Metroid VR - Sprint 3

 

 

As for in-engine changes this sprint, I was able to address the feedback we received regarding roughness in materials. In addition to a more detailed roughness map, there is now a roughness parameter tied to the ID masking.

I am also updating the large, central background asset and the EMMI, which will be finalized next sprint.

Main Pieces

Sprint #2 Delivery

 

This sprint was focused on tweaking and updating existing models to work with our more universal materials.
As a result most environmental objects now only use 2 unique textures:

One contains the edge wear mask (Red) and AO (Green)

The other contains RBG ID masking for 3 in-engine color tint channels

(Default is: Red = Middle tone, Green = Light tone, Blue = Dark tone)

The master material was also expanded a little to support this new color 3-channel color tinting:
