Behind the Boobs - Bountiful Harvest 0.2 WIP
Hey all, we're busily working on the next update to Bountiful Harvest, but in the meantime, here is a WIP of one of the animations with some extra bits of behind the scene info with both the game and the animation tactics in use.
Hope you enjoy!

Bravo 👏🏼
Thanks man, glad you enjoyed it.
Since Bountiful Harvest v0.2 is coming out at the end of the month, what do you have planned for September?
I am pleased to hear you are excited for the month ahead but for right now we're focused on the extraordinary amount of work going into the BH update. We'll let everyone know soon.
Well, since we all know now one of the reasons, why the Lady choosed the lord - will he have a cameo VA in one of the games? ;-) And thank you for the insight of you work/art!
Very kind, thank you! I actually have played a number of characters in our library of content... Most relevant for the upcoming release I played the original H'var (before his... misadventures...) but also played the guy in Dating Rules and Spelling B.E.E. We are adding a little voice to this new addition of Bountiful Harvest, (though not full VO) which will feature (among others) both the lady and myself voicing various characters.
More of a general question with new update will we need to start fresh or can we continue from a previous save?
Given the scope of the updates its going to need to be a fresh start for everyone I'm afraid.
When will there be a release date?
BEGrove said "the end of the calendar month". So it's likely going to be released sometime next week.
Wooooo. Yeaaa baby that's what I'm talking about!
Nice animations can't wait to see it done when can we expect the new update?
My guess is sometime by next Saturday.
Super informative and great to watch! Love the technical and artistic sides of it all.
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed both sides.
That was an interesting WIP close-up. Since I’ve started using Blender a bit more myself, I find it extremely interesting. I’d love to know which Blender extensions you’re using (Jiggle, etc.). Right now, I’m working in Blender on modeling my own creations in addition to the imported DAZ figure, as well as environments. However, it’s still in the very early stages. I used Marvelous Designer during the trial phase. I’m not sure if it’s worth subscribing, but when I look at the rigid simulation behavior of DForce and general clothing... what’s your experience with it? Oh, and speaking of computers: How many devices do you use for all this work? I’m currently using a desktop PC and a laptop, but considering my output, I’m seriously thinking about getting a new PC after filing (and paying) my taxes. :(
I don't use any extensions in Blender, just the included cloth physics. Mostly because I do all the animation in Daz (like a chump). From experience in Daz, Blender and Marvellous cloth simulations I would vote Marvellous as the best and versatile, but in many situations they're comparable. In terms of computers, we have 4 dedicated renderers, and my main computer also pitches in every time we hit deadline. Probably more than the PCs, the GPUs matter, wherein we're running 2 x 3090 RTX, 2 x 3090 Ti RTX and 2 x 4090 RTX. All desktop editions. It's really the only way I can pump out 60+ scenes, a month (which I definitely needed for last month's animation). I'd wager our electricity bill is akin to a bit coin miner, which is depressing on a couple of levels.
I was hoping to see a transformation with this character
What sort of transformation (beyond the butt growth) were you hoping for?
Oh nice, new character growth. Loving the work and ideas being brought into the game.
Indeed! There will be a few of these.
