Elisarstudio Threads of Destiny version 0.1.6

Scenes:The animated scene with Elli in the library is fully complete. Wizards can see all the static variations of this scene in the Gallery right now. This event, and other similar events, will have a development depending on the level of the heroines depravity and their relations with Sardo... But this version has only light scenes, since Elli cannot be debouched to the limits necessary to see all the events this scene contains...Static scenes with Taleona in the bar are also available in the Gallery for Wizards. It is still impossible to see all the variations of this scenes in the game, since the quest line for developing relations with her, as well as a few more scenes, are still in progress.An art scene showing the first meeting with Louise has been added. We didn’t have time to finish it a bit, that’s why it looks like this for now.Locations:There are 3 new locations ready: the village of Venwood, a tavern in the village and the study of the owner of the sawmill, as well as evening and night light for those locations.The Venwood setting is partially ready. The location still needs more actions. The main focus has been placed only on the quest and the residents taking part in it.Aklorion is again available for travel. The location of stables in Aklorion has also been improved.The Aklorion setting is slightly modified, various errors and bugs left over from the prologue are also cleaned up.Quests:The quest which refers to looking for the information about Taleona’s missing family is ready. It provides access to the Venwood village.There is also a new quest, which was supposed to be part of Josette and Venedi’s return (two slaves from the very beginning of the game), but in the course of work we decided to separate those events. I will clarify that. This quest will be available only to those players who spoke to Venedi and received a request to buy Louise from Bou at the beginning of the game. If everything is fine and if you use saves from version 0.1.5, you will receive a notification that a new quest has been added.Now it is possible to rent a room and stay in a hotel for a night. In the future, it will involve several story and side quests.In addition, several new events are ready, including a small dialogue with Nansy in the study, and with the maids of the Aklorion hotel.The dialogues with girls from the brothel are also refined, and if, for some reason, you missed the scenes in the brothel in the prologue, you can see them by visiting the girls at any time.Partially, it will also affect the plot in the future. Actually, like many other choices you make... It is difficult to make an extensive system of events, but it makes our work even more interesting :-DBy the way, I almost forgot to mention that I updated the scenes with the girls in a brothel. I removed almost all black screens between transitions of animations. Each change of animation used to be accompanied by a black screen to hide lags when changing cyclic animations. New functionality for animation scenes allowed us to completely eliminate those problems, so now all the animations in the game will be replaced more smoothly. You might have noticed that during the first dialogue with Taleona in the bar of the mansion.New characters and busts:2 new characters with a full set of busts, variations of clothes and emotions have been added.More than 40 new sets of sprite characters have been finished. They include variations of sprites for new characters, as well as a decent amount of new city dwellers.Venedi’s appearance has also been completely changed, as the old one didn’t fit into the style of the game. Well, the same happened to many other characters that we created when we just started working on the game. Venedi has got 4 different variations of garments, including different busts for the time when she was a slave and when you meet her when doing Louise’s quest.Technical aspect:There are only few changes concerning the technical aspect of this update, as it took us more time than we expected to modify the engine for the new functionality related to highlighting the characters when pointing at them and highlighting the transition points. But still, the promised test version is sure to appear before this functionality is added into the game. There will probably be some more information about it this month.The loading screen has undergone some minor changes. It works in a test mode, we didn’t have time to work on it, but there are some nice improvements. It’s just a decorative element, but when we have time, we will modify the loading screen so that this element doesn’t stand out from the general style of the game.The error which caused some bugs in the dialogues with Elli in the late evening has been fixed. Elli’s naked busts didn’t load.Besides, some changes were made to the code of the game. The game will load faster now.Fix update of July 9th:We've fixed an error that appeared during the dialogues with Taleona when using saves from previous versions of the game.A bug has been fixed that could have appeared in the journal when trying to enter the menu of relations with Umi after talking with Taleona.A bug has been fixed with the absence (incorrectly typed name) of a graphic resource in the Ansilla street.The error related to a missing file called Abraham_1 in the resources of the game has been corrected.An error has been fixed in the dialogue with Taleona after completing her first quest. It was impossible to invite her to the bar.Save files:The save files from version 0.1.5 are guaranteed to work in this update. It’s advisable to loading the save file BEFORE writing a reply to Aelmar which symbolize the end of «Family affairs» quest to avoid any bugs that might occur in the game.If you use the save files from version 0.1.35, there might be errors and bugs, but it’s only a supposition To use the save files from version 0.1.5, you need to move all files from 0.1.5/www/saves into folder 0.1.6/www/saves as soon as you download version 0.1.6.If you have already run the game, you need to clear the folder named saves of version 0.1.6 and after that repeat the operation described above.
