Behind the scenes: Engine work #2
Added 2020-05-18 01:22:37 +0000 UTCThis will be a little behind the scenes, more news in a sense kind of post as much of the actual engine work is kind of different to share visually.
So, if you aren't up to date on the engine work stuff going on. Check this previous post out.
This is on going for update 0.11 to make sure the file size is fully future proofed for the rest of the game project dev process. Also good for those who don't wish to see huge download file sizes! <.<
So, what has happened since my last post?
I have done days 3, 4 & 5 now by tonight. With some plans in possibly getting a little ahead and having day 6 done tonight before it's too late as well. A lot of old expressions have been getting replaced with their new ones, new dialogue and text fixing of older sections so far and compressed images for the expressions and bg's are being put in. (still nearly no difference at all with quality drop! <3 )
The file size started at 1.13GB before doing any adjustments at the start of this engine process. We're now at 565MB total file size! ^^
That's only going to get lower with each of the game's days adjusted, but it will begin to be smaller jumps in how the file size is getting lower as most of this right now is just removing hundred's of old expressions. :P But the idea is to aim for 150-200MB total by the finish line!
Not much else to say currently, I'm hoping I can stay ahead on schedule and things stay very smooth still! <3
