Devblog + minigame
🕑 Added 2022-03-13 03:30:39 +0000 UTCHi!
First if you like to have a short visit from a kitty download this minigame here:
The title is: "VisitFromKitty"
And it is just a little minigame that i extracted out of the framework showcase.

Or watch as video here:
https://vimeo.com/687560314/711227db33
Download in Attachements!
The video does not have audio for some reason i need to redo it, the game has audio effects!
GDrive: ~1.5gb
Controls are pretty simple:
Press "W" to play a advance animation,
Press "W" Two times fast, you get another animation.
Hold Left or Right Mouse button to control the animation
Press "S" To go back
"Tab" changes camera (First Person is recommended)
Just experiment and search for new animations :3
Now that your download is running, let get to the devblog!
As you may have read before, my graphics card just died... again.... but don't you worry i still got warranty on it and will have it back in one to two weeks,
until then i have my old and trusty 460gtx, and altough i can't even start my own games on it, i still can get work done because with some config changes the engine runs even on old drivers :3
so everything will go on as normal and i will continue working!

Now to the video you see above:
i changed the way characters (npc's and you) behave to your inputs,
it was always annoying that the feet would slide over the ground when you rotate... i was thinking long about this, and found a very fast and easy to implement solution for this.
It's pretty easy, i just take the current velocity and calculate a direction from the place of the Pelvis, this direction i put into a transform bone node to split the way the lower and upper body behave.
You can see in the video above, Left is the new with reduced sliding, and right is the old way.
In the video itself you can see the Male version of the Bluefoxes,

There are four different skins for the Male Fox, i plan on implementing a simple color wheel, so you can choose you own favorite color :3
I also decided to split the species males and females into different skeletons, they are having their own animations for walking and so on anyway so its actually easier to split them into two skeletons and animation sets, this way it is easier to syncronize them.
Many other things have happened,
i continued working on the never ending Frost part of the framework showcase, and i am thinking about spliting those three parts into their own minigames so i could actually release the Toon part with mirage and the Harem part with you and kitties at you home much faster.
The thing is i always go back and change things i don't like...
For example the Throneroom of PricessArialla, or the room of mistress frost, i have a idea in my head for frost, and i need to make it right!
What do you think about the idea of spliting the Framework showcase?
I will now continue doing animations, actually 3ds max is running as shitty with a 460gtx as with a rtx 3060ti... lol
really hope i get my graphics card replaced sooner than later, only thing annoying is my desktop resolution that is smaller than my native one but other than that its not that bed ^_^
Will be back soon!

Your Furrier,
ps:
I made a few wip screenshots of pricess Arialla
Chillin on her own TailThrone :3

I also experimented with a few shader and frame buffer tricks to get some more detailed fur lighting working:

Furrier
I now changed the URL from Sharing directly to Download, should now just work when you click that link. Please tell me if it does not for you♥ then i upload it to Mega or Dropbox
Furrier

whiskeyfur

Furrier

Furrier

Can't download the mini game from the google drive link, says too many users have downloaded.

Finally got to give that mini game a look and my gosh, it's so darn precious! The peekabo paws from under the covers is so cute! I am glad you ad so many sweet little bits of personality in your games.
Konn
Will this slide include the purring? Wouldn't want to mute that, it is quite relaxing
Furrier
Yes, it was originally intended to be part of the framework showcase, but the other parts mainly the frost part of the framework showcase holds it back. So I decided to split it from that. When I finished the frost part I release everything as intended as one huuuge game, but for the time being the toon part works great on its own 🐱
Ahnassi
So not as a part of the Harem showcase framework game?
Furrier
Good question, the current male fox genitalia is wip I don't like the look, some knotting would be fun, will look into that nice idea!
Furrier
Will add a slider for feral sounds! At the moment they are bound to the Dialoge volume slider
Furrier
Working on that right now 🐱 and I decided to release it as '' standalone'' pretty soon!
Ahnassi
Will the Jasmine x Rajah minigame be added in the new framework (that you have teased some months ago)?
Konn
Really cute little minigame! I especially love how the eyes glow. But could there be an checkbox option to mute only the squeaks the kitty makes? They are a bit sudden and jarring.
Kagemin
First off, thank you for the update and the minigame, both are looking really good. Second, seeing those male foxes and their... endowments. Will canine knots and getting stuck be a thing?
Donshadowwolf
very beautiful💖
Swlightman
That looks so Amazing =3
Fred
Oooooh that's awesome 😍
Furrier
Only a few, I made like 26 animations in this anim set with like 3 dynamic procedural ones. If you really want it you can see all in 5 minutes, but the moments she moves herself are generated movements and never repeat 🐱
Fred
In experimenting, how many animations is the amount to find?
