Shem Stills

A few more color tests for the sequence. 

For those that are curious, a color test is a shading and coloring pass on the sketch layer before rigging and animation to see where the lighting is going to come from and to play around with the look before committing to the full detail artic...

Shemyay Stills

Here are some color tests for Shem's scene.

Shemyay Color Test Video

Shemyay's sketch color test brings us one step closer to having her animation in place. The next step is to begin prepping her rig and detailing the background.

Rio Project: Shemyay Video

Shemyay's sketch is in and we are getting ready to finally have her color test and rig assembly constructed. This is not the final version of her model. Design improvements and rig/anatomy fixes are coming.

I imported the old models from lightwave only for scaling and scene composition. Thi...

Rio Project: Shemyay Storyboards

These are storyboards for Scene 2.1. It's a small scene featuring Shemyay that is playing on the TV when Rio and Tyler Start fucking at the Motel.

As I mentioned in the sketches post, I also plan to release this as a stand-alone Animation, and at some point, I might build on it a bit. ...

Rio Project: Shemyay Sketches

Here are some sketches Fossil did years ago back at the beginning of him working for us. Some of what he sent me I couldn't use, but this I still can!

You might be wondering what's Shemyay sketches doing in the Rio project? This is a cameo scene for the film. It's one of the shortest scenes...

What's Going On at HTH Studios

Hey everyone,

I know we've been pretty quiet here, what with all the craziness that's been going on from losing our website developer, and unity coder nearly a month apart, and the sudden security issues that required a redesign of the website by myself. We're finally at a place where we ca...

Website and Link Updates

We've fixed the security issues and have a temporary website up. Links work again as well.

We still have a ways to go to get this whole website figured out, but for now it doesn't look like we're dead/disappeared/etc.

Website Store and Link Issues

Our website developer has disappeared on us. We've been trying to contact them for a couple of weeks and we have had no response, and now the security notification is popping up, and we're on our own to fix it. Unfortunately, it's looking like the links aren't working either. We are looking at wh...

Studio Updates

Hello everyone,

Things have been a bit quiet on our end, and it’s time we fill you in on the goings on and what our plans are.

July and August were a wreck. Towards the end of July we were forced to cut ties with our Unity coder (If you need more information about these reasons you ...

Patreon now offers an option to pay on an annual basis! It’s a great way to show your support to us. We've offered this on our own website, and now it's possible to pay annually here. In addition to reducing transaction fees for both of us, this could reduc...

I Screwed Up

Hey all, Ty here, I'm so sorry for this week of silence, I had to make an emergency trip to CA to take care of some of my dad's affairs last minute and, despite my intentions to work during the days I was gone, I really underestimated what I could handle. I should have made a post here, I didn't ...

Link Delivery -- I Need Your Help

Before I get into it

Please check your Patreon Messages FIRST for links. That's where I send them.

It is possible that the message isn't automatically converting things to clickable links -- something that's not in my control.

Here's what's going on:

Patreon Stability: Please Read

Hello Patrons,

I'm here to remind folks that we have a Patreon alternative at Subscribestar, in the event that something happens with Patreon. Overall, Patreon's been having some issues on the back end and now there are more issues that could potentially cause us problems.

Here's the ...

Missing Your Links? Please Read

So Patreon as severely messed up the creator tools, and I now have no idea if every one is getting their links.

If you don't have a Patreon message from me and have been waiting longer than 24hrs PLEASE contact me. I've sent help tickets about this problem and commented in forums, but I hav...

Alpha Team Update Next

During the website downtime, progress was made toward the next RLD Unity update. That is the next planned release. As usual, no eta. We wanted to let you all know that the next update will be something for you to test. You all helped a bunch getting RLD ready to launch and we're looking forward t...

We're BACK!

The FTP is up, links are working, and I've sent links to everyone. They are new links. Because almost everyone throughout June didn't get a chance to download links, I've sent links to June's Patrons as well as July's so if you get duplicate messages, it's to cover everyone throughout both months...

Website Status Update: FTP Delays

After multiple attempts to upload our games to the new FTP, the cap on it was too small so we had to contact the hosting company for approval to expand the cap. We're still waiting on that. It's a holiday weekend so we're not expecting anything until Monday.

Things have a knack of going wro...

Links Don't Work Yet and Why

I mention this in the message, but since I'm getting a lot of messages about this:

The Links Do Not Work Yet

The FTP is still not up. I will make a post when you can  download links. 

Yes you can still download links next month even if...

Website Status

Yes, unfortunately the website is still down. Here's where we're at and what the plans are:

The main focus now is restoring access to the FTP which is where links download from. There have been a couple of problems delaying this, mainly the code rewriting to work with the new server.

...

Website Still Down: Update

Yes, the site is still down, and with it the links for game downloads. We have paid for a new server, and our web team is moving things over as I type. The biggest delay in moving the site over is we needed to make a backup for the site, and the site is huge. With that part out of the way the tra...

Website is Down

We are looking into it. Unfortunately, because our links are hosted on the website, the links don't work either. If you've downloaded the game before now, you have it, otherwise, everything is on pause until we can figure out what happened.

So the good news is we have heard back from the we...
