Adam Milovanovic -3D Modelling - Main Ship

The Main Ship is a crucial part of the game getting the turnarounds and basic concepts from Jackson I was able to create a basic model from it.

BASIC MODEL

This basic model consists of a basic model using editable poly to create different shapes to fit the turnaround images.

SHIP REDEFINED

We redesigned the ship to give it a better look, we added turbines above the wing and under the wing and blasters.

TEXTURING THE MAIN SHIP

To begin with the texturing we used a spaceship texture images and applied it to the model.

To texture the model go to modify tab and from the drop down list select UVW Unwrap. 

To being Select the chosen faces that you want to be textured, after selecting the chosen faces go to the projection tab and select planar map and select the following X, Y, or Z axis and click again on the planar map and scroll up and open the UV Editor and select the chosen area in which you want it.

From there I did the four turbines,

Next I did the wings,

Adam Milovanovic - 3D Planets

One of the main assets to be used within this game is Planets. The Basic layout for this game was to travel from planet to planet to achieve different levels. three planets, sun and space.

• Earth
• Venus
• Mercury
• Sun

To Begin making the planet model. Firstly needed to grab different textures for the different planets.
Earth Texture with Cloud Texture

Venus Texture

Mercury Texture

Sun Texture

Background Planets

Mars

Moon

All These textures from gathered from a website called 

http://planetpixelemporium.com/planets.html

To Begin modelling the planet, open 3DS MAX and create a sphere.

From there give it a basic size of around 50 on the radius and about 30 segments.

Next open the Material Editor

Select the diffuse map by pressing None

Select the Bitmap Button:

Which will lead you to this screen and select the chosen Texture Map

Then show material in viewport and then the planet should have the texture attached to it.

When Creating the clouds for the Earth, create a slighty bigger sphere over the Earth.

Open once again the Material Editor and select an Empty material,

then select diffuse and the bitmap, continue to choose EarthClouds which should give you something like this

Copy the diffuse map by right clicking and dragging the map to opacity

Which you will end up with something like this

Kent Rayner - Early Basic 2D Prototype [Status Update]

I managed to get the simple 2D gameplay working but with a few hiccups that I will try to work on the weekend; such as the enemies not detecting each others collision and ending up at the same spot. I think the problem is that the update function keeps overwriting the collision system and sending the ships on the same spot.

I think the solution is ray casting collision, which I will look at.

Scripts I've done;
Bullets, collision with enemies, destroy enemies when hit
Enemies, following Player and destroying it when hit, speed up over time
Player movement, mouse pointer as aim, camera following player
