Whoopie! It is the near end of the week and time for my update. Nothing much has been done so far other than to correct a couple of issues for the Jewels of the Sea mini-game. A couple of stuff to work on since the game isn't completed yet. I have been spending a lot of time coding and debugging. No picture update though.

Justin here again.

The Jet-Ski game is more or less completed as here.

Jet-Ski

Start point/rez box of the Jet-Ski for the game. Players can choose whether they want to start the game by rezzing out the vehicle, or taking a notecard containing the instructions of the game.

The game course, which is simple for now. The final game course might change depending on the Orange Playground land.


At the last checkpoint which is also the goal-line, a fastest lap chart is available for view. This is the equivalent of a high-score chart.

What's left is probably the addition of graphics from the DMD guys. The wooden blocks will actually become invisible in the end.

As time progresses and we had to go through our second formal presentation, my effort was not considered commendable. So I had to do something to make up for it as I continue to work harder for our project. As we worked towards the new proposal and games that are being suggested, each of the programmers are assigned two games to work on.

I was assigned "Jewels of the Sea" and "Jazz on the Beach". And begin working on it. I work alongside Kenny, one of our team's designer who came up with the games that I am working on. He came up with the assets and transfered them to me. This is how the game will look like.


This is how the complete game will look like after it is done. So with my new roles, I start my work. I spent most of the day understanding what is to be done and what is necessary, such as what the designers want and how the game is to work. The rest of the day was spent on thinking of the algorithms and messing around with llMessageLinked and link_message. The whole week was pretty fun, actually. We went around Second Life and exploring the wasteland that my friend Tozh send me (You can send Landmarks to your friend so they can visit that specific place, it so happens that she gave me a landmark for a wasteland and it was exciting).

This is a picture of the wasteland, resembles a post-nuclear location. It's fun!

Hi Its Fadong here.

Since last post I've done up the concepts for the third (and final) idea. I've also started modelling my zone. However, the supervisors decided to push my zone into the 2nd phase of the project. Therefore I will start on other zones now.













And Here is the Ring Structure I've been building.






So There.
