VN Ren'Py Long Road Home [v10 Part 4 Beta Update 2] [OBDGames]

[Dr. FuckFace]

Yeah... in the end, all Minions must die, from the lowest two prospects that MC tuned up in the Fox Box early on in Cali all the way through to Bob, Barb and Willie himself. They are all bad seed. Since the mayor and Bob's sister, the District Attorney, are neck deep in this shit, they are in need of disposal as well. Going to be a lot of deaths in the end... a whole lot of deaths.

Adventure ever on my friends and fellow fiends, Phat
!

Those prospects deserve it, but we should give a chance for the most of them. Step aside and survive, go with your club and...
District attorney would be the most stupid kill ever and and the mc just wont go there. More heat than most cartels could handle and why would we give the perfect ace in our pocket?
Smart plays my friend, smart plays. We should be with the project on our own terms and we can have those when the key players are on the Rogue pocket.

Bob first and the rest of them later!!!

 

[PapaPhat]

I still want the woman from the burger place but Twila is a good choice too.

Yeah... burger babe was hot, fun and flirty. I'd enjoy toasting her buns and flipping her patty.

Bob`s a serious problem right now.

I must agree, friend. Bob is bad news and will likely go down next. However, Bob never laid a hand on my Jessy. If MC is where he promised to be, when he promised to be there, instead of running off to fuck Nikki's girlfriend, then Jessy doesn't meet Bob. Nikki's girl Charli is cute but not cute enough to stand up my number one girl, Jessy.

Next update is likely the final episode in Act One. This the the finale event! However, I'm pretty sure that MC's story doesn't end here but will continue on in the next act. But, I am expecting a major blood bath accompanied by a fuck ton of celebratory fucking and partying!!!

Oh shit that sounds like OBD is planning to make another game after act 1 is finished...

I'm not sure why you thought it but, I don't have any other games in mind. Chapter two will be a continuation of the story. Chapter two will be stand alone to get the game download size down. The story and characters will carry over.

I'm shutting it down for tonight, but I wanted to share this render before I go to bed.



Hard times have befallen MC. He is working part time for Door Dash to make extra gas money...

Door Dash? Not my first thought at all...

In fact, I was having another one of those, "I'll be fucked if that doesn't look like an original Dave Mann masterpiece!" moments right there... Honestly brother, Dave Mann is smiling back at you from the afterlife... saying "Imitation being the most sincere form of flattery, I'm proud that you were paying attention to my work."

Have you ever thought about giving the player a little bit of choice on the bikes customization?
I understand if its too much work an love the bike renders<3 Apehangers, sissybar and the fishtail pipes work like a charm on the bike but personally i would go for little bit raised bars, tapered shorty`s and without the sissybar<3

I`m glad thou that its a old panhead and a not a new model, since it would tingle my wrench hand everytime i see it.
And i would totally rape it like i did with my bike, girl sits in the garage on parts since everytime im close to finishing it i get a new idea and start on the new build and it`s everytime stupider than the last.
Last one was a motoGP clutch that cost me WAY more than i should have payed for it and the next one is belt cover made off cnc milled glass for a showcase and epoxy one for riding.

To your question, no. You would have to have an interactive game to do something like that. How would I know what style bike you have chosen? If I had an assortment of bikes to choose from in the game, I'd have to render separate images for each style for every scene with a bike in it. It is doable, but not practical. It would be a huge time sucker.

For the Rogue's old school bikes, I've purchased three bike assets from the same vendor. (Pan, Shovel, Knuckle). I can mix and match parts between the bikes (mostly). But because you have parts to fit Ridged, swing arm and pro-street frames, I have to tinker with them to get everything to line up. While they are very realistic models, they are pretty old assets. If I render them straight of the box, they look shitty. I had to update the materials on every part on the bike down to the nuts and bolts to get them to render properly. Again, takes a lot of time to set them up. Once I have them the way I want, I save them. The whole process starts over if I make changes.

Most of the motorcycle assets you can find are cartoonish crap and don't have the ability for customization. (Minion's bikes.) The bastards don't deserve righteous sleds.

Yeah, i was mostly thinking about minor mods, like the ones i would do. I really dont have any idea how big of a work it would be since wrench and hammer are more my kind of tools than computers.
Results would be minor, not sure if many of players really care about those little things that much so i already assumed its too little for too much of a work.

I understand that im not getting those mods i would want and since the bike is more og this way, i dont mind.
But i have a suggestion!!

Those 2 prospects from minions would look great on scooters or like kids dirt bikes.
Cheap chinese crap offcourse and maybe even just 1 for both of them. Eye patch guy has a issues on seeing depth so thats a great reason for him sitting sissy, both of them should have moto gp leather`s on them too to be safe.

You obviously don't understand how much extra work your suggestion would entail so think with me here for a moment, friend...

Elvira (MC's bike) appears in many shots throughout the course of this AVN. IDK how many exactly but it's a lot, let's say 100 for the sake of a ballpark estimate... Adding even one option the player can select changes the render total required from 100 to 200... Adding two options makes it 400 total renders, i.e. 100 original renders, 100 option A, 100 option B and 100 more for those choosing option A and B. The numbers would expand geometrically from there as more options are added to account for every possible combination of options. I'm not about to do all that math for a simple forum post but it gets totally out of hand with the quickness, e.g. just one option doubles OBD's workload, two options multiplies the workload by four and at three options the workload becomes around ten fold to account for all options. I would much rather have Dima's choices for Elvira and be playing the next update sooner rather than once every six months or longer.

This is the same idea behind the limited number of choices the player has throughout the rest of the game as well. Dima had originally wanted to give the player more good guy/bad guy choices throughout the entire story until he saw how the workload expands with every choice offered. It's the same principle as the bike options except on a much larger scale. Dima has been a machine putting out such massive, content rich updates about every 3 months. He's more productive as a solo dev than many team devs I know. He truly is a machine when it comes to production. In the end, it's his story to tell and I, for one, am enjoying the hell out of that story. I hope you are as well, my friend.

Adventure ever on, Phat

PS... You had said, "And i would totally rape it like i did with my bike." I hope that was a simple typo. We all speak and practice typo here. Hahaha However, if it wasn't a typo... we rake our bikes, not rape them. Two examples of a raked front end in LRH are both Sluggo's and Willow's bikes. They both have an extended rake to the forks. MC's bike is a bobber with no real rake at all, just the traditional spring loaded bobber forks. Peace

Yeah, i thought so since this render stuff is a form of wizardry to me.
Understood fully how many renders you need and how the amount multiples, just dont have any idea what it takes to make the modifications on the renders XD
Like if it would be really simple and you could modify 100 renders in 15min, then imo it would be a great option and issue would be mostly space oriented, and that could be solved by sticking on your mods and downloading a specific game file.

But like you said, i really have no idea My best buddies since childhood are architect and AI programmer, both of them have two right feet and thumbless hands (figure of speech) so i have outsourced all my computer wizardry needs on them for regular professional Joe stuff. My knowledge starts from nerds are wizards and ends in yeas, they are wizards.

Architect one just recently made me take like 500 pictures from a renovating project with my phone, i really thought he`s just fucking with me, but after a few days he showed me 3d model and blueprints with freaking exact measures.
If thats not magic then what is?




No. it was not.
Think about the guy you would keep away of your classic with a shotgun.
That`s me.
And no, i`m not touching any classic with intend anymore, never again. So many nightmares even after just moving a few engine mounts.



Did you btw know that the holy trinity is between V2, V8 and pussy?
When you have these, everyday is joyful ride.

I've seen the process of making these renders and it still eludes me! I agree... wizards and digital sorcerers, every one of them! My experience is in music and sales professionally and more music, archery and blade combat personally in the real world. I also play a fuck ton of games. Disabilities forced me to retire over a decade ago so I play more games than ever now. That has led me to help some dear friends with game mods and some games themselves. Most recently I have been helping a friend to find music for his latest project. I've also provided tons of play testing, technical expertise and a shit ton of research to help my friends in the modding community make cool mods...

Popped my support cherry on this game and never looked back. The improvement from episode 1 to now is night and day. What's funny is the story, has me hooked and the ladies are the frosting on the cake. Think about it, I can blow a guys head off for pissing me off, leave and pick up my girl and take her to a titty bar. Which she enjoys as much as me.

Never push OBD, just enjoy the ride!

P.S. For all you Katy worshippers, what's her opinion about the Fox Box?
