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.
Maybe not enough various in the death animations?
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.
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.
Readjusting and remaking some of the mechanical animations for the Lee Enfield rifle. It's now more accurate.
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.
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.
Working on the targeting control, to make it a bit more random and chaotic for battle. Yellow lines are for debugging.
Without any AI implemented yet, the opponent just stands there and gets shot. Working on that next!
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.
