1\/4 walkaround<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The \u00bc walk round was this Monday, and we received feedback regarding our gameplay, narrative, and technical needs. Regarding the presenting technique, our team found that improving the gameplay is more effective than charts and verbal explanations. Through the first presentation round, we verbally explained gameplay and fantasy, and our audiences were confused about the project. Through iteration of the presentation, we decided to improve the gameplay to deliver our project more directly to the audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Programming<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Instantiating networking<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The programmer set up the new work. Now, two players can see each other in the same environment and share an asset in the same space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Projectile & collision<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our team also worked on the projectile and collision within the passthrough environment, which means that currently, players can throw objects toward each other and be blocked by real furniture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Programming<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Performance test code matches unity stats, which means next week, our team can run a performance test on passthrough to determine the polygon control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Setup the room<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our team also set up the testing room on the fifth floor for the Mixed reality development<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Art<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

One of the big problems our artist had this week was that the texture of the 3d model was always translucent in the passthrough. It took us some time to figure out how to bring the opacity to 1. We first checked the tree leaves because the plain might not have been double-sided. However, it was double-sided. Then, the Artists made it single-sided and imported it to the unity file; weirdly, it works. We do not know why this happened, but all the tree leaves and similar objects will be imported as single-sided to avoid translucent effects in the passthrough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week, the first character models are also finished by following the direction of concept arts. And we will start the process of rigging the models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

VFX<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

We created the attack VFX for fire and water-type monsters. We will test out the Quest 3 mixed reality in the coming week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
