GAM720 Week 5:02 Interaction Set Up

-
I have built a white box set in Unity with the intention of modelling the assets such as the tents, characters etc, in Maya and importing them in.



A key interaction is the choosing of the card which will give the player as special skill. To do this I needed to create a Wheel of Fortune which will spin and allow the player to stop the rotation and choose a card.

At the moment, I have set up the wheel as the actual game set with a flapper which will interact with it.


I intended to :

  1. Make the wheel spin.
  2. Make the wheel slow down  
  3. Create a Stop Button
  4. Create a close up of the card.
I thought an easy way of checking the interaction would be to model the set and interaction in Unity.


 I have set up hierarchies and grouped the cards, wheel and tents together to make a wheel of fortune with the flapper and post as its own group and a camera set to look down on the wheel/fairground.


  







However, after watching this video,

I am now considering whether it might be more efficient to model the wheel/set in Maya first, export as a png to photoshop, edit and then import into unity as an image.png file.

I can then set up the rotation script and set the colliders in the same way.
