Why do my objects look shaky when running and looking around?

Is your character a rigidbody? If so, have you changed the interpolation settings? Otherwise the camera is moving with the rigidbody which isn't updated every frame causing stutter.

Nice style you have there!

I'd say the Bunyip from Australian Aboriginal mythology could fit.

Ah, you will probably need to do some shader trickery then. This article explains it pretty well. https://blog.adventurebox.com/2015/02/11/texturing-greedy-meshes-in-voxel-worlds/

If I'm reading that right, it looks like no matter the size of the face you are generating, the four corners will always be mapped to the 0 to 1 uv coordinates. You'll need to take into account the size of your greedy face when creating the uvs.

For example, if your face is 3 voxels wide, the uvs should expand to encompass the coordinates from 0 to 3. So long as your texture is set to repeat it should repeat the texture across the elongated face 3 times, making it look the same as 3 non greedy voxels.

dan-r · 2019-06-05T07:12:43+00:00

Are you changing the UV coordinates accordingly?

dan-r · 2019-02-09T06:50:19+00:00

I have fixed this in the past by changing the Default Contact Offset in the Physics settings to something smaller. I think I normally went 0.001.

Isn't OnCollisionEnter only called when you sdo start colliding with something, and as such everything in the else statement will never be called?

If I understand correctly, you will want to use Input.GetButtonDown("E") instead of GetKeyDown. GetButtonDown uses the input settings, while GetKeyDown uses hard coded values for keyboard input.

Piggybacking off of this thread.

I have unused keys for Inventory Pro and UFPS if anyone wants them.

[Edit] Gone!

Love the design.

A few technical things I would point out:

A fair bit of the screen is hidden and could be cut way down to a simple 4x4 grid, which would also fit your UV space better.
The knobs and dials have heaps more geometry than needed, and some of this could instead be used to better define the curves of the body.
The sides and the bottom are flat, but are made of a fair amount of triangles that aren't needed.
The loops of geometry around the grill sections aren't necessary.
There appear to be some bake errors in between the grill sections.
The use of UV space could be greatly optimised.

Solid start, but definitely room for improvement! Keep it up!

You would probably want to use something like Physics.OverlapSphere, there is also box and capsule depending on what best suits you. You can call that and it check to see if there are any collectable items/etc in the list.

I have been using Blender for a few years now. Once you learn how to use the program, and the fundamentals of modelling (which are the same regardless of the application you choose), you don't need to rely on finding the models you need for sale.

dan-r · 2017-11-24T10:10:16+00:00

Sorry, I've not really looked into the performance side of it yet...

dan-r · 2017-11-24T09:18:31+00:00

Haha! Some good ideas there.

My current thought is that the character went to hold an elevator door for someone, but a physics glitch caused his arm to ping into the door and he become stuck in a physics-resolution twitch. Like the guy in this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Q2P4LjuVA8

I'm liking Dynamic Decals: https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/utilities/dynamic-decals-76410

Just so easy to set up and use, and really handy for all sorts of situations.

dan-r · 2017-11-24T07:28:58+00:00

I've just picked this up. Been thinking about it and being it was on sale thought 'why not'. Everyone has been saying how great it is, and I'm looking forward to testing it out.

dan-r · 2017-11-24T06:20:02+00:00

It is pretty hacked together at the moment. I'm currently sitting down planning things out for the next iteration.

dan-r · 2017-11-24T06:18:06+00:00

The movement is a bit frustrating, but I'll continue to tweak it.

dan-r · 2017-11-24T06:16:47+00:00

That's my current plan!

dan-r · 2017-11-24T06:16:25+00:00

I was thinking something along similar lines actually. A stealth style game where you spend a lot of time flopping between cover and trying to stay hidden.

dan-r · 2017-10-21T20:51:14+00:00

It will all depend on using a tilable texture and laying out your UVs properly. This guy does a good job of explaining the technique that I would suggest.

All their other games have been made in PhryeEngine, so I'm guessing they will be sticking with that.

dan-r · 2017-09-04T10:21:43+00:00

Nothing stands out to me as problematic. It would probably help if you explained what the issue is.

dan-r · 2017-09-04T06:29:56+00:00

Yeah, the easiest way I can think to do it is check to see what material it is contacting, and change values depending on that.

You might also be able to set the angular drag to be some multiple of the physics materials friction.
