Happy Monday Science Team!!!May the 4th be with you! The team is doing some major overhauls to our production pipelines to make everyone's life easier on the animation and programming side. Taurus Island level designs continue, and lots of Taurus related writing & recording happening this week~Here's our to-dosies:
finish initial planning chapter 6
set up improved locomotion and Idle pipeline
reduce making from scratch
make a base that focusses on Idle, forward walk, and forward run
Unique characters will then get additive layer adjustments.
Make Base Idle and locomotion for Male characters
Reduce keyframes in existing Walk and Run cycle
Make a finished male Idle animation fit for the male sex workers
ensure these animations can be easily modified for other male characters in the future
Help stepbro & papa with update to the first person animation setup
Simplify setup so I can animate directly on the arms
Allow stretching / breaking the arms & joints to make things look better in first person
Make camera easier to animate during attacks to frame movement better
Go through planned characters and categorize walk cycles
Get started on Slicer walk cycle
Push animation sharing plugin after more testing(It is still quite crashy and a lot to set up per skeletal mesh.).
Fix the FPS and Full body changes to fit what we want from the meeting.
Will be back and forth the office this week (Monday and Tuesday)
Most likely have to deal with combat bugs after the changes with Turtle.
If nothing else start fixing some minor OCD problems (Default values not being auto set in bp nodes by example, seems to have broken again.)
Create all the getters so that the sandbox subsystem is the scene data provider. This will ensure the data is centralized, and any future update will only require updating this object
Finish all control types setup sequence. Everything is already done, but it needs refactorization to fit the new data provider approach
Finish Bonnie dating timeline
Start either Mino dating timeline or the one shots
Resting before the finish line
