Callisto 0.3 - Week 11 Update

Added 2020-01-10 07:55:29 +0000 UTC

Unfortunately ran into a couple of snags this week relating to the final two Lia animations, which postponed other work. With these animations, I have been experimenting with animated surfaces. This was achieved via an external script, however Daz3D didn't handle rendering the image series particularly well. This meant that I had to create a separate file for each animation frame, which was a pain. Additionally, due to some shortcuts Daz used in emission temperature, the results were not as intended. I have since resolved these issues and am re-rendering the last of the Lia animations now.

To give you an idea of what is left, this is the list of items still to be resolved:

Renders:

- Liberation of Dione (60% remaining)

- Alice Backstory (40% remaining)

- Lia / Kara static renders (animations complete)

- Miscellaneous renders (low priority, just to flesh out environment)

Coding:

- Pretty much all of it, however it is pretty straight forward as it is more like story writing than coding (nothing complicated).

As a general note, I have been taking it fairly easy over the Christmas period, hence the relatively slow progress. This is also in part why I suspended billing last month. It is now time to put my head down and focus on work into the new year.

Thanks,

Xav
