Description of tasks/assignments:


September 11: Trying to implement particle system inside the game. Irrlicht have it's premade particle system, so, I take my time to understand how particle actually works. It is interesting how mathematical functions can be used to make a simple sprite to an interesting visual effect.

September 12: I did not manage to implement the particle system sucessfully, I have problem with the size of the particle and how it should looks like. I choose to KIV it and concentrate to other part first.

September 13: Enhancing collision, improve the bounding box by using a radius to change the collision effect towards the bounding box. After the office hour, most of us went to Century Square and play futsal there. I get to know more of MDeC's staff there. Have a chat with Hasnul (Head of Creative Multimedia Department of MDeC) there about Games Development scene in Malaysia.

September 14: Today, I asked Mr. Syafiq to come and help to touch up their work for the project. Him and I discussed of how to make the terrain looks better and we agree on several solution such as creating fog surrounding the level itself and to modify the terrain mesh so that it will look like endless terrain.

September 15: Around the end of the office hour, Mr. Azmir suddenly said "The games looks good" to me and Mr. Azim. Maybe he get a sneak peak while I was doing it today. The compliment really boost our spirit although we are the only 2 person left doing this project.
