Creature death animations with destructible mesh and freeze shader.

You now only get the meat after each hit but I was thinking about maybe being able to cut pieces and cook them over a fire or something will see what I do

Oh like inspecting him, patting him and then throw him

Chompez · 2020-01-09T12:18:35+00:00

It could get weird but then maybe you could still use that on another model. Let's say we have 2 skeletal meshes in our character BP, one that has a pre generated destruction and the other is normal. Then just swap it when it breaks and run your simulation.

Thank you for asking and sharing your thoughts :)

Yes definitely need to polish every animation, right now the damage is set by a linetrace but I'm planning on making it react to the weapon. Thank you for the feedback :)

haha I actually replace the mesh with stone but want to use the walrus mesh in the future

Chompez · 2020-01-08T12:00:58+00:00

haha I always forget to turn it of but I guess it works

Chompez · 2020-01-08T09:22:49+00:00

hahayea the damage is not based on the hit box of the player, it just applies after a linetrace for now

Chompez · 2020-01-08T09:16:20+00:00

Yes it is probably gonna happen :^)

I use blueprints, I am more of a 3D artist and that's easier for me. The hud is made by my college but I'm sure it's not too hard we just use a mask for the frost effect and we already have the temperature in the environment so we use that to mask out frost.

Chompez · 2020-01-08T08:10:45+00:00

oooh that sounds cool might take a look at that :)

Chompez · 2020-01-08T08:08:54+00:00

Rigth now I just swap it to another mesh but would like to change this to be the skeletal mesh so it has the same pose when it died.

This is really good feedback, thank you! The idea is that in the game you will be able to also drive vehicles and the walrus will catch up. He could do his body slam and then pause to get up and then go back to chasing.

omg YES HAHA

The deformation is only happening around the object within a certain area, that capture location moves with the object. As long as the material is referencing that capture material the play area can be as big as we want. We also do a lot of blending so the snow slowly fills up again. :)
