Back in September I decided to split the whole Grassmere story in two so this release will not take forever, and most renders and videos are ready, so coding starts in january.
Ideally I wanted to start coding early december, but due to the software limitations of Daz, rendering the Feast, with 13 characters on screen most times, has taken forever, but it’s done. The wh...

Hi theres!
These past weeks I recoded the ground part of freeroam code of this update 'cause its really complex, and was not doing the job, but now looks like running much better so I can just focus on scenes and the emergent writing.
I also coded a (toggeable) automatic system that shows when the game is checking Stats, Paths, and People's Path (in a cool and non invasive way) so t...

Hi theres! I've been back to coding (and making a pair of missing animations) after my short hiatus to put things on places. Things were indeed put in places.
For sure September to December are the most complicated months for a single father single-handly doings loads of stuff, but well, while every year is the same and is not surprising, it is always frustating not having time to reach e...

Hi there!
My plan was to render some 0.30 while I work on my other job the first weeks of december after 0.25 release, as I need to put a pair of products on sale for the jolly consumist festivities asap. (as you know I've been focusing mostly on BFL for the last 5 months, so it is time to focus there too).
But in the last day...

And with the previous and these spoiler pics, all the protagonists of this little update are revealed. (well little, more than 400 renders and still going up...). I guess we could call this the first "Slice of Life" update.
Chop chop, lots of coding to do!
pic: 0.25
Devlog delayed a bit 'cause I don't really have much to say besides I'm rendering anims and coding every day really.
I guess in the end the number of render of scenes have blown out in number beyond my expectations but taking into account that I'm diligently coding them, everything is not taking much extra time. And all extra renders just meant more or better content, So ...

Well! Grassmere came out in time and had quick a nice welcome.
Due to all the accumulated days (Since mid August when I released 0.21) of adapting the engine to new systems and certain third party problems, the full 0.25 Nobles And Plebe update won't make it inside this month (as would be foreseable), but I don't think it will take mu...

Not much to say as I'm coding coding coding to have 0.24 ready this month, but we can recap Math:
Renders on Grassmere: 270 or so -I Still need 50-100 more, but scenes are ready, so they'll be coming steady as I need to code them.
All important scenes are coded on Grassmere. Only some freeroam-recurrent scenes needed yet, and also the changes on Penketh (that are mostly code and dia...

As you know by the >Changelog< this is a Long Testing Version from the new Engine version until 0.25 (that as planned will come before ideally before November).
0.21 is Basically, the first 10 days of code of 0.25 (without new scene content), fixing all the engine changes,...
Both render and code keep progressing well so it's time to make an anouncement; This month, as a pre 0.25 release, 0.24, will hit Closed Beta.
0.25 was going to be nicknamed “Nobles and Plebe”, so I guess 0.24 will include the Nobles part:
-Grassmere access (intro scenes, some freeroam, stuff)
-All code related to allowing Grassmere access on Chapter 1 an...

Well! That was an intense august.
I'm a bit delayed on renders due to all the 0.21 coding (amazing tech update), but as I already started coding 0.25 scenes 3 weeks earlier, everything will add up in the end.
On grassmere, free roam hubs are coded and some of the arrival scenes too!
Same goes for...
Just an end of summer treat, Our guests, the winners from last month poll, Penketh's Heart.
-Probably tomorrow 0.21.b will go to Field Leaders, looks like the Tech Update is quite in good shape.

Quick update just for not having you in the dark, ' cause I'm knees deep between finishing 0.21 bughunt and 0.25 renders. After these 3 slower weeks I knew I would had due to family, this is the progress:
0.21 (technical upgrades and lots of little bug fixing) is almost ready (making myself a last full run of the ...

-Progress on 0.25 fare well;
-I'm 160 still renders, 10 mini-animations, 5 long frame animations in, on Leffrin Village.
-Between Leffrin Village and Grassmere (for 0.25 and 0.30) I have 40 wordpages of dialogue ready (probably half I need). (Small talk is usually incorporated on coding, where most grammar issues lies xD)
So I'm a bit more advan...

I lied about the not making more long posts so soon x'D
But this one is only for those interested in my work procress.
For those or you are not, well, just saying progress goes well! 1/5 of graphics already done! (And 0.21 with fixes and improvements on its way) Also, TLDR: trying to not make the update too big.
So, as you know we're moving to finish chapter 2 and 3. While the main content for the next 3 updates is planned, side-content for chapter 2 side stories will need their place before we end the first of the two parts of the game. (meaning, progress o...

Second Edit:

-Beyond fixing reported bugs, while scouring well those old romances I solved lots of bugs here and there. Let's cross fingers this is the final release so I can focus on other things!

Since 20 days ago I'm back for good working on BFL every day. Today the closed beta 0.20.a has been released (available just right now at the Closed Beta chat in discord for Beta Knights+).
I've focused on making the release finally complete so I've not made promotional art and stuff... While we debug it there will be time, so I just leave here a quick summary of con...
2024-06-30 23:01:36 +0000 UTC View PostHi there. Some of you may ask yourselves why the silence since december.
I'm trying to fix a dire economic situation that showed up. I dind't say anything at first because I just wanted to solved it in silence, across some months, while maybe able to dedicate at least a week to BFL.
Well, how my mind works don't allow me to work at two different things at a time, I should have known...

Hi everyone!
Time flies a lot when you have a lot of stuff to do.

Release keep slowly coming.

So code is going!
Also kinda learnt Corel Video Studio to make the video anims these past weeks. As there is a lot of animations for 0.20, was some good shock therapy. (All ready)
Taking in consideration the hours than I can put daily and the ongoing house works, a pair of weeks ago I guess...
