Basic HUD and level design continue to add items, textures and still fine tuning those movement mechanics including climbing and running. It's looking better and feeling better but still a long list of to dos.
Next up
More asset creation. This 1907 bayonet will be at the end of our Lee Enfield rifle but also around trenches and other areas.
Maybe not enough various in the death animations?
Without any AI implemented yet, the opponent just stands there and gets shot. Working on that next!
Lots of technical difficulties are popping up, from dead computers to engine crashes. But we're still making progress! Here's a sneak peak at one of the latest levels being developed.
Idle animation is almost done. I made the bones visible so you can see how each one has to move in a particular way to make the whole body move. We then blend these animations in with other ones, such as walk/run, look up and more.
Working on the targeting control, to make it a bit more random and chaotic for battle. Yellow lines are for debugging.
Need to add a bit more variation in my death animations since they just fall forward or backward. Death isn't this neat and tidy.
Behind the scenes look at the first person modeling and animation. While the soldier won't be seen, hands and arms (and sometimes feet) will be. So we can cull out the body in first person-only model to make it more efficient.
Optimizing the first level so it can be played on slower computers but still enjoy the realism that's been put into this project. It's easy to be inefficient, so it's time to optimize.
I won!? Still not sure I believe it! I'm still playing on the PS1, so this will be a huge upgrade for me! Now I can't say I've haven't won anything, anymore! Thanks so much to the Game Jolt!!!!
