Kyler Schwartz - week 6 report

Goals From Last Week

• Get the tube generation program working correctly so we can have a track to move the players along.
• Implement any more animations (like one for the Ecoli model).
• Get the animation loading working properly with the engine ( this might be done by tonight :D ).

Accomplished Goals

• Tube is being generated with texture mapped to it (may need to fine tune tube more).
• Animation and bump map unfortunately weren’t able to make progress on due to 127 project.

Problems with Meeting Goals

• Tube generation is working, however there are a few spots where the tube’s wall is a little corkscrewed. Need to figure out why that is occuring. Also bump mapping ran into a little bit of trouble but I have some ideas to get it to work.
• Tried different logic for generating the tube which could correct the above problem but the generated tube looked horrible so that was reverted.

Goals for Next Week

• Get bump mapping working properly on tube.
• Get animation for ecoli working.
