Next patch and future plans
🕑 Added 2017-03-07 18:08:55 +0000 UTC Hi guys
Sorry for the delayed post, RL got in the way.
Well in the next patch, this weekend, I'll be releasing part 2 of the Dana weekend.
Since I'm already a day behind, I don't know how much time I'll have for anything else. So I'll probably be remaking and replacing old renders with the rest of my time. I'll be able to tell you more on that in a progress update, 2 days from now.
More plans:
Since some of you are still having trouble with saves, I've decided to bite the bullet. I've tried to avoid this, but it seems inevitable.
I'll be looking on remaking all the old code to fix all of the issues we've encountered.
A fried of mine, who's a professional programmer ( I'm not :P ) will be coming this weekend to my place, and we will be going over the code together.
He'll be helping me out with fixing all the issues. Depending on what he says, there may not be a Dreaming of Dana patch next week. He told me that a week may not be enough time to go trough everything. I'll report to you the situation as soon as I know more.
He'll be doing most of the coding, and I'll just be helping him out ( and trying to learn of course). This means that I'll have quite a bit of time on my hands.
So, if there isn't a Dana patch next week ,I'll be releasing the first part of my side project. I did some work on it, but it doesn't have a name yet. Just SIDEPROJECT1.
A couple of notes on it.
1) The scenes will be rendered in full. No more foreground and background.
2) And the aim of it, aside from touching on a few things you guys have asked me to, is to allow me to play with a different kind of story telling. So, you'll be playing multiple characters, jumping from one to the other, and seeing the events from different points of view. Trying to get a little of that rashomon effect going :P.
That's pretty much it for now, I'll be posting a progress report in a couple of days.
As always, I thank you all for your support
Ptolemy
PS: On the bug reports that some of you have sent me, since they are not game breaking, I'll be including the fixes in this weekend's patch.
