Chilly DevLogs from Alaska ! #38 Wires and Rocks
Welcome to a thirty-eight DevLog for Alaska Gold Fever!
Hello travelers!
Howdy, adventurous gold seekers!
We've got some electrifying updates from the Klondike in this edition of the Alaska Gold Fever devlog. So, grab your pickaxes, polish those nuggets ( š ), and let's dive into the world of ART! (and technical stuff)
Powering Up!
Those villages need some electricy!
And a prospectors need some lines for their work! How to do that in Unity? Its not just a single "line asset" that you can use. We need a specialized tool to make those cables!
It's called WireBuilder and it's veeeery usefull in that kind of situations.
First you gonna make a approximated lenght of your line.
With WireBuilder, crafting cables is a breeze. Simply place the start and end points, adjust the curves to your liking, and voila! You've got cables snaking through your scene like the veins of the Klondike. It's so intuitive; even a bear could do it (well, almost).
Once your cables are in place, say hello to the electrifying age of cable creation !
No more wrestling with spaghetti-like confusion; successfully using this tool lets you effortlessly design and manage cables, lines etc in your game.
Chippin in!Rocks, Gold, and Blender - The 3D Prospector's Toolkit
Prospecting for gold in the Klondike isn't just about shiny nuggets; it's about the rugged terrain too. So, let's see some magic behind this!
Seems simple, right? Just some rocks in cavern (so rocks in...rocks...?)
I will show you how this looks like from BTS - look at this graph:
Sculpting, texturing and and meshing even simple rocks can be harder than you think! You must posses a decent wisdom about what are you doing. 3D artists are trained well in those things but they must learn a lot :D
Your rocks are now ready to be scattered across the Alaska, waiting for prospectors to uncover their secrets!
In next episode: the fastests hands on the wild west!And there you have it, prospectors!
Happy crafting, and keep the gold fever burning!
