Just need to add some corrective joints for his elbows and knees!

April 5th Weekly Update

This wasn't a very exciting week, and admittedly I didn't get a whole lot done.

I did manage to get all the retopology, UV mapping and baking done on the dude I've been working on, so this week I should be able to get him rigged.  ( I've already started setting things up, but wasn't able to finish it in time)
<...

March 29th Weekly Update

This week, as seen in the video, I took the time to implement what I've been working on for the last couple weeks, or at least parts of it.

As seen in the video, you can now activate the second sight/ enhanced vision(Don't know what to call it).  It will deactivate on any complex action, so anything more complicat...

Game build for all Patrons

This build was previously released at the end of February for the higher tiers.  Its unchanged from then, so there is no reason to download it again if you already have!

March 23rd Weekly Update

This week wasn't a super impressive week, but I took care of some technical stuff that I'll need to get to at some point.

Typically its not smart to update to a new engine version unless there is a really good reason.   For Example, the current version of Unreal Engine is 4.24, while I'm still using 4.22. &nb...

Dude Images

Not appropriate for public posts is all.  Not 100% done, but I've got the figure and most of the broad strokes as I want them.

March 15th Weekly Update

I got a bit of the flu from my sister, so that kinda slowed me down towards the end of the week.  For that reason, I'll also kinda keep this brief!

I've been taking a little time to brush up on some aspects of Unreal in an attempt to shore up my weak areas.  This week I took sometime to do a mini course on so...

March 8th Weekly Update

I tried to stay busy this week, although I did take a little time for Super Tuesday.

Starting with feedback from the build.   I tried to make as many adjustments based on the feedback that I got as I could.

Meridiana will now stay in stealth after she teleports.  This actually was annoying me a bit...

March 1st Weekly Update

This was a busy, but productive week!

First I'd like to say thank you and welcome to all the new patrons, I really appreciate your interest and support!

I did put out a new build this week, its available to all the $5+ patrons.  I'll be making it available to everyone else near the end of the month.  &n...

New Build

This is a new build of the demo level, with the changes made to make it easier in parts, and the last section (the combat section) fleshed out more.   It still has the content from October in it, so yo...

February 23 Weekly Update

I tried to spend a lot of time this week finishing the exteriors of the fishing village buildings, so that I have an area you can run around and fight in.   

This type of stuff is not something I have a lot of experience with, so I learned a lot while building this area, and I think that'll help a lot when I ...

Heads up on downtime

My patreon was showing up as removed earlier today.   

This was an error, and Patreon was quick to correct it when I contacted them.  

It had nothing to do with the content, it was simply a glitch in the matrix.

It should be all better now!

February 16th Weekly Update

Houses aren't any less stupid this week!

I continued to work on the parts for the modular fishing village, this time trying to get the roofs and windows done.   I still need a few more parts, but I have enough of the exteriors for now.

Minotaur and Incubus

I said I wanted to get an animation done this week, so I worked a bit more then usual to get this one done.

February 9th Weekly Update (stupid houses)

This week I put a lot of time ( a lot) into trying to build out modular parts to build this fishing village area.  The good news is that a lot of what I did will certainly be reusable for other villages with wooden structures.
The bad news is that this is something I'm inexperienced at, and its taken me a lot of time ...

Incubus Vs Minotaur

The new animation I wanted to do this week, played in Maya

Just an in engine view of that earlier minotaur animation

Joint scaling issue in Unreal Engine and How I solved it.

Just wanted to show off something that I ran into a little trouble with, and the solution I found.

Scaling joints for game animation is generally a bad idea, but in some cases (like squash and stretch, specifically squashing a minotaur's dick)  its the quickest/best solution.  

In my case the alternativ...

February 2nd Weekly Update

I spent some time working on a final layout for the enemy area, and try a few different building types.  

For REASONS I wanted this to be a fishing village, maybe it was abandoned, and maybe the monsters forced the villagers out.  

I want to have some allies, but also some verticallity without going over...

January 26th Weekly Update

I worked on a few things this week, most of them small quality of life things.

The big thing I tried to tackle was making the small puzzle in the dungeon easier to understand.   People seem to have been confused by it.

As opposed to reworking the puzzle, I first want to see if giving playe...

January 19th Weekly Update

I was fairly sick this week, so it made it a bit difficult to concentrate.  

That being said, I didn't want to try to work on anything too complex like puzzles and such, and instead focused on starting to build out the final set up for the monster area of the tutorial level.  

I've got some additional ...

Dirty Image

Hey dirty image from my sick delirium!

January 12th Weekly Update

This week I got the rig on the Minotaur finally completed, and got him in engine.  I've got some materials set up that let me change his skin color, just to give us a little bit of variety.

I have a facial rig system that I spent a lot of time trying to get to work, but it kept failing.  Guess it wasn't build ...

January 5th Weekly Update

Happy New Year!

The new years holiday fell late in the week, so with the extra vacation days, I ended up not doing a whole lot.  

I had a few tweaks that I've made on the minotaur rig, and I'll be finishing that up this week.  

This is more to say Happy New Year to everyone, and I hope every ...

Minotaur oh my!

I wanted to put together something with this dude, as a test and because it was just a lot of work to get him done, and I didn't want to do that and then nothing to animate.

I think it turned out rather well, especially since I rushed it quite a bit.  The important parts worked as well as I could have hoped.

December 22nd Weekly Update

Last one of the year.

First I hope everyone has a lovely holiday!  Merry Christmas!!

This week as you can see above, I took a little time to make throwing things like barrels more useful.  Thrown barrels will break and will now do damage to things they hit.  I've tried to make aiming them...

Making the big Ds fit!

One of the problems with the minotaur, and with the Ogre in the past, was that they have extremely large dicks, and my female models just can't handle it.   

There's a limit to how far I can stretch the models, and though I've learned more and can make the future models stretch more, there is always gonna be ...

December 15th Weekly Update

Minotaur!!!   I worked pretty hard and was able to get all the retopoloy and UV mapping and painting for the minotaur done.  I'm pretty happy with how he turned out and looks.   I still need a proper symbol to put on his belt, but I've got some ideas!

I've also finally figured out  a good ...

Minotaur to hot for Public Patreon

Was able to get all the Minotaur retopology and painting done this week.  

I still need to come up with a good symbol to put on his belt (Replace the triforce that's there for fun right now)
