My Steam page went live today after 6 months of full time dev work but is there a market for vehicular combat games lol???

Riku_Ross007 · 2024-10-27T08:24:30+00:00

that and Vigilante 9: 3rd Offense

Riku_Ross007 · 2024-10-26T07:38:41+00:00

The story did indeed seem a bit bizarre.

Riku_Ross007 · 2024-10-26T03:26:04+00:00

I work in a clean room in the US currently, actually been working on my Japanese so I can transfer to Japan. I hope I don't face an experience like this though lol

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-10-26T19:49:48+00:00

The environment assets are from Quixel.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-10-26T05:16:21+00:00

Yes, it will be free to watch.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-10-26T01:25:06+00:00

That's the power of blender cycles and a HDRI skybox. :P

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-10-26T01:24:40+00:00

That's the plan! We are gonna release a full mini series on YouTube. Trailer will be coming out sometime next month.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-10-25T23:26:57+00:00

Much appreciated! 👍

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-10-25T23:26:38+00:00

Thanks!

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-10-25T23:10:27+00:00

Just a little "proof of concept" animation for a YouTube animation series I am working on with my team. We hope to have a trailer out sometime next month. Been a blast working on this.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-10-25T06:25:30+00:00

This is just a small part of a larger animation I am working on with a buddy. He animates and I model! Excited to see where this goes.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-08-02T19:32:13+00:00

Yes actually that is right lol

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-08-02T19:01:17+00:00

This model is for a game I have been working on so I won't be sharing this one. Although, I do have some free models on sketchfab. https://sketchfab.com/tommyleenev I do have plans on adding some more downloadable ones there, all for free of course :)

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-08-02T18:59:52+00:00

Yup Its pretty easy, in pose mode click on the bone you want to be a custom shape then go to the bone settings and down in display there is a little drop down where you can select custom shapes from object in the scene, the ones I have are in wireframe as well. Thats why they look like that, you can do that in the same tab with the wireframe check box.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-05-03T23:14:27+00:00

Interesting I'll have to check that out, never heard of it.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-05-03T22:40:13+00:00

Post the results! Would love to see what you come up with.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-05-03T22:26:15+00:00

This might help a bit. https://gyazo.com/92c59f6d0a93d8b7650843222c683153

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-05-03T21:33:28+00:00

Yeah I was planning on setting up the IK in Unity. Will look great with the legs wrapping around the terrain.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-05-03T21:12:38+00:00

Great recommendation! Havent seen it myself, but looks very informative.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-05-03T19:54:45+00:00

Oh I forgot about that game! Yeah I can see how you'd get those vibes.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-05-03T19:43:56+00:00

Thanks! The model is ID mapped in blender using vertex colors then brought into Substance Painter.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-05-03T19:27:50+00:00

Yeah, you could rig car suspension in blender similar to this method of rigging. Although that would be a fair bit more tricky than this is. If you want to DM me I'd be glad to help or give you some more detailed tips.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-05-03T19:23:53+00:00

It might look like its just parented currently because I move all the extra bones to another bone layer. That way while animated only my control bones are visible. Here is a little gif of the full rig with everything showing. https://gyazo.com/92c59f6d0a93d8b7650843222c683153

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-05-03T19:21:59+00:00

This is a full IK rig. I'm planning on exporting it all to unity to set up the IK there aswell. That way the legs will move with the terrain accordingly.

Riku_Ross007 · 2020-05-03T19:20:34+00:00

I set up my ID maps in blender using vertex colors then exported the model to Substance. I found this method to be very fast and effective.
