BioShock dev on PS3-exclusive Ferris Wheel room, Little Sister custom animations |
Ó
One of the new things arriving in Rapture via the PS3 version of BioShock is the Ferris Wheel room. You might remember seeing screenshots of it in an earlier post when we talked about the PS3-exclusive content.
Today, 2K Boston animator Grant Chang discussed how he eventually got this big contraption into the game, despite it not being available in the Xbox 360 and PC versions.
The finished asset was actually physically in the original release of the game, but never used. It was a shame, because it's a really well crafted piece. So I went through the steps of breaking it apart, rigging it and getting it to move convincingly. Then I had to learn some things about collision and getting the Little Sister to stay in the carriage without misbehaving. After a bit of elbow grease and sweat we got a functioning Ferris Wheel in engine. I hope you guys have fun playing in that room!
Chang also talked about how he was tasked to re-animate and tweak the Little Sister. Much to say, he's quite proud of getting to "channel [his] inner child," even if it entailed slowly acting out Little Sister's movements in the middle of their office, with his coworkers throwing him strange glances. "Actually theyÂ’re probably used to it by now," he explains.

That's all....
Bioshock is so good, whenever I get a PS3, I'll buy and play it again
uhhh whats special about this room ?
i can give you 3 reasons why not to buy this:
1.its gona be a port from the 360version which is a gracefuly retarded console.
2.its nearly as old as the ps3 now.
3.theres far more better stuff comeing out dont waste your money guys and gals.
