Weekly Progress 22-02-2021
🕑 Added 2021-02-22 18:44:38 +0000 UTCAfter implementing the bug tracking feature, it was a lot easier to track bugs even the ones that people didn’t report. So far I fixed:
- Crash at Grimshear's gate when entering the area in princess dress(thanks to a user feedback)
- Crash when pressing confirm button in character panel when a skill is selected
- Wrong cutscene triggering when player enters secret tunnel from forest(soldier encounter before shaman boss fight)
- I also added an alternative scenario in case the player walks back to the secret tunnel entrance after sacrificing Adrey in the soldier encounter, triggering the cutscene that shows the player downstairs to avoid crash because Adrey is already dead.
- Fixed some animations playing for just one frame in scripted AI scenes(like Gomrak)
But there are also some problems, like crash in combat, or random crash in forest while gathering, which seems related to cutscenes but also looks like cutscenes aren't active at the time. I can’t trigger both of these, so if anyone is willing to share some details, here or on Discord, I’d appreciate it.
I made changes to Dianna’s dialogue lines. When I first added those dialogues, I couldn’t focus on each character separately so results weren’t really satisfying. For better results, I implemented a branch tracking system, which tracks and saves which branch of the dialogue player activated before, then decides which branches will be activated. Which means, to be able to talk about certain things, you might need to acquire more information about it first.
Latest release took more than 3 weeks, since I added/changed a lot of things 3 weeks were barely enough. This time we’ll be away from home for a while so I don’t plan to work on technical stuff, instead I’ll mostly focus on the new content. I already added mining and wood cutting with placeholder sprites, since I plan to use it for the upcoming quest line. Aside from the new content, I want to fix the current bugs. We’ll also start adding character portraits in dialogues with this update.
Hey there, it’s Shyseel. This update I decided to renovate Diana’s assets such as idle and combat. They were almost two years old and i’m really satisfied with how she looks right now. I also started working on her character portrait. I really enjoy making these detailed pieces!
This update I will focus on the Icy fang (Diana’s group). I will work on renovating their campsite and their sprites as much as possible before this update. I also can’t wait to see the relationships between Leana and Icy Fang. As you’ve seen from the last bounty added to the game (Missing Person) you can hire Ryle to help you on the mission. After this update I hope that their combat animations will feel much more smoother and you will be hiring other members at some point as well.
We'll add pickaxe and axe for mining and wood cutting later.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: I plan to open polls here instead of Discord, with options like A,B,C and explanation of those options can be seen from the Subscribestar page or Discord server. I was thinking about this for a while, since Discord emoji locker bot can’t prevent others from clicking on the given emoji. On the other hand, I’m thinking about making Patreon NSFW and keeping Subscribestar as a backup, which would allow me to open polls directly here. I’ll still continue releasing SFW and NSFW versions separately, what do you think?
