Week 1 report

So we got the wheels spinning now and everything looks perfect.
We managed to go ahead of the plan and there will be a new picture of the updated plan which describes better the situation.
After a meeting where we agreed on the Game modes topic, I had the task to put down all the ideas we discussed about, and Cristi went on with the Gameplay topic.
At the moment it is Saturday to Sunday, I can say we are very well organised and matching the same goals in the team makes us very organised and we manage to collaborate and synchronise perfectly.
While Cristi is working on Gameplay topic, I went ahead of the plan and prepared some nice animations of the cars that will be used in game. Here they are:

 Dacia R12 1300                                   Dacia Sport 1310

 Dacia Lastun 500                                   Dacia Lastun 500 Rally

 Dacia Solenza                                   Dacia Super Nova

Oltcit Club

Dacia Logan                                   Dacia Logan Police Car

Dacia Sandero                                    Dacia Logan MCV Concept Steppe

Dacia Duster                                    Dacia Duster Rally

So these are only 13 of the cars that will be available to the users to play with. Of course other cars will be available but this is just to have a starting point to make yourself an idea about the graphics.

Feel free to search for these on Google Images and you will see how close these little models are to reality. It took 5 and a half hours to create this cute animations, and now this project has become personal as I put a lot of soul into this.
Now we know what "toys" we will use in the game, the next thing we need to do is to gather up as much information as possible about these models, to implement their real horse power, weight, size, and other parameters in our physics engine to make it as real as possible.
This task will be assigned to Cristi while I will move further to research the "playground" seeing the fact that we got the toys.

Here is how the plan looks after one week:

We managed to finish earlier than planned the topic regarding Game modes, Characters and Gameplay are in progress but started sooner than expected, so we really hope to push the deadline closer to present and have more time for final touches and for polishing the Design Document.

Next post will include the updated plan for week 2.
