she had her big scenes two updates ago. She'll still have some content as in the resolution(?) of the Elena fiasco if you went that way. We'll get more of Erynn, Val (I think), Cara/Nikki. Those should be the bigger ones. Maybe some others show up for a short scene. Oh of course and the resolution of the cliffhanger. Next update is back to school so I'd imagine we'll get some very interesting Layla/Elena content there.Sounds like theres not much layla next update
Pound for pound Nyx beats DPC I'd imagine. I haven't done the math, but she isn't bogged down with minigames, freeroams, 60 fps animations etc., so we get a higher number of meaningful renders instead. I much prefer this.holy shit 7000 renders I did not expect that looks like devs are competing for who can do the most renders in a single update this year
I did the Maths at the start of the year in an off-topic thread. As we don't have render numbers for eps 8, 9 and 10 for this game it did require some guesswork:Pound for pound Nyx beats DPC I'd imagine.

So if we assume a rising scale from the 1000 for ep 7 to 3500 for ep 11 she probably averaged 2500 for those 4 eps so 10k altogether, while in the longer timeframe (6 months longer) DPC had three full 5k eps + interlude (less than 1k renders for interlude) and Digi B has 3 updates of 5k in a slightly longer time (3 months longer). Part time dev certainly appears to be outworking the full time devs with better rigs.

That's why I give more props to Nyx. One pc and a full time job, while homie looks to enhance beer bottles in order to inflate the development.Pound for pound Nyx beats DPC I'd imagine.

Over 7k renders! Damn Nyx has been working hard on this. As much as I would love to see this release next month, I wouldn't blame her if she decides to take a break over Christmas and release it in the new year.View attachment 4272158

Finished the last Alexis scene for this update, also finished the first of the 2 scenes for Layla. Only 2 scenes left to do. Both scenes will be very short and I expect to finish all scenes/renders this week. I might have to redo a few, but I know more once I start with the post-render work. There are a few scenes I want to "redo" or rather improve but I'll leave that for another time.
Once all renders are done, I start with the post-render process. Meaning fixing some inconsistencies like clothes that are clipping into the skin, lighting,...
The total renders (Everything included) is over 7000. So, I don't know how long that will take me.
At the same time, I will start coding everything, there's a lot of script and with all the different paths, it will also take some time. Adding some sound files, main menu song,...
Then there's the spelling check, also correcting some mistakes in previous episodes. And testing all the routes, of course. Still quite some stuff to do.
About the remake of episode 3. I'm not completely done yet with that and I'm not sure if I'm able to finish before I'm done with episode 13. Episode 3 consists of 2 days, so I'll probably only add the first day since that one is finished. The second day will be for the next update.
Once I have a better idea of how long it will take to finish everything, I'll give an ETA. The only thing I'll say is it will be released before GTA 6!
I'm sure we'll get it before Christmas. Nyx' a maniac.Over 7k renders! Damn Nyx has been working hard on this. As much as I would love to see this release next month, I wouldn't blame her if she decides to take a break over Christmas and release it in the new year.
depends how much post work needs to be done on the renders. I'd imagine if they mostly came out well then we will have it this year. It's still a lot of images to sort through, so could go either way. I wouldn't mind an update around the holidays.Over 7k renders! Damn Nyx has been working hard on this.

So around 2600 renders per ep, not far from my guess of 2500 render average and pushes her closer to the numbers of the fulltime devs with better rigs.of course we do, the images are in the game folderFrom episode 8:
EP8: 3518
EP9: 2034

thanks for the reminder when I redo and actually organize them this time I need to make a spreadsheet of my choices lolI am TERRIFIED the remake of Ch3 means the saves will no longer work.
It takes almost 30 mins to ctrl-skip the game start to finish for a single route, and it's quite easy to screw a route with a single wrong choice. And I just did it for the last update![]()
Layla is gonna have one scene for when you are on her path and a (presumably shorter)scene for when you are fucking asshole and breaks her heart(also known as Elena path), obviously you won't be able to see both scenes with the same save.Sounds like theres not much layla next update
Twice the size of the biggest episode is indeed really good.of course we do, the images are in the game folderFrom episode 8:

let's hope not.thanks for the reminder when I redo and actually organize them this time I need to make a spreadsheet of my choices lol
oh I mean im re doing my saves no matter what not if they breaklet's hope not.
i'm sure of that.oh I mean im re doing my saves no matter what not if they break
even still I don't think animations will be alot , this isn't a fuck fest game so while there will be probably a decent amount of animations and sex across all paths I don't think it will take to much away from that 7k total.7k renders sounds like a lot but doesn't nyx do animations differently than other devs, so I think animations are counted in those 7k renders. So people shouldn't expect a super long update of actually 7k renders if this is the case and I remembered right.
nah, animations are actually pretty meh in this one, vast majority of those 7k are still renders. But there is a lot of branching, so if you don't play certain paths or you messed up somewhere, you can easily miss out on half of them or more. Always been like that. Need several saves to see them all.7k renders sounds like a lot but doesn't nyx do animations differently than other devs, so I think animations are counted in those 7k renders.

When i get the update i'll probably pickup my main save and a few others... but the fact that she keeps adding to early portions of the game kinda gives incentive to go back and redo everything.oh I mean im re doing my saves no matter what not if they break
Yup, it will require multiple go arounds, day 1 has an Erynn version and a Val version... if neither girl is around it probably goes really fast.nah, animations are actually pretty meh in this one, vast majority of those 7k are still renders.

I can't even pretend to be mad at the thought of having to play through this game again a bunch of times. Especially like you said, the possibility of seeing an updated scene or even catching something I may have missed the first time on that path.When i get the update i'll probably pickup my main save and a few others... but the fact that she keeps adding to early portions of the game kinda gives incentive to go back and redo everything.
Maybe a different strategy is in order... something like leaving a save at the moment the game switches from remade stuff to old stuff, at least until all old gets remade.

Day 2 and 3 same thing, Nikki version or Cara version(or neither), Alexis version or Layla version(and an extra Layla but on a Elena route), if neither sister is active i suspect it will also go really fucking fast.
Plus a bonus Erynn scene and a leading into next episode scene(another cliffhanger?)
