Without any AI implemented yet, the opponent just stands there and gets shot. Working on that next!

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.

First pass at the German Mauser 1898, one of the common rifles used early in World War 1. This is a step towards creating our German soldier. We have the AI, now part of the rifle. Next will be modeling and animating the soldier.

More asset creation. This 1907 bayonet will be at the end of our Lee Enfield rifle but also around trenches and other areas.

We're still working on the Gewehr 1898 German rifle: adding more detail, UV unwrapping the mesh to apply texture via a texture painting app, then baking it all into the final game asset. Since this is so close to the camera, the quality needs to be high.

Revamped the targeting system to be more chaotic, like battles tend to be.

There was a bug where, if the unit was coming from the flank, only the one corner solder would be targeted, essentially getting all the bullets.

Readjusting and remaking some of the mechanical animations for the Lee Enfield rifle. It's now more accurate.

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.

Testing enemy AI is complex and visual debugging and feedback is an integral step to figure out what's going on in real time. Thanks to our AI programmer James on getting the enemy AI in.
