FF7 Tifa Pinball Alt WIP and other News
🕑 Added 2025-01-24 21:16:02 +0000 UTCSo the Tifa Pinball Alt option won in last month's poll. I have been working on it since yesterday and we might have a train being ran on Tifa :p.. Not sure if I want to have dudes lined up (first image) or just have 1 dude and keep re-using him over and over and imply there is a line (second image). 1 dude makes it faster to render and less resource. But 3 visible dudes in line makes for a better atmosphere.
Not sure who I will get to voice this. I suppose I should get PixieWillow again since she voiced the main Tifa pinball animation. But.. I don't know what her schedule will be like by the time I have a use-able rough draft animation for the VA. I want to release it middle of Feb and if her schedule doesnt permit that, I would have to use a different VA . While waiting for that, I would work on the Yuffie train animation.
FF7 Rebirth came out yesterday, but I don't think I will get it for now. Don't have time, since I gotta animate! And I am going to be poor XD... because I am trying to get an RTX 5090, which is 2000usd before tax. I posted an image of a Blender benchmark. It is almost 100% faster than my RTX 4080. The Tifa beach animation (2min animation) took me about 150 hours to render. An RTX 5090 would cut that down to like 80 hours. As I mentioned before, I cant animate a new project or do very much during rendering on the same computer. I feel VERY inefficient and I seem to fall behind sitting on my ass waiting for renders XD.. hehe.
I might have to camp out at Best Buy or Microcenter for a day X_X... ewww. There is probably not gonna be a poll this month since there is already 2 projects ongoing (3 if count Mai). I also would like to play FF7 Rebirth to get some fresh, new ideas for the polls :s. But in due time.

Looking forward for the Tifa animation She can`t get enough of BBC love hehe Also 150 hours for rendering is really much. Maybe some optimizations and not as crazy quality/resolution settings would help. I think almost/practically same quality with significantly faster rendering should be possible, maybe? (I`m not an expert of course)
