Xodius Studios Blog #10 Finding Final UI Art,, Finishing up the Equip menu, Finishing the Consumable Slots, and Finishing the Quest system

The Features:

The features I would like to finish implementing this month are the quest system, the equip menu, the consumable slots, and adding the Final UI Art. Bowen is helping me find some final and permanent UI art for the buttons and the menus. I am still testing the USE button with Justin, it is still finicky. I might have to cut the quest system if I do not figure it out in time. I am trying to implement everything in code rather than blueprints which takes forever to do because there are rarely any C++ tutorials for the things I would like to implement. I will be finishing the equipment menu and the consumable slots. 

Current Status of Features:

The current status of these features is halted at the moment. I have been dealing with a lot of family emergencies. I am currently monitoring my little brother's health and had to fly him to a specific hospital to get him to care. I will update this post as I have time out of the hospital.

   Xodius Studios Blog #5 Notification Pop Up, Intro-Level Design, Menu Indicator, Pause Menu UI Bug, and Interaction Bug Author: Kanitha Charoenpanich Published: 03/22/2023 23:06 The Problem:       This week I completed the notification pop up which took me the longest. I had to create the animations for the notification. I also had to create the widget for the notification pop-up. I implemented the notification pop-up in c++. For the implementation I translated blueprints into c++, there were complications in the translation which caused a bunch of issues. I had a lot of complications with the notification pop-up. There were include, widget binding, and unreal errors that made no sense. The into-level design did not have any issues, I was just adding enemies and potions to the level. The menu indicator had some problems but was not that major. The pause menu bug was a simple fix but I decided to scrap all the temporary blueprints and remake it in c++. The...

Importing assets and animations from Unreal 5.0 to Unreal 4.27.2

    Xodius Studios Blog #5 Importing Assets and Animations from Unreal 5.0 to Unreal 4.27.2 Author:Justin Palmer Published: 03/16/2023 21:30 The Problem:     The main problem this week was being able to use the assets we purchased for the Snake Temple Asset Pack.  We weren't aware when we purchased it, but the asset pack was made for Unreal 5.0 and not 4.27.  There are numerous videos on how to upgrade the asset pack from 4.27 to 5.0, but very few on how to downgrade.     Due to the lack of videos and tutorials converting the files were not going to be easy, and without the nice looking assets the player was going to be playing a dull level.  Being able to use assets on any version of Unreal is very important, and I would recommend any artist to try and make them compatible with as many versions as they can when producing their artwork.     Problem Solution:     After researching how to upgrade from Unreal 4...

AI Adventures #14 Polishing the game for demo release - "Forgotten Memories" - By Michael Marquez

Welcome to the final blog before graduation on June 2nd, marking the end of a long journey. As one chapter closes, another begins, doesn't it? Preparing the game for production has been quite a challenge, to say the least. The team and I have thoroughly enjoyed working on the game and have great hopes for its success. With additional time and dedication, we aim to address many, if not all, of the current issues before introducing more content. We have engaged in discussions about further enhancing the demo and taking it to the next level. We have set the game's early access launch for the 31st of this month, just a few days away. This allows us a brief window to address minor issues identified by our testers, director, and instructors. We sincerely appreciate all the assistance we have received in reaching this milestone. Thank you all for following our blogs, and please remember that May 31, 2023, is the release day. We eagerly anticipate your presence on that day! We will be ...
