OLL January Introduction - Welcome to 2018! - Updates & Animation Info! (Super Late)

Hey Guys! I hope you're all doing well! 

-**Please read if you've got time**-

I would firstly like to apologise for being so late with this month's schedule. If you're curious as to 'why' I was so late, you can find out more on that later on this post. 

As a way to say 'sorry for the wait' I've attached a ".package" to following links which feature the requested animation set for the "Mirror" (which utilises the "Closet" animations which Special Supporters have) so that you guys have an addition sex location/aninamtion:

$10 Tier Patrons (+Additional Non-Animated Penis MIRROR Animation): [https://www.patreon.com/posts/16519399/]

$5 Tier Patrons (+Additional Non-Animated Penis MIRROR Animation): [https://www.patreon.com/posts/16519445/]

This post will be shortly followed with this month's official animation schedule which can be found here:  [https://www.patreon.com/posts/16518471/]

Animated Penis/Tongue Rigs (& FUTA-SUPPORT)

Patreons of TURBODRIVER who have downloaded the latest WickedWhims update will not require any additional mods for the penis to be animated in their game.

However, I'm not sure whether (at the time of this post) the freely available version WickedWhims will allow Sims in-game to have animated penises.

If you have the free version of WickedWhims make sure to download a free mod which allows for the penis to become animated: https://www.loverslab.com/files/file/4632-improved-male-rig-with-penis-bones-updated-17112017/

In addition, if you want to have the penis mesh I use in my previews you should still download that mod as TURBODRIVER no longer supports that mesh.

I did not use the tongue mesh in any of my animations for this month because I am waiting for a mod which will make the tongue be on a Sim be default. I don't like the idea of it being an additional accessory, so I'm going to wait for that change before I work on such animations.

Futa Support:

*spoiler* :P

A few patrons have been asking for Futa animations (though I don't use futa-rigs) and so I thought, in order to cater for the needs of people who would like for example breast movement on the dominating female-sim and penis/testicle movement on the receiving make sim ; I would include something i'd like to call "FUTA-SUPPORT" which made it so some animations would cater to this need.

BUT PLEASE NOTE: 

This take so much longer to accomplish, as I'm practically doing same animations over and over while trying to make sure they work for several rigs no-matter which position/role they are in/are.

In addition, this will NOT be practical for all animations but I will make sure to specify which animations have it on the monthly 'animation schedule' posts.

 Types of Animations  

Seeing as this is the first official OLL climax sequence set for the animated penis rig, I thought I would focus on using the most common sex location (the double bed). As time goes on, I will make sure to add more unique locations like I did for the non-animated rig packs.

This month's animations feature genre's from rough, passionate, hardcore and enticing. Many animations also utilise:

• Object animations (Bed Movement)
• Breast animations
• Testicle animations
• Changing speeds
• Varying facial expressions

 Taking Animation Requests 

On the topic of taking requests, I think I'm going to wait until I fully familiarise myself with using the animated rig and I've tested it's limits before I take on requests. I also think, that this month proved that, I've got to work on my animation creation speed a bit more with these rigs, as these animations took a lot more time to make. (Especially with the added "FUTA-SUPPORT". - Read above^) But don't worry, - I'm a quick study.

Why I was so late with releases:

Sorry to anyone who was concerned about the lack of posts. 

This month was crazy and as you guys know we've entered the New Year and a lot of us were with our families (with me included). Also at the beginning of the New Year there are exams, IRL stuff such as an IRL job and many other commitments.

There was no way I was not going to supply the animations BUT I just knew that I was going to be later than usual.

In addition to all the New Year craziness, I decided that I wanted to incorporate FUTA-SUPPORT which was extending my animation time a lot more than expected. But I thought, that in the long run you guys would appreciate it.

The main take away is that I made a promise to myself to not release half-baked animations to you guys no matter how long it was to take me and to always deliver what is 'my best' at the time. 

And with that said I want to say a ...

HUGE THANK YOU!

to those of you who stuck by me and waited patiently : ) 

I'm sure you'll love this month's animations and I hope that you don't have to wait this long in future #fingerscrossed.

p.s. - happy new year! :3
