Project Atral: The Riddle of Durendare

About the weather system.


I have fixed the weather systems and their collisions. There's now rain and light snow with Niagara. They will not fall through roofs anymore. But they are very demanding on the CPU, so i'll try to make it possible to deactivate both of them for weaker computers. I can not guarantee it though.

For the next playable alpha build i recommend CPUs comparable to:

  1. Ryzen 5 5500 (six cores)

  2. Ryzen 7 1700 (eight cores)

Any CPU weaker or older than that might not be able to handle Project Atral, while the weather systems can not be turned off.

The animations are all work in progress.

I've made a horse statue: "founding stallion" of Stud Durendare. I'm not sure yet if i'll keep the penis or not. I was just trolling a bit there. But if you like it, tell me.

Very quick fix before my development pause. The credits are now fully accessible by the main menu screen and you can close them with the button too.

The cottages are now done and have been placed into their final positions. What's left to do is fill them up with furniture and make custom collisions.

I've worked on the criollo definitivo model. It will be the base for the ingame horses. I have to refine it a bit, then i can reduce the polygon count and texture it.

New features:

- Audio settings menu

- Simple day-night-cycle

Fixed problems:

- Double pause menu

- Oversized buttons

The widget of the audio settings menu works fine now, yet the settings themselves not. Working on it!

I've achieved a lot today. The protagonist and player character - Mikhal - is inside the engine and playable! You won't see his head though, because of first person perspective. Time for a pause! My body hurts from sitting around for so long!

I've started to make the first texture. This is Rabica's fur color. She's the leader of the herd.

New contents:

- Stairs to the cottages

- Wooden pillars for the cottages

- Door numbers

- Mini Map frame has a higher resolution now

Fixed problems:

- Newly placed trees are no longer standing rotated. Thanks to @KingCobra1998 for the help!

It was a sh!t ton of work to do that, but the settings menu and the main menu are now mostly working! In the main menu only "new game" and "quit" work so far. The closing of the settings menu is still buggy. Working on fixing it!
