Haven't had a whole lot of time for modding this week, however, I have had a really productive morning today and have managed to get a good chunk of the initial work done.
I'm going to try explaining what I've been up to without giving out any story spoilers. Basically, I have been setting up a brand new scene when you enter Tigras's new cave. It is from the events of this that the player can earn Tigras's trust, and possibly earn the ability to become his beta.
Male players will actually go through the same scenario here, except it will need some tweaking. (Note: This is just an explanation. There will not be male content in v1.0) I'm going to give even less details about this, because most of the ideas are just floating around right now, and are subject to change.
For me, telling a story is interesting, because of the fact that the stories in my mind constantly undergo changes to explain things better than before. It wasn't until just today that I thought of the best way to do the scene, in fact. I'm hoping my efforts will not be in vain, and that the story will be worth going through.
However, there is still quite a bit of necessary work to do. Right now I am combing through my scripts, and removing all of the old references to the old events. The ball of yarn that was keeping me from this update is finally beginning to come undone. I'm expecting a couple of tangles throughout, but so be it, honestly. This new flow should be much more interesting than the mindless sex that was there previously, as it gives me an entirely new story to work with, something I've wanted to do for quite a while.
Once removing the old infrastructure is finished, it will allow me to continue to build the new version of the quest. I'm quite excited about this, I must say, and look forward to saying more about it in the (hopefully near) future.
As for SSL, because Ashal has come out with the new version, some users have reported incompatibility between my mod and the latest version of it. I will need to look into this later, however, it isn't a high priority on my list because I suspect several versions will be released before I'm ready for my own 1.0 release. In addition, sex has been... greatly diminished in importance to the beginning of the mod. Because of this, I'm going to wait until a very stable version comes out that I can work with.
As for Beeing Female, right now I'm not going to work with it. That content will have to be in a later release. Right now I have a set amount of things cut out that need to be done for v1.0, and I'm not going to add anything else to it, or else things will never get done. Rest assured though, this mod will eventually become its namesake. Though I've considered renaming this one again (Probably won't, changing the naming conventions inside the mod would be... awful, to say the least) I've been thinking about making my own custom addon for Beeing Female for handling all of my mod's interactions with it, but it remains to be seen if I will actually go through with this or not.
