00:34:23
you wow wow wow we've had a lot of fun being doing some zany stuff all wrapped around in this really cool Star Citizen project and we've allowed we've had the creative freedom to kind of roll with it and just kind of throw some humor here and there and we've really enjoyed it and it seems to have resonated and we thank you for that and it's just it's just an incredible ride and hopefully we'll get more of that in the new year we'll be able to keep on trucking so to speak um well we got a big kind of mini miniature weekend review but it's a lot of things happening we have it's moving day what does that mean well today we are actually physically packing our stuff to get the heck out of Dodge we have been packed tight tight tight in this little bitty basement for over a year and we've got a really really nice place we're moving into where people are
00:35:09
going to be able to spread out we're going to be able to hire more people which we need to do and it's just going to be an amazing experience so we sat down we had a look at the layout of the new office and we all worked it out together and I think everybody's going to be happy where they're going to be and so now it's time to talk to Mr Ron lejoy how you doing man good tired yeah well we've been working a little bit of hours here on here lately um Ron's the guy who's in charge of uh wrestling the troops and making sure that we get all the things in the hanger patch done and that it's stable and that it works for the people out there now we've got last week we kind of did a maintenance patch you want to tell people what that means what that yeah so we hadn't you know we pushed uh hanger patches out a couple months ago right and everybody's kind of been Full Steam on dog fighting so it's just kind of been sitting by the wayside um little
00:35:56
bit of cod rot so we had to bring it back up to speed and fix a bunch of bugs and make sure it was stable right kind of a just a maintenance patch to make sure everything was working as it should right and to get to get ready for this week's patch the big thing last week was client side persistence obviously so fans can can update change their ship around and see the changes on their ship and eventually that'll lead to being able to place things in the hanger the way they want to but not yet quite so this week we've got a rather large patch coming up yes we do um which is in test and right at we're taping this right now not stable no it's not but it will be by the time they're watching this never ceases to happen every time we do a patch something blows up it's crazy the build server was down earlier today I know the build server went poof but we I know it's crazy
00:36:45
that's development right so what what are they going to be able to see what are we doing this time so we're going to add a couple ships a couple ships are we saying what ships we're we're going to add the uh the new Avenger and the cutless and the cutless they're going to be in the hang they're going to be able to get inside them walk around check it out do all that kind of stuff PR they look really good now they're not necessarily PBR yet because we still don't have that code drop from from krych to to make that all happen um what else what else is going on in the hanger um so we're gonna add a cute little space crab the he's awesome by the way man yeah it's pretty cool did a really good job space crab for and now one of the things we're doing we're adding some some different fish types that you can have and put in your your fish tank we'll give you some U to buy some stuff and the reason we're doing that is that we you want we want you to kind of start changing things around in
00:37:34
your hanger and then check out the client side persistance for us so there'll be a space crab um some jellyfish some jellyfish jelly and then I know it reminds me of like uh Nemo swimming with the jellies and there'll be uh a sucker fish like a cleaner fish yep there'll be um what else is going in that thing I think crabs got a little house cra that's in there yeah yeah runs in there and hides so there's a few things in there for them to see they'll be the Avenger the cutless and then uh anything you know that you might be able to interact just a little thing um we're calling it The Firing Range the firing range so basically you'll be able to plop a weapon down on it and uh test it out people shoot stuff y few few targets there in the hanger that you can Blast away at um it will be limited for this
00:38:22
initial release there's only going to be a few weapons um but as we get effects and animation and sound online we'll patch those in as we go yeah and we and you know we might even move that to its own room at some point we don't we don't have the room system in there yet that's going to allow us to expand the hanger out right now it basically expands in One Direction Right cramming everything in there right now right exactly eventually The Hanger will be just a hanger yeah and we can move everything out yeah right we'll put room systems attached to it and stuff like that so that is coming and especi and that first I believe the first iteration of that is going to be the asteroid hanger which will kind of ship in the new year sometime yes uh but we are going to be putting that in the room system which will then allow PBR and other things that'll go in there so the asteroid hanger will be the first iteration of that so well that's cool man thanks for that Absolut the fans get go get your hanger patch it's out there it's
00:39:11
probably fairly large so get started on downloading it absolutely and uh oh yeah you know what time it is what time is it well it looks like from Mike's little thing there that it's time for Forum feedback so there you go Forum feedback guys and it's episode 50 50 oneye Anniversary can we the question is are we going to make it to two I I lay odds against that ever happen 52 I don't know yeah 50 plus two I don't know um we got some questions though you guys ready to answer you ready to step up there and get them going sure from Mall 218 will we see the cutless in a game single ship package before all the alpha slots run out oo C everyone turns to look at B I guess it
00:40:00
depends if the office Lots run out before later today yeah yes yes there should be a cutless package in the store now uh check it out there you go that's that's cool oh our first video from jetroid I was wondering if we'd be able to set presets for example the energy load out on our ships or the equipment in our hanger because it would be pretty tiresome to keep having to change every single thing at once and would be very easy to just set it up and then change between different settings so what do you guys think will we have Shi presets we can uh easily recall we we've talked about a lot of different types of presets in fact it's like presets for different loadouts for your ships that you can store in your
00:40:47
hanger or presets for which weapons bu power yeah I mean you're being chased by if you're being chased by a bandit or something you may want to you know hit a hot key and boost up shields in the booty the The Runaway preset my booty is well shielded you got a shielded booty okay great we got a shielded booty all right from Mark he says how are we expected to survive in first-person combat without a proper shooting range to practice our defense with handheld weapons a proper shooting range proper shooting range is he is he implying that the shooting range that's coming out in the hanger is improper well maybe he's implying that firing range and shooting range are different because well they are they are I agree with that I agree with that um and so what'll happen there
00:41:37
is you guys if you want to see a handheld weapon firing range or something of that nature Shooting Gallery sort of deal um put it up in the Forum topics we're looking for uh we've got a post up there about you know what you want to see in the hangar and um who knows we might we might just uh listen to that I think but we'll have to wait till all the first person shooter stuff in before we you know before we get that I I say the Galaxy is my shooting range so you all better watch out are you going to be in a giant space suit with your shielded booty running around shooting stuff how do you shoot with a hammer oh that's right from Marcus impalement polus he says last time the package must be on time this power search detected one cut your engines lower your Shields and
00:42:26
prepare to be bought it and now a simple task with simple instructions these socalled movers have failed me again they even failed at buying Insurance it paid out in coupons those Sons the nerve of some people theyve been under the radar for weeks I need you to track them down and make them pay I don't know get creative how about um you capture them make them watch uh Pony cartoons or listen to some of legante singing all right so to sum it up breach of contract loss of property and insolence anything else I should know you need to act fast and be very good to find them they've got a two-day Head
00:43:14
Start which is more than they need they've got friends on every planet from her to Tera know a dozen languages know every local custom they'll blend in disappear and we'll never find them again Noby Nobody Knows the TR I've seen nobody knows my they could be in Shion space for all we know right now good hunting all right Kim Shadow out Dear wingman can I pursue targets into alien space I'm going to need a gun of some sort first of all a lot of lot of cool uh folks in that video that we've seen
00:44:02
before familiar faces that's good always good to have your videos and and it's also a good question can they can they pursue targets into alien space well there's always a question of can versus should so can sure should sometimes they might react differently it depends but uh that's a lot of that kind of draws from the fiction so if you've been keeping up on our fiction on the website there's a lot of discussion about the tensions between the UE and Jean for instance so you know you might have to be a little more careful but there will probably be ways to make arrangements so you can't be Dogg maybe like doggedly not worrying about where you are in space it's going to matter yeah it's going to matter your reputation what's going on the the the actual area you're in space is going to matter and the aliens May enforce different laws than humans that's true Could Happen aliens are you know well
00:44:52
alien from son Apollo what's the goal on the the weapons range will it be guns we own or do we get access to all of them that is a good question and something we've been wrestling with internally as well we have been so after the wrestle what did we decide for now the goal is to have a limited set of weapons available the ones that are most ready of course um and that limited set of weapons will be limited even further by weapons you have on ships you own or that you have purchased in the Voyager direct store yeah and that's a good good point too is that you know while we're making these weapons it's not just a matter of taking the weapon and you know maybe we recreated the the actual gun or laer itself we can then go okay it's on the it's mounted to the Mount but we need
00:45:40
effects particle effects for it we need V effects we need sounds um so it's it's a little more than just stuff of that nature what you gonna say do you have something no we just was your booty Shield bothering you there he was adjusting his booty Shield we can't have enough of that B from parias he says what are you waiting for raise the lift already okay can you at least get the turret working hello wingman some members of the
00:46:35
community have imported The Hanger module files into the free cry engine editor for the purpose of making videos and exploring game assets however many of us are having trouble getting the ships imported with working animations using the CGA files as attempting to do so will either freeze the editor or crash it with duplicate animation errors as you can see this is causing a few problems my question is could you provide some guidance on how we can work around these issues with a free Editor to get the animations working if it's even possible it would be a tremendous benefit to the community as this would improve the potential quality of fan videos dramatically and really help us promote the game during this early phase
00:47:22
of development thank you for your time and consideration I'm Scott finally fly ooh I hope he's all right there ouch I think we probably don't have to answer that question yeah I mean he's dead now we have no more videos to you know that's a that is a good question and we we loved it last week as well but we weren't quite sure we had a good enough answer for that so we we pushed it to this week but this week what do you guys think can we provide some guidance on how to hook up the animations in the free editor Well he kind of answered it himself I mean that's part of it it's like we're we're working on on several different facets of the game at once and a move and Staffing right now so you know we we haven't been able to push that forward right now but you know at some point that is going to become first on our priorities and at some point we'll start working on that and try to
00:48:09
release more information I'm sure but it's just today is not the day for that you know right but it is really cool great video Yeah we'd love to see our fans do as much of that sort of thing as possible and as it becomes possible for us to help out we absolutely will yeah I mean and you know making the tools that will allow you to do that or releasing our editor you know that's a ways out and and we've got a lot of stuff to do still but we would love to we if we was was ready we' do it today but you know we only have one Brian Brewer right now but down the road when we have like six or seven and we're GNA clone Brian Brewer cloning you heard it here first it's the $40 million stretch yeah the Brian Brewer clone I don't know if that's possible you say we'd be Brewing them we there wouldn't be a hanger show
00:48:57
without a grown worthy comment and this time it's not from me oh here's one of our favorite contributors disco Lando good morning wingman this is Lando disco Lando and I have a question about the elusive executive hanger now from time to time I'll hear one rumor or another about this mysterious fifth Hangar there's no such thing as a rumor about disco land if it isn't true now it will be now is the executive hanger still in the works was it just another name for the business hanger or should we just not believe everything we hear on the internet top men told me that the executive hanger turns all your ships

01:11:54
yeah my name is Paul and I'm working here at
01:16:43
Star Citizen as a elite engine or Elite game programmer especially working on dog fight at the moment and the last couple of months we pretty much crunched to get DG fight in a good state to show it to you guys one thing we worked um the last week or the last weeks um getting all the items and all the subsystems together they are all connected like in real world so you have an radar item which sends radar information which is then processed by an identification device and this is sent to the actual display in your Hut so player in the end will be able to to customize their ships if they want and this is what I'm working at the moment to bring all those systems
01:17:30
together we have like an an energy flow system where we can detach and attach items like like you would put a plug into your into your jack in the in the in the wall so I'm uh Dan Tracy I'm the senior technical designer here at Cloud Imperium games working here in La so I'm uh right now for dog fighting I'm actually working on uh quite a bit of stuff with uh the Horn of Destruction as well as a lot of the destruc abilities for like the asteroids setting up the levels been working with a bunch of other people on like the particle effects setting up the vehicle setup basically I've I've touched um a lot of the parts in the animation you name it I've I've done it so uh I'm just going to be showing off um a little bit here of like the Hornet destruction what we currently have set up so on my weapon
01:18:18
Mount here that I got I'm actually going to be uh shooting at the wing we got uh some Sparks from um The Hidden impacts and you can see here where I'm actually blowing up parts of the wing we got little jibs uh flying off from the stresses that are going to be hitting the ship we're going to be changing this around a little bit so it's actually going to be localized to where you're actually hitting on the ship so these different panels are actually going to be blowing off uh when you're actually shooting at the uh at the wings here you'll blow off like parts of the ship you'll lose your weapons here you can see that one flying away here and then you can actually uh completely like disassemble the actual vehicle entirely and we're going to be doing this for all these different parts actually Chris Smith I'm the lead ship modeler here at Cloud Imperium games and I'm going to talk a little bit about the destruction pieces and how we made them uh what I came up with was a uh a sort
01:19:09
of um kit bash design that um that I used all over the place in the ship to make it quick and and and efficient and easy to make so kit bashing is like when you uh from real life uh modeling you take existing pieces from other models and put them together to make a new piece to make a new model this is the tail Wing here specifically um you know we're kind of making them breaking them up by sections these are all the different damage States what we're doing is uh the first damage state will be like real low you know just panels flying off and then the next stage you know a little bit P bigger piece will fall off and so on you know until basically the whole thing just comes off and just a burning wreck so what we had before was more of a
01:19:57
style guide for how we were going to have the HUD look but we didn't really have a functional design of what was going to be on there and where uh so what we did in this meeting was mostly hammer out what we're actually going to show and when and on which display and so that informs what I'm doing and uh what sort of uh inputs I need to program for the HUD so now that we actually have a early version of the dog fighting module working and everyone can actually fly the ships I'm starting to get actual feedback on what's useful and what's not what's in the wrong place what's unintuitive what's intuitive hi I'm Alan precour I'm the senior lighting and cinematic artist here at Cloud Imperium games I've been working for the past couple weeks on the dog fighting module specifically lighting the Hornet what I do is I often will sit right where the
01:20:45
pilot sits where the player is going to sit and I'll keep looking around going okay I like that I don't like that and I keep moving the camera back and forth to try to see where the light is falling what sort of bad uh effects I'm getting that there's really desirable and then I'll just keep changing it back and forth so what it is is a lot of placing a light taking a look at the environment going back thinking about it some more going back to the light moving it a little bit more so that's a really really rough idea of how that looks for the cockpit and after about 3 4 days of work it looks like this uh hi my name is Forest technical artist at clown Imperium games uh mostly been concentrating on special
01:21:33
effects so uh explosions muzzle flashes uh when all the damage States switch having uh Sparks and fire and stuff happening when things are spinning around flying around um Trails currently um we just had a new tool made that allows us to do volume particles and that means instead of our explosions just being kind of flat images we now have uh volumes that can be rendered and uh created so it has much more of kind of this Fireball type um effect when uh the explosion happens as long as all the along with the debris that kind of shoots out and also the smoke and then also in the dog fighting level we have like an asteroid field and a lot of space dust that surrounds and is inside the asteroid field and for that we
01:22:21
actually use a volume particles which is also a 3D part particle that's uh very different and new and uh that allows us to get these nice dense uh looking areas actually through particles so probably uh my favorite thing that uh is being worked on right now uh is the shields so we now have uh the ability to have a very flexible tool to create a lot of different looking Shields and have a lot of control on how the Shield's like so he's been spending a lot of a lot of time uh adjusting perimeters you know maybe there's a hot spot then it kind of starts breaking up then it maybe comes like this kind of energy then it does some noise and just dialing down all the settings depending on your uh Shield uh damage from like Z to 100 like how uh how charged it is how
01:23:10
not charged it is and just kind of creating this kind of very procedural looking effect based on what's happening around you and how you're getting hit everything cool so the most challenging thing uh in regards to the uh fighting level is to um really balance performance uh with gameplay because we want lots of asteroids in there we want lots of exploding asteroids but it also has to run on the network and uh it has to be fun and so we're really trying to balance uh get the highest Fidelity Graphics we can get with the highest Fidelity um gameplay that we can get and that's kind of The Balancing Act that seems to be uh the most challenged but the most fun as well so everyone okay so we're here Al
01:24:59
l know
01:26:18
and it looks great so I think let's try it I all the coming
01:28:41
all la for oh
01:32:42
this last for that's for
01:34:54
St be

re very you go
01:52:41
yes so we're to that PR
01:54:26
well we have we have really
01:55:36
Rad Radar idea window
01:57:01
so that's idea I got I got no we left
01:59:20
got got I don't made out
02:00:17
here's that what did they say
