Ingame Shots

Currently what ingame looks like

Trying out some particle effects to make it look like the mushrooms are giving off spores

Replacing brushes and placeholders with static meshes

Terrain Remodel

Now we know how the level works ive tweaked the terrain so we can get rid of some brushes and generally tidy it up and make it look more natural. Ive also started some textures for it.

Sizing

Model has been built now we just need to texture it. Weve brought it into udk to see how it looks as far as size and shape goes and we are going to have to increase its size but at least another half

Kismet

 

Spent a few days getting all the kismet working for the platforms, doors swapping etc.

I just have to replace the models now

Final character model - 2700 polys.  previously was 2200 for one half ! so almost cut 40% of polys out.
now on to the UV unwrap.

completely remodeled the body a few times to get the technique that suited me. This one is the best so far, but I'm still a bit rusty on character modelling.

Only the  face to finish modelling which will be done in z-brush, then texturing which shouldn't be so bad.

Forest Walkthrough

All props and textures are placeholders. This walkthrough was originally longer but i suck badly at platforming and kept dying, so i cut up the best bits and edited it.
