I had some issues with some of the down-sizing techniques for the background characters. This stuff brings a whole new slew of "exciting" DAZ bugs with it, but I managed to work around it for the most part. It's pretty much "learn as I go" with this episode in particular. Something that I'm not too happy with yet, is performance during scene setup. For some reason, certain background characters slow down the whole program, and it takes way too long to save scenes. I'll continue experimenting so I can speed up development eventually. Despite these lingering issues, I'm very happy with the end result 😊. Seeing plenty of characters in the background feels a lot more immersive than an empty house.

Not much else to report for now. I'll try to make some time for bonus renders soon, y'all had to wait a lot for those recently. And a poll for Gold members is coming too.

❤️ Enjoy your weekend! Thank you for your support! ❤️
