Winter Screenshots

Hi!

Here's those winter visuals in Godot.

In terms of shaders, this winter system is much more capable compared to Unity, it has more parameters to provide different results and the texture blending should also be more realistic.

Dev Update (30/11/2023)

Hi!

Here's a quick dev update.

This week I started polishing and preparing the test build for bringing most of the assets from Unity to Godot. This preparation involved optimizing the current build (especially VRAM usage) and calculating some "rendering budgets" per upcoming Godot map...

Dev Update (27/11/2023)

Hi!

Just a quick update that I'm going to still polish some of the attachment system / inspect animations today.

I basically found a better method for handling the inspect animations in code and avoiding the situations where you get "locked" into these anims. when they are playing. Wi...

Contractor work (Update)

Hi!

Since there are a lot of things happening behind the scenes, I decided to give a little update on what's going on in the contractor world.

Basically the premise of this post is that when I decided that semi-risky port decision, I went to so called "safe-mode" for a little while wh...

Optic shaders (Scopes)

Hi!

When it comes to scoped optics, I have been developing a custom set of additional optic shaders this weekend in Godot.

These scoped optics need quite a bit of custom tech since and it's a delicate balancing act of trying to get the best visual result without tanking the rendering ...

Attachment System (Preview)

Hi!

Here's a short example of the new attachment system design.

This approach is utilizing those simple 1x1 inventory slots and provides a visual grid of available attachments under the specific attachment slot like muzzle or optic.

You can activate, remove, swap the attachments...

Dev Update (24/11/2023)

Hi!

Here's a quick dev update.

I have now almost the entire attachment system ready. There's still few loose ends in terms of code but the main functionality is already there and weapon UI (when inspecting) is fully working.

My current method is based on manually selectable atta...

Inspect mode V2 (Attachment system)

Hi!

Here's the improved version. If you compare this to the last post, this version has much better return animations without those sudden stops / stiffness.

I will post the next update when the attachment UI and mechanics are in place.

Inspect mode (Attachment system)

Hi!

Now when the AI system is mostly done, it's time to start porting the attachment system to Godot and this time with few upgrades.

Here's an initial inspect mode for the "fast-paced" way of handling attachments. This is still pretty stiff (improvements are coming) but you can see h...

Dev Update (18/11/2023)

Hi!

Good news!

Most of the AI system is now fully ported. There weren't any major issues and I think I even made multiple small improvements to the previous Unity version.

Even though there's an AI overhaul coming at some point in the future, this current system should be pretty...

Dev Update (15/11/2023)

Hi!

The AI porting week has started pretty smoothly and so far there have only been positive surprises since I prepared for the worst outcome which would have been bunch of missing AI-related engine features.

So far the biggest relief was that Godot and .gLTF file format supports anim...
