[WIP] Early March Update

• Render Issues

I had a lot of rendering issues this month, since updating to the new DAZ Studio. From parts of the environment stretching through the walls of Nina's room, to the entire outside streets losing their shading and textures.

With this update, I was also struggling with render times. The sauna set was slow to render because of the fog, mist and volumetric clouds. But some of the renders of Nina in their room were rendering over 1 and a half days. Usually my renders...

I'm just gonna write from the heart on this one.

tl;dr

• NOT QUITTING, GIVE ME TIM...
