December 26, 2016 Update

Happy Holidays folks!  Hope you've had an enjoyable time.  Mine were quite busy.  I did manage to finish up the eyes and ears and clean up the mouth a bit.  

I wasn't able to accurately get the face of the celebrity I was going for, but I think the system is incredibly versatile, moreso that any game I've encountered before, so I'll leave it as is.  I've dropped quite a lot of time on it already, and am ready to move onto other things, like the genital area.

I think differences in penises mostly come down to siz...

December 19, 2016 Update

This week I actually spent most of the time in bed sick with the flu. Fever shakes, coughing,  vomiting, coughing so hard I vomitted. It was pretty awful.  I just started to feel like a person again yesterday.  

In the last day-ish, I was able to get a little more work done on the face deforms. I was really hoping to have all the weight mapping done by this week's updated, but playing hide-and-seek with Death got in the way.

In the gif for this week I included what it looks like while I'm manipulating the bones in Unity. ...

December 12, 2016 Update

This week I've been in search of a more beautiful face.  The currently released version uses blendshapes for all the face deforms.  Expanding on this has proven to be extremely limiting, frustrating and tedious.  

I spent several days on it trying to set up the blendshapes so the face resembled a particular celebrity, who's well known for her beauty.  It was a tremendous disaster that shouldn't see the light of day.  Everything I did simply made the face look more wierd.  

An MMO called "Black Desert Online...

November 28, 2016 Update

I guess there's technically no nudity in this one, so public update!  

I spent this week working on the mouth physics.  Mouths are complicated.  There's a ton of moving, jiggling, form-fitting and stretchy parts.  

There's still some tweking to do, but it's coming along well.

I also smoothed out the areola's a bit.  

Short update this week I guess.

New WebGL and Standalone Builds 0.3.2

Again?!  Yes again.  No builds for like 6 months, then like 4 in a week.  

Anyway, with this one, I was getting reports that some folks were seeing the character models as all black.  With less fantastic graphics cards, the new shaders weren't working and the fallbacks were not being picked up for some reason.  So, I've implemented a checkbox on the menu page that people can tick if their models are all black.  This will force the models to use the older shaders without tesselation. I hope that this resolves the ...

New Build 0.3.1 - Update to yesterday's build

So apparently player death jacked up the whole game up and required a full restart.  I thought that quitting to main menu would have allowed the game to start over, but it did not.

This update adds a simple checkpoint at the door to your room. If you die,  you respawn with full health at the door.  Nothing else in the scene changes.

I just wanted to get this change out asap.  ...

November 7, 2016 Update - New Build

Alright!  So, I'm up way past my bedtime writing this.  I was engaging in a little crunch time to get this build out.  I been running through tests all day and there were several issues that came up.  I've ironed those out and  it's looking pretty good now.  One remaining known issue is that the NPC Guards kind of slide around weirdly when you hit them, but it's not bad and I'll figure that out soon enough.

One big thing to note, is that Patreon has updated their terms of service to explicitly define the followin...

October 10, 2016 Update - NEW PLAYABLE BUILD!

Get the build here: http://aephrosi.com/builds/ViziersShameWIN.rar

Another huge week.  As the potential to release a new build was very clearly on the horizon I sunk all available time into working on the game this week.  Here are some highlights:

Set up a male and female captive to interact with sexually.

All kinds of sounds and a sound attribution page in the options panel.

Sexual interactions have indic...

September 25, 2016 Update

Hey all. Update is a day early this week as I'll be out of town tomorrow.  Also, Patreon seems incapable up posting an update with an image right now, so it's on Imgur:  http://i.imgur.com/lDk8vip.gifv

The Ball/Clit/Labia rub interaction is in and working well. It was a bit more complicated that I had imagined, primarily because I had to handle both hands now and make sure each hand only goes where it's supposed to. The labia/clit physics aren't in ye...

May 2, 2016 Update

The introduction is now finished up.  Through your initial conversation with the Under Proxy, she'll form an opinion of you.  You'll get an idea of how she feels about you at the end of the introduction.  

The conversation has quite a few options.  You can play through multiple times to see the various sequences and see how your responses affect the Under Proxy's opinion of you.

A new standalone player should be available here: 2016-05-02 22:05:08 +0000 UTC View Post

April 25, 2016 Update

Fun stuff this week, but it doesn't make for great visuals.  The picture here is almost all of the first dialog tree.  You could get through it in as little as 6 responses or as many as a lot.  

The blue boxes are Player responses and gray is the NPC dialog.  Your responses, most of them, shape the NPC's perception of you.  How they perceive you, determines how they interact with you.  

There are 28 personality categories each with 6 (168 total) descriptive words that form a spectrum on which you ar...

April 18, 2016 Update

Working on the intro this week.  It's definitely time to get into the real game play. All the systems for the character creation are in place, and can be expanded on if needed (or voted for).

Now it's time to set-up the story and actual game play.

April 11, 2016 Update

New Webplayer is being uploaded now.  This week the GUI was implemented so all the options that were finished up last week are now available.

The auto-scaling and auto-populating took a bit more time than I had hoped, but it's in!

Have fun.

April 4, 2016 Update

Oh man what a busy week!  I started out adding to the rig so the butt could jiggle.  That broke so many of the things.  My prefabs did not like the addition to the armature.  Fortunately I was able to implement a system which fixed all the things and will allow me to add more bones in the future if need without the total implosion of the whole project.

After that, I got some really neat work done on the hair, primarily the bangs.  There are two types currently: forward and bump. However, even with just the two the...

March 21, 2016 Update

New Webplayer was put up earlier in the week.  Since then there's been good progress.  I've been working on revising some of my old shaders to get multiple layers available for hair roots, makeup and skin tight clothes. The shader also allows for HSV variations so the skin color can have significant variance. Also working on hair models which are coming along very nicely.  I'm able to combine blendshapes and unity cloth for adjustable lengths of flowing hair.  Quite pleasing.  

March 21, 2016 Update

Fetish/Sexual preferences framework is in place.  I'm setting that aside for now to focus on more vital components.  I was playing another adult game earlier this week and all the characters had the same dead expression on their faces.  Turn off.  So,  facial expression blendshapes are now in Vizier's Shame.  There's over 50, which should give a pretty good range of emotion.

Also working on performance optimizations before dropping a webplayer version.  I'm expecting that will be available next week.

There's a downloadable .rar file hosted on the Legend of Krystal Forums. It's an unfinished character creator at this point, but it's pretty neat so far:
