In these regular updates we will bring fresh content to Hive, in the form of our game coding experiences; IBT is a developing PC game - the one to have future Crypto interactions.
Hi people been a while since our last post but we have been on holiday...yay!!
Abandoned boats
Here we are again straight back into it!! This week has been about adding a few little details to IBT Island to do with fixing some waves and adding tides also for a little more detail we have added random boats. These boats may appear when reloading a game or appear when starting a new game. some boats will come with the tide and wash ashore or will some boats arrive with somebody aboard them?
Very Happy with Distance
Once again we have found some issues with viewing distance due to the rendering of trees, plants, grass etc. after a few minor adjustments and having the PC on medium settings it ran as smooth as silk. We felt it is important to see over the whole island and still see at least trees in the distance. Finally we can start on another part of the project.
Fixing tides and waves
In this gif you can see two coloured arrows. The orange arrow is a costal wave and the yellow a deep water wave. I've had to separate the wave close the beach and the wave out deep. This had to be done as for waves were appearing on the beach itself and had to be toned down a bit. we have also started to add tides twice a day for a little more realism.
... another update done, another week done - all the best and see you at the next update.
