This was last night’s cap that never got posted – I couldn’t figure how how to use FireFox, so I went to bed.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Anyway,\u00a0 StickyBall\/KatamariBall\/Going Down the Road… mashup\u00a0 is working out.\u00a0 Rather than post this at 1AM, I tried puttting a sky dome in.\u00a0 It just didn’t work, so I wasted a good hour there – especially in the creative zen hour of 2AM.\u00a0 Somewhere at midnight the psychedelic-ness came to life.<\/p>\n

Now that it’s the next morning and I can survey the damage.\u00a0 The good news is that I have a ball rolling, and a couple vehicles.\u00a0 The bad news is that Maya just won’t let you paint a texture.\u00a0 Rather than guess projection paint or find some 3d paint tool, I’m going low tech spatter paint.<\/p>\n

Today – Step 1 will be to get stuff attached and becomging sticky.\u00a0\u00a0 If the ball isn’t sticky, the game is isnt’ much of anything than a ball rolling downa a road.\u00a0 Step 2 is to instance a ton of crap to roll up.<\/p>","time":"December 7th, 2008 11:12 am","title":"Going down the road\u2026"}
