Modelling Continued

Today's session focused on adding further detail to the model house for smoothing purposes by adding edges loops to the corners in order to maintain defined edges on the model.

This proved to be quite time consuming as errors with adding edges loops began to appear.  This became apparent when pressing 3 to to show a preview of the model, faces had doubled by creating more edges.  This was corrected by starting from beginning rather than trying to correct the model by adding or removing edge loops.  After starting over with the process the process was complete.

Reference Images

Further mood boards were then created to assist in the detail and authenticity for the creation of the model house.  The images in the mood boards are to be used a reference images for the model to create the house to look authentic to its time period in the 19th century.

As stated, these reference images will be used to create model windows, window frames and doors to look authentic to 19th century Victorian & Georgian architecture.

Group Meetings

Another team meeting took place today for group members to inform each other on individual schedules and any problems that have occurred up until this point.  At this stage the group is now progressing past the block out stage for each individual section.  Chandler has begun creating further mechanics and controls for the character, whilst Patryk has begun adding further detail to the creature character.

03/05/2019 Sound Files As part of the final elements to be added to the game, each member of the team downloaded sounds from Freesound, (Freesound.org, 2005), for noises to be used in the individual sections.  The sound list requirements had already been listed earlier on in development of the game for each section.  However, by this point in the games development, some slight changes have been made to the sound list as some sounds were no longer required.  This had been discussed as a group for the needs of the game due to changes within the story.

As a result, Owl tooting and window scratch sounds were removed from the list.  Sounds that were downloaded for the exterior section were...

24/04/2019 Unity Today's session saw the last assets being added to the scene.  This included the rocks being placed around the scene in varying sizes and Patryk Kuligowski's gargoyles being placed in the scene with its textures.    Fig 318 - Rocks. Patryk created two types of gargoyles for the scene.  One gargoyle is complete, whilst the second gargoyle has limbs missing to align with the games horror theme.   Fig 319- Gargoyle.   Fig 320- Gargoyle. Initially the gargoyles were placed on the paths leading towards the house.  However, it was decided to place the gargoyles on top of the gate posts leading into the house's inner compound.   Fig 321- Gargoyle.   Fig 322- Gargoyle. Chandler Pope-Lewis also created new terrain for the scene, improving upon the original terrain, as the new terrain had more detail that included twigs.  Fig 323 - Improved terrain. The final elements were to check that all model...

21/04/2019 Additional Assets Today, further assets were created to populate the scene, as well as to add additions to the shed interior ceiling.  Roof panels were created from the duplicated shed roof.  These were textured to match the existing shed and imported into the Unity scene in order to cover up spaces found in the sheds.    Fig 306 -Shed roof interior. A rock and logs of wood were also added to the scene.  Development was aided by watching two YouTube videos on rock creation, which also helped with the wooden log development.  Rock editing,  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYeQ-8GTFxs , (Spitzer, 2012), Stylised Rock,  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Vf9XDw1jMY , (3dEx, 2018).  A basic shaped was created for both assets with vertices and edged being pulled to match reference images in figure 310 and 317. Fig 307 - Rock. Fig 308- Wooden log. Once a shape had been created for both of these assets.  All asset...
