🗒️🪛An update that once was a hotfix (0.1.1.1)

Added 2022-08-05 16:44:46 +0000 UTC

Hi!

¡First of all welcome to all new patrons to this small comunity, and thank you so much ^^

I wanted to make a hotfix solving some bugs in the 0.1.1 and adding some common graphics configuration options but I finally added more things and I can't call it a hotfix anymore, so here's the 0.1.1.1 update, this is not the august update.

🐧Linux version delayed

Seems like there's not an updated SDK for cross-compiling from windows to linux yet, I would really like to build a Linux version since I like so much the filosophy of this OS, I will keep trying to find solutions.

🍎Mac version in the limbo

I will build a mac version when apple stop pretending they're eco.

No, I would make a mac version if I could do it, but seems like that's not a priority for Epic, and I suppose that these new M1 - M2 processors make OSX go for a way a bit more distanced from the traditional desktop computing, so I don't know when we'll be able to build for mac.

🎚️options

The options has grown and the layout had to change, now there're a lateral category buttons.

Also all the menu behave a bit more like in a normal game... so you can exit from options to menu pressing esc, and from menu to the game like this too, also you can directly go to options categories being in the menu using keys:

[o]: general options

[g]: graphics options

[c]: cosmos options

Graphics options

There's a new "apply and save" option to not having annoying freezes or flickering at every single time that you change something. Also the game is visible through all the options submenu so you can make changes and inmediatelly see the results without having to return to the game.

Cosmos options

There're two new buttons to generate a backup and load a backup.

Notes:

- set shadows to low will produce not having shadows at all.

- set view distance to low will set the LOD of the hair to its maximum value, so basically it will look like minecraft.

- lower the shadows or lighting will increase a lot the performance. But I highly recommend to keep global illumination at epic quality, at the lower quality lighting looks like crap.

- there's the cinematic level for any option, this is absolutely experimental, set any option to cinematic will make the head of a random grandma in the planet earth literally explode, really, don't do it.

⚖️Patreon/Free builds

The rules for all the free versions will be the following:

- My priority will always be the patreon version, once I finish and upload the patreon build, I will start doing all the things for the free build.

- The free builds will have the censorship enabled and locked.

There's a new option to censor erogenous parts; genitalia, nipples and anus; I don't make distinctions between nipples on boobs or in breasts witho... without boobs, either all nipples are censored or none are.

Also there's a new sign that tells you which version of the game you have.

🌌Cosmos

Cosmos has now a profile updater dialog, each time that a update change the definition of the characters in the game, the cosmos updater will apear asking you for take any action. I recomend to select accept and the game will make all for you, I just want to give players the maximum control over the data in the game.

Pressing the "more options" button you gonna open the cosmos updater tool.

I think that the moment the player plays a game and generates data in it, that game is partly owned by the player. Following this philosophy I think the best thing is that when it comes to modifying the data that the user has created, the decision should be up to the user himself, so you have the option of not updating the profiles.

Cosmos backups

You can make a backup of all the profiles you have, this will generate a cosmos metacode with all the respective codes for each profile and character you have (I really love encoding data)

WARNING: Do not delete or modify the new "ver" value in a cosmos code, you may get unexpected results.

🪛Fixes

- blocky shadows are a bit less noticeable.

- interactions by clicking are now less likely to stop working.

- boobs stiffness interpolates reversed, if you have some profile where you changed this value, this is why I have created the cosmos updater tool.

- fixed a bug where futas start squirting for the penis without reaching an orgasm.

- fixed target FPS not showing user saved value.

- removed foot step sound effect on neutral walk animation.

- the rounded corners of the UI will decrease its radius if the game window are smaller.

- fixed a very anoying bug where dragging in cosmos mode sometimes make the mouse abruptely change its position and change the modifying value (I'm so sorry)

🪳Knowed bugs

Bent penis: I'm not entirely sure it is finally solved, I've changed some things to fix it, but this is a very tough bug and probably it may happens to you, you can fix it stimulating the bugged character in any way.

Clipping: Some body configurations may have clipping issues.

Click loose focus: Click for interacting is working now but sometimes it looses focus and you need to click two times.

Permanently hidden mouse: Sometimes the mouse can completely dissappear, if it happens you can press the middle mouse button to fix the issue.

Character freezes at starting sex interaction: If you start a sexual interaction with a partner, leave that interaction and start a new one while your partner is still in their interaction, your character will freeze.

GPU memory vacum in cosmos mode: That's a serius problem, being at cosmos mode and switching between cosmos profiles make the game start using a incredibly huge amount of GPU memory.
