This sprint I was assigned a modular set to create the basic interior rooms out of, with three different textures for the walls. (a Square Brick Texture, a Cement Texture, and a Metal Wall Texture) The actual modeling itself was as basic as it gets, I just made a few different shapes and sizes of wall along with a doorframe, with a couple floors and ceilings to complete the set. The interesting stuff this week was the textures, all of which I made in designer! The brick texture was probably the most complicated, and the one I’m most proud of. Starting with a brick generator, I used some gaussian spots to add some variance to the shape of bricks (using the spots to “cut out” chunks of the perfectly square bricks) and that worked pretty well! After that, I used a grainy looking noise map to fill in the black part of this mask to add in the noisy texture of mortar between bricks Next, to add some color variation to the bricks, I used a flood fill node, which was able to identify all the...

CAGD 370 Blog Post 5 - Final Sprint and Postmortem

  The Final Prototype is officially done! And this final sprint has definitely been the most intense yet. While not perfect, I’m very happy with the game that me and my team have made, and I feel a lot of motivation to start a brand new project! But before I get ahead of myself, it’s a great time to reflect on the last two weeks and this project as a whole. To start off our final sprint, I once again made adjustments to the pole vaulting. I made the impulse of the vault scale with how close you got to the pole, which meant that not only could the player not get an immense movement boost from a standstill, but also that there was now a “sweet spot” to aim for to get the most vertical height out of the vault. To help players seek out this sweet spot, I also took the time to create a charge-indicating progress bar next to the player that would fill up the closer they got to the sweet spot. The bar progressively fills as the player approaches the sweet spot After this, my lead de...

  Judgement day nears! And sadly I don’t have too much to show for this week as finals in other classes have swallowed up most of my time. However with most of them finally out of the way I’m clear to focus all my time towards this project over these next couple of days! The real meat of my texturing work this week is this Exterior Trim Sheet. I tried to group together as many models with similar-ish materials as possible so that I could get textures applied efficiently. Here I’ve created a trim sheet consisting of metal, tree bark, wood, a beige stone texture that worked pretty well for the pipes, and a separate, rougher metal texture for the motors found just outside the facility doors. I spent a lot of time compiling a list of all the models in our project along with reference images, so that way I could organize them into texture sets based on similar materials/texturing needs This plan should help to really accelerate the texturing pipeline over the next couple of days, so t...
