A single style, livelier villagers
The procedural style leaves the game, the shoreline gains a coconut grove and mangrove, the villagers work with new animations and the quick tests run in seconds.
How it went
The valley now has a single style. Houses, trees, characters and animals all come from models generated in Tripo, and the option to switch to the style made by code has left Settings along with the code that supported it.
The shoreline gained a continuous coconut grove, with 77 coconut palms, and a mangrove of 203 trees along the two rivers, both editable in the valley scene. The menu flight passes freely along the south of the shoreline again.
A single style, livelier villagers
The valley now has a single style. Houses, trees, characters and animals all come from models generated in Tripo, and the option to switch to the style made by code has left Settings along with the code that supported it.
The shoreline gained a continuous coconut grove, with 77 coconut palms, and a mangrove of 203 trees along the two rivers, both editable in the valley scene. The menu flight passes freely along the south of the shoreline again.
Thirty-five Mixamo motion clips were adapted to the skeleton of eighteen characters: those who work reap, dig, count on their fingers and wave, and the traveler jumps, punches, yawns on waking and gets up from the ground. In all there are 41 animations across 21 characters, covering 26 different gestures.
All of Pedro's lines gained a generated voice, with 73 more voice files. The quick tests, which run in a single process in about 15 seconds, became the everyday test, and the full test suite is saved for before each build.
Featured commits
- The light ingá tree leaves the list of backfaced trunks: without the chunk it measures 4% and goes back to being discarded
- The test suite gets a live panel in the browser: progress, failures and what is running, read from the testar.ps1 log
- The suite panel warns when it stops without finishing: a log with no news or a panel switched off no longer look live
- The composition's loose pieces (trees, props, pier, bridge, rocks) and the shoreline vegetation are now read from the authored scene
- The shoreline tools and the seed of the loose pieces return, respecting the oil-palm grove, bridges, houses and landscaping reserves
- The shoreline gains the continuous coconut grove and the mangrove along the beds of the two rivers, editable in the valley's composition
- The UIDs and the import that the editor generates for the photo tools and Caramelo's bark go into the repository, and project.godot is put in the editor's order
- The Mixamo retargeter example points to the FBX files in the project folder, outside the repository
