🕑 Added 2021-04-09 18:49:59 +0000 UTCWhat’s been done?
BenX
- Major doll and scene system
- Finished the new lust system
- Repostion a bunch of stuff
- Recoded the clothing exceptions for the wardrobe to be more dynamic
- Tweaked combat some more
- Squashed a metric fuckton of issues
- Scream at Renpy
- Followed by screaming at my dumb self
Keeping it short this time as we are VERY close to finishing the test build and I should really be working right now.. Also, say hi to my cat Harry ^^. I made him a little spot on the desk so he can sleep next to me (and sometimes on top of me, making it harder to work T.T)
BenX
We decided to group certain parts of Shar’s doll together, making it easier for Newman to export and also cause less repositioning in the future. But since I’ve been renaming every doll (and scene) image to be more consistent and human (as the clothes filenames were being shown in the wardrobe). That would have meant renaming 166 files.. AGAIN, as Newman tends to tweak a lot of things. It’s not always 166 of course, but it does add up in the long run.
So instead, I decided to make a new system for both dolls and scenes. Something that will use the file name but allow for custom names to be shown in the game (and dev tools). This did however mean that I had to replace all the current doll and scene image names with their original names and also write down a line of code for each and every image. Basically, hardcoding them. However, I’m using define for this instead of default, meaning that when I change them, they’ll automatically update when you load a save so it’s a lot more save friendly ^^.
Except, when a variable gets placed into a list, it’s a copy.. So if I change the original, sadly.. This copy doesn’t change with it.. Which meant I had to change the way the doll parts are stored for the doll. Now instead of storing the variable, it instead stores the variable name (which should ever change) and thus saves are a lot.. Safer.. From now on ^^.
It was A LOT of work and I would’ve liked to push it onto 0.06 instead, but since this literally breaks the saves several times over, I thought it’d be best to delay the build a bit since the saves are borked already and way instead of breaking the saves AGAIN in 0.06 xD
What’s next?
BenX
- Finish adding all repeatable scenes
- Deleting some more issues from existence
Ecchi Sensei
- More optimization!
XIX
- Redo the entire UI for 1080p
- Add some new stuffs
Not too much changed here, but I’m hoping that I can soon focus on Ecchi Sensei again. BenX has eaten most of my time and energy.. And being in the final stretch for so long is also starting to break me.. While I would like to take a break after the test build.. I sadly have other projects to work on.. So I will be focusing on ES again after the test build, but hopefully with a lot less stress since BenX isn’t on my mind anymore 24/7 ^^... I’ll also be doing some more XIX after I get more assets from Muplur =3
Might also do another stream soon since I got my stupid and pointless Leap Motion, so I can get Gwen's arms and hands to move xD
See you when the test build is done,
A sizzling Akanoes (cause burnouts are hot T.T)
