lovely doggos 🖤

I absolutely love your character models btw <3

I think once I've announced this new project publicly I'll do some behind the scenes posts/videos showing the amount of failures that have gone into the process :)

ty Ian!

I do this too, it takes a lot of iterations for me to finally land on something I am happy with for the character I have in mind

ty! I don't really do anything for dark scenes just let them get darker. I tend to keep my textures quite low contrast which helps

all diffuse texture btw, those highlights are baked in

I think these are probably the best shoes i've made so far I like his little socks peepin🧦

This is a point and click escape room game, around 30-60 minutes long

man I love a good survival horror guy with glowy orange bits to shoot 👌

haha naw, just bushes cut without much thought 😄

these HD texture packs for low poly games are getting out of hand

ive been massively awol on socials but only because im so focussed on this. Once I've got this game in a spot where its ready to announce it'll be back to regular dev updates, wishlist begging and hopefully some new devlog videos :) <3 u all!!!

haha, excellent 😄

hella cereal!

i am working very hard on 'Project 4⃣'

basically spent the last year practicing art stuff and iterating on design documents

should be dope when I can finally announce something

Congrats man! Can't imagine how much work has gone into this :)

been replaying Life is Strange, shaka brah

I think workflow is pretty dependent on what ur use case is, im fumbling my way thru tbh but I have a free plugin for Blender that can take iOS face tracking and map to blendshapes. I use mocopi pro and livelink in UE5 to record body mocap (quite janky). Not sure how to do both simultaneously tho 🤔

im using Sony's Mocopi Pro (had to import from the US), its far from perfect but gives a decent base to do some cleanup. Arms in particular tend to be offset by x amount but I use an IK rig to fix that

haha pretty much xD

the last couple of days have been spent creating 52 unique facial blendshapes for my SH3/HL2 fidelity character model and fine tuning my face/body mocap workflow

I now have the world's most janky indie mocap setup in my little office. Works great for the fidelity im going for :)

You're not wrong but there are a lot of visual similarities I feel I may need to course correct a little. I already went through this with Hollowbody where I had a lot of people saying it was a Signalis copy 🤔🤷‍♂️

yeah shits all over anything I could do haha

guess my next project isn't going to be set in a small British coastal town then 🙃

hmm interesting, only difference really with my setup is I'm using triggervolume overlaps (on enter/exit) to start the logic

Thanks Alexis! I will try both of these approaches, I ran into the culling problem a while back when switching cameras and ended up turning that stuff off completely as I'm not rendering anything particularly modern or demanding 😄 I didn't know about Owner No See, would be very handy if that works!

Good call but its not that unfortunately, I already had to disable occlusion culling because it was playing havok with fixed camera angle switching
