Pics 171: Pirate and Western Photoshoots

 This pirate and western themed photoshoot posts features costumes because I had to buy new costumes to make these. Nude versions will be attached. When I made these photoshoots 6 years ago, I already had the costumes in Poser, but for Daz, I had to buy new costumes.

I went with what was on sale, which is why the male player is dressed like an old time bar patron instead of Clint Eastwood.

 The female western costume is the same as the one Rachel is wearing, just restyled and colored. Also the player character has simple enough hair they look good in the cowboy hat. Ariane and Rachel's hair is too complex to wear hats.

 Meanwhile on the pirate side I found matching "corsair" outfits for men and women. The silly hat Ariane is wearing is the one Rachel wear in the old version pictures.

 Meanwhile the women are all wearing the same outfit. Ariane isn't wearing shirt or pants, just the jacket and corset, Rachel is wearing the half that Ariane isn't, and the female player character is wearing the whole outfit.

You can probably tell I'm using the same poses for some of these. What is more odd is I didn't move the camera or lights to change the venue. I literally erased the western set in 3D and rebuilt the pirate set and moved it into place in 3D. The background lighting and shadows are the same on both sets. 

Ariane in Paradise Demo and Android version News

I got both a demo and an Android versions working. They both have their oddities and need testing, but since the demo is easier to test, it will likely be ready as soon as this weekend.

The android version is a bit odd. Because of memory size issues on some android devices, I can't do the 1440p version. So I'm taking the 1.5 version, and replacing all the graphics with resized 2.0 pictures (Thanks  Faststone Photo Resizer). That means new features like scrolling backgrounds on hikes and the dress/undress animations will not be available in Android. Got a version working on my PC, the real trick is to get it working on my phone.

Free Steam Keys Coming

I requested about 50 Steam keys for the game to boost numbers on Steam. I'll be distributing them to $5 and above patrons first on a first come first served basis, and after a decent amount of time to owners of the game on itch.
