v0.2.0 Progress Report #8

Hey everyone,

Time for another weekly progress report...

I didn't get too much done this week, besides the Bonus Special (go check it out if you haven't already, @Silver/Gold patrons). The render count for v0.2.0 is currently at ~940. 

(As an aside: when I give you these numbers, I usually talk about number of DAZ scenes created, not actually rendered and post-processed images. Since creating scenes is what eats up most of my time, this is the most meaningful number. Rendering the image takes a lot of time as well, but can be done without my input, aka over night. And post-processing takes usually only around 1-2 minutes per image.)

What I did do, was take a look at everything that still needs to be done for the next release, which is:

• Create ~150 render scenes in DAZ. Roughly 60 hours of work.

• Let the render queue do its job, and render the remaining ~250 renders. This will take 125-250 hours (runs in the background).

• Post-process ~300 images. Roughly 5 hours of work.

• Add sound and music. Roughly 15 hours of work.

• Testing, small changes to dialog, potentially redoing a handful of renders.

With all that I can finally give you a date: 🥳 v0.2.0 is set to be released on August 17th. 🥳

Also: I've decided to make the progress reports public from now on, to keep non-supporters up-to-date as well. Preview images will stay exclusive to patrons, though.

❤️ Thanks and enjoy your weekend! ❤️
