Targets 29/2/2016

Rhys - Texture the portal device

Aaran - Finish and implement the HUD, get opinions on the HUD and the loading screen to choose a final design

Daniel - Polish game and address player feedback (example, shop placement, making enemies not run into the water, center mouse position when opening shop)

UI Designs - In Game Designs & Loading Screens

Here are the designs for the in game hud, we wanted a helmet interior feel to it so wen with vectors and transparent colours, one idea was to have the health bar on the left and one health bar on the top, I put some different colours in there to spike opinions, the team are leaning more towards orange, kept the original font 'ROBO' with italics in certain areas and an inner/outer glow, the text is just placeholder, an example of what it would look like in game was added, and a dash bar was added just for cosmetic purposes, after our next testing session I hope to refine any areas that need refining and have it in game by the end of next week along with the main menu. Loading screens have also been completed, did quick gif images to show how the icon will be animated in engine, we also plan to get feedback on the loading screens when we do our next test in order for refinement:

Updated Portal Model

Portal Update:

Model-Maya

Model-Engine

Old texture applied to the base of the updated model, still will need to sort out a texture for the portal rings and then probably redo the ramp and base texture.

Player character animations attempt

Tried to get as much as I could done for the character's animations atm. The skin between the wrist and hand twists far too much to be able to position the hands where I want, and the shoulders have to rotate around completely in order to pose them without this issue. Scale is also wrong on the guns and I had to size them up, but with no clear scaling for them between modelling and engine imports. Can't do the shotgun currently because it's difficult to judge the scale and get the hand onto the pump at the moment.

Shop controller functionality

Sorry for poor quality, I can't for the life of my get OBS to not freeze and crash on my PC (which is good enough to handle what I'm asking of it)

Shop without Oculus

Using the head to rotate, the player can press A on the button to use it.

Shop with Oculus

Using the analog stick and a button, the player can select buttons and purchase items.
