25.05.2025 14:52 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0It got worse before it got better. I was told we had to keep our original trees, but I added more that absolutely did not match. AT this point we were almost ready to give up.
25.05.2025 14:51 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0At this point, I was upset with how the project looked we had no real art direction, our foliage was one style everything was mismatched I wanted to re-do all of our art direction

25.05.2025 14:47 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Trying to save what I could, I decided to add a water shader that I had found documentation for on 80LVL, the water shader was great but ran horribly in VR. It took a couple renditions to get it fully optimized.

16.04.2025 13:55 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Week 9 I switched teams and got introduced in perforce. Awful. Unity dev ops (Plastic) is so much more user friendly and is industry standard.
13.03.2025 03:02 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0were allowed to touch the game in engine.
13.03.2025 03:00 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0At this point I was loosing hope because I wasn't being asked to do anything for the project because I am a technical artist and not a 3D modeler. My models were shit and my tech skills in unity are nonexistent so working on this project was pointless. Additonally only 2 out of the 30 people
13.03.2025 02:59 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Some hardships I faced during this time were fixing the stupid lighting nothing was working the foliage textures were all messed up and the textures were shading on the corners of the mesh
13.03.2025 02:58 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Week 5: UI prototyping
13.03.2025 02:48 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Created rejected textures because I was not following directiona
13.03.2025 02:47 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Week 10: final touches and set dressing for Golum. Lighting broke a couple of times before hand so I spent the majority of weeks 9 and 10 fixing the Lightmap UVs, deleting the original foliage and re-doing it, fixing the water texter, and re-making the lighting.
13.03.2025 02:44 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Week 7-8:
Created UI for echoes of a silent garden. I also re-evaluated my life because almost all of my work for ESG was not used for the game and I realized I don't know how to make things for Unity Because I have never used unity before. So I decided to switch teams.
Week 6 : Created a deadtree, planter, and rusty shears. I also created an overall map svg for the game.
13.03.2025 02:40 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0After creating this UI I had pretty much no other purpose on the team so I decided to start helping for Golum
13.03.2025 02:24 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Creating water mist for the waterfall, water shaders and optimizing the game for VR in Golum. This was my first week working in Golum as I decided to switch teams
