...but the mod is still on hold. The release of Street Fighter by Aztec is getting closer and closer every day, when it happens HoBL will be continued again and next update you'll see is (teaser) trailer.
Progress is currently going slowly, but still steady and in one way much better than previously.
Because of one breakthrough by Aztec, we are now able to have fully working Gogo whit her weapon ingame.
The level is going nicely, biggest thing missing anymore are the tables and chairs. Ofcorse it still needs smaller things and details added there.
Hopefully whit next update we post some new screens, propably showing the 2 characters, Oren and Bride which needs some tweaking before they are fully completed.
Work with the insides have been started and upstairs is pretty much finished now. Centre are of the downstairs is also near comlition, only the eating areas around there needs to be done.
I've added 8 new screens showing better rendering result of the garden area. Some lighting problems are still there (on walls and bigger hill), but I wont fix them before I've done final rendering with finished level.
Have had some problems with rendering, because rendering client has crashed twice now when trying to render this level again, so excuse me for posting these 5 screens which don't represent the quality of final level and have some noticable lightning problems.
Here's little example of the screens, rest 4 are in the screenshots page, also added new poll.
Garden is finished and rendering is currently running (should take few hours). Some trees are still missing from the scene, but they will be added later.
I'll be posting screens after rendering is finished.
I finally am nearly finished with the garden area. It needs few little tweaks and trimesh trees, which I add later. But next thing is to find correct rendering options (color, intensity etc.) and render it. After that I'll release some screens.
After obtaining better quality version of the movie (DVD), I noticed that level I previously did wasn't like in the movie at all. So I ditched it and made new version more true to the movie. Screens will be posted after I'll finish geometry and only trees and bushes needs to be added since they will mostly be trimeshes.
Screenshot of Hattori Hanzo's steel aka katana used by The Bride in Kill Bill vol.1 and vol.2 is added in screenshots section. 3 other swords are there too, the one used by O-Ren Ishii, 2 used by Johnny Mo and the one used by Crazy 88.
Here's little teaser shot of the "House of Blue Leaves"
Work with inside area have been started, but is on so early stages that I wont release any screens of it any time soon. I've also started to work with 3 weapon models:
- Katana
- Hattori Hanzo's Katana
- Short Katana
I'm also planning to make the weapon which is used by Gogo, but if it works like I want it's going to stay in, if it doesn't work in the way I'm pleased, it wont be in.
