Progress 19.09.2025 and Changelog for ToaM 0.49.0
🕑 Added 2025-09-19 15:52:52 +0000 UTCHello all!
Well, that took some time... rendering was done on Tuesday, builds were done on Wednesday and been uploading since... Yeah. But as I said on discord, because this update was late for unplanned reasons all patrons get it as soon as I get the details hammered out. Beyond that?
I started rendering update 0.50.0 on Tuesday, so obviously, starting two days later means I'm behind where I would want to be. But it is what it is. Render count-wise, I'm relatively close to where I should be, but that isn't what matters; it's the script. Ah well, I'll know on Monday how it looks like.
Writing? I... let's say decided how the final scenes go. Some people are grouped up when it makes sense, like the Nagas. Still lots of scenes to do as usual when it comes to epilogues. But overall I'm happy with the writing. So then, no preview since it would be rather hefty spoilers of what would happen in 0.49.0, sort of. So, something else with a bit of rambling before the good stuff.
The hunters, the Inquisition, and the church. I get asked this occasionally. They are and they aren't the same at the same time. It was said during Sorcerer that the left hand doesn't know what the right hand does. That is accurate and yet a simplification. Officially, neither the Inquisition nor the hunters exists. Unofficially, they still do "God's work" and are under the higher circles of the church, or churches since about every religion has them one way or the other. Not all hunters are part of the Inquisition, though. There are several "private" organisations that get used by the inquisition especially in the areas they aren't either welcome or don't have the manpower. And this leads to a clash within the church. The left hand, I titled it as "mercy work," which is basically the aid work that church has done (and still does) globally. Then there is the right hand, the "enforcers". Take the orphanage where Alexander grew up as an example, despite the nuns (and religious sisters) wearing a nuns habit they are from multiple faiths since the effort to protect the innocent is universal concept. To the inquisition that place is affront, and if they could they would wipe it out from the face of the Earth. That was one of the reasons why Maria was/is stationed to the orphanage, other similar orphanages have other protectors. But that only takes care of the ones who are in sanctuaries, there are other sisters (and brothers) of faith who act like the hunters do, but not to kill the supernatural beings, but to protect... some of them anyway. And bringing the orphans to the orphanage. And those sisters of faith (don't have notes with me so I forgot the order name) do clash with the hunters and inquisition regularly. Usually those encounters ends up with no survivors on one of the sides... And no, you don't know anyone from that image.... Anyway to the important stuff.

The black guy in that render looks like Shemar Moore who stars in tv series S.W.A.T. Thank You.
