[Public | TiTS] Small Improvements

This month has been underwhelming for personal throughput, but there are some nice changes in this patch. I’d like to promise that I’m ready to climb back in the saddle and start banging the hammer on some new Fen-written content and personally slap things into code, but the backlog looms eternal.

Right now I’m on page 213/230 of the Love Starz (a k-pop style band with three interesting girls), but my brain actively rebels from the idea of sandpapering it against more smut. There’s still hundreds of hundreds of pages of stuff behind it, but it’s harder and harder to keep my focus on this every time I try. For the first time in maybe 10+ years the sexual stuff is the least interesting part of my job (a matter of personal taste and feeling, not a judgement on quality necessarily.)

I’m not entirely sure how to handle that.

I am going to hard close event submissions for now. If they re-open, it will likely be in a much more limited form with no guarantee of feedback. I’m going to have to be more picky with my time and likely be less thorough with projects that are on the edge of acceptability.

Image Pack here (requires stand-alone flash player).

0.8.098 Changelog:

  • New alternate Frosty bust by DreamerOfTheBlue.
  • Bold text should now use a bolder font than it used to for better visibility.
  • Shou’s in-game representation should now have bust art, by Shou.
  • Gena138 coded a small Exhibitionism expansion for Erra (written by HugsAlright)
  • Korgonne offspring now have some interactions available, written by Freed85 and coded by DrunkZombie.

 

Backlog Progress

Hey guys! Fenoxo here. I’m not dead, nor am I just sitting around playing Overwatch all day or whatever the hot new shit is. As you may have seen on my twitter posts in between off topic rants, the backlog be a harsh mistress, but the end is in sight!

Since my last post, the following projects have been approved for coding:

  • Kimber expansion
  • A new scene for using too much “Yibb-Tstll’s Reflexive Lube”
  • Frostwyrm & Nykke polyamory expansion
  • Shizuya intro rework (though TBH, this is mostly options to skip some of the longer introductions).
  • Bhakar, a six-armed bear chef (pending adjustments to his race’s backstory for lore consistency)

I’m also now reviewing a 200 page space k-pop group submission from Fr0sty, author of projects like Extrameet, Tessa, and Narc. It looks like it’s going to be an interesting read.

Regular updates will resume once the backlog is cleared. I’m getting closer!

(And also we had a very good UI update meeting Tuesday. Jacques00 had some amazingly polished prototype images, and we have some potentially very exciting improvements that could come with the switch off of Flash.)

Where’s Fen & TiTS?

(CoC2 also got a recent update.)

Lately, busy. Gedan has been going through the arduous process of converting the 24,000+ lines of code in Creature.as for use in a more Javascripty version of the game due to the coming Flashpocalypse, and with that, we’ve been having a lot of discussions about user interface, mobile support, etc. This has made me realize what a tremendous pain in the ass trying to make a “good” user interface is. Every possible change is a nightmare of tradeoffs in usability and efficiency between different platforms and input methods.

I don’t like it.

On top of that, I’m combing through a relatively massive backlog of submissions (especially after re-opening submissions a while back)! In the process of putting 2019 backlog behind me, the following projects got greenlit: SynthPussy, Horndog (Horn tweaking TF), Canine Synthsheath (PC use only so far), Muff Modeler (Dong Designer alternative), and an insect transformation.

Now that I’m into 2020, I’m halfway through reviewing a 60 page Kimber expansion with approximately 18 submissions to evaluate after that. Hopefully I can be back to writing/coding myself in a week, though that will depend on how many of these are good enough to get a full read – and long enough to make it take a while.

Today almost kicked off the week on the right foot. Almost.

But now we have public patch! (And Image Pack! Warning: Image Pack contains more severe trip / staggered penalties than other versions since it was compiled after I started doing some edits. Also there’s a new Erra scene in there that was half-coded at the time of public patch.)

0.8.097 Changelog:

  • Laquines with deer antlers are now referred to as jackalopes. Was this change a good idea? Maybe.
  • It’s now possible to meet Shou (or at least, a variant ‘sona of hers) in game at your local taxi services! Written by Wsan, coded by Gena138. (You should have a chance to encounter her at many of the early game taxi stations. After several encounters, she’ll move to Anon’s Bar.)
  • William’s lovemaking scene for the female sydian is now available. (Do “Gentle Lovemaking” first. Should occur on your next visit.)
  • It’s now possible to get pregnant from male naleen, written by Skom and coded by Drunkzombie.
  • Some bugs got fixed, and some new ones got introduced.

[Backers | TiTS] A Penny For Your Thoughts

Sabrae’s looking pretty good…

This patch should have came out last night, but instead I spent the evening unraveling mentally, which is always nice. Regardless, I finished up what I was doing with it this afternoon, and here you are. I would have liked to have had a full roster of victory scenes. I really would have. Despite putting out a call to the community writers for assistance rounding out her scene count a while back, I have basically 0 bites. Monetary compensation doesn’t have the same pull as writing your own waifus, I suppose.

0.8.096:

  • New oral thirst submission events added to the options at the gabilani chemist. New scenes include Penny (with a dick), bimbo Penny, and the zaika hydra. All written by me, all coded by me, with some massive editing help from William.
  • The gabilani chemist can now be fought. As a result, the option to just walk away from her has been removed. She’s quite a complex fight with a lot of different things going on, so I’m sure there will be bugs. Pointing them out to us (especially on the bug report forum) will help us clean it up faster.
  • The gabilani enemies are now encountered in the gabtown area of the Gyre, which is presently identifiable by green squares on the map. (Right now the chemist’s encounter rate is jacked wayyyy up for testing).
  • The energy bar for enemies can now be renamed as appropriate. (It is used as ammo for the chemist, and I even updated her energy change display function to better communicate this).
  • New threesome event with Syri & Erra can be started by entering Erra’s sex menu where Syri is present. By HugsAlright, coded by me.
  • New transformation available for Erra: Huskar. This micro expansion doesn’t add new scenes but does make small tweaks to a lot of her scenes, hopefully with more coming. Also includes the ability to feed her Tittyblossom a few times after. Written by HugsAlright, coded by one minotaur boye.
  • New TF: Vernacola, that lets you change your tongue type, sold by Sera and in the Joyco vending machine in Tarkus
  • New bust: Sabrae.
  • New art pack image: Syri x Erra threesome, by PinkSeito
  • Fixed an issue where the Aphro Gas status effect would double print its damage.

[Backers | TiTS] Thirsty Scenes

Did you think the thirst was over? I HAVE ONLY BEGUN TO THIRST!

I meant to have this out to you guys at the start of the previous weekend, but circumstances (and drama flare-ups) at that pretty well. Still, progress is progress!

0.8.095

  • The gabilani chemist’s scene for reacting to “thirsty” PC’s now has the “call zaika” fork enabled. This presents three randomized blowjob scenes out of the total available (which is only three for right now…). I have ideas for at least 1-2 more “generic” ones and a few where I’m going to have some of my futa crew members make a cameo (Shekka/Kiro).
  • Feeding thirst should now immediately result in it being removed (instead of occurring on the next “processTime” event after acquiring “Orally-Filled”).
  • Fixed the milk bar status tooltips.
  • New parsers: lipNoun, lipNouns, lipNounChaste, lipNounsChaste.
  • Lots of typos fixed and tweaked.
  • The combat tail’s tooltip should now warn that equipping it will remove current tails.
  • The combat tail can no longer strike flying targets.

I’ve also been playing through the game for real, for the first time in forever. Some of the typos and italic bleeds are ones I caught personally. Thus far, I just got onboard Zheng Shi with “Doom Suula,” and I’m sad I couldn’t take Emmy with me.

Goblins gonna gob! (by: Adjatha

Update (2020/06/10): No new patch today. That placeholder scene will definitely get turned on and patch tomorrow, even if it means adding more stuff to it later.

Update2 (2020/06/11): Didn’t get as much done today as I would like, and CoC2 pushed a patch, so I won’t bump it off till at least tomorrow.

New day, new patch! Now I disappear into the submission mines to review content from 2019. A simpler time…

0.8.094 Changelog:

  • New Gabilani Chemist scene by yours truly. Clocks in over 2,000 words for those who have been awarded her “Cum Thirsty” perk and are presently afflicted by the “Thirsty” status.
  • New combat cybernetics available at the Implantation Station on Dhaal: Combat Tail & Ballistic Breast Liners. The tail functions as a drone while the liners provide a source of defense (and slight breast enlargement).
  • The systems for equipping and unequipping implants have been tweaked for consistency across systems and individual implants. Apologies if this introduces new bugs in the short term!
  • New bust: Gabilani Chemist!
  • New image embed for the artpack: the Gabilani Chemist’s priapism scene now has an appropriate image.
  • Several small bug fixes a well!

(Fen Note: I pushed a new patch but edited the timestamp to put it below Shou’s post due to the seriousness of it.)

Hello everyone, Shou here.

So a lot of you have probably been wondering where the heck I’ve been the last two months. Well, it turns out – I’ve been really sick. I’ll give you guys a small breakdown, but most of this is just going to be general information since I wanna keep a lot of my medical stuff private. I have been suffering from pretty bad joint pain, and for a while there I couldn’t go up and down the stairs without crying because of how bad the joints in my hands, wrists, ankles, and knees were.

I went to the doctor when it got this bad and they ran me through a battery of tests and medications, and slowly discovered over the past weeks what worked and what didn’t. I was diagnosed with a few things; including a simple (but not so simple solution) autoimmune disorder with reactive arthritis. It explains why I get so sick so easily, and why my joints hurt so bad. The arthritis is new, but an expected development, and now we’re just figuring out medicine and treatments for me going in the future. Along with extra lab tests to treat more of the underlying causes.

What does this mean?? I’m still going to be working of course, now that I am on medicine and beginning to feel better. But I am a bit on the slower side as I try to minimize the damage to my joints. As the coming weeks go, however, I should be getting back up to speed due to the medications and looking forward to seeing all your wonderful faces in my streams again! I have missed you guys a lot, and I have especially missed working and just hanging out!

So in the coming days look for me to announce a Livestream and come hang out with me!
Your support means everything!

Small monday afternoon patch, here we goooo~! An image pack update will probably come later.

0.8.093 Changelog:

  • New Zaika Hydra victory scene (in the GravCuffs) scene, written by William, coded by me.
  • Brandy’s busts should be compatible with the zoom-in function of future image packs.
  • Fixed a few small bugs and typos.
  • Some rooms have been blocked out on Dhaal for an area I’m calling “Gabtown” at the moment. In the future, the gabilani enemies and NPCs will mostly be encountered there.

Enjoy! I hope to push more patches almost daily this week if I can.

Goblins gonna gob! (by: Sulcate)

Some of you might not have noticed that Trials in Tainted Space got a public patch a few days ago – it did! At the time I forgot to include the image pack version of the public release. You can grab that now :3

Oh, and there’s a CoC2  Backer patch out as of yesterday too!

Now, on to new backer content! (I may make some smaller patches to fix and enable more content this week. Victory stuff will likely arrive next week.)

0.8.092 Changelog:

  • Fixed event log spam from the cum thirsty perk. It still needs tweaks to clear the status immediately upon fluid drinking instead of the next time the clock advances after.
  • Added a 10% drop chance chemist’s coat accessory that I had coded on my laptop this afternoon and didn’t test at all. I’m sure it’s fine…

0.8.091 Changelog:

  • The “Cum Thirsty” perk has been enabled.
  • A few broken parser calls and typos should be fixed.

0.8.090 Changelog:

  • A new enemy has been added to Dhaal! The Gabilani Chemist prowls the mean streets looking for subject to test her experimental mutagens on. Her combat scenario and victory texts aren’t done, but I loved her variety of body-modifying loss scenes so much that I couldn’t keep them to myself any longer:
    • Booze-oombas – Get temporary alcoholic breastmilk… with a twist.
    • LHD – Lesbian Hallucination Drug. Need I add more?
    • Exgartuan – A scene featuring temporary hyper engorgement that ends with some minor growth.
    • Fun With Priapism – Get a stiffy that just won’t quit and get milked into a condom for “testing”.
    • The Big Suck – After submitting enough times in a row, get treated with an enhanced version of snakebyte that’ll give you a cum-thirsty new perk (note: perk not yet active in code)
  • One of Ardia’s pre-crew scenes is now available when she’s on the crew. (Thanks Gena138!)
  • Ardia got some bug fixes courtesy of Gena138 as well.
  • The Cylirian codex (Maike’s race) is now active in game, courtesy of Gena138 as well.
