Sprint #5 Delivery

For this Delivery I was onboarded onto the Cyberstein project, learning about their project structure and goals, and we eventually figured out what I could be tasked with. I mostly worked with Heather, learning how she developed her blueprints and assisted her where needed - mainly with the spline movement of the saw. I also looked into how we could incorporate my procedural generator into the outside of the environment so that you could see the cyberpunk world from the windows of the building.

Sprint #4 Delivery, Asset/Feature Complete

This sprint I fixed the rowing so you can only move when grabbing the oars. I also set up Pascal to color change according to his mood and provided the current Animation State Machine, with Thomas's help with changing Pascal's material and West's help with the state machine's flow. https://youtu.be/-ZQjXJzkxPY

Sprint #2 Delivery, Beginning/Middle/End Part II

This week, I setup the oars with a physics component, so they stay in place in the boat rings, and can be affected by physics. They also respawn at the rings when dropped. Now the player can only move when grabbing both oars. The "rowing" isn't quite working as intended, the VR grab component overrides the physics component, so I need to find a way around that. Also object movement along the spline is working, but not for VR pawn, so that will need to be integrated as the movement is only along the Y axis currently. https://youtu.be/JkYhKfdTpyo

Sprint #1 Delivery, Beginning/Middle/End, Part I

I was onboarded onto the new project, and assigned to work on the boat spline movement. I was caught up to speed with the current spline system. I researched spline in Unreal, and got a working prototype that moves an object along a spline, but for some reason I am having trouble having the VR pawn move along the spline. I will continue to look into this issue in the upcoming sprint.
