Sorry bout the lack of updates. Lot was going on past month and a half. My Killing Floor clan decided to get back together and they needed my help (I'm their main server admin) and I've had some crap going on in my real life. I still am aiming to get this game done before I graduate. If I have to work on it a bit over the summer, so be it. I want this f***ing thing done. I'll be reaching out to team members individually to discuss the sh*t we gotta do. We still need someone to do the cutscenes though. Can anyone step up to the plate for this?

[VAIMAHDO]

Cutscenes? I can do that! I have finished the gift I have made. Just tell me when I need to have the cutscenes done and I will give you the result of how it will look. I'm willing to help with anything else as well, due to the fact that I am now free.

It needs to be max payne styled with the cutscenes, otherwise it just wont fit in with the atmosphere of the game. I don't think Unity/3d would be good for the videos

[VAIMAHDO]

I've never seen Max Payne before, I'll look at the cut scenes and I will try to mimic the style.

I don't quite remember Max Payne. Was it drawn or just actors with some filter effects?
Anyway, here is my attempt at a cartoony scene:

[VAIMAHDO]

I just looked. max payne is like that picture.

Well if you can make the cutscene pictures in Unity I can edit them. What do you think, cleone?

[cleone]

As long as you can get the ccharacters in each pose. What will you guys do about Ally? There's no 3d model available of her

[VAIMAHDO]

I thought we were doing max payne style. Max payne is just 2d photos

Although I would definitely prefer the images to be hand drawn to get the various new characters, positions, and appearances (naked Ally).

[VAIMAHDO]

Ahahhaah naked Ally? Well, depending on when you would like us to be done with it, we could choose which option is better. I could do a max payne style pretty easily.

[helkensinken]

naked ally . btw go to work man

Thanks. And yes I already offered the job, and I have said that after may 11th I would be free.

May 11th is way too late to be working on the cutscenes

Ah, I meant March. Just a typing error.

I don't think Unity is going to cut it though. It would recycle models from Driv3r, making me have to remove new characters and remove some scenes due to changes in appearances. I honestly think it needs to be drawn from scratch if its going to look good.

[VAIMAHDO]

Yeah, drawn from scratch would definitely do, it would also better match the 2D style of the game. If we ripped the models from D3 it would be a long process of adding virtual bones and telling these bones what they do and what they move. (It's a very long process) For me to go from tanner's head to one arm and his stomach, it took me all day. (Not to mention, I do make each individual finger have the ability to move).

Rigging and skinning, in other words. Time consuming indeed.

[VAIMAHDO]

Not to mention adding teeth and facial expressions, then later making mouth positions for speech. (What I have to do for D3 animations)

So is there anyone with art skills or Photoshop skills?
