Week 6

Homework has been hitting hard this week, and I wasn't able to invest as much time into project work as I'd like. I don't have much to show for the time I did spend on the projects, either. This isn't to say I got nothing done; I refined the jump animation a bit, and made some progress on the garage.

I've hit some stumbling blocks, though. I've found Beam's feet to be really difficult to keep from sliding around when they shouldn't, so I've decided to add inverse kinematics. It's really confusing, though, and adding it retroactively to the model and animation gives it an extra layer of complexity. As for the garage, I want to add a neon sign, which should be simple enough, just convert the text to a curve and bevel it. however, there are some problems I'm having with that, but it's too much to get into it here.

Hopefully next week will be better.
