ABOUT
We’ve received a request to make a boat simulator in Virtual Reality.
We went on a crazy trip on a real boat to get more inspiration for our project that we have made.
While on the boat we had seen the outdated version of the game that we had to update and got some requirements from our client to work with.
After our trip we had a great start as we were one of the first groups that got floating physics for our boat.
The VR controls went pretty good but we had some trouble with implementing the handles.
Added the art objects to our project and lastly baked our lightning and optimization.
We are proud at our current state of our product and we had allot of frustrating moments but still kept the fun in it!

Lever
This object gives us feedback between -1 and 1 and that’s the value we use to move our ship.
As well as the audio multiplier will use the value to control the volume for the engine of the ship.

TOOLS
Container Tool:
We have made a tool where we can change the scale, position and quantity from to speed up the work progression of our project.

Spline Tool:
We made a spline tool to controle the spline direction and to make several corners.

Ripple solver
We had boat wakes, sadly this hasn't added in the project as it was a little too heavy and to time consuming to add it in our project.
Simulator comes to life !
We have added a seagull at the start of the game to add more life to our project.
Water lock
Our water lock works with 3 different rivers. The middle river is the one that will rise or lower. As well as the doors will open once the ship hits a trigger.
The ship will rise or lower with the water once the ship is inside the water lock.
This all happens automatically.

We kept in touch !
Our communication was pretty good. We kept everything on Trello and talked to each other through Discord.
As for the artists, we contacted them through a separate chat or face to face.
Once a task was done, it went to the done tab. The rest speaks for itself of course.
