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.
Next up
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.
Maybe not enough various in the death animations?
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.
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.
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.
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!!!!
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.
More asset creation. This 1907 bayonet will be at the end of our Lee Enfield rifle but also around trenches and other areas.
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.
