[5SD037] Behaviour Trees

So in this blog post I will write about my latest work. Lately I have mostly been working on artificial intelligence. For this project I chose BTs (Short for Behaviour Trees), because they are popular and I think it something every programmer should know. Whether you are a gameplay or artificial intelligence programmer. I first spent a lot of time researching and trying to find a good and cheap library/framework implementation of BTs by someone else. However I came to the conclusion it […]

But before I got to work on that one and after I had added all the other animations I got feedback to fix one of the running animations since […]

Big Game Projekt: post 3

Better late than never.
Now that all the problems in my previous post has been solved and everything is working  the way it should, in before I just jinxed it, I have finally been able to do some actual animations without some error popping up. I have also gotten myself a gif program that allows me to record directly from my screen to ease things up and so that I can start showing my work properly. So without further ado, here […]
