3D, Cinema 4D, Dailies, Unreal, VR VR Workshop: Atari 2600 Joystick ShaneDoherty February 17, 2020 Making sure that whatever way you grab the Atari joystick it snaps to the correct handheld position. ??️Daily 20.02.27 /// 337 // VR Workshop / @UnrealEngine #madeinunreal #gamedev #VR #UX Small wins are always the best. Figuring out how to add small hand positioning so you can grip the joystick in a way to press the button with your thumb. Took me 2 days!! ? Daily 20.02.26 /// 336 // VR Workshop / @UnrealEngine #madeinunreal #gamedev #VR #UX Figured out how to drop and remove the animation Played animation worked on entry but couldn’t kill it on dropping item. Think I need to do all this in the motion controller and have a variable isJoystick. Add a grab joystick animation and press button animation into the animation sequencer. Trying to attach the joystick to the hand appropriately so I can press the button with an animation. Didn’t work. Next try changing the animation of the skeletal mesh. Daily 20.02.25 /// 335 // VR Workshop / @UnrealEngine #madeinunreal #gamedev #VR #UX Great explanation on how to align objects in your VR hands Atari 2600 VR joystick still a bit buggy but getting there. Daily 20.02.24 /// 334 // VR Workshop / @UnrealEngine #madeinunreal #gamedev #VR #UX Great tutorial on understanding joints Got my low poly Atari 2600 joystick back into Unreal. Time to get it working and hopefully interact with something. Daily 20.02.20 /// 333 // VR Workshop / @UnrealEngine #madeinunreal #gamedev #VR #UX Cleaned the Atari joystick down from 81000 polys to 2900 Daily 20.02.19 /// 332 // VR Workshop / @maxon3d #gamedev #VR #UX Working in VR fills my weird obsession of taking CAD models and rebuilding them to get the poly count down. Only adjusted the stick here and removed about 30 000 ??Daily 20.02.18 /// 331 // VR Workshop / @maxon3d #gamedev #VR #UX Next up in my wee VR workshop, I’m gonna build a table of controllers starting with my very first controller back in the 80s. The Atari 2600 joystick. Where it all began ? Daily 20.02.17 /// 330 // VR Workshop / @UnrealEngine #madeinunreal #gamedev #VR #UX
