It's always hard to see prior to a full res render. With the help of Esteban (FuckOMatic dev mentioned in previous post), who has answered all my stupid questions, I now have the beginning of a fair grasp. I will never say I can't learn more because there are always ways to improve. But right now, I feel pretty good, and I will try not to second guess myself too much. What I hope to accomplish in the next two days is to finish the animations. The setup is really what takes a massive amount of time, so I will find maybe 3 different angles on each setup that are nice and enhance the moment. It is one of the things that I felt secondary when I started Pecker PI, but I understand now that these scenes should have some weight and be presented in a way that enhances the experience. So, I'm hoping to get through 1 scene today, maybe start on the second. Each will probably have 9 animations (3 set-ups each). I was going to do some kissing animations, and as I mentioned before, some expressions, but I will focus on the big stuff and then probably move on so I can release this chapter. Funny how the to-do list doesn't get any shorter;-)
I had a bit of a moment today (never a good thing with me). I was working on the animation setup, and I was really focused on the motion. Finally, I had an initial motion that looked good...but wait a minute. Why is the MC looking so small. Turns out that I reset all the morphs for Pecker while starting the process and now closer to a finished set up than to the beginning, I have a basic genesis 8 figure doing all the heavy lifting. Fortunately, I hadn't gone crazy with the morphs for Pecker (about 35 changes), so I decided that rather than starting the animation setup all over, I'd just dial in the morphs. A little time consuming, but better for my mental health:-)
I'm finished with the music, so next in coding will be some fixes and beginning coding chapter 5. Again, animations will be focus for now. Once that is done, it shouldn't be too time consuming to get the chapter on its feet.
My friend The Red Myst just released chapter 6 of New Antioch, which I think is well worth a look.
Now I will continue the work to finish up the chapter.
Cheers!

Yesβ¦ Always ways to improve, Pocket! "Oh yeah, those scenes are important!" 9 animations, 3 set up each π!!! "Funny how the to-do list doesn't get any shorter ;-)" Nahβ¦ that list never doesβ¦ even after you finish the releaseβ¦ you get a breather (for a bit), and THEN it's straight back into it π . Good catch, brother! 35 changes (that's not a lot to you π )! Nice on coding the music ππ»! I'm already affiliated with The Red Myst (I'm a free member π). Thanks for the update, Pocket! Stay safe, stay blessed, and in PERFECT health, everyone! Have an amazing and beautiful week! I'll catch you allβON THE NEXT ONE βπ»π!!!
