Hello, Neighbor! Reborn


1 year ago

"updated frequently" i said. last post was over a week ago lol. might as well give an update as to the development.


it's been a bit since my last post, but don't worry, here's a list of something that i've been working on!

-ive changed the house model to be the one included with the template, mainly because it fixes texture issues. the house doesn't have holes for windows above the first floor anymore, but ill learn how to use blender to make it more accurate to where they were in the pre-alpha

-changed the lighting to make it look more natural and more accurate

-the neighbor now has footstep sounds! and the footstep sounds for the player line up better with the walking/running speed/animation. running footsteps no longer play twice per step

-ive began working on the main map again, so now there's grass! as well as a few new objects and items....

-the neighbor doesn't slide in his look around animation anymore

-item sounds are more dynamic, ie you can hear the tv and radio from further away than a hammer or trash can

-implimented some sounds that randomly play while you're in the neighbor's house. oh, also the ambience finally works as it does in the pre-alpha

once i get some more work done ill post another update video, but for now, enjoy some updated screenshots!

testing out another new concept :p

i can't decide how i feel about this. lights will ONLY spark if they are turned on without a bulb. it will not spark if the bulb is removed while it is on. this is the case in the prototype as well. lmk if you'd like this change to be made or not.

the roof now has a parallaxing effect making it look more 3d and accurate to the a2 roof material. thanks @ctarchaxis for sending me the materials!

really proud of myself right now :)

player house is getting a little upgrade :)

(+ an update on development)

also, detail :)

following this post, development will be slow for a couple weeks. my girlfriend is visiting again so that'll be my priority for the time being. i hope you understand, and ill be sure to keep updating you all as often as i can!

testing out some new "weather variations" i guess you could say. thought id upload a vid comparing how they look so far!

and yes there currently is a chance for rain during both normal and stormy nights

testing around :p

what we thinking? prototype house foundation or original foundation for the players house?
