Week-10

For this week I have been focusing on defensive coding which makes sure my code cannot be accessed from other scripts without going through methods to access them which makes the code less likely to be being hacked in the future.

I have also integrated the path finding into the game & helping Laurence integrate the path finding system into the behavior trees for our Ai which seems to be working well although it is not something we require in our game thus it might be removed later on in the project.

A problem we are having with our source control is that every time we commit & merge our code there are merge conflicts with our code wherein there are large chucks of code added & commented which is really slowing down our progress for the project.

This week we have also made improvement on the Ui such as adding our own text format
for game which makes it visually appealing , a screen shot  below .

 We have also had a class on mesh deformation to have a better understanding of how mesh deformation works which was something needed to understand it better. from my standpoint it is moving vertices based on applying force to the object.

We have found a problem with the animation that was given to us by our animator where in the animations center changes when the animation is played, this should be resolved by next week. Apart from the problem with the axe we have received a new asset from our animator for our shack & will be getting a lab asset by next week.

Week-2 The pitch

For this week we spent our first day pitching our game with a few refined mechanics which was given a go ahead by our lecturers with a few scale backs in terms of the story with a few helpful recommendations such as ways to communicate the story where in we could have audio logs throughout the game. I am setting goals for this week wherein I am going to finish a re usable night/day cycle and work on changing the skyboxes at run time as well. For our second class we have had a look at algorithms along with their time and space complexity which was a good recap for the studio 2 students as it gave us a refresher on the topic. In addition, we also had a look at the inner workings on a linked list (Commonly known as a list). Lastly for our third and final class for the week , we worked on the practical implementations for the queue   and how it would work if it were written without the system.collection.generic library . I have also taken the time to get a better understa...

Week-9

This week we have been integrating pathfinding into the game, this is the one I had worked on for my trimester one project thus It was working well with our project & was easy to integrate but it is not being used by the behavior trees yet thus we are not going to show this mechanic for our presentation due in a few days. We have also managed to get our new poster for the game which looks pretty good and reflects on the game design we implemented into our game. We don’t know if the new poster will make it or not but we have high hopes for it . We also have a logo for the game which can be used as the icon for our final build for showcase . We had a few setbacks during integration where some of the group members worked in the same scene & commits to it leading to our scene for the demo looking like Frankenstein’s monster although we were able to fix most the changes the day before the presentation & because we had version controls and...

Week-6 Terrains !

While working in unity’s inbuilt tree system I found a bug wherein it did not render the trees until the player was close to the camera, this problem was something very frustrating at first but after investigating the problem I found that you had to use a speed tree shader in order for the tree system to work properly & render the trees. The shader that I selected was nature/speed tree which can be seen below. Also just as an update, we are not focusing on the low poly art style as it no longer works with our game according to our game designer. For this week I have also started work on the bow & arrow mechanics for our game which seem like a walk in the park as we have worked on similar mechanics in projects for our previous trimesters. We have also received an asset for our shack which seems to be very basic, looks like some cubes were just resized by the animator but our game designer was the one to choose it & has convinced us that it is...
