Exclusive Early Access for Top Patreon Supporters
Dear Patreons,
As we step into another exciting year, I'm thrilled to offer an exclusive early access to my latest plugin bundle, specially for my top Patreon supporters. This is a token of appreciation for your incredible support and contributions.
Distribution Process
I want to clarify the distribution process of my bundles, especially regarding tier qualifications. I've been refining this process to ensure fairness and exclusivity. Here's how it will work:
- First Phase: The bundle will initially be sent to the patron with the highest cumulative pledge.
- Sequential Distribution: Distribution will then proceed sequentially down the list, prioritizing higher pledge levels.
- $10 Level Release: Once I reach patrons at the $10 level, the bundle will come out of early access.
This approach ensures that our most dedicated supporters receive the earliest access as a thank you for their unwavering commitment.
Possibly as soon as tomorrow or the day following, I'm also excited to announce the release of Bundle 71, which will be available to all our new Gold tier patrons and above. Then you can start playing with the initial version of the procedural chains.
Year-End Update Overview
As the new year begins, I'm excited to roll out a transformative update to my plugin bundle, aimed at significantly enhancing the user experience and elevating performance. This update introduces refined user interfaces for intuitive interaction, robust enhancements for ironing out persistent bugs, and smarter resource management for increased efficiency. The plugins are now more realistic and customizable than ever.
A standout addition is the Object Explorer plugin, an essential tool that enables navigation, inspection, and management of objects in scenes functionalities not previously possible.
Thank you for your continued support. I'm eager to continue bringing innovation and advancements to your Virt-A-Mate experience throughout the year
