Today i did less work

Not very much done today. I installed Visual studio and dropbox onto my stationary computer so that’s done. Martin did a lot of work today with the states so i wrote my own version of the planning document.

Lighting of Character

This week we have worked on lighting of our character as well as a simpler environment. This assignment was, while difficult, a lot of fun. In my opinion it instantly made the ”character build” drawing look better. Hopefully the picture looks as good to others as it did to me!
Still had some issues with getting together a collection of the artwork I’ve made so far, but as soon as I have it all in one place I will put it […]

Programming assignment 2013-12-20

Started to write the whole input segment to make our space ship move but I’m getting a memory access violation so have to dig a bit deeper to find out why. But we have started to talk about what buttons we want to use. We think that we are going to use the arrows + some button for firing our weapon, space maybe? Overall it’s been a productive day so I’m happy ^_^

Lighting a character

Hey!
Today ill be presenting my lighting/shadowing my character, this is something totally new, everything i have done before is drawing character. So with no experience in shadowing or other coloring stuff, we had a “walkthrough” in class. And this is the result of that!

So basically we took the character from before and worked on it, again, but this time i removed the mantle and his weapons to make it a bit easier. So we got 2 more thing to […]

Day 6

I have now made an InputManager and a GameObject Manager, I’m not sure I have constructed and implemented them the right way but it kind of works right now. I have also played around with the States. Its hard to understand what goes where, for example. where do I put UpdateEvents? Should that go in the Engine class or should i write an UpdateEvent method for each GameState? Right now I put it in the InputManager in a method called […]

University Projects: Lighting and Shadows

Hello, This week I’ve been working on shadows and lighting to create a refined verision of the picture i posted last week. At the moment I’m not done with the bbackground, but that will come soon, just wanted to post out an update :p
There are still some points i could refine (like the hair for example) But I like the rest of it.

State engine

So far, I have finished the state engine.
Right now it only loads one state, the menu state but you will be able to switch states from anywhere, making it as flexible as I can.

I think I will work on the Input Manager right now. Im waiting for Laban to wake up so that we can make up our project plan. That is why I will create core functions that will be independent of what type of game to make.

Programming Project, day 7 – part 2

The collision between players and level objects was bugging me some, so I fixed that. It’s much more smooth now.
Started working on the menu state, added a MenuObjectManager and a vector to hold MenuObjects. Created four of them. Nothing is interactable (is that a word?) but it looks better than the former blank grey screen.

Programming Assignment

We have an assignment in programming in which we have to create a game using C++. I was paired up with Robin Karlsson and since “doing a clone of an classic arcade game is highly recommended” we decided to make a clone of the game Duck Hunt.
We came up with a project plan and then divided some chores.
I will do the basic level, ducks (movement, counter, etc), animation, music and sound manager, configuration file and the menu.
