Summary

• No real news:
  • ElvenProgrammer had to leave so Rotonen was the moderator this time.
  • Crush is still working in new trees and has almost completed the woodland tileset. He thinks it will be ready for mapping in the next week.
  • Modanung did some artwork. He still is pro-hugging.
  • Irukard has been busy with studies, so no new material till next week.
  • Pajarico couldn't show anything since his scanner broke. He suggested a new approach for the palace and people agreed.
  • Rotonen asked for a more detailed map of the city, to get a precise view of what tiles do we need. Also, he wants to do a world that "lives" even when the players are not there (in other words, npcs leads their own lifes).

• A new page has been added: Assignments, so the artists can schedule their tasks.
• As they weren't really any important news, we started to talk about stuff that's halfway between development (coding) and artist tasks:
  • Implement engine for particle effects.
  • Implement water reflection and sparklings (anime-like).
  • 3d pre-rendering of magic effects and fluids, althought this was vaguely discussed. Modanung suggested to use this technique only as a base.

• That's all, folks. If you feel like I missed something, edit this page. -- Pajarico 19:03, 30 Sep 2005 (CEST)

• You forgot to mention that Modanung wants to marry me in game, so we have to add weddings as soon as possible --ElvenProgrammer 20:24, 30 Sep 2005 (CEST)
