Another week down, and another video… This time it’s all about the work done on the character and AI systems, here is 10 minutes of setting up some basic AI for a level.

And a few select screen grabs from the video…

[quick update]

First 1080p video: Water Test.. achieved by making minimal modifcations to Lighting.vert (this is a perfect SI candidate, shhh) …

Nothing at all revolutionary here, only took couple of hours, would make a good Introduction to Vertex Shaders type project:
1) Take a super simple Sine over time displacement equation;
2) Apply displacement to the y position of each vertex
3) In this case, since the water is not a separate mesh (optimizations), use the Size buffer as a flag to mask the effect onto only the water tile vertices;
4) Optional extra: give PreShadow.vert the same treatment so shadows are correctly calculated;
5) Sit back and enjoy a very basic vertex shader tweak.
