Making more Models

 

Making furnishing for inside of a islander's home.

    A very simple update, but, I had begun making objects for the island homes. Can't wait to see how they look in Unreal.

We are so back!

Guess what! WE are back to working on game stuff. What Happened? The short answer is: Life. The long answer is me, the artist decided to do a bunch of commissions for other people over the course of 2024 and had no time to dedicate to geme assets. It was somewhat popular, and made me some money. It helped me increase my art skills as well. What's going on now? Turns out my brother (the lead programmer and co-game designer and story writer) is back in action, and is motivated. However, we have decided to work on a completely different game. I will explain that game more once I have the time to explain it. This motivated me, and now I am back to doing art. We also had the chance to sit down and work on story stuff. This was good and helpful in ways outside of just writing for this game. But heck, are the early parts of story writing so embarrassing. Nothing like seeing your ideas you thought were pretty decent get shot down for good logical reasons. Makes you feel dumb. But it truel...

Stabbing in the Dark.

I've done large projects before. I built a fursuit, created the game Rocket Brigade: https://www.rocketbrigade.com , and another being the creation of Machina and Magic:  https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/367981/machina-and-magic-core-rulebook . One of the biggest tips I can give is "stab in the dark". It means take action even if you cannot see what you are hitting. If you get purchase, then try to strike again in the same place. You don't know where you are aiming when a project gets so big. The size of you project will blind you. So you must try to attempt aiming in correct directions until you finally do. This can be an annoying process, but if you frame it as "practice" or "commiting something to memory" then it is never wasted work. Reminder that motivation feeds off itself. If you are able to make motivation happen, you can keep things rolling. Part of every battle is keeping motivation afloat. The more motivation you have, the more s...

I don't know SHIT

Image
     Ultimately at the end of the day, I don't know shit.      Did I render this right in Unreal 5? The short answer is... no.     Anyways... What am I doing? Yeah? Right? - I think the big thing is, I haven't figured out a way to build everything from scratch. One of my biggest gripes about the unreal 5 engine, is the fact I cannot start with a completely blank project. It comes with a sun, baked lighting, some cool other effects, and a bunch of default settings I am not going to use. I spend HOURS wondering why everything looked extremely high contrast and saturated - which I found out was caused by the camera deciding to auto expose itself. If this was the real world, AWESOME, I would love a camera that corrected lighting and made it easier to see. But for a video game? No, this isn't going to work. Well, it's not going to work for me . Did Paper Mario have this intense of lighting? No. So, me trying to delete things without making the fun...
