Now shut it before some idiot comes crying how we steal buzz from other games with short pointless messages while conveniently ignoring the fact most everyone on this site communicates through short pointless messages. We're on the main page again...
Now that you mention it, there was this status.

You're better off getting the hand of a few editor programs and creating one yourself. Like I did! I've made tremendous progress! Uh, over the past three years...
Creating my own music? Gah...I wouldn't even know where to start...
Garbears?O.o
A (very) mild expletive from my gaming world. You're half-right on its real world origin.

Press buttons! And if that doesn't work, press some more buttons! Just like perl, except not.

Oh, I get it...you just don't want to be the only one who's taking three years to finish their character. Not falling into that trap!

Umm, no? Because I'm not irrational and self-absorbed to the point of worsening other people's lives to feel better about myself? I'm an asshole, sure. Doesn't mean I'm an asshole regarding everything.

Hmmmm...

...sorry about that.

New version of Yoshimura Noriko uploaded. One new event, and had to rewrite a phone story because I'm an idiot who's too enamored of his own puns to forget I'm supposed to be writing a translation from Japanese. (I feel like throwing in a random "BAKA~!" here, but meh.) That said, other than a couple profile bits and music, I am pretty much done with Noriko, barring feedback-related changes or epiphanies. I'm still just getting started playing with ideas for my other custom character, Hamaguchi Takako. No promises, though.
(Off-topic: the reason this update is both small and late is because, despite indications to the contrary, I hadn't actually gotten around to playing Katawa Shoujo until yesterday. So...yeah, still doing that.)

That's...a good question, actually. I haven't even replaced them in my own game file yet. I think I was waiting to see if anyone was going to fix the pointy nose thing, and then I got sidetracked.
(Off-topic: Have many thoughts on Katawa Shoujo now...still processing. At least two stories there that I will play again.)

Does the "pointy nose" really bother you that much? I mean, I can think of a workaround for it (Erase the nose area on the "contours" layer?), but it could be finagled.

Honestly, it only bothers me now because I know it's there. When I look at it at the size it will be displayed in-game, I don't even see it, just as I couldn't see it on the built-in tachie until I looked at them in about 200% zoom.

As someone who can see the other side of his room without his glasses on, I must point out the tachies would look weird missing the nose contours and nothing else. In the base resolution settings, that little smudge's almost invisible, whereas the absence of it stands out like a sore thumb.

Just out of curiosity, do the Miki and Keika tachie also bother you, then? Neither of them has the nose contour bit (though I cannot confirm whether they have any other part of the layer, since...well, even in higher zoom settings I can't tell for certain what else is in that layer beyond lines defining the outer edge of the face).

I believe you know the answer to your question. Let me confirm, they do not.
Having a splittin headache, so Overseer out. You pups take care of newbies for the next 9 or so hours, 'kay?

For the record, I suspected that was the case, but I appreciate the confirmation.
What I will infer from that is that you think the Noriko tachie in particular look better with the contour lines than without (you may feel free to disabuse me of that notion upon your return). I am entirely willing to abide by that judgment.

Uh, yes, absolutely! I did in no way argue for the sake of arguing and actually formed a respectable opinion based on solid, logical- You know what, I'll admit I fucked up before I slip into this sketch.
Poll's open, everyone. After taking a decent look, my bet's against the current contour lines. I recommend we thin and/or lighten them somewhat, as to have them fit her face and complexion better, and if we can't, off they go. What do the people say? Marrend? Boss?
I totally didn't notice that Miki and Keika didn't have the contour. Or, at least, the nose bit. So, logically, it shouldn't bother me that Noriko wouldn't have it either. On the other hand, all my "material_m" girls have the contour, unaltered.
Though, Dozen's idea of thinning it out sounds interesting. I might play around with that later.

Marrend, my appreciation for your efforts goes beyond words. Thank you very much again. Just don't forget to pick up Dozen's eyelash fix!
BTW, you never mentioned what you thought of my use of Masako in Noriko's story. I want to make sure you feel she's properly represented. I was at one point kind of thinking of having Masako "appear" in a scene, but decided that I didn't want to require someone to have Masako installed in order to use Noriko, and if someone didn't have Masako installed there would be no reason to show her anyway.
(OT: STILL dealing with the personal fallout of my two-plus-day Katawa Shoujo playing/viewing marathon. That game is near-pure win. Would love to discuss it via PM or whatever with any interested parties. KS forums are too filled with legacy-osity for me to fully wade in over there, but that's what I get for being almost as late to that party as to this one.)
