Oh? You're Approaching Me?

batman's butler

I like the second one

Chiniao

1st one for me if it makes any difference now the second looks like shes going to break something.

Goose

Hurts my back to look at actually.

Adamas

Keep that furry shit outta this masterpiece.

Patrick Coleman

I do like the first pose more. It looks more natural. Thinking about this version seems uncomfortable.

Patrick Coleman

first one for sure, this one is nice, but the sheer angle her back is at is a little jarring

I think next girl should actually be a centaur.

David Bruce Clegg

First one. I think she looks like a centaur in option b.

bryan

First one is definitely better

Yes, I certainly won't delay the release to do anything complicated with this one, I was just getting a head start on feedback. ;)

Oni

I'll look into it. My current implementation might not work well if it is switching between the two, it's easy enough for me to hard lock one or the other into place, more complicated to make it something that can change on the fly.

Oni

I'd say I prefer the first version.

Ye I wouldn't mind a combo between the two honestly but can't wait for the release.

Jelly

how bout keeping both poses but have option B as her pose while she's cumming? as it looks like she's sorta arcing back and losing control

Simon

Hey ! Yeah I prefer the first one.

Hugo Frizon

1st one was that sauce

Vernon Banks

Thanks. I really don't mind picking one over the other, the work I needed to do to make the second version was fairly minor compared to the work I put into the overall project. I was just trying out options. It's not slowing anything up either, I'm working on other parts of the project as we speak.

Oni

We are all waiting for this update, and as for the version of the pose, you can just leave these poses and make a choice of the player with what he wants. I don't think that the work that you did should just be thrown in the trash because most of the audience just didn't like it but to make such a compromise. I hope you read this.

Old one for sure.

I guess it couldn't hurt, no guarantees I'd be able to get on it right away though. ;)

Oni

Well, there is some synergy intended, the idea that whichever stat you focus on, it tends to level up the rest eventually. The max you can get in one stat is 1000, and many of the checks require a combined total of 1500, 2000, even up to 3000 points, so just having one stat maxed is not "endgame." I might have some more ways to raise one stat or another on the *progression* to "I love you 3000," but that's about it.

Oni

Can I bring up a few clothing bugs here or should I wait until you release the next build to mention them?

hornguy6

Definitely the old one. New one makes her back look kinda broken

I overall prefer the older, though one suggestion could be to see how well the animation flows as a part of the bump and grind. As the one instance the second makes a bit more sense is if the secondary action was to be kissing her. Not that it makes sense to have a pose specifically for kissing in the pose.

Stavin

First one fo sho bro

Personally, I like the old one better, but this pose is okay too.

Badari Zsolt

Your computer issue could just be a bad stick of ram, had similar issues with my comp awhile back. That's what it turned out to be.

Marc A Carroll

Do...do you need help?

The Other, Other Beast

i think the first one is better

yeah the first one is better.

I'd have to go with the first pose

hmasterx

Unless Jean's secondary mutation is an L-shaped spine, I'd stick with the first one.

I've got to say I favour the first one, with the second her 'depth' to 'hight' seem to be doing realy odd things to her spine giving a kind of ⌁ shape rotated 45 degrees to the right with her feet are on the right, the spine seems to be oddly arching and be elongation and twisting in preportion to her body as a whole, then again it might just be the top of the pants, which seem to curve over the top of her ass, suggesting her back starts bellow the top of her exposed ass. The pose might work better for a kind of standing sex pose, but the top ass would need to be reworked to merge it with the back. But that just my opinion.

Thrans

After comparing both pictures, I think any weirdness in the pose actually comes from Jean's insistence that she hold her hair up while you rawdog her. I'm not saying you should change it, but man, Jean is really vain isn't she? Still trying to look good even when she's literally getting fucked :P On an unrelated note, would you consider re-balancing some of the stats for sex acts? Recently when trying to play through, I've been trying to max certain stats without maxing others. E.g. Love without increasing obedience or inhibition, inhib and obedience without increasing love, that kind of thing. And my experience has been that unless you're actively getting negative stat changes (like making her pay for everything on dates) it's almost impossible to stop *everything* from going up regularly. Would you consider at some point tweaking it a bit so everything doesn't end up maxed basically by default?

hornguy6

Not sure if this makes sense but the angle of her spine in this one makes her ass seem disconnected/far away from the rest of her body, hence the centaur appearance. My vote would be to straighten out the spine and combine this angle with the earlier one

DanRadcliffe

That's maybe the problem, but like I said above, the reasons why "overheating" seems like an odd fit to me is, 1. it ran for a full nine months between "weird phases" at one point, 2. it has shut down when the room was very chilled and stayed up when the room was quite warm, 3. It's shut down when it was basically idling and had nothing going on while it has stayed active when the CPU and GPU were both sweating, I get that internal parts can just get hot for no apparent reason, it just seems weird to me. I did clean the fans and such the last time it was acting up, but it didn't *stop* acting up until a week or two after that.

Oni

But it's canon!

Oni

I might give that a try, but I think weird things might happen if I tried that. Rotating things in Renpy can be a pain in the ass and I took the "quick and dirty" approach on this one, so it doesn't smoothly transition between the two states. I might consider it thoguh and give it some work when I have the time.

Oni

Should consider looking into the power supply, overheating, or perhaps you've got a virus of some sort? Another possibility is that your hard drive might be ready to give up the ghost, might want to think about getting an external hard drive to back up your system in the event the worst comes to pass. As for the pose, I do think the first one looks more natural, BUT, that second one could work if you had an option to pull back on her hair while having sex in this pose, would require redrawing her hair a bit and adding a hand/bit of arm, but it would explain why she's not standing in a more natural way. Looking forward to the update Oni, and best of luck getting those PC issues squared away!

Shin Gouki

+1 on that

The Other, Other Beast

personally i think that the first pose looks more natural. The second just looks a bit off.

M

If your computer is constantly restarting for seemingly no reason, then it's probably overheating. That it stopped for a while then started back up would support this, as primary hardware failure rarely stops occurring for such a long period without reoccurring. You can probably fix it, at least short term, by just cleaning out your computer's chassis and all of its air intakes with a can of compressed air. Source: Am a systems admin.

Ben

i looked at both and the prev. one looks far more natural, the 2nd looks to far vertical, as for the pants, my brain was huh, then relize oh , we haven't seen the cargo with this angle. maybe a back pocket could fix the weird almost skin look to it.

philip brown

Dude, please change color of the pants a bit. It looks like a part of her skin and kreeps me out.

At first I was like "what's with wrong with her ass ?" and then I realized it's the cargo jeans lol

Anthony Michelli

I agree with what most people are saying, both are very well done. My personal preference is the first pose. Maybe you should make a poll? Probably be easier for you to keep track of what people prefer.

Tassadar Talimar

The first seems more natural looking to me but folks seem to like the second too. Maybe you could incorporate both by having different situations for each? The first looks like she is bending further forward whereas the second seems more like she is arching her back more towards the player.

Jaylien

The breasts are identical in both, the angle of the torso has just been changed a little. So you won't see more or less of the breasts in either.

Jaylien

Both look good, however I prefer the second.

I also prefer the first version.

Tyler

I just glad to see you online again, bro

Oni's Fan

Id say whichever gives us more side boob, but they both are the same so I vote B.

mugatu

Id probably would go for the 3080 since its most likely to be worth it in a long run.

The torso itself is the same in both pictures. All I did was use Renpy to rotate the top half slightly in the second, and then slightly redrew the bottom of her torso so that it would fit that way. Everything above her ribs is identical.

Oni

My main concern with the original was proportions to me seemed off I wouldn't mind being able to see her breast like someone prior proposed but hey I don't mind either one.

Jelly

You mean the one above? Those are her pants.

Oni

I don't think it's that, because it runs a random amount of time, sometimes only a few hours, more often a couple days, and there seems to be no pattern to it. It happens when the computer is completely idling, or when it's doing something, but can also *not* happen when my computer is chugging on all cylinders, so it's not some "redline" issue. It also just freezes everything up, and one time froze and then sat that way for around six hours before I came in and rebooted it, so it wasn't anything that was causing immediate harm or physically shutting it down, it just basically had a stroke. :/

Oni

Honestly I love the 2nd version because you could probably make it so you could see one off her tits, which would be amazing but that's being greedy because it's already awesome that you're allowing us different viewing positions on all girls, but I also would go with the 1st version just, ONLY, because the hand is floating below the menu, both are great but I mainly like how she's grabbing her hair all crazy so try not to get the menu bar in the way off it, as my main point XD

Nightless

Both options look great. I like the new version personally, as the top half of her grabbing her hair seems more natural, but again, both are good!

JRT

I definitely think the first version looks more natural. Hopefully you can figure out your computer issues soon!

Jim Bob

This version looks better but her back is kinda "wrong". You can kinda immagine her being a centaur

Keep up with the good work ! :) But indeed I prefer the previous version of the pose.

My vote's for the earlier version, her back seems like it shouldn't be able to go straight up that suddenly so she kind of looks like a centaur :P. Also in the first version, turning her head to a full profile is more natural since her head isn't also tilted back, versus this version she's titling her head back and to the side at the same time, which is less natural. Either way, thanks for the update :)

New pose is better ish? Compared to older one but still needs little tweak in my opinion but good job so far and take your time

That Thot Sleepy Cloud

I prefer the original posture. It suits her better.

Roadman

The previous version of the pose looked more natural. Best of luck with the computer issue, I had one similar some years ago but it was time to update my rig anyways so never figured out the cause.

TCoffin

Both are OK as far as the pose is concerned.

ThL

I had something like that happen with my old PC, I found that my power supply was not good enough to run everything I had in the PC and it started to turn off after an hour or 2, and would give me the blue screen when it restarted itself

SpartanRaven246

I hope that the PC will be going really well again soon, thanks for the update.
