Week 8

Before

After

The lecture this week explained how materials are created. The most interesting one is the video that shows the process of concrete mix to strengthen to tie between the steel. The task for the day is to use CrazyBump to further make the material used more realistic, as shown above.

Week 7

Even after ensuring the the file path is correct, the material still isn't showing on CryEngine. Will ask tutor next time.

Resolved:

Having the material image as cryTiff format solved it.

The lecture today went over the choice of buildings that we have for the assignment. We were also shown some examples of decay throughout time that might give us an idea of how to approach our design. Bumps of materials were also explained. The task for the day was quite challenging for me and although it took awhile, I could successfully imported a simple object.

Assignment 1

Fully developed CryEngine environment

Environment

Strategy statement:

To tackle this project, I decided to focus on "mystic" aspect of the island. Since CryEngine isn't the best software to capture facial expressions of the characters, it was quite tricky to do horror or suspense genre. Fantasy-themes would do well since it focuses more on the environment rather than the character.
