August 2,2006 - Team

Today the team officially decided to change the MOD's direction and in total the entire story. The original City map underwent some changes as well as adding various types of game modes to the map including Arena and a Bounce to the map. So far the development continues and the map isn't quite done but the team would rather concentrate on quality rather then quantity.

The map is going quite well and theres not much too report.

So the map is near completion now just a few more to add to it theres currently a problem where the ladder doesn't work so looks like things are gonna have to be changed. Also the team has created the main characters Jack and "un-named". Were looking for a proper name to call the character that helps the player along the way.

Voiceovers start, today were using a couple of programs to alter voice and to professionally record better sound but we aren't going to record yet we are still casting the actors. However we might do the voices ourselves.

The City 17 section of the Mod is almost done. The team skipped to the Train Station while i work on the city map and the sewer area. Next week i will start the parking Garage map that lays underneath the Train Station. Its quite huge and filled with zombies but not to much thats just overkill.

Wow the Train Station is nearly done just trying to figure out how to get a train moving on a path. The path is quite long which will take the player father away from Gordon Freeman or at least a different area to be quaint. Also the sewer concept art is about done i would put a screenshot of the art but its horribly badly drawn "haha".The team "me and Neil" have moved on to the Sewer while Kristin works on some of the modeling for Jack and the other character.

Wow is modeling hard but it looks like i finished the model and now I'm going to work with some of the choreography scenes for the game also Cory and Neil are still working on the parking Garage.
