Gravity Collider Wire Cut Test

azmaybe9 post Gravity Collider Wire Cut Test from patreon

Cutting ropes or wires with physics on was a surprising PAIN IN THE ASS to figure out. After trying other methods for a week and screwing up a ton with them or hating how they were done, I retreated back to Gravity Collider to figure out my own way that reduced the amount of steps it'd take. SUCCESS! (Also with lots of cinema...

azmaybe9 post Beidou WiP Progress Vid from patreon

I know it's not the full thing, but you can see how hard i'm going at the destruction this time! No smoke or particles yet but i'm excited for them after it already looks this good!

So many upgrades going into this video that i'm really proud of!

But yeah, I really needed that 2 week break to refresh myself to get...

Beidou Storyboards

azmaybe9 post Beidou Storyboards from patreon

I know the storyboards are drawn like crap, (Which director ones are usually) but i'm surprised at how much it can clarify timing, direction, and camerawork when the pressure of the environment and animation isn't there.

There were quite a few times where I was surprised that i'll have to make small animation timing adj...

Potential to finish the fight tonight.

Now that I have FL Studio's fps higher than the vid instead of lower, I can actually perfectly place sounds without replaying the same damn area 13 times every time I drop a sound in. How tf did I ever sound edit with 40% accuracy holding me back?

4 Year Anniversary!

As a celebration for my 4th year as a creator, I wanted to make the music for my vids more available. They've always been in the MEGA drive but never like a video for someone to click or anything.

Neko VR version cancelled

azmaybe9 post Neko VR version cancelled from patreon

I'm sorry about this one.
This project is much too old with bad workflows for a VR version. Especially with getting results that look like they're from VrChat on the Oculus Quest which would require days of rendering straight without being able to do anything on the pc.

I'm gonna work on new stuff and new VR things. ...

LOTS of bug fixes and updates on this one. I've gotten insanely paranoid of visual mistakes ever since the whole feet-through-shoe thing with Michiru.

Neko Vid Sound Alpha

azmaybe9 post Neko Vid Sound Alpha from patreon

It's taken a lot to get the video this far.
But i'm getting close to that ending! I'm still spotting a few areas that need sfx like the hallway stuff getting knocked over by her tail.

Also the zoom-in on their face standoff scene needs a light to appear in front of their face. Idk how I missed that or I accidentally...

Neko Vid sound editing almost done

This has been so hard to keep the motivation up of working on. There's so much interactivity in every moment it's pretty insane!

But i'm almost done with adding sounds for the first pass. Then the 2nd pass will be panning and volume of stuff.

No voice actresses yet because retaking each time soaks up SO much time....

Retextured Neko socks

azmaybe9 post Retextured Neko socks from patreon

After learning so much about texturing and UV stuff throughout my years, I finally understand how to get this fixed and looking ok! (Not perfect but good enough)
The UV's are absolutely screwed to hell is why this was so painful to attempt. I couldn't just adjust the UV because there's multiple Neko projects separated in p...

All that practice and learning led to this!

Chaos Destruction Relearn

azmaybe9 post Chaos Destruction Relearn from patreon

I think it's safe to say that this is the way to go with things.

After a bit more tweaking to figure this out this morning, I got mostly the results I wanted! This can be controlled with even more kinds of fields but I really wanted to get something looking like this out. Will attempt the Neko vid apartment soon!

Full Building Destruction Test

Why is this shit so hard!?

It also runs very poorly and requires baking. The objects "pop" at different controlled times that I haven't adjusted yet for anything specific.

Fracture Iterator Plus Bullet Tools Test

azmaybe9 post Fracture Iterator Plus Bullet Tools Test from patreon

Been trying to learn the thing I was missing with destruction and that was constraints. What the hell are those and what do they do? They make impacts spread their energy through the rest of the object. So instead of blowing through a wall like it's paper, pieces are pulled gradually with the impact.
This video shows the ...

Michiru Executable Potential

After spending a day or so rendering out the Michiru VR video, I had an epiphany.

The destruction is done in Blender so it's like playing an animation in UE4.
The books falling all over the place are recordable in UE4.
And it's all VR compatible.

Technically this is the first video that has the potential to ...

I don't think Youtube can play VR videos that are unlisted on any apps like Gizmo or something. Nor is it easy to do so anymore because of their bs. So here's a direct link for download as I still recommend using DeoVR for watching! Just tested it out and... damn, this vid hits different. View Post
