It's Friday! Time for another Not A Blog.
I don't have earth-shaking new news this week or a specific 'featurette' in mind, so I'm just going to give you a dev update.
I'm now done with everything in Act 2 except the last boss - which I hope to mostly complete over the weekend. There will probably be a few trailing animations and FX that get picked up on Monday, but my aim is to be wrapped on Act 2 at that point. This makes me very happy. I think Act 2 has turned out really well, and am pretty jazzed about how very different it feels from the other acts. I was hoping to be done with the whole Act by the end of the week, but didn't quite make it, largely due to some unexpected bugs cropping up that chewed up a good day and a half of time.
We ended up putting together some new art this week for the three superchampions in Act 2 part 2 ( which are part of a boss chain ), and they came out pretty cool. Their previous incarnation was 'meh', and this is a big improvement.
This isn't a comprehensive list of other tasks - but here goes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This week Marsh and I ended up spending a good bit of time doing some bugfixing.
*There was an erratic issue with UI sorting which we found, due to an uninitialized variable somewhere.
*There were some 'dirty pathnode' occupation issues in warping situations that I fixed.
*We fixed an issue with dead boss units on level loads triggering certain events they shouldn't.
*We found a problem with ai-animations not properly updating when offscreen for level owners in certain situations.
*I fixed improper culling of scaled animated background room pieces. I fixed several problems with quest flags not restoring properly.
*We had a problem with magicfind where unnaturally high boosts (which we sometimes use in spawnclasses to guarantee nice items) could pass the max limit and cause unexpected results. I added in protective code which prevents that but maintains the ratio between itemtypes.
*I made it possible for any unit to consistently ignore your pet as a targetable.
*Marsh added the ability to have footstep particles ( he really needed it for one of his boss battles, because it felt lame not to have splashes ). I added some to desert and snowy regions after that went in.
*Some music fading issues with boss battles were resolved.
*I fixed some problems with certain kind of localonly triggerable units pingponging messages in multiplayer
*Matt Uelmen put together a even more cool ambient sounds which Patrick integrated
*Some special modifications were made to the level running up to the last Act 2 boss to make it cooler.
*Erich did some more fishing hole work and some unique work
*Erich did some magicfind balance and made merchants cooler
*Matt worked on NG+ UI stuff and some trailing portal/waypoint UI fixes.
*Achievements are now being hooked up.
*A new unit was made for the last Act 2 boss battle I'm working on right now which should make it much, much cooler.
*Marsh continued to make good progress on his act and fixed bugs
*Everyone everywhere continued with polish.
*Jeff added some more face and hair options, among other things
My plan for next week is to focus almost entirely on skill tree polish for the classes (although I may switch gears throughout the week to help Marsh out on Act 3 )
Thanks all!
Travis

反正就是 还在修改 请继续期待

没有跳到年底不性福

第二幕第二幕第二幕，它丫第二幕搞了多长时间了？有完没完呀魂淡

我的上帝。还在第二幕，今年怕是不行了

- -这已经是第n遍过第二幕了，而且Marsh在Travis开始折腾第二幕的时候同步开始折腾第三幕。等Travis把技能弄完了，就和Marsh一起弄3，4幕，然后再过一下game+，就结束了。夏天还是应该能赶上的

他们去年在干什么？

是不是剧本都还没写好啊？

五十六朵菊花，送给他们。
