Fortnightly Progress - 3rd October (Patreon)

Okay so well aware that this hotfix dragging on is increasingly not ideal so this is what I'm going to do about it. 

Hotfix asap. 

Then by the end of October there has to the follow up update. I've kept certain patrons waiting way too long for things I've committed to and that update will be prioritising that content. One thing that has not helped was I took a bit of a scatter-shot approach to the update and hotfix where I was tackling a bunch of different things at once. For the next update I'm going to be starting and ending one thing before moving onto another, and if that means that a couple of the assignments to go with commissions like Glimpse of Paradise have to slip to the following update than so be it. 

The main thing regrettably being shelved though for 0.88 is enchanting. With the conversion still progressing well I don't think it's the best of ideas to do such another big chunk of mostly entirely new content add l like I did with the very time consuming new aspects.  Ditto the opportunity improvements I've done for this hotfix. What with I'd then have to do a lot of all that work all over again to get it into twine. So while I'm also working on the conversion the plan is to work on less far reaching content like new assignments and other more minor touch ups like adding the magic options to full custom which was voted on last time. 

• No Haven

Two assignments down and two to finish off. Reckon I've got about 2-3 full days of work not counting testing to get it all done. 

I am happy though that the two assignment done are I think pretty good stuff and seriously expansive in scope.

The vignettes from Price of Freedom return for Behind the Green Wooden door with three each for the intros unique to the five regions it can appear in. There's also a bunch of different wounding/removal outcomes which again are appropriate to the region. While Vicarage Tarts not only has three goals with it's own set of results. In maybe not the most wisest of moves given the amount of work it created I've made it a not slave capture only assignment. I've noticed that generally people don't like pure capture based assignments as it rather locks a lot of the game when you have a full pit. Did mean though that as the critical result can get you two slaves I needed a critical result for getting both, getting one, getting none and then multiply that by three for each goal. 

Personally I do really like some of these results so I hope it was worth it when you get to play them yourself. 

• The No Haven Conversion

Some very very cool news worked out last Wednesday on the stream.  Mentioned this in the fortnightly a month back:

Leaving that aside I am making decent headway through the conditions. 37,217 done and only 12,402 of them to go! Yes, really. So very glad I'm not doing this all manually like I did with WR.  

Turned out I'd got it down to under 2,000 which... well hell it certainly surprised me :D

The conversion work continues apace on the wednesday streams. 

• Commissions

Next commission poll will be up over the weekend. 

July+August - Deep Mountains Slave Caravan, Watchtower, and Fake Herald of Paradise: 

Fake Herald of Paradise is done and Slave Caravan is confirmed still for November.

Watchtower I've seen a sketch and should be out sometime this month.

September -  Nymph and Wood Elf: The crushing victors is already fully confirmed with an artist lined up. They're aiming to get me the first sketch for mid-late October. This will have a version with and without a cock which is something I'd like to do going forward so I can have an option in game eventually to have a reduced/no presence at all for futanari. 

Bonus Commission - Oozes: There was some slippage due to uncontrollable factors for the artist. Seen some sketches and I'm sure you'll see this reasonably soon.  

Bonus Commission - Halt Cathayan Caravan: The other of the patron funded me managed commissions got done and will be included in the hotfix. 

Bonus Commission - Raid Travellers Inn: Very surprised by the reception this one got. Was a bit of a spur of the moment one that I wasn't that sure about so I'm pleased that it went over better than I expected. 

• Q&A #100

Yeah, it's just a number but hey the tumblr still exists and it's been there now racking these up for quite a few years so I would like to do something for that. When the hotfix is out I'm going to be re-posting some collected highlights for being amusing/interesting/outright silly along with the usual questions that need answering. 

• Picarto

All of these will be at the usual time of 22:30 BST outside of the odd occasional one where I need to catch up and so start an hour earlier or change the planned day. 

As the hotfix coming out it imminent I'll mainly need to be testing. I don't find testing generally works on stream as some people are just there for the HMVs which have to be at a reduced size. It's also awkward needing so much screen space along with what I need to manage the stream. So from now on if I'm at the testing stage I'll do some extra conversion streams instead and do the testing offline.
