Ships Assets 1

Character completed

Ship Asset research

Doors

The ship will include both double and single doors.  research has shown that ships doors appear like this.

A simple fire door, for our ship we want it to be set in the nearish future.  It was decided that the doors would be sliding doors.

An the door handle for the rooms would be like this.

In terms of the double doors they will be sliding glass doors, when they join they frost over.  There will be a silver ship symbol and it must be touch to open the doors.

Beds

Ideas for the double rooms.

Under bed storage for the ship beds to maximize space.

The bed will be floating and bolted to the wall.

They will have night stands fixed to the bed to make it one complete unit.

There will also be strip lighting under the bed to produce extra lightin for the room.

Ideas for the single rooms are to have them quite compact with alot of storage.

Lighting

Lighting for the rooms will include the under bed lighting but also a ceiling LED spotlight in the shape of a halo.  For ther hall lighting this will simply be spotlights.

In the dining room the chandelier will be a series of interconnecting tubes of light.

Misc.

In the dining room there will be fake windows showing a video of a sunset over the sea.  This may also be in the bedrooms in the shape of a porthole.

The double room will have a tv at the end of their bed which will be glass of some sort.  These tv's along with digital picture frames will have water damage.

The tv's will also being showing static.

In terms of the picture frames they will look like old gold picture frames or simple wooden picture frames.

Object Pick-up and Drop

Working on button press using kismet, but this happens instantly e.g. pick-up and drop on the same place.  Looking into using Uscript for this instead and altering pick-up to be on touch and then drop on button press.

The Character Further on

Mudbox

So after modeling the first tunnel section, I've brought the finish (low detail) model into Mudbox where I can add more detail and normal map the model at a higher detail and by doing so make a more real life looking cave system.

Cave Modeling - The long and slow of it.

So cave modeling, it sucks. It takes for ever to actually model a cave seeming as they are a natural creation with annoying shapes. Anyway I've spent a long long long time researching the best way to go around modeling a cave system.
Anyway after a long time I've final figure out a system that though may look crazy is actually a good way to model a cave system.
The following images are what the cave system currently looks like, before it has gone into mudbox.
