Hi all!
There were some issues with our last build, so we've uploaded a patched version. You can find the release notes linked at the bottom.

Started out making a fox head. My aim is to make this one have even more tweaks and advanced rigging for face control then we've had before.
New for this head is that we will keep the noses as a separate part, doing away with low resolution noses that are modeled directly on the muzzles.

Hi all!
We hope you're doing well!
We're happy to present our newest release, which introduces the gynomorphic dragoness Lyra as well as a new 3D environment - Sky temple.
This release has been a big challenge for us because of all the refactoring required to get Sub-Surface Scattering into the app (SSS). Also, a bunch of seemingly random and unexpected obstacles got in our way. But we do what we always do - just work through it all!
Should derived characters be visible by default in the cloud?
Other news
New build is coming along. We're almost finished with the things we wanted to get in there for the month. Just a few more days!

If you only knew the amount of trouble we've had to go through to reach this stage! Getting SSS to play with all our systems and our pipeline has been a huge challenge, but we finally seem to have something that looks promising. This works with our texturing systems and we will implement more layers tailored for SSS to make configuring it a simple matter.
Here you can see what difference it makes to enable sub-surface scattering on a character.
This shader should come in handy for...

Hey everyone, new month and things are returning to normal for me here so I'm trying to get back on track with some new content and improvements for this months release.
First out is a second version of a digitigrade design that I think will fit scalies and dragons very well. Let's face it, our one and only scalie digitigrade design we've got now is sort of lackluster, I'll admit and it's time we should see some more options for our scalie characters.
Let me know what you think o...

Hi all!
We're happy to finally release this month's build of YL2 for our enthusiast tier patrons.
This release brings the long awaited cloud component for YL2, making it possible to browse and submit characters.
The cloud is still a work in progress, so more features are going to be implemented over time. There's a big risk of bugs still being present, so please keep that in mind! If you run into any issues, please make us aware by writing a post in our forum.
So with ...

Hello all, first if I'd like to disclose that this month has taken a big toll on me after a very close family members passing and there's lot of distress and paper handling atm.
There still will be some type of content that I've worked on since the very late period of April in for of a female athletic body type I've done looking at various references, our closest team members have all given their thumbs up on it and I hope that a lot of you will find enjoyment in creating characters wi...
Super quick update - the cloud is coming along, and I think you will like it a lot!
Most of the basic features are implemented, including character uploading, downloading, voting and commenting, but also a suggestion system. More features will be rolled out over time, but it's a good start!
We're gonna need another week to finalize and test things, but we should have a build out for you sometime next week.
Here are some captures I did some days ago on our private dev channel...

Hi all,
We hope you're staying safe in these trying times of global crisis.
This has been a very weird month for me (odes), and this will be a pretty weird post. But screw it!
I recently finished watching Beastars on Netflix, and to say it had an impact on me would be a monumental understatement. It caused me to have a complete emotional breakdown, making me question everything about myself and the decisions I've made in my life. It's weird, because up until watching it I fe...

Okay so we think this could work well after we've fixed eye and tongue errors. The mesh handles the deformation quite well and this should work for even more future variations.
We named the tweak shape "realistic" for now since we couldn't come up with a more proper name for it. You can view the attached video for better demonstration of the shape.
Early iteration of the bovine head, hopefully we can create a good yl2 version of Charlotte later with it. The ears are still quite rough, but we think they're getting there : 3

Hi all!
We're happy to finally release this month's build of YL2 for our enthusiast tier patrons.
Since I (odes) have been preoccupied working on the cloud implementation, this build has mostly been focused on new content and fixes. Hopefully, we should have an early version of the cloud ready for the next build!

Hi all!
We hope you're all doing well!
Just writing to let you know that the upcoming release is taking a bit longer than we anticipated. This is partly due to hitting some bumps along the road, but also because of the current world crisis that has cost us some time and energy in preparations.
The images are of the new dragon head and tweakables (+ parts). We've also implemented a new body type - male athletic.
This build will most likely be released tomorrow or Tuesda...

Just summarizing our thoughts on the previous poll.
From the looks of it, when combining the different options, the great majority would prefer to have up & downvotes for submissions, so we will go with that. However, while the individual choice for up & down votes for comments also has the majority, it is not as decisive as the one for submissions. (The combined votes is 45% for and 55% against up & down votes for comments.) Therefore, I don't...
2020-03-06 12:49:19 +0000 UTC View PostYou'll be able to both make comments on submissions as well as vote on things in the cloud.
How would you prefer this works?
We originally intended to have karma for everything, but maybe that will create toxic environment?
2020-02-20 20:57:58 +0000 UTC View PostHi all!
Hope you're doing great!
As you may know, we're in the process of implementing the new cloud for YL2. This new cloud will allow you to share and browse characters, very much similar to how interaction browsing works in Yiffalicious 1.
We know how much time and effort you spend on the characters you create, and in knowing this, we've hit somewhat of a dilemma -
How do we prevent theft among users, while still being a platform where people learn?

Hi all!
Just letting you know we're still here and the next release is coming along well. Hopefully, it'll arrive sometime next week.
This release focuses mostly on fixing issues (currently there are around 40 fixes), but it will also include some new features (part duplication and "instancing") and some new content (horse heads and feet).
Hope you all have a nice day!

Two weeks have passed since the initial alpha release of YL2, so we thought it would be a good time to reflect on that as well as share our plans for the future.

First of all - thanks to all of you who have chosen to be with us on this journey. It's a humbling experience seeing so many early adopters. We will give it our all to make YL2 the best it can possibly be!

2020-01-01 02:35:39 +0000 UTC View PostSo here we are again, at the end of a year.
Last year around this time, we were working our asses off trying to make a release happen. Needless to say, we couldn't make it that time. If someone had said it would take us a whole other year to get a build out, I wouldn't have believed it. A release felt so close, and yet it would prove to be so far away. I think this in part can be attributed to a monumental misjudgment of all the things needing to be done to actually tie everything toget...
