Version 0.14 Changes

Build notes for version 0.14:

New Content and Changes:

Focus  on backyard, pool, and hot tub.  Moved the pool behind Ariane's house and making it a public pool.  This required a few changes to game play, along with adding more instances of player clothes changing.

Built or repurposed new sets for backyard, pool area, picnic area, and used the Hopepunk City hot tub.  started working on bedroom set to make a background to the hot tub scenes.

By default, if the player isn't already fully dressed at the end of the date, they put on their starting date clothes at the end of the date.  This has led to many abrupt clothing changes with no explanation, so I have been adding explanatory dialog saying the date is over before clothes get put back on, followed by the goodnight scene at the front door.  As there are over 100 possible endings, I have to do this a lot and test them somehow, so there are likely some that get missed along the way.

Updated Renders:

Using the new sets, I created new pictures set in the backyard, pool, and hot tub.  Telescope related pictures, Rebecca "Marco Polo", and  the fourth dinner, the backyard picnic is done, leaving only the fancy restaurant dinner left.

Completed updating the hot tub make out session, and if you play as a female you will see female arms and hands. 

Known issues:

Basketball shooting is misaligned, you will see white sections when you mouse over the places to shoot which don't match to where they should be. This will not get fixed until the park images get updated    Dress shop game images are misaligned.  Mousing over the image will reveal the 12 areas for you to click on, but they are not directly over the racks.

All non-updated sections will only show male body parts.  This includes Ariane imagining a three way with the player and Rebecca, even though the scene leading up to it has been updated. 

While I have been working on fixing places where the player character is wearing the wrong clothes, the complexity of the game means there are many places this hasn't been fixed yet.

Priorities for next update (not completed yet but will be done next):

Build and light more sets, the biggest need is Ariane's bedroom.  While the make out sequences on the couch and hot tub are largely left as is even with new renders, I want to expand the bedroom sex scenes mixing first party animations from Hopepunk City, and third party stills from Ariane in Paradise.  I'm using a weight mapped model for Ariane when she is nude, and that means a lot of adjustments to poses to get them to look right.

Once the bedroom pics are done, the only parts of the house needed to be redone are the garage and the front yard, which are small in number and only need new texturing and lighting. I hope to have that done by the next update.  Then the away from home sets (downtown, vista, lake, park, store, restaurant) will become the focus.

Progress so far: 785 of 1,266 images, not including new material.
