Is the linked Itch Version not supported?
I'd prefer purchasing on Itch or GOG rather than Steam, I rarely use my Steam and Epic accounts nowadays

Where do you get this bizarre notion that the human eye can't see past 14 fps? I can definitely tell the difference between 60 and 144. 14 look choppy.

This is an old study for the film industry that was done 40 years ago, if not more. And how are you going to distinguish between 60 fps and 144 fps video? I heard this several times from different people, they claimed that they could also distinguish FPS, but when it came to a dispute, everyone lost money. If you want to participate in such a dispute, then I would not advise you. A 14fps video will only be choppy if it has been compressed. For example: You can make a 60fps video and compress to 15 or make a 240fps video and compress to 60 in both these cases the video will be choppy.

SG was simply removed from Itch a while back, no idea if it will ever be back.

Are there any statistics on the popularity of certain LIs? It can be assumed that the top 3 is Bella, Nami and Sasha. But what about the rest?

I suggest you meet with someone who owns 144Hz monitor and ask them to show you this website on their monitor (of cource if they set it up properly and id actually uses 144Hz)

you'll be surprised. most people would see the difference between 30vs60 and few less would notice difference 60vs144, but it is noticable if you spot it

I think there is some confusion, the study says that the human eye can process up to 16 individual images per second, that if you exceed that number you start to perceive movement.
It also talks about the standard filming (24 fps for film and 30 for digital) and talks about light intervals to establish how much the human eye is capable of.
There is a lot of new research that talks about how the higher the refresh rate and fps, the greater the advantage.

The point is the animations are extra renders, and if there are 310 renders in the cue, and 450 still being positioned and shot, Ocean isn't doing nothing, Ocean is working on the scenes yet to be made. That is the creative part, positioning the models, setting the light sources etc. SOme scenes are bigger or more critical than others, and Ocean might spend longer on lighting. It's none of my business how long Ocean takes to be happy with a scene before it's ready to render.

What animation are you talking about? Ocean wrote that he made animation a long time ago. Here are his words I quote: "SG has 310 renders left in the queue, and I'd say around 450 renders are left to set up for the update to finish. (Chapter 5.)" Ocean wrote that he set up 30 renders a day. In a month and a half, he could make not only the promised 450 renders, but 3 times more. But he didn't make them. You again pass off your fantasies as reality, but why? Ocean himself refutes your words.

Damn what a shame, Thanks

I don't know if it's for the same reason, but some time ago Itch started to put "weird" conditions to certain AVN developers, payment and charging conditions that forced the developer to have his own payment processing.

under what conditions will they see it 30 and 60fps? If the movie is on, they won't notice the difference. If there are images of very fast objects, for example: an arrow flying in real time ... then in this case you can still see the difference, and then depending on what angle the camera is at. If such a person appears who can distinguish 15, 24,30,48,60,90,120,144 fps, then we will all immediately know about him because he will fall into the Guinness Book of Records.

did you miss a part where it was 30 renders per 2 days because every other day is WIAB or do you just quote random parts of dev logs until it fits whatever point you're trying to make?

anyway, even if we ignore that apparently "not doing new renders" = "doing nothing", the easiest explanation is, Ocean wrote some scenes, thought he needs a few hundred renders for them, then a few days later read them and decided he can make them shorter or doesn't need them at all. or do you never read what you write before posting it as well?

probably you and I read different studies, the one I read indicated 14 fps, although I think this is not important.
It's not about the advantage, just 2 possibilities appear at high FPS:
1. It is better to see fast-moving objects, if there are no fast-moving objects, then all the meaning of high fps is lost.

2. It becomes possible to slow down time. You shoot 2 seconds at 60 fps and show 6 seconds at 20 fps. If I'm not mistaken, this was first used in the movie The Matrix.

Quoting Ocean's words: "So I set up 1610 still renders alone for SG in around 53 SG days. (Total of 107 days since development started for Ch5. Divided by two as every other day is WiAB.)"
If I missed the part in which Ocean writes 30 renders in 2 days, tell me in which log it was written and I will fix everything right away. I doubt that you will tell the log because I quoted Ocean and you quoted yourself.

do you never read what you write before posting it as well?

 

[m111m123]

It's nothing more than a myth popularized nowadays by console gamers, only these days it's about "the human eye can't see more than 30 fps".
Of course, this is all nonsense, including what you are trying to prove.

Comparing FPS in a game to FPS in a video are two different things. The video fps is static. In games dynamic fps. And in general, where does the console games about them, no one spoke. You are mistaken, I'm not going to prove anything, I just don't see the point in it. Whoever is interested will find all the information on the Internet without me.

Even 5 years old children know how to use a calculator. I'll have to explain to you like you're a little kid.... Ocean has been developing for 107 days, every 2 days he's been working on Wiab. We take 107 divided by 2 and we get 53 days on average. During those 53 days, Ocean produced 1610 renders for SG. And now we divide 1610 by 53 and get 30 renders per day on average.

ok, so you've seen that Ocean works on WIAB every other day, good

Ocean wrote that he set up 30 renders a day. In a month and a half, he could make not only the promised 450 renders, but 3 times more

why do you count days where he works on WIAB as days where he could make SG renders? a month and a half would make it only 3 weeks where he worked on SG. you could still claim "he could've done 600 renders in that time but instead did nothing" but I guess it doesn't sound as good as "he could do 3 times more than he promised"


By the way, have you noticed how the number of "promised" renders went from 450 in log 7 to 350-550 in log 9 to 250-350 in log 10. Maybe that would give you a hint that renders aren't made just for the sake of making renders but are made to illustrate the story, and as scenes change during writing and editing (which is what Ocean said he was doing at least in dev logs 8 and 10, but I guess we're a few dozen comments too early to move on from "no renders" = "doing nothing" part), the number of renders also changes. Sometimes the scene is too short and you need more dialogue and renders. Sometimes you see that it drags on forever and make it shorter, reducing the number of renders needed. And sometimes you realize that it just doesn't make sense and remove it completely, along with any renders you've already made for that scene
