PlayStation 2 & Direct X Projects ’09 24th December 2009
Before the year is up I’m attempting to finish two set pieces for some of my University modules. The scene above is just a simple render, not what it will look like in the final applications. Thankfully I’ve actually already finished my PlayStation 2 coursework, to be honest it’s not really my sort of thing (neither is the Direct X) and it isn’t what I’d like to do when I leave University. Having said that I’ve given them a good shot, and with a bit more effort I’ll get the better looking DirectX implementation running.
I don’t really know what I was going for, but it looks decent enough after everything is polished. I hijacked some of my old code from last year for the PS2 project, to incorporate a nice ‘star field’ effect for the PS2 menus, as well as lock the camera in position for better viewing. From a more technical viewpoint, the majority of the work came from a major code restructuring which is what is most relevant to what I want to do after 3rd/4th year.
Hope everybody enjoys Christmas, isn’t really my sorta thing though.
