Q/A on the toolkit (expand)


Q: Why is it taking so long?

A: The toolkit is something that has always taken back seat to other things. I work a full time job and work on a farming sim game at the same time. Its just not something I can work on all the time.

Q: Why are there no other animatronics yet?

A: Animatronics require models, which take forever to create properly, they have to be modelled, rigged, unwrapped and textured and then animated. It's difficult to implement features into the toolkit without a working animatronic as placeholders only get you so far. So I modelled the testwolf, so I wouldn't have to stop to create animations. The others will follow in time.

Q: Are there going to be room sets based on other locations?

A: Most likely. Again it's a case of having to model these things and not having access to my modelling software for a few months now.

Q: Why not model in blender if you need a licence to use 3DS max to model?

A: 3DS max is just so well put together, on top of being what I was trained to use at university. I've made attempts at using blender before but it just isn't as flexible or to the point as max.

Q: Will the kit support custom animatronics?

A: I intend it to but there is so much to consider. Having got back 3DS max I'm looking into a mix and match type feature where you can add pieces to an animatronic to make them without modelling.

Is he a... you know....

Hi everyone, I wanted to put my project back out there after taking some time off. Fnafkit is a game about creating custom fnaf games with no need for programming. I'm also looking for anyone interested in helping out! https://gamejolt.com/games/TKFNAF/444860

Lightweight object recoloring test. This test is looking at coloring defined areas with as little excess data as possible and uses NO mask maps, alternate materials and does not break object batching (won't melt the PC when you have hundreds of swatches!)

If you're wondering why the next build is taking so long. here is the answer.

Buttons ver 2- jumpscare Test

Grey boxing the first layout for the game, But got very distracted making this arcade tunnel. But its starting to take shape at least.

Modular stage kits are the next addition to the decor tab. Once all its skins are properly textured.

I've decided to look for people who can help contribute assets to the game. If you know how to 3D model and unwrap and want to help out, give me a message. I'm also offering to pay what I can for contributions.

Tall walls are all modeled and intergrated into the engine and work seamlessly with the previous two wall styles. actual wall skins for this set are incoming. A new test build featuring these changes will follow up soon.

VERY early test of very basic systems in my new project. Do your work, keep the lights on, and everything will be fine. I really want to gush about some of the things not seen here, but will save that until they can be shown off. FnafKit who?
