MD2Final GDD

Hey guys!
hope everyone had a good week,
this week as part of the Audio team I was tasked with creating a list of essential audio to present to Chris and James.

The list goes as follows:

General ambience
Planes
birds
gunfire
fire
wind
rain
war-cries
soldiers chanting
soldiers marching

character specific 
breathing walking
dialogue
injured noises

specific to weapons
reload
gunshots (upon research I found 3 specific weaponry that was commonly used during the 1916 rising)
bullet impact (miss)
bullet impact (success)
empty clip

interact noises
door
item collection
item delivery
ammo collection
weapon pickup

Thanks to Ian Cudmore! for suggesting the use of BBCs sound effect files which features a lot of the sounds necessary to our project although I don't want to use just assets created by other artists I look forward to creating a lot of them on my own !


Talking to Chris, James and Trevor on the aspect of music we all agreed that when it came to music played within the game (ex passing a shopfront) should be played through gramophone I did some research into the sounds produced by a gramophone and presented it to the guys, which they all liked.!

I presented the idea of dialogue and narration, although I don't feel majorly confident being the front voice for narration, knowing this I put forward the role to James and some others in the group which they wore open to trying.

I spoke with Ellen One of our teams lead writers and have organised a meeting on Monday 8th to put forward some ideas of dialogue and narration which will suit the game. with this info I will be able to move onto recording narration and I look forward to bringing this information into James On Tuesday 9th April and on this day we will be working on both sound effects and narration which I am super excited to start.

    Hey Eoin, It's obvious you've done a lot of work this week! Sound is really important to help create an atmosphere in a game and I like that your putting so much thought into it. I like the idea of the gramophone sounds because this would be true to the time that this game is set in. BBC's sound effects gallery is really good! I really like how your group is organising your project. All of you play a different role in the game development which is really productive. Looking forward to seeing the final product. Good luck!

Games Stories

Hey guys! Today I read an article on  What Every Game Developer Needs to Know about Story Overall it was an extremely good read and i would recommend, although some parts I got lost. Mainly cuz i'm extremely tired and sick :) enough of me complaining lets get into it! what was it about?  Story in games and why the hell is it so important. to show why?, the post takes a dive back in time to look at old formats of story and why they worked, in an effort to show us how to make them work for games a relatively new art form. The facts are the facts and funny enough if you look back (nice rhyming there) in time, the change from movie to games seemed really fucking strange and i am pretty sure some people laughed at the idea of movies/stories being shown through games, but you can flip that argument on its head because movies are just advancements of plays. The first attempt to make movies into stories absolutely failed. The camera was set up in the form of a viewer so f...

Unity Tutorial 05

Hey, Today I watched a reviewed unity tutorial 9 , 10 and 11 . Unity tutorial 9 was an interesting introduction to sky boxes, lighting and wind zones. sky boxes seem to be very aesthetically pleasing. Using the TGU sky box pack the person doing the tutorial brought in many templates to use for the sky which effected lighting in the world. using certain settings he was able to increase decrease lighting, shadows textures. the wind zones was an interesting look and i learned that using wind zones you can create a sense of movement in trees and grass. but you can also change it so that when you are within a certain radius the trees and grass will then react to your presence. secondly i watched unity tutorial 10. this tutorial thought us how to pick up a weapon and how to use fade screens. using the code public class we wrote for the Collection of the gem, we can copy and paste this to allow us to collect our axe. Then we learned how to do fade screens. fade screens are prett...
