ERA – Week 3 of Production

This week I mainly worked on the player input class we set up to handle the input the player gives to control a champion that is being updated on the server. I also made sure the champion and its GUI is updated correctly for the network.
The setup we chose for our network was to have the mother-instance of all game objects placed on the server, and also mainly updated on the server. Only necessary data like object’s positions and rotations […]

Week 2 – The animation of the Bear

Sorry for the late post of week 2, the post should be posted last friday.
During week 2 I have worked with the major animations of the Bear as well as starting with the rig of the next model, the wolf.
The major animations consist of walk, Run, Bite, Fish, Fight and Idle. Even if some of these was already started on when the week started I fixed the looping problems that the animation had.

So we went through a load of testing last week. What would be fun to play on, what challanges on the levels should we have etc.

The first thing I did was to try and space out the maps, so you could acually steer […]

Week 3

During week 3 I only worked with the animations, for now I have only worked on the animations which are essential for the character such as turning animations etc. At the moment all the animations are quite rough and I will start polishing them during week 4.

I will show all the animations from the players point of view, which is from behind the character. 

Turn Animation

This is the turn left animation, when the player turn right we will mirror this animation, […]
