DEVLOG #003

Hey everyone again. I was a bit busy today so there was not much progress. But i thought i should share with you what i made so far.

Basically i started working on the building system, we created the basic bulding models: 

Wall model

Roof Model

Floor Model

Pillar model (There is 3 types of pillars but here is a preview of one of them)

Also I started creating the basic needs for the building system (Scriptwise) aswell as the UI and the icons.

The crafting UI has been improved, a scroll view bar has been added, more items and equipments too. The crafting UI is now split in 3 main categories.

1.  Item Category which will contain all craftable items. (Tools, Firepit, rope, wood/stone stacks...)

2. Weapon category which will hold all craftable weapons (For now i just added some basic weapons)

3. Building category which will contain the buildings/furniture that the player will craft.

This is it pretty much for today. Stay tuned for more devlogs! I will be posting regularly.

Alll feedbacks are appreciated! Thank you.

Hey everyone and welcome again!

So I wanted to post this quick update on what's going on and how the progress is going.. Basically i just came back to university and i still have one more month and a half of studying. So during this period i'm gonna try my best to focus on my studies and this project in the same time (which wont be easy).

Since i'm going to be busy most of the time i will be only posting devlogs every two weeks.

All your feedback and opinions are appreciated.

UPDATE

Not gonna be an official devlog but this is what i've been doing so far.

• Scetching different creatures and mutated animals for the radiated bioms.
• Creating a logo for the game and new UI for the inventory and equipment system.

Sneak peak of the creature sketching and the logo.

DEVLOG #004

Welcome everyone! Im sorry for the late devlog guys.. Like i said im a little busy these days.  So i've been trying to improve the inventory system and the crafting/Blueprint system. I tried creating something simple and cool and this is what i finally decided to implement.

When the player press tab this menu will appear - The player will be able to manage his inventory/craft basic tools and weapons etc.

• New Crafting UI.
• New Equipment UI.
• New dynamic inventory system.
• New Blueprint system.
• Some basic blueprints are active and the player is able to craft the items, but other blueprints are deactivated till the player collect them.
• New HUD.

We've been also working on the environment, sketching and modeling a lot of awesome stuff.

A new character will be implemented soon, still need some work done. And here is a sneak peak of it

More vegetation will be implemented in the environment in the next devlog and here is a couple of these models.

Hanging leaves 

New tall bushes.

New dynamic crafting system.

There will a quick crafting table on the tab menu where the player can craft basic items such as planks and makeshift tools.

And we will be implementing some advanced crafting tables which the player can use them to create guns and other advanced tools.

Fixes: 

• Fixed the multiple selection in the crafting system
• Player can remove items from the crafting menu
• Fixed the blueprint UI and added more elements.
• Blueprint UI contains 2 different sections Makeshift items/tools and Advanced in each category, only in the building category since the player will have to upgrade the buildings with another way that i'll make another post about it whenever its ready!

Little Update of today's work:

Bug fixes

• Crafting Slots still holding the object even if the player crafted something
• Player can select same item infinite times
• The switch button in the crafting UI doesn't switch between items properly

Other:
