Case Log 3.48
🕑 Added 2023-12-03 21:21:06 +0000 UTCAside from the goofy case log number (I just couldn't say that we are halfway through. I do believe that after this coming weekend we will be past the halfway mark as I have 4 days of full rendering planned.) Once I finish scene 7 and take a bite out of 8, the next chapter will be looking pretty solid. I also took some criticism to heart regarding the pacing of the project. I've been adding some "moments" while coding and adding images to give it a little fuller bouquet (fuck I'm fancy!). It's not empty-calories writing just to extend the clicking time (That was a no-no as I started this project. Respect the reader. Don't make them click through dialogue that no TV show, movie or novel would ever include.)
So first the week in review. I've done some writing, but mostly punching up the current chapter, not so much chapter 4, which is something that I'd like to do in the next few days. The render count is up to 384 total for the Chapter. I think it's a solid number for 1/3 of the chapter. Most of it I'm very happy with. There is a scene with Josephine that I think will blow your socks off (there is such an easy rephrasing of those words that would also describe said scene:-) I'm coding chapter 4, which is along with 7, 8, & 9 the biggest scene and it is almost done.
What I would love to accomplish this update:
1) Player cards that you can access during game play to refresh your memory about who you are talking to. I think this is necessary despite the recap at the top of the chapter. Once we get into chapter 6 and on, it will become hard to remember who is who...I think. And it's a nice extra. The coding of this idea is another story:-) It really shouldn't be that hard.
2) A gallery (this one I started looking into last update, but didn't quite get there.)
3) A Music player or playlist, so you can pick what is playing. This comes with my interest in broadening the scope of the music. Personally, I never have the audio on when I read an AVN, but that doesn't seem true for the majority of the AVN crowd. I am researching music subscriptions that are AVN friendly AND have the noir/jazz feel in the library. Eventually, I will add some sound effects, but they will probably only be for the sex scenes.
4) Animations for the "Sherlock Moments". I had this idea (stolen straight from Guy Richie's Sherlock movies:-) that I would add some crash zooms and whips onto what MC is talking about while in the Sherlock mode, but I couldn't get the camera to do exactly what I wanted it to do in the time I wanted to spend on it. Well, I have done some research and I think I can make that happen fairly easily, but I think this is still wish list and not absolutely necessary. It also won't break any saves...I think. While the other three might. So I'm invested in putting Pecker PI through some lasting changes, that I have been wanting to explore for the next update.
5) Better animations over all. I purchased "Limb Stick" which should in theory make the animations less rigid. I will try it out as I get closer to being done with the stills renders.
This a lot to read with no reward of sex at the end, but since you made it this far. I am committed to making the best (in my view) AVN I can. This does require some real investment in time. I'm willing to do that and I am hoping you are along for the ride!
PS Maybe I should have called this 3.5, no way I will have more to say at any point during dev of chapter 3.
