🗒️About the 0.1.2 update


As always, I want to dedicate the first lines to the patrons, this project could not continue without you. I know that the project has known F95zone <3 and that has aroused the interest of new visitors, I have visited F95zone more often than I would like to admit and that's where I could try exciting projects, so it is an honor to be part of the projects of this amazing community, long life to F95zone, and thank you very much to all new patrons ^^

Well, this version should have been released at the end of August, being this version one that would only include facial modifications, and having miscalculated the time it would cost me to add this feature, it has been delayed a lot, and in fact the facial modifications are not finished yet, I will talk more about the actions consequent to this at the end of the post.


🌌cosmos

The cosmos visuals have been redesigned and it is now clearer which parts are editable.

For facial customization I have tried to replicate what I think is the best character customization system; the CAS from the Sims 4, if you are familiar with this system you will see that it works in a very similar way.

Cosmos controls have been improved, and now when zooming the camera will move to the mouse position as in some photo editing or 3D software.

It feels a bit clunky yet, needs more work, but the improvement it's pretty noticeable.


🏃🏻‍♀️Performance

This update introduces many new facial modifiers, and this should affect the performance, however I have purchased Morph Tools, a plugin to make bakes of the meshes taking into account the current values of the morphs, in short: now it doesn't matter how many modifiers there are, because they will not affect the performance.

I have also optimized things in terms of how the game stores and applies the information related to the proportions, I have obtained the same result while I have freed a lot the animation blueprint and managed to make a system that allows me to expand infinite bone modifications at no additional cost (after performing the calculations to generate the data).

I have also created an optimized version of the physical asset and a script to switch between the detailed physical asset (used for sex scenes and cosmos) and the simple physical asset, the problem is that switching physical assets involves a series of relatively heavy processes, you may notice framerate drops, altrought in my case, testing the final version of 1.2 I didn't notice anything but who knows.

These optimizations are fundamental for the correct development of the project and to have this finalized so soon is good news 😁


🗝️Patreon key

There will no longer be two versions of TU project (patreon/free) now the game will allow you to enter a key that can be accessed by patrons of tier young taco or higher. The game will generate a unique key using a unique code related to the computer on which you play the game and the key itself, and stores the generated code in a file called "patreonKey.sav" this file theoretically only works on your computer and even if you migrate this to another computer would not work, so you would have to re-enter the key.

Thanks for the sugestion ;)


❇️Main menu

Now there's a main menu.

From here you can access to the game options, activate the version for patons or exit the game. 

🔮Reflection and future updates

It may seem like this update changes/adds little, but the optimizations have been tremendously difficult to implement and the facial customization is taking a lot more work than I initially thought it would. 

 Then how do you allow yourself to place easter eggs in the main menu? Sometimes things aren't just hard because they involve a lot of work, but they fail once, twice, three or dozens of times and it's hard to stay motivated, and sometimes disconnecting from these things and adding something that makes you or others laugh keeps you fresh. 

 Despite what has been said, and playing devil's advocate, it is true that in the end this is a game focused on sex, and not having added new interactions does not make me feel comfortable, that is why immediately after uploading this update I will start working on a quick update focused on new sexual interactions, and then I will start a new dynamic in which I prioritize sexual interactions, and only after finishing these I will start working on other features such as cosmos mode, scenarios, and other systems that are yet to come.

Damn, here's a summary

next update: 
- new sexual interactions

future updates:
- new sexual interactions
- things


🪳Bug fixes

  • GPU infinite usage at changing between profiles in cosmos mode
  • uploading a backup always activates the cosmos updater
  • sometimes hair don't change it's color in cosmos mode
  • player's character sometimes stuck at joining a sex session
  • sometimes the player's character stares at the camera when entering cosmos mode

Please if you found a new beautifull bug, feel free to report it through the bug reporting form.
