Progress 05.12.2025
Hello all!
I’m... let’s say I’m mostly happy with how things are going, but I am annoyed at how long it is taking. I had hoped that I would be done by now. And it isn’t like there are issues. I’ve sorted out most of my posing issues since I’ve figured out what works and what doesn’t work, for the most part anyway. Some random mesh deformation happens occasionally that needs to be fixed, but that is usually easy to fix. I’m around 2050 renders at the moment. And unfortunately I’m beyond the point where things would be easy to "split in two". Eh, I suppose it is a consequence of requiring to write and render interactions with thirty-plus characters. I just hope my brain doesn’t enter into crunch mode again.
Writing is going alright, page here and there, constantly progressing. Adding choices is a bit annoying since you are mostly dealing with people who you already know and potentially are in a relationship right from the start, so there is no need to add choices for them. There are choices related to the plot, but it is slightly too early for them to be that meaningful.
Anor and Sanya. It’s mostly the side characters now as most of the "main cast" is already done, except for one. Well, might give an idea how to do the epilogue in Sorcerer 2.
Hobbies. I’ve been meaning to do "what the characters do as a hobby"-renders ever since I did that one with Susan boxing. Just never got around to it, really. And was reminded of it since there were some talks about it. Among other things, Alexander plays the piano, and Mei likes to sing... And speaking of Mei...
I’ll post a zip file of the renders I’ve done thus far on Monday and attach it to Monday’s progress post for those of you who aren’t on Discord. Anyway, I hope you all have a great weekend! I’ll take a break soon (after I finish this portion of the renders) and continue rendering...

I know that in this specific post you have made it clear what the render count is currently for a specific scene, but may I ask what is the scene count as of right now. I’m only asking for clarification because a progress post or two ago you mentioned you were at the nine and a half marker.
I think that was when I was doing the scene with the orcs, which ended up being somewhere around 300 renders on it's own, and took most of the week -.- But that begin said, while it isn't exactly a good measurement because their length varies (and posing challenges are different), there is about 6ish scenes left. Unfortunately, there are two more challenging scenes left in that pile.
Looking great
Thank You Tal <3 :)))

Now that is a Mrs Santa Clause!
