Congratulations on the WiiU - project looking good so far! There're already multiple WiiU projects in development using ORK Framework :)

wtyson

@Alex1234 Sucks that your so limited on what you can do were you live .

@GIL Thanks and thats good news that ork works with the Wii U, was kinda nervous there. My contact at Nintendo said it should work fine but he wasn't sure. His words were "Try it and see!" lol. But thanks to your post i can have a little peace of mind now!

The only problem that I'm aware of was that Unity had only 4.2 for WiiU until a few month ago. Since Unity 4.2 lacked some of the supported features of ORK (e.g. some mecanim stuff) it required an extra ORK version for 4.2 - since they've updated their WiiU support to 4.3, everything seems to be working with the usual ORK version (but I think the Asset Store wont let you import it due to version differences ... just dropping the unitypackage in there should work, though).

@GIL They told me to just make a copy of the Project folder to be used in the Wii U version of Unity. Which is what i was planing to do anyways but ill finish developing first before i do that. Since im releasing on pc as well. And then move the folder over an do the Wii U touch ups after.

edit : downloading there version now and ill test to see if just moving the project folder over works. or if you have to actually make it a package to get it to install correctly. (interested in how this will pan out now ^^)

Somehow I have total confidence you will get this to work. : )

wtyson

Just updated the site with 2 new pics. You can view them here.

keyboardcowboy

Hmm...maybe Santa will bring the kids a WiiU this Christmas :)

wtyson

@keyboardcowboy wait till i get the demo up you might not like the game :P But i hope every does though. Shooting for next month to have a playable demo.

Catacomber

I love the new pics. : )

wtyson

yeah im working on setting up the camera a little more to show different angles while inside certain areas this way u can get some close ups instead of a consistent topdown view

Catacomber

That should make it more immersive.

wtyson

yeah thats what im hopping for. the camera it self will be in a fixed location but some areas there will be 3 or 4 views of the area. this also allows me to have floors on top of floors in the interiors with out the cam floating over everything.

wtyson

I put up some new screens on the site!

Just a update on the progress im making. With all interior sections done for the first area i have started work on the battle system. As of now i got a prototype but its bug ridden so it will be a bit before its complete. once its done i will post some pics or you can just check up on my site. The link is in my sig :P

Hey wtyson, just got a chance to checkout your uploads for Sora. I have got to say I really like the intro company logo. Not sure if you changed the Title Menu from the first page, but I really liked what you did there also. I was a big fan of FF7 and look forward to seeing where this one goes. Hopefully some epic boss fights incoming!

wtyson

So after a long hard decision I have decided to move my project over to UE4 And with the move means a whole different direction of how the game looks and i mean a really big direction. And with @GIL 's permission I will continue to post my progress as i go :) ( Thanks GIL) So with out further ado Heres the new face of Sora. the clothing she has on is a temp thing to test how armor will work with in UE4

Ill post my updated screens later of the new Dynamic main menu and the wip in game hud systems when i get a bit more time later after work .

Shadow_Fire

What was the deciding factor that make you move, may I ask? Since Ork don't support UE4, does this mean you have to code/blueprint everything from the ground up?

wtyson

Mainly my lighting issues with modular design issues with point lights shining through walls and making weird marks. Stuff that cant always be covered up when dealing with interiors specially when your trying to light a room correctly. All my systems are all being done in blueprint and yes everything is getting coded from the ground up. atm im about 90% done with a basic rpg system that will use real time battles. once thats done its a matter of just getting the world fully built. which is coming along nicely with things like speedtree for ue 4 daz studio for npcs and the new sora models and of course the asset store unity/UE4 marketplace. along with that im using world machine to do my landscapes to make them as realistic as possible. i plan to make my own effects and ofc course my own music score thanks to a friend of mine whos doing the composition. guys got alot of talent. voice acting will be done by a few pros who i have already talked to and got some deals worked out with them. luckily its not expensive as i thought it would be. I plan to use faceplus from mixamo at some point to do the dialog but since its so expensive ill only be using the trial version which means doing alot of work with in the trial time frame in motion builder. which means alot of long days just to get the mouths moving lol. but this is all going to take time seeing how i am still in rebuild stage. main plot and story will stay the same but instead of being just fantasy im switching to a scifi/ fantasy mix to give the world more variety. so all and all its a huge over haul of the game with different graphics and look with i hope will be a dynamic story for the players :)
