THE INN - JANUARY 2024 DEVLOG 2
🕑 Added 2024-02-01 02:21:00 +0000 UTCWhat's up people?
Since I posted the previous devlog back on the 15th I have made some substantial progress on getting everything ready for the real meat of the update.
I have managed to port all the assets I need (over 1500 assets!) and recreated Linda's house's interior from scratch using them.
Recreating her house from the ground up was necessary for two reasons:
- The old assets used in chapter 1 were, well... Old. Most of them were actually vanilla assets from HS, and those didn't age well, boy... They sure didn't...
- I also meant to upgrade Linda's house with new interior cells like an attic and a basement to lay the groundwork for future events.
I also managed to make her house look more "lived in" by placing countless clutter and decor objects around the house.
I finished that last week and moved right into setting up the lighting for those interior cells, which was actually a way easier job then setting up the environment itself.
Only the guest and Linda's bedrooms are left to set up lighting and I should be done with them tomorrow. Then it's it's time for some proper Chapter 2 development!
Also, earlier this week Ren'Py finally got updated!
As I said in the last devlog, I was waiting for this udpate to re-release 0.09.02 with all the fixes and other stuff that came up since it was released.
I didn't have time to test it yet, but I'll do so next week and then make the re-release.
I don't have much to show for this devlog's previews, but you can check some screenshots I took while setting up the interior cells and the lighting in the official sneak-peek post.
Have fun!
