Progress Report, 07/10 - 22

Hello everyone and welcome to another in the line of progress reports.

Productive week, this one. Been able to get more animation sorted, as well as commissioned a Vorcha soundpack from Ivan, ensuring significantly more freedom in projects when it comes to their behavior and featuring. Considering how often Vorcha appear in my Mass Effect oriented work, it was about time I got some professional voice acting done for them rather than trying to fit sounds ripped from the games into NSFW scenarios.

Final reminder to vote in the 20.000 twitter celebration poll! Only two days remain, so go make your voice heard here: LINK

To answer some questions I've gotten lately pertaining to model poll availability as well as featuring: some kind of blender hiccup is presently underway, where (from what I can tell) parts of the lineup of both Mustard's and Rigid's models are (occasionally) suffering render issues in the Eevee engine, which is what I rely on for animations. Owing to the recent Blender updates, a couple of which has happened in rapid succession, I can only imagine it's an issue on that end, where they've messed something up that they're trying to desperately hotfix. Newer models, paradoxically, seem more impacted than older ones, but as of writing this (with a hotfix seeming to have landed mid-writing) most seem to be somewhat back to normal - making me express my joy, if tentatively, since things could break again with the next one. I have no idea what issue they are trying to resolve, but if it straightens out the model gallery so we can once more feature the whole thing, I am all for it. Miranda above is an example of how things look during the more dire times.

A small Halloween poll will land after the Twitter one has concluded, as to determine a wallpaper for the occasion. Keep your eyes out for it :)

Thank you, as always, for your continued support and for all of your kind words! Autumn has finally arrived in force, with the trees turning red and yellow and the winds picking up speed. Rain gives me a good excuse as well to sit inside and work away at this stuff, so stay tuned - plenty more coming this year :)

Take care of yourselves, and each other!
