Amy's ride - a tech demo

Thank you for the kind words and the input on the slider.

Darkhound

Terrific interface. Adding a 0 fps option on the slider is an idea.

Thank you. Some scenes using this new interface will be part of the next update.

Darkhound

Incredible!! This will be amazing in game. Can't wait!!!

Hi, thanks for the comment. I don't think your concerns will really become an issue. It doesn't take longer to create the renders for the new interface compared to ceating a more tradional video. The start is always an image sequence, that has to be posed and rendered. I do it in 2560x1440 for the new controls instead of 1920x1080 for a more tranditional video. But that is just maybe about 20% render (machine) time, which is not the bottleneck. I'm also not talking about having animations everywhere in the game. The new controls are made to replace sex scene videos. No more, no less. There will prbably still be traditional videos every now and then, where it makes more sense. The story line is a completely different point for me. There have always been updates with more story line elements and ones with none at all. This won't change just because the "videos" are presented in a different way. Bouncing boobs is always a problem, because it's damn hard to make it look even remotedly natural. The main problem is you cannot really see the motion in the preview. You have to pose it and render it. Just to have the frustration to see that your half day work was all for the garbage can when you see it for the first time and it looks totally weired.

Thank you :) As for another tech demo, well as the name implies it's a demonstration of the technology, so there is no point in showing it agagin using another girl.

Darkhound

Thoroughly enjoyed. Alternative angle is absolutely great, too. cant wait to see it in the game... or maybe just another tech demo starring Ivy?

this is impressive, but I have a fear it could detract from the story line. This is your story to tell, and we're all really just along for the (very enjoyable) ride. After what you told me about how long it takes to do these renders I don't want to see you getting burnt out from the sheer volume of work this takes. I also remember what you said about how much work it would be just to animate Amy's boob bounce during volleyball. So far the story and image quality have been wonderful and beyond anything else I've seen on Patreon. Adding all this control could actually detract from the immersive quality of the game. Of course, this is just my opinion, and you know what they say about opinions.

Many thanks, you will get the first in game use with the next update :)

Darkhound

Many thanks. Just used it for the first game scene. I have to find a better way to show text during the animation, but the rest is working pretty well already.

Darkhound

Thank you so much. A lot of the animation improvements are related to the new PC hardware. It simply took too long to render in 2560x1440 and a higher frame count. It still takes long now, but it's at least possible :)

Darkhound

The first scene using this new tech has just been added to the game. It will be available for Heather in the next version :)

Darkhound

Thanks for the comment and for providing your opinion.

Darkhound

Thoroughly enjoyed. It was nice to have more than one angle. Great work and lookin' forward to more.

JDizz

Nice feature ! I hope it will be implemented in a not too far future :)

Monsieur X

Nice one. Beside its a short demo I enjoyed it very much. I have to say you really improved your animations. They are looking smoother and hotter with every update :)

Dispeace

Wow! This is really impressive! I'd love to see this make it into the game for some of those "special" scenes.

QUR0KED

Thumbs up. Love all the features, especially speed control. Hope to see pov angles along with the regular angles.

geos_omega

Thank you. There are a lot of reasons that it was a little quiet lately. I got a new PC which took some days to get it all running smoothly again. Then it's spring time, which means in general more time spent outside and less at the pc. And my regular work was really stressfull the last weeks, so I didn't have much time for anything else.

Darkhound

Glad to hear and happy you like it!

Darkhound

Good suggestion. We will disable the buttons that don't have any functionality before it's used in the game. Right now it's just a tech demo and too much stuff inside the code is still static (so hard coded). It will take some more work to make it "general usable".

Darkhound

Thanks!

Darkhound

Thank you for the comment. I love her too :)

Darkhound

Thank you :)

Darkhound

Haha - I knew someone just had to ask this. This is not a real time 3d software. It can only show what has been rendered before. Every new angle takes about 2 hours of render time and 1 hour of post work. So don't expect to see more than 2 for each scene like you have in the tech demo. What you suggest unfortunatley is not possible. What you see in the demo is as far as is possible with pre rendered stuff.

Darkhound

The hair movement only shows that I didn't pay attention when I did the second camera angle :) Since it's a tech demo, it decided not to sepnd another 2 hours fixing it and rendering it again. It's not a technical limitaion in any way.

Darkhound

I thought that we might be in for a nice surprise because things have been a little quiet lately. This is an awesome feature! I would love to see this added.

Steve Pran

Ok, I fixed my issues...and all I can say is ...LOVE...IT!!

Slack00

I agree with most of the other feedback presented here. It was very good. Excellent job! This should definitely be added to the game if possible. This may be asking too much, but I would love to be able to rotate the camera in addition to the other camera angles that were available. Like I wanted to be able to tip the camera up to look at her face, while zoomed in on the boobs. And also to see her boobs from below. :)

Mr. Phoenyxx

Enjoyed it. All functions worked correctly. Only problem I saw was her hair does weird things from the side angle. I know we all want hair and boobs to act normal during movements. The hair movement shows the limitations of the software. Small problem compared to this improvement to the game. Like it, good work!

crugh2112

Excellent work. It adds an extra level of interaction. I was briefly confused about the "focus on face, etc" until I realized it doesn't have any effect unless zoomed in. I would recommend disabling the "focus" buttons if we're zoomed all the way out. Other than this minor comment, this is a great addition.

Brianiac

Perfect

Hans Json Green

The work this took is impressive. Definitely looking forward to it if you include it.

Razlin 1981

Would love to see this implemented eventually! It's cool and hot. Also glad the tech demo was with Amy ;)

Jess Man

Many thanks. i was hoping it gets a good reception :)

Darkhound

Glad you like it, thanks for the comment.

Darkhound

Okay, thanks :)

Darkhound

Thank you very much buddy :) Really appreciate the comment.

Darkhound

Well this is amazing and should obviously be in the game going forward.

Koalaton

should be included

lp

This is genius. I love it

Elmandore

Wasn't sure I'd care that much but this is actually really cool.

The tech demo is not related to 01.5.2, but it took a lot of time to create and fine tune. That's one of the reasons progress on 01.5.2 is a bit slow.

Darkhound

Cool! I would love to play with the girls that way! :D Any progress on 1.52 (is it?) ;)
