Development update
Added 2022-04-06 13:15:30 +0000 UTCHello everyone, welcome to the weekly public update.
I hope you've all enjoyed Christmas Eva MZ - if you haven't yet, go and take a look at it now! It showcases some of the things you can look forward to seeing in Missy MZ. Work on that is now well underway, and many maps and events have already been converted successfully. I can now go to school and run around the yard before anything goes wrong!
Above is one of the first re-renders, Missy's mirror and wardrobe images have been modernised with lighting improvements so that together with their larger size, hopefully these should look substantially better than the previous versions.
I've also trialled a new technique for the duplicate images involving making large areas of the duplicated picture transparent then overlaying it on a full image. This is common practice among RPGM Devs, but will pay especially large dividends with Missy given the size of the images I'm now working with.
I have done 20 renders to remake the wardrobe and mirror scenes, and overall, they take up less space than the 20 much smaller pictures I created before. This will help keep the file size bloat down quite a bit and give me more wiggle-room in future for making images with multiple clothing and/or underwear options.
Keep an eye on my Deviantart, as these decidedly SFW pictures have, as you know, racier alternatives that I'll post there as I begin unveiling more of my improved artwork.
Remember also that I have a Discord server where you can keep up with the latest updates, see some lovely artwork posted by other members, and generally chat all things Missy. If you've not joined us yet, come and say hi.
Until next week!
Trinian
