Regarding discussion on u18chan on releasing WIP build for reupload.
What we have done since 0.671:
4.106 Glassroom Bar Merecedes dress flickering fixed
4.107 Tower floor3 Jhoro (Megan's sister?) sprite naked on click.
4.?? Did something with Shelly doggystyle file. Forgot what.
4.108 Ginger sprite update - head improved, naked bottom created.
4.109 Ginger blowjob - tail improved, controller updated, jacket dress/undress on click.
4.110 Ginger missionary - head improved per sprite, controller updated.
4.111 Ginger doggystyle - controller updated. Climax in when pulled, otherwise out, regardless species.
4.112 Ava scenes sound added and synchronized. Doggystyle got cum drip working and head second angle on scene end. Chat sprite ...
4.113 Jaymee cowgirl vaginal version.
4.114 Zoe standing sprite front and back (in the Tower floor 9), clickable.
4.115 Zoe standing sex vaginal version.
4.116 Taight sex scene added player species variations, still WIP.
4.117 Rose footjob transparent leg (turn on click), added pu55y
EDIT:
Forgot about Megan straight mode (pseudopenis removal)
Added Bella (recolored Kira + Bella's head) doggystyle
EDIT2:
Crissy doggystyle vaginal version
Carmen doggystyle second scene (Crissy scene mod)
It's not enough for full build everyone would run for download immediately, but it seems worth of minor update when we are reauploading.
What we have to do before releasing it, even as wip: To Be Done
DONE Necessary : Background for Floor9 dialog
DONE Carmen sprite recreated as seen on screenshot by StrangeWeirdRacoon, need to finish that.
Necessary TBD: Adjust Jaymee dialog for anal/vaginal scene option
Necessary TBD: Adjust Crissy dialog for anal/vaginal scene option
(Almost done): move RLD girls around, i.e two girls to Aztier, one or two to Walk, one to Tower garden floor - need to discuss which one to where
DONE for point above TBD backgrounds at least for respective dialogs
DONE Necessary: Remove "Continue", rename Main menu to Restart Fixed "continue" game
DONE Necessary: Fix melody bacground flickering in NPC zone
Optional TBD: Improve Ava sex sound - I doubt that I'll ever find time to do a good sound edit.
Necessary TBD: Modify player species shapes recently added to Taight sex scene to fit that scene animation.
I'm a way short on my free time right now.

Understandable!)! Keep an eye out on u18, there's an imposter 1r2k5ng09df8s3...

I have some free time finally so I'm doing some work on HTH. There is a good chance I'll have some time till end of January and maybe part of February. So I would like to create the build 0.672 in that time. I'm not sure about March but I know for sure that I will have absolutely zero time from April to October so I need to release 0.672 no later than in March.
1r2, there are some tasks I cannot do, specially player body shapes for species, also dialog modifications. Is there a chance that you could make some progress with these?
Weird/strange Racoon, if you are around, please upload SVG file of your Carmen sprite. not needed anymore
-
I still have the unfonished project on hand, but sadly very limited time. Ill try to get it set up for march if i can.
-
Do we still plan on finishing the vixxxen oral scene?
-
It's considered for future, but not for this build. It doesn't have animation at all so it will take an effort even if I use scripts and create some math model to move segments instead of manual animation. Of course you can animate that manually, but it would take lot of time to make the animation to look neat.
-
Keyframing is pretty easy, and the cum, and **** animations can be salvaged
-
1r2, please send me your modified drawings for player species so I can integrate that in scene(s).
That's the last major task for me for this build and my available time may run thin any week.
-
I still have yet to finish it. CS6 corrupted my last save, but I'll just do it in CC
-
1r2, I have an important update on my work. As it turned out, my time will run out on next Sunday. Please keep sending me what you have done on species update during the week and send me everything you have by Saturday evening of your time. I'll have free time on most of Friday, Sa and Sunday morning to do what I can.
It's not like I'm going offline then, but certain change in my life will prevent me from doing any work on HTH except something little at 1 a.m. or so.
-
The progress won't be substantial enough to be implemented. On top of that the linework still sucks :| I was planning on going over it again.
-
... On top of that the linework still sucks :| ...
Crow never put much effort in drawing player. It's a bit similar to normal p0rn, where no one really looks at the male actor so almost anyone with big c0ck can be in it.
For some species, just recoloring default player could be enough. Some need stripes. Problem is where body parts are moving relative to each other, which creates discontinuity possibly breaking stripes.
The problem is with third person POV scenes, where tail is notoriously missing and Crow has never drawn a head, even in Jade 69 scene where it would be much better to have one.
Anyway, I really have to finish build 0.672 on Sunday, before my half year hiatus from HTH. If there won't be player species implemented even for one scene, so be it.
In that case it's deferred to next build most likely next year.
-
I finally have a stable schedule, but I work over ten hours every day so progress is still slow. It's a miracle that I've even been able to get this much progress on hth2.
-
1r2> Yes, I appreciate your work on HTH. I know that life in your region is generally harder than in my region.
Neither of us is professional developer and we all are doing this on our free time as a hobby. So progress is slow.
Still we keep beating Crow on effort results. :-)

Crow never put much effort in drawing player. It's a bit similar to normal p0rn, where no one really looks at the male actor so almost anyone with big c0ck can be in it.
Crow talked big about having all these plans for fully customizable player characters, but put about as much effort into it as he did into his hygiene. He doesn't wanna admit it but truth be told he doesn't know, and doesn't care to know, how to draw male anatomy, because it's not what he's interested in.
Effectively the male player is just a dildo that **** the girl so the user can self-insert. My advice to you is that instead of playing it up, play it down. Shade out or make transparent anything that isn't touching the girl, and just make the **** something you can select by clicking. I remember a lot of flash games (especially Mittsies) would just let you change the dong by clicking since they all do the same **** basically, and most of what was there was just floating magic dongs.
Unrelated, but have you guys considered just...Scrapping this crap and starting over with the artwork in a different system or engine? Let's face it, no one gives a **** about Crow's dumb, poorly implemented puzzles or PS1 era 3D rendered backgrounds. And his code is a garbage fire. What with Flash being dead, have y'all given any thought to this just being some sort of "select a ****" **** game in Unity or another common engine where you just boot it, pick the girl you wanna play with from a selection screen, and then play with them? I dunno how doable that is but I know I'd love to just thumb through a list of girls with bios/pictures, pick one, fap to their animations, and then go on with my day. I know we kinda-sorta already have that with the selection screen, but at this point I'm also wondering if we should just quit futzing with Crow's garbage and make our own thing.
"Tabby's Whorehouse" Featuring the girls Crowchild doesn't want you to ****!

...

Talking big about plans, that’s actually one thing Crow is really good at. :-)
Regarding going big myself, I’ve already considered that. Problem is, that Unity or other 3D engine is like 20x more complicated than Flash and it takes at least 20x more effort to master it. To learn everything from system basic, to map design, building full rigged 3D NPC models, programming proper body physics model and animations, fluid model for cu/m, learn to master video processing for light effects, to master data loading management so assets are loaded seamlessly not causing lag spikes.
It’s not small goal. No way in hell can Crow ever master that.
Such task requires talented nolifer with no friends nor hobbies who would devote all his free time for at least an year. Or someone who doesn’t need daily job. It’s no chance for a guy running a household with wife and kids. I can’t ever succeed at such big task.
Yes, everyone can just download Unity and put together some templates and paid assets using tutorials. That way you can have something in a month, but the result will be garbage. You have already seen how such build looks like. ;-)
There is no point in doing 2D animations in Unity. It’s unnecessary complicated engine and 2D animation in 3D environment never looks really good. It’s a wrong way.
Actually, Flash, even dead, is still the best for simple controlled 2D animation. It’s like if Flash has been designed for HTH :-)
We don’t have that many remaining things to do left. There is one scene with drawn assets and missing animation, half of NPCs don’t have dialog yet, creating player species drawings and implementing that to that many scenes is quite an effort, but it’s something we can have done in an year or two. With that, HTH Offline will be the first and the only ever finished HTH game. :-)

-
I have the build ready. As soon as Huk updates Carmen and Crissy dialog, I'll add that in and share the build with you for testing.
If no one reports major bug in a week, I'll release that on F95zone.
F95zone uploaders have no problem with downloading build over TOR/OnionShare. That way I don't have to bother with file sharing sites as F95zone manages their own accounts on many file sharing sites.
-
My build is around 85% complete. 4 scenes left and I can start bundling everything up for permanent seeding.
-
Hi, I'm back.
I managed to recover my hth assets and stuff folder from my almost dead hdd.
Is there anything that I can contribute? I have some alternate outfits sfw files, like cop racquel or halloween Bella.
Also noticed that the Aleta character sfw file in the current build has the valentine's day dress, but Aleta doesn't has a doll play menu.
-
Onion share it to either me or tabby
-
Or upload that anywhere and post a link.
-
I packed everything except for the RLB builds.
Completely unorganized.

This is awesome.
-
Thanks Racoon.
That Rio dress and legendary Racquel cop outfit is only in that "old HTH offline" files. It's not in original HTH files. It seems like it was drawn by someone else, not by Crow. Because he doesn't delete concept and unfinished stuff from his files. Unless he lost that files and restarted from older backup.
Anyway, I didn't know that someone has already done (and abandoned) HTH project by the same name.
Do you know anything about that guy(s)? The only reference in readme file is to non-existent u18chan thread.
It seems to be abandoned in 2016, that means even before I discovered furry world for me.
However, I can't simply copy that dress to my build because it doesn't work with moving bodies. I have to split that drawing into multiple pieces and attach each part to respective body part so it moves with it. I have no time for that unfortunately so it's deferred until next year.
-
Huk hasn't been online for almost a month. I'm still waiting on Carmen dialog major update and Crissy minor update.
That's the only thing I need for the build. He might run into RL difficulties that prevents him from doing that.
I have to consider plan B for Carmen. Either someone else to write a dialog or to draw a swimsuit for her new sprite so current dialog makes sense again.
-
I can rewrite the dialogue if I can find the time. Most of my down time is spent on hth2
-
Yeah my IRL sucks. I'm very sorry for holding up everything.
Threw my back into it and got Chrissy totally re-written, Carmen re-written to be sans-swimsuit, and 1r2 stated that Zoe had no dialog so I went in and wrote that.
If anything else needs to be done I will find the time.
I'm so sorry. I feel like a piece of ****.
-
Thanks Huk,
I really appreciate your contribution, even more that you have to overcome IRL hardship to get this done.
Carmen update is good, Crissy update is really cool. I wonder if you live close to that kind of neighborhood. :-)
Zoe dialog needs some changes to fit in.
-
Nah, just...Girl I fell in love with. Didn't work out. But I think that's why I like Crissy, her fursona looked somewhat like that.
I'll make the Zoe corrections, do you need anything else?
-
Huk> I know there is no cure for that kind of pain, but just better luck with next girl!
I've tried dating 10+ girls, it always failed soon, before I've met one compatible with me. I'm with her almost 20 years now.
Well, married live is not wonderful neither great either, but it works.
When you have Zoe done, I'll share build with all 3 of you.
I cannot keep my computer running at night these days so I'll sent links by late evening or midnight of your time (I guess you all live in American time zones) and it will be valid to noon or early afternoon (depending on your time zone).
If you are in mood of writing, pick any character with missing dialog by your preference and create a thread in NPC personality section so everyone knows you are already working on that one. I'll add your dialogs to the next year build.
-
I've dated boys and girls, never works out. I'm just hard to get along with.
Zoe is done.
You should use WeTransfer. Up to 2gb per upload, and it auto-deletes within 7 days, or less time if you like. Then you don't need to be online and it'll die nice and fast.
I don't know which ones are and aren't available. Just gimmie a list and I'll start slamming my head against them.
You can also just pick one. I give no **** as to which one I'm doing, I already did all the ones I can even **** remember.
-
I'm sharing build v0.672 tor test purposes now. Check your PMs for link.
It will be valid only for ~16 hours.
Please don't upload the build anywhere before it's pronounced OK.
-
Now why would I do something like that
-
1r2> Someone may accidentally. I've also sent link to Huk and W.S.Racoon.
-
OK, I will check it out.
As for the additional scripts, let me know what characters/positions need to be done, I will get it all done.
-
I have to stop sharing now.
If you have missed that, let me know and I'll setup sharing again.
For HTH build 0.672 I'm not gonna add anything more in it, I just want to fix bugs as you report any. This build will be released when no bug is reported in a week.
Suggestions, dialogs and more content are for next build, most likely in winter.
-
I just need:
1. List of characters that need dialog.
2. The sex acts each character performs.
I'd also be interested in re-doing ones I didn't do for the sake of consistency.
-
I'm just reminding, please test v0.672 and report bugs until the end of weekend.
If someone else want to download the build for testing, send me a message and I'll setup a file share again. (You will need Tor Browser to access it.)
I want to release this build in few days.
-
No bugs found yet?
Please report any today. Thanks.
Otherwise I'm gonna release the build as is on F95zone tomorrow.
-
I think it's all good.
-
I did not find any problem
-
Build v0.672 is released.
Download is available (at least) at F95zone in HTH Collection thread in the OP.
