Hey kids,
We've been working on tiki magic.
We have multi player working as well as instant replay for awesome shots! We also added a cool trail effect to the balls, and a map style flyover! Anyway, here are some updated screens.
Cheers,
CG

| great news! multiplayer and replays? nice! if i can ask, how'd you do mp - did you write a plugin or figure a way through scripting? and also on the replays - how do you decide what qualifies as a cool shot? i'm not looking for specifics, just conceptual method stuff as both play into what i'm working on. |

Wow thanks David! You guys rock! Unity is amazing. (it's a love fest).
pete-
For multiplayer we just scripted it up.
The replay was fun, you can specify what is tagged and played back.
In our case, we got lucky. Right now we are saying anything beyond a certain distance to the hole is a cool shot. |

That looks a LOT better than the tiki golf they ripped off and put on the iPod!

Thanks guys! A little encouragement goes a long way.
With so much production left to be done, much of the focus can be on what needs to be improved. So it's good to hear the positive.
Cheers,

Is it a one-computer multiplayer mode or a internet/lan multiplayer feature ?
-Great job. Looks very nice.

Charles, are you past the point of production that you can share playable demos with us? In other words, are we looking at screens that will be in the final game? If you could share some more playable levels with us without ruining the final game then that would be great.
I want to see/study a few things you're doing... it looks like you're using bloom on the background image. And I want to see how well the trail works on the ball. Just hoping that you could share one more playable preview with us. |

I just had a thought about the water in screenshots 3 and 4 from the top - You may want to play with the "FX-Water Reflected.shader" file a bit depending on the scale of your scene. The range for the _ReflDistort property is pretty small as Unity ships... you may want to try increasing it to something larger so you can play with a larger range with the slider. I have done this for some scenes because it's a heck of a lot easier to change this than to rescale a big scene smaller.
A lot of reflection distort seems to let you get away with a fairly low resolution render texture without seeing pixelation. If you're going for a still water effect then perhaps a large texture is the only option, but I thought I'd mention this.
| Code: | Shader "FX/WaterPlane (reflective)" {
Properties {
_WaveScale ("Wave scale", Range (0.02,0.15)) = .07
_ReflDistort ("Reflection distort", Range (0,100)) = 0.5
_horizonColor ("Fallback horizon color", COLOR) = ( .172 , .463 , .435 , 1)
_ReflectionTex ("Environment Reflection", 2D) = ""
_ColorControl ("Color ramp (RGB) fresnel (A) ", 2D) = ""
_BumpMap ("Waves Bumpmap (RGB) ", 2D) = ""
_ColorControlCube ("Fallback color cube (RGB) fresnel (A)", Cube) = "" { TexGen CubeReflect }
_MainTex ("Fallback texture", 2D) = ""
}
*SNIP*

(Still can't get enough of the blue tinge in the glowing sky of Lost Temple. )
Cheers,
-Jon

I would love to post a build, but I can't.
If anyone would like to help test, email me privatly and I'll get you hooked up. The condition for testing is to write feedback though.
aarku, thanks for the tip!
Cheers,

Considering I actually enjoyed the golf version of Neverball, I suspect I'll be buying this
