Added head bobbing. 3 different animations for idle, walk and run. Probably too much for actual gameplay, but it'll work for an environment showcase

PoV : You're a confused dog

Operator search is bae

made RE-style inspection, for fun

I made a censor/pixelation effect in Unreal. I probably won't use it for the project, but I wanted to experiment and see if it can be done

Finished the statue models for the environment. Since they are not super important assets, I skipped manual retopo and got lazy with UVing. If there are issues I'll go back and fix them. (I don't think it's necessary but I pixelated the nipples and genitals just in case)

Some statues for the RE-inspired environment. I'm adding details to the t-pose version, then I'll work in fixing deformations and pose specific details. I used the base meshes from the Blender starter assets, and references poses from TrueRef

Yeah I changed it quite a bit

What do you mean search with Google??? You ARE GOOGLE?????

Very early blockout of the new environment, the care center from RE Requiem. I'm debating whether I should take more screenshots to make a more accurate copy, or just limit myself to the screenshots I already have, use different reference pictures, and make it a concept interpretation instead

More patterns. Same material setup, only changing the input pattern

working on a new environment. This is a marble floor material for it

Went for a walk for the first time, are these stats ok? "10799cm stride" 😭 (I accidentally picked "walk" instead of "cycling" in the tracking app lol)

My 2nd clay sculpture attempt, a sleeping baby deer this time. I tried letting it dry a little bit and then carved some details and corrections afterwards, it worked really well! Can't wait to paint it

I tried clay sculpture for the first time. I made a frog dino thingy

I tried an Android build as a joke, but it kind of runs?? My phone is 7 years old at this point, and the game is targeting a SteamDeck and mid-range PC, so the fact that I'm getting single digit FPS at all is a miracle (ignore the wrong spawn point)

You know you're an environment artist when you immediately recognize bricks

You can also include Emojis in UE Blueprints. Forgive me father for I have sinned

So the next thing I programmed after making the renderer is the corruptions (I have my priorities right)

The platform-specific code (orange) does: 1-Read the list of pressed inputs 2-Call "Update()" every frame, provide inputs and delta time 3-Receive and display the rendered image, and play the list of sounds, and status (eg. highscore). To play it inside UE, I only need to implement the orange part

I implemented color palettes and 2D tile renderer, the first real milestone of my C++ game ""engine"" It mimics rendering capabilities similar to the SNES and Sega Genesis: 480x270px (16:9), and 64 colors. I'm making it platform-agnostic, so it can run standalone or even inside Unreal itself

I should be banned from programming

What does "Parent Size" say? and is output size say 0 for both width and height? (double click in an empty space in the node graph if you don't see it)

Quote post with an old piece you like!

Fixed the major bugs. It needs some polish, but it works! (ignore the arrow, it's for debug only lol)

FLASHING LIGHTS WARNING A super rough prototype of a wide overhead-ish type of camera, with "overrides".I like it more than a close third person PoV Useful for interiors and tight places, show focal elements, and to help with composition and art direction #gamedev #unreal

Yes I vibe-code : I vibe to 2010's techno while I handcraft the shittiest C++ code known to man

Export to unreal, and set the material domain to "Deferred Decal" and the blending mode to "Translucent". and voilà

make the decals on top of the original mesh, and make sure the UVs are correct

The raw baked map is not tileable, so I used a photo editing software, Affine it 50% vertically , and the patch tool to get rid of the seams. The end result looks like this. I also made an opacity map
