Fire Dragon Redux
🕑 Added 2019-06-25 02:16:52 +0000 UTCThe dragon redo is underway for Ice and Fire 1.8.0! As of today I'm willing to assume that I am half way done redoing dragons as Rats is finally released and summer has cleared out a large portion of time for me to follow my hobbies.
The biggest changes to the dragons are the models, but just as important is a redo of the AI and behavior. Part of this is new flying behavior, new attack behavior, and even new fire behavior. Speaking of fire, I've recently finalized its new look for dragon breath. Although this isn't what was originally planned, the realistic fire effects were neither flexible or performance-friendly, as they were extremely laggy. Now, fire moves quicker and is no longer an entity, rather just a combination of hundreds of particles and trigonometry. This too should save on performance.
The flying redo is going great as well, as can be seen by the fire clip. I plan on working on Ice and Fire and Fossils for a bit and making them as bug-free as possible, while also preparing for the inevitable update to 1.14.2. Feel free to ask any questions, I'll make sure to answer as many as possible. Also feel free to leave any responses/ideas for patreon rewards, something I'm interested in looking into.
