Merry Christmas!
🕑 Added 2017-12-24 17:44:11 +0000 UTC I wish you all the murry and all the amazing, scaly and fluffy things! I'm not good at written holiday wishes, that's why I drew a picture instead! ^^I want to say thank you everyone for the amazing support you're giving to the project of my dreams... our dreams, even! After all we're all making the game together :}
Planes of Existence has advanced very significantly over the last year, we have all the foundation laid out for most of the features to function, lots of planning and programming work has been put into it, lots or re-doing and re-thinking too, but all that is to make it a better game in the end.
It only lacks some art though, even though Hizathri (lizard/dragon species) are done pretty much and modeled inside-out, I'm still continuing to work on them, rigging and making the animations is an extremely big task.
Honestly, if I were to make rigging in Maya, it would be already done, and I'd be steadily making the new characters move. But I chose Blender for this, all because I want everyone to be able to participate in modding the game eventually.
Blender is free and everyone can just download it and make new content for our game, isn't that wonderful? However to make it more... eer.. suited for the task, I have to develop entirely new tools and pipelines that haven't just been done for Blender before...
It takes time (and a lot of frustration) to do it, but it's going pretty well regardless! I had a slow start with scripting but now it's actually quite fun.
For those who are familiar with that software, here is a sneak peek of a custom script UI that I'm making to manage animations and export them to UE4 effortlessly. In a nutshell, without technical information, its a decent-sized toolset I'm developing to make my blender rigs work well and be easily exportable (because standard blender has some issues with that). And of course, the tool going to be available, as well as the rigs for all modders later on.
Anyway, thank you guys for supporting all our hard work we're putting into this game. Love to everyone <3 and have great and happy holiday time!
