RuinValor - Birth of Talos

This week has been a busy one. We have been working feverishly to get the terrain generation, destruction, and modification working. During this process we found “garbage collection” ( stuff that is a waste ) in the excess of 12gb. This excessive waste created massive lag on the client and once removed provided a much smoother game experience.

With dual contouring we are able to produce some very detailed terrain that still is destructible like we had originally...

Been a while since I showed the progress on the gorgane here is our newest video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWyf0k2c1iE Let me know your thoughts!

Most of the core code for the movie and kickstarter process is in place. While I am busy plugging away at other things such as art and concepts the coders have been fine tuning some things:http://media.indiedb.com/images/games/1/22/21100/showoff005.jpg This is a very limited version of the dual contouring equation we are using for smooth land. With the he...

So the art has changed considerably from when I first started but.... the idea is that we will use a script and mimic the common parallaxed video for the lore. I figure I can make some quick sketches and put them together to make a very good lore set.... that will explain the story and save us time of trying to do all the animations and such.The purpose o...

This week we have been working with the ai. This is a funny video associated with our gorgane and trying to get this to work!

Things have been rather silent. I have been taking a course on Radio Waves and the management of them through a new system ( not really new but they call it that ) called CBSP ( commercial broadband satellite program ). If you are wondering why the hell I am doing that... my real job is an IT with the USN so I get stuck doing some odd things here and ther...
