Hello [Code_Name: MEVYE] [Location: CLASSIFIED], welcome back!

Today we will talk on how we work we external asset packs for Noise Hunters!

As a group of students in Game Design, our knowledge is limited in certain areas, such as 3D modelling and animation. So the best solution to cover this area in the development of Noise Hunters, is to buy online assets that fit our needs. However, this is no perfect as it seems.

When you are in the search of visual assets for your game, you have to keep in mind one thing: you won't find exactly what you want. Knowing this, you should look for assets that get the closer to your ideas. Once we collected the main chunk of assets, we started to use them directly, this way we see easily what we have to modify so it fits us perfectly. With this method you have the big detailed base and you only have to do small modifications that don't require much prior knowledge.

In Noise Hunters, we mainly modify 3D props and modify (or create if needed) animations, with the help of the UMotion tool. The process looks something like this:

1. Try to implement asset.
2. Check if the result is what we want.
3. If it doesn't meet our requirements, we identify what we have to change.
4. For models, copy the .FBX to 3D software and for animation in UMotion.
5. Do the modifications.
6. Export and Replace.
7. Check if the result is what we want.

Thanks for reading and don’t make any noise! 🤫
