New status and teaser

Spoiler: The Journey Chapter 2 teaser

This week, Sylvia stops by to say hello and help me with the status update.

Number, so I had an ok week. I was hoping for a stronger week, but some tech issues had other plans. I lost all the work I did on Saturday this week, and it had to be redone and re-rendered. Not happy about that, but it is what it is. With that said, I completed 73 renders and 1 animation. This brings the total count to 767 renders and 4 animations. I did a quick check, and I have approximately 12 more scenes to render, 5 large scenes, and the rest are mid-size to small. Still a ways to go, and with a holiday coming up this week, I may lose a day or two of render time.

Side projects: Nothing to take up time for a while, so it is full focus on the update.

Personal stuff: Things are a mess here. I might lose power here and there, so the animations I was planning to run this week may have to wait until next week. Animations take me 8-14 hours each, so I have to plan to run them at the right time, or I lose everything.

Not much else I can share at the moment, so bye for now.

Just out of curiosity because I don't really know much about the game development side, but I do know a bit about Daz, do you not render your animations as an image series? I know it adds the extra step to compile into video afterwards but I always saw the benefit of being able to restart the render from the last completed frame, in case of a power failure or PC crash as being worth it.

I did that for the animations in chapter 1 of my first game (The List). It looked horrible, so now I render them as an animation in Daz.
