COMP4411 - Modeler

Basic Requirements

• We hooked the Rotate slider to the ears of the cat

Bonus (Bells and Whistles)

• W dramatic light: yes
  • You can set a new light position and increase the intensity.
• W adjustable LoD: yes
  • You can change the detailness of the tails by changing the "Number of tail components"
  • Or "Number of Triangle in ear"
  • Or even changes the detailness of the torus by changing the model quality
• W your idea: yes
  • You can change the dimension of the model
  • So basically it is an extension of adjustable LoD
• B texture map: yes
  • Only implemented for the cat body, but it is good enough
• B polygonal faces (triangles): yes
  • Please refer to the ear at the creature (cat) head
  • Again, you can control the number of triangles by dragging "Number of Triangle in ear"
• B animation: yes
  • A swinging tail, it's cute, isn't it?
  • Btw make sure set "Shows Inverse Kinematics Tail" to 0 to see our cute cute swinging tail
• B individual looking (not just red/green): yes
  • You can drag "Individual Instances" to see more
• B frame all: yes
  • You will have to uncheck the Frame All function if you would like to use zoom
• BW up vector: yes
  • Hold the ALT key and use the right mouse to twist the camera
• 2B new primitives for each: yes
  • We did torus, which is opengl red book implementation
• 2B L-system: yes
  • A L System tree is attached as the second tail of the cat
  • You can use "L System Depth" to control the tree size
• 2B mood cycling: yes
  • "Mood Cycling" allows you to change the face of the cat
  • Also, the tail swinging speed varies according to the mood of the cat
  • The light colour varies according to mood too
• 4B metaballs: yes
  • Set "Enable Organic Model" to 1 for enabling this feature
  • It will alter the cat's head
• 8B goal-oriented motion: yes
  • Set "Shows Inverse Kinematics Tail" to 1 for enabling this feature
  • You can use Target X / Y / Z to control the position of the inverse kinematics tail
  • We choose to create another tail instead of reusing the same tail cuz we are lazy
• 4B joint contraints: yes
  • You can use "Angle Constraint for Inverse Kinematics" to control the angle contraints
