Weekly Progress Report
🕑 Added 2024-07-11 23:32:36 +0000 UTCHey everyone, time for an update!
TLDR:
Still working on the Lois Griffin update. Programming is all done, just need to finish the art and graphics.
The Griffin Home will be explorable in the next release.
I'm also started making slight updates to the main (player) character model.
LOIS GRIFFIN
If you remember from some of my previous posts (Here, Here and Here), you would know that I've already started a lot of the work for Lois Griffin, from her character model to her house model.
As a matter of fact, you all probably know that you can go talk to her for a bit currently in the latest release.
However, there is still a lot of work to be done. Her character model needs a bit of work to allow for the proper animations, as I'm really trying to push the standard again for the H-Scenes.
You can see the progress of the H-Scenes on the characters themselves. Helen Parr was using a real-time animation, since I hoped to let you (the player) control the camera. I didn't end up doing that because I ran out of time, but the real-time animation stayed. I decided not to fix it anyway, since Helen/Mrs Incredible will need her model updated as well. Soon.
The second was Dexter's Mom. I'm fairly happy with it, but again, do expect some updates before I allow you to "revisit" scenes in the future. This was the second set of H-Scenes and it was definitely a step up from Helen Parr.
The third was Sarah Bellum. Her character model was definitely better, and easier to work with compared to Dexter's Mom. Still, I can see areas where I would like to improve upon.
This brings me to Lois. I haven't succeeded in the bar quality that I would like, but hopefully Lois takes me one step closer. This means everything from a more detailed character rig, to more and better quality blendshapes from different faces to anatomy fixes when the character is bent in difficult positions.
THE GRIFFIN HOME
The Griffin home will be enterable in this next release. It won't be every room - but definitely the main living room and kitchen, which are very iconic and would be fun to be able to walk around in.
This will also be an area where you get to interact with Lois.
Since this home is already designed, its a lot easier to build since I don't have to make any design decisions.
THE MAIN CHARACTER (PLAYER) MODEL
It may seem like wasted energy, since you guys are here to see the Milfs. However, the main character is getting an update as well. These are slight updates, but ones that are necessary for future releases that contain character customization.
Also, the penis needs to be more "attached" as it currently looks a bit more like a dildo attachment.
This was a model that I bought off an asset store and resculpted a bit for a more unique look, but there are still things about the model I would love to change.
CONCLUSION
That's all I have for you, really. I'm just keeping my head down and trying to develop as fast as I can. I said from the start that this release was a test to see how quickly I can get a character in without worrying about bugs or trying to fit in another major feature, and so far I've succeeded in keeping focused.
THANK YOU once again. I know you believe in this project as much as I do, and your support and conversations and Ideas are HUGE contributions. I am grateful.
PS> I'll have NSFW Work-In-Progress images soon.
