I stated in the last few blogs, that I wanted the first stage done and ready to show to Dr Lucas by tuesday. As usual, I have not reached my goal. Unfortunately, I have only the basic framework ready which contains the flat plane in the middle of the screen and the whole scene is lit with a basic camera available for user control of the scene.
I have looked over all the maths needed (I think!) for this first stage. The hard part comes when I try to implement this into code. I seem to take everything really literally and so something I find it difficult to get a good grasp on the best way to do things. This usually ends up with a lot of time spent on 'trial and error' so to speak and in turn this will be my biggest downfall as I do not have all the time in the world to complete this project and I really want to get onto the movement of a sphere in the environment.
Progress on the writing of the dissertation has also been non-existent. However, Dr Lucas has mentioned that I should not worry about it til March perhaps so I am, at the moment, trying to focus on the programming side of my project.
Next steps - well I am going to repeat myself here and say that I want the first stage done for next week but for today I need to get as much as possible done for tomorrow to show Dr Lucas.
I also need to ask Dr Lucas for some feedback on the proposal now that we have it back.
