Binary Bonsai

Phew, long time no see. I’m finally done with my presentation/exam. Overall I’d say that it went fairly well (though this jury’s gonna be out on that one for a few weeks). For anyone interested in Abertay and Computer Arts, I can tell you as much as I made my entire presentation as a 14 minute long video. Which I must say is something of a gamble, and mostly something we’ve all be joking about doing. But it seems that the tutors found it interesting. (and if nothing else, it’ll save them the relentless onslaught of computer crashes and CPU speed problems at the presentations.)

Anyway, in other news I just played my first level released in a major commercial title (Medal of Honor: Spearhead, the mission pack for MOH: Allied Assault). Skip down and read my January 5th entry if you have no idea what I’m talking about.

I’ve taken loads of screenshots that I’m gonna put up here to show. There are definetly a few changes in it, some of which are bad and some of which are good. I think my final verdict is that they’ve improved (almost over-improved) the flow of the level by adding a LOT of openings in walls and houses, and in return they botched some of the texturing. (Don’t get me started on lighting!).

For now, here’re two of the shots.

Now somebody buy that damn book so I can gets me some moneeee-ey!
