The unsolvable problem in the settings menu caused me to rework it. It's now only accessible by the pause menu. The settings menu got only slightly reworked. The "back" button is bigger and i had to put in a background.

I've worked on the criollo definitivo model. It will be the base for the ingame horses. I have to refine it a bit, then i can reduce the polygon count and texture it.

It was a sh!t ton of work to do that, but the settings menu and the main menu are now mostly working! In the main menu only "new game" and "quit" work so far. The closing of the settings menu is still buggy. Working on fixing it!

Placed a lot more trees and bushes. Placed the tiny hermit hut on Dan's Dot. Worked on the vegetation performance. Next up: texture performance (decreasing resolution, decal ivy instead of texture ivy on the stables and riding hall).

I've made a horse statue: "founding stallion" of Stud Durendare. I'm not sure yet if i'll keep the penis or not. I was just trolling a bit there. But if you like it, tell me.

A few behind the scenes pictures for you, if you're curious.

Despite horrible neck pain, i'm working on the foal model, which is supposed to be in the herd of horses on the island.

I have worked a lot on the cleanup of the horse model. It's now ready for UV mapping and then texturing.

The cottages are now done and have been placed into their final positions. What's left to do is fill them up with furniture and make custom collisions.

I've achieved a lot today. The protagonist and player character - Mikhal - is inside the engine and playable! You won't see his head though, because of first person perspective. Time for a pause! My body hurts from sitting around for so long!
