Fortnightly Progress - 23rd July (Patreon)

• No Haven 

Would have liked to have get the update out on around now. However it's now looking to be by the end of the month if all goes well. 

One thing I ended up doing extra is because of needing to implement that demi-angel harpy unique I mentioned last time I ended up needing to make it so that demi-angels, fallen, and succubi can now come in harpy variations. That's purely through the generator so won't be playable outside of them taking over the encampment for now. I've also changed how these heritage ones work compared to normal so rather than being those races with a bit of extra flavour they're more primarily the various different harpies with the other races added on top. This also means that these bird-ladies will potentially be crazy stacked in terms of starting traits as they'll get most (but not all) of the basic trait packages for both races.

While I was also there I rebalanced the odds of what heritage a demi-angels, fallen, or succubi will be. Neko, Draenei, Elves, and Lamia varients are now more common than they were before, Humans are slightly less common, while Felborn and the rest are about the same.

Other than that today did the lore pages for three different new uniques obtainable from one of the new assignments. Man that thing has got a lot of text not even counting those lore pages as it is.  Can't believe I used to just do a sentence or two for each result :D

• The No Haven Conversion 

Breakthrough. Fantastic, wonderful breakthrough. Monday stream was great basically. 

The idea I'd been doing with the identing regular expressions paid off nicely at last. Discovered a bunch of broken conditions which had been messing things up and was able to fix them. Went though a couple of hundred timers-to-passages and most of them all look completely spot on and ready to go so that's just wonderful. 

• The Wiki

Yes, there is one if you weren't aware, and you can find it here if you didn't know about it before. 

It's been getting some love recently thanks to Malcarther who has done a great job putting together and adding new resources for both the Racials and Aspects. I was able to get in contact with the original administrator and now both me and Malcarther are now also admins on there. So I can now also add others as is needed.  

(I did mention this on the last Q&A on the tumblr/twitter but I figure a decent percentage of you just read these, and so thought it was worth mentioning again)

• Commissions 

May+June Commission Poll: Lesbian Training is going to be a far, far bigger piece than I thought it might be when I envisioned the setup where I thought poses could be re-used more than turned out to be the case. Probably biggest one so far and that include's the True Angel one. Fully arranged and will be started in approximately two months. 

Next Awasof one: Arranged this and you should be seeing it around the end of July-ish.  

Next Otto one: Figured I'd take them up on another quickie. Not sure yet when this is happening, but it is happening, and will be sorting an assignment I've been stuck on for ages in terms of what to do with the art.

Next Eladaer one: Is going to be a previously done one with a big new detail which I'm very much looking forward to as the succubus pally and the title demi-angel's mounts could do with some competition. 

Third Thornspire Alteration: Posted the second Moonlight variation yesterday on the patreon and will be posting it to the twitter/pixiv/tumblr later today. There's going to be another variation starting later this month.  

Yep, healing is still a landslide. I'm thinking next alternate commission poll is going to be pretty much a re-run to give the others a chance as apparently none of them were beating that kitsune option. 

As you can likely tell by that this section being pretty much been a repeat of last fortnight's we're in a bit of dormant period of inactivity where after a bunch came out now there's not much going on as I wait for a bunch of new stuff to start. 

However there has been some art action, but not art for the games...

• New Emojis and Picarto

Man that last Felox commission really paid off in a bunch of ways. It was great in of itself, got me some more attention on twitter/pixiv, and more relevently it got liked by an emotes artist with commissions available. I figured it couldn't hurt asking. I'd been hoping to get at least a couple done for aaages with a hard rocking Metal Mimi throwing the horns being wanted especially. 

Very pleased with how this has gone so far. So much so that I've already got a second one done from them with Mimi doing an ahegao/very lewd expression. They do solid work with so much character, they're reasonably quick, they're reliable, and best of all they're very affordable so I'm sure I'll be getting some more from them. This is even better to me, as last time I tried an artist specializing in emotes was charging multitudes more, and then got sniffy too about using the picarto mascot and so not being able to own the character for their own purposes. No issues of that here thankfully. 

I've also added both of them on the discord which seems to have gone over well with them getting some usage. 

Because of this I've now enabled subscriptions on Picarto, as that's the only way Picarto will let you have access to them on there. I'm sure I'll use them myself enough anyway if that doesn't sound interesting to you :)

First one is on twitter if you want to check it out, the new one I've posted in the picarto chat today, and I'll likely be posting it also later today when the artist puts up their version.   

• A New HMV 

Done some more on this. Having to mainly put it on hold due to the update needing to defintiely be out before the end of the month. Still reckon there's an off chance that you'll get the patreon post draft version before the next one of these. 

As always I hope that was worth the read, and thanks again for your support!
