Big Game Project Week 5-6

So i forgot to write a blogpost last week so this one will be about both weeks.

I have been working on the the boss, the second enemy and props for the world. I will mostly talk about the boss and enemy in this one.

I have finished the final mesh for the boss. It have been, not hard but tiring. I have had to make hom as smooth as our main character, and he is two times as tall, so there is a lot of edge-loops i have had to place and move to make them fit properly and make his forms correct. And it takes on your mentallity when all you do is looking at that. So i only worked on it a couple hours per day and then worked on other tasks so I would’nt go mad. haha

As you can see there is necklaces on him to make him look kinda rich, he also have rings but they are hard to see without textures.

Then we have the Ghoul, our second enemy. I have finished the final mesh one him and UV mapped him, rigged and started to skin him.

After i started skinning i noticed i had messed up a little with the mesh. The edge-loop to on the top of the shoulder bicep should have gone closer into the armpit in the bottom to make it better for animations. But as we will have to live with it for now, we dont hae time to fix small things as we are running out of time.

I also made the bandages on his head a seperate mesh. So if we want a third enemy in the future you can make it invisible with alphas in the texture and re-texture the rest of the body to look like another version of the same enemy. We could do this to save time and i think it would work really well.

Next week we will have to do the animations for him aswell so we can put him in the game.

Next week = crunch! We have BETA on friday and we have to make the game sparkle and work really well.
Fix spells, a tutorial, work on gameplay trailer and a lot more. So it will be an interesting and tiring week.

I will probably share some screenshots of the game next week aswell.

And for the end of this blog post I will share a size comparison of the characters i have worked on. Mokthar who is the guy in the turban for those who dont know, is 1,65m. Thanks for reading.
