Futa Quest development news #43 (Patreon)

First development news in the new year 2023.

I want to start with the good news, especially that having a little more free time caused by the holidays in January our little team was able to move forward in development a little more than usual. This opens up a few more nice moments at once.

Being about halfway done with the animation, when it's finished we can speak with confidence about the exact dates of the next release. You can now start waiting for the test scene, which will be released sometime in the next week.

In other general news, we have one eye on neural networks.

Let me immediately calm down all those who think that in this way we want to transfer all the work to the artificial intelligence, and the project will lose its soul. We don't want to do that. I am very passionate about my drawings and will not allow any AI to draw them completely for me.
The most we'll probably use AI for in the future is concept art for backgrounds or unusual character poses that are hard to find freely available on the web.

Although as it turns out in the latest news there are some difficulties to get into all of this. Such problems can be considered that for rendering art you need 8 GB of video memory, and my old RTX2060 with 6 GB can not cope with it. So, that we will definitely write if there will be any progress on this issue. 

We consider the policy of full transparency and respect for every person making a feasible contribution to the development of the project to be right. Therefore, people who support us should be aware of whether any art is made by hand or based on neural network resources.

That's the way it is.
