Greetings Fans, sceptics and those that took the summer off. Which wasnt us. Well sort of. After the July Weekend we did take a small holiday, then we have resumed our development of Fantasci: Hidden War. But its september and we are back in full swing, we have several items coming up that we are working on, including the introduction of a new programmer, Chad. Hes totally been helpful bringing several piece of code to life.
So pictures everyone wants pictures first.. well, most of you have seen alot of fantasci's visuals from the minor to the major cities. This Time its the Dranix Racing Mini Game, but first the update on what we have been up to.
We have been working on the guts of the game, taking the massive amount of story and assets and with Chad's assistance fixing some of our critical items including a full rewrite of our mesh and texture swapping and combat systems. Some impressive stuff to be certain.
We have been working on getting the new dialogue system integrated with a new db system as well, which using the Yack pack takes ties in all the neat items, quest, merchants, ect. There was a few pictures of our yack pack from before, with the new improvements we plan on making them more dynamic and more useful for players to interact not just with NPCs but the entire world.
Other then that. What do we have in store for the fall and winter? Well, with RL issues, we had planned on a new addition to the website, a fansite know as Iggys corner. Iggy is a Dranix from one of the major minigames within Fantasci: Dranix Racing. Yes a full racing game inspired by the Atlantia Gladitorial Consortium, Buy a Dranix at the local race and race the clock, gather points and conquer the gauntlet. Its all in the works. But we have lots in play.
The Old Iggy
Some might remember our sculpture of Iggy
Now Iggy Brought to 3d..
