Progress update #13 Final episode

Well, I come bearing good news.
Yesterday I finished the 5th LEWD scene of this last episode of The Entrepreneur.

I woke up feeling refreshed at 9 am and without even taking a breakfast I turned off the computer and starting working up until 1am.
Even ordered delivery food twice so I would stay focus as much as possible (felt guilty this morning though lol).
And I need to say it paid off.
I created 7 whole animations and 51 statics in just yesterday. I had already created 10 statics and 1 animation during the week, but this is nothing compared to yesterday's work.

I'm blown off by my own progress if I'm honest. Yes it took a toll on me, but it was worth it. It usually takes over a week to create a LEWD scene.

I rewarded myself this morning by sleeping in instead of waking up at 8 like I usually do.

I launched the 8th animation and added a couple of details such as breathing and camera movement which I was too tired to do yesterday, and that's good enough for the day as I need to head to work soon.

So happy with this.

So what's next? On to the 6th LEWD scene.
I have another day off on Tuesday which I will take advantage of.
Although, it is cooking day, laundry day and cleaning day, so I already know I won't fully create another LEWD scene in a day. But, starting it is good enough already.

And to be fair, Sundays hit differently than Tuesdays. Something about the calmness of the surroundings I guess.

Anyway, I also realized this morning that up until now I used scenes of the final episode as the image for the promotion of each progress updates, and that I was getting awfully closed to the last "in game" days of The Entrepreneur. I can't use those images as I could be revealing too much on the story maybe.

So yeah, you will enjoy renders of the early "in game" days of this last update from now on. Sorry if Valentine looks sad!

Next up, I need to address something that could be an issue.

As I told you in some previous updates, I'm concerned by the power of my rendering station. Back in France, it used to run 24/7. It wasn't in my bedroom so I could sleep peacefully and let it work.
Now, though, I can't leave it in the livingroom of my house as I live with housemates, and so it's in my bedroom. I can't leave it on as I'm sleeping because the noise is too much of a bother.
So usually, it runs around 17-18 hours a day, 7/7. It might not seem much of a difference, but 6 hours a day mean I lose a day of render every 4 days. On a month scale, it's a week. If I consider it takes around 2-3 weeks to completely render a LEWD scene, now you realize how bad that is.

I will of course try to find a solution, there's a couple that comes to mind already, one being to use my working station as a rendering station when I'm not using it (ex. going to work at the restaurant), but its rendering power is far less good, so I will need to be very selective in the choice of scenes I give it to work on as it needs to be light scenes.

So yeah, that's just to let you know of my concerns.

Other than that, I'm feeling good.
Happy to make progress, anxious about December which will be taxing on my energy and stress levels since I work in the service industry.

But we'll see how it goes.

So, numbers!

Animations: 44
Statics: 453
Dialogue: 810 lines

Anyway, that was it for this week's progress update.
I wish you all a great week, and I'll see you soon.
