry but there are currently no plans for me to make a "Male Forge" version, the idea is excellent but I currently don't have the time or resources necessary for its development.
I'm going to think about the best way to port FF to Android. It's not something easy to do because FF is designed for Windows. But I'm going to think about it.
Hi, thank you very much, I'm glad you like FF, I spend a lot of time developing it and this kind of comment motivates me enormously, THANK YOU for your support.
Yes good idea, this had already been asked of me and it is something that I will add in the next update, thank you for this feedback and take care of yourself.
Hi, thank you very much for this very constructive feedback and these magnificent screenshots.
For the hexadecimal values of the colors I have experimented with this system and it is not reliable because each item of clothing or accessory has a shade of gray that is different, so using hexadecimal values is not effective.
For the scroll bars I understand that when there are a lot of elements they are not very practical, but you are not obliged to use it because you can scroll as if you were scrolling on a smartphone touch screen, that is to say by clicking on one of the elements (or between) and sliding from right to left, this method is more precise.
For the coats I have just done some testing and for the moment it is difficult to implement because it poses a problem for the majority of the clothes when superimposing.
For sneakers or flat-soled shoes, it is also complicated to implement because FF is based on image superpositions, having sneakers modifies the pose of the feet and makes incompatible all the other elements linked to the foot like tights for example (I will see if I can find a solution to this).
For the expressions, I will try to improve them in the future.
And finally, I added the tag "dress up game".
Thanks again for this feedback, I am glad you like FF, take care of yourself.
yes as updates go on some elements that were exclusive to the supporter version will become accessible from the free version, but with each update content will be added to the supporter version in order to expand this version as a priority. On the other hand, some elements such as cosplay outfits will only remain accessible via the supporter version. If you have any other questions, I remain at your disposal.
Thank you very much for this kind comment, it makes me very happy, I am indeed thinking of a release on Steam a little later, but honestly the fear of failure slows me down a lot, in any case I will think about it. Thank you, and take care of yourself.
