Summer update
🕑 Added 2019-08-22 17:37:01 +0000 UTCHi, my awesome supporters!
It has been a while since the last update, so it's time to talk about what's in the pipe for the near and not-so near future! Summer is almost over, which means less being outdoors and enjoying the sun (no, I am not one of these stereotypical basement-dwelling coders that do not know what a "sun" is!), and more coding!
First, DD 4.3 for Skyrim is complete. The last bugfixes have been added, and the new version is ready to go out of the door! I will try to snatch a LL moderator to give me temporary control over the DDI thread, so I can release the new DDI and DDX versions. In case you didn't follow the DD development thread on LL, here are some of the highlights of the new version:
- ~140 new rope restraints in four color variants (natural brown rope, red, white and black), so we can bring Shibari fun to Skyrim!
- several new gags and collars
- 4 new bound animations for the petsuit
- and of course lots and lots of code improvements and bugfixes!
After release of DD 4.3, I want to take my attention to the DD furniture component for a bit. As you might have noticed, development of this one has not been going as fast as we wanted. The codebase is ready for release, and has been for a while, but making furniture models took a greater strain on the team than anticipated. There definitely were some burn-out effects in the team! Truth be told, we don't have nearly as many furniture devices completed as we planned, but I still want to release the DD furniture mod with what we got in the near future. It might not be as comprehensive as we wanted, but there are a few devices in there that should at least give DD mods a few options to include a bit of furniture fun in their works.
After this, it's back to Deviously Cursed Loot for me! There are two areas of the mod I want to work on for the next larger update. The first one is adding more features to the Dominant Follower feature (XDFF). In particular, I plan to add customizable dialogue to give your dominant companion more depth and life, and I want to add a system that allows your master to send you on errands and give you tasks to complete.
I also want to put some more work in the prison feature, particularly around making prison days more interesting by adding more tasks and randomize them, so you don't have to complete the exact same tasks every day. The arrest dialog is still missing some vanilla features, such as the thief-guild option, I want to replicate.
As usual, no ETA for any of this, except the release of DD 4.3, which I hope to get out of the door as soon as I can get hold of a moderator to give me write access to the DDI thread.
I hope you had a great summer and lots of (bound) fun!

Hard to say at this point. I might have a smaller update ready sooner rather than later, but work on DDC took a but longer than anticipated.

quick question Kimy are you hoping to get the next DCL out before years end or will it be sometime into the new year?

Sir Crazy

I am seriously looking forward to a bunch of shibari fun :D
Oh, absolutely! The "big thing" is still in the works, it's just that the problem with big things is that they are big! :D
jcdragon
so it sounds like any cursed loot update will be a ways off yet then; ok new game time :) on a serious note Kimy how is the whole Sasha revamp and the new large quest area coming along? that still something in the works?
