Aerial Skiing Prototype

[bonehead07]

Walaber is working on a very cool looking freestyle skiing game! reminds me of Ski Stunt Simulator!

here is a video: http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=ZG5-Ghluhs8

looking good

[M45t3r]

Yeah it looks good, but why is he headbangin while jumping off the ramp ?

[Amynue]

Looks amazing! It has even deformable skiies. Can't wait for first playable version!

[JeffWeber]

That looks amazing! Excellent job.

Using interactive dynamics in 3D has got to be tough to develop!

Look forward to seeing this progress.

Developers finally start using gamepads on PC's a bit more
Gymnast is till owning big time for me, and this looks promising.

I HOPE this might mean a 3D ski stunt game.
That would be fucking epic.

[Virtue]

Aha!.... A few days ago I saw a video by walaber of a ragdoll controlled by an Xbox controller. The video's description wasn't too clear, but now I see what it was for!

Damn....Xbox controllers....

[walaber]

I see everyone found the latest youtube video

I hope to make the game basically a fully 3D version of Ski Stunt, where using a game controller (in order to get analog control that allows flipping AND twisting) you can do all sorts of crazy flips and tricks.

No details on the actual game features yet, I'm just concentrating on getting the physics to work first. I'm making good progress though.

in that first video, I was really bad at controlling the character (and the joints were too flimsy), I'm better now :P

I'll post more when I make some new progress.

You're always putting so much emphasis on using the 360 controller in all of your recent games, are you ever going to think about putting one of them of XBLA? I thought Jello Car would have done great on there, especially since you made it in XNA.

Gymnast is going to be on Xbox's XNA creator's club thing for the public to download.

I really need to buy an adapter for my controller... I'm missing out on all of this Walabery goodness. :P

It will (hopefully) come for us 360'ers in the fall. HOPEFULLY. *Does not point a pistol at Microsoft *

[ShaggE]

"Max, how do you carry a pistol when you don't wear pants?"

"None of your damn business, Sam."

(Sorry, any mention of pistols makes me think of that quote )

Ontopic: I hope so. Consoles + Homebrew = win.

[ben clark]

Sorry but, "HAAALUEGHLUYA!, HALLLEUGHLUA!, halleughlula! halaluya!, HALLLAAALOOOOYA!!!!" *ergem* sorry bout that, oh yeah and walaber you are now god of physics games, if only they would inplement this intp stair dismount 2 , also I can imagine game ideas beyond just skiing!!

I need mah xbox 360 controller to pc hookup thing. I have four wireless controlleers and no adaptors D:

[walaber]

both JellyCar and Gymnast will be available for free as soon as Microsoft lets the Community Games system go live to all Xbox Live users... They've been saying that this will happen in the "Fall"... maybe they will announce more at E3 this year.

This game is only using a controller because I couldn't think of a way to allow for full analog control of a character without using a controller

I'll post more when I've made some progress.

I do really like the controller usage in your games. It allows fluidity when, a keyboard only allows basic ones.

How did you miss out on that? The internet pretty much exploded on that day.

Ontopic: Any chance of breakable skis?

You mean the internet video game show were there was this bald guy on it and he got to play it and it showed footage of it on just a cam-corder?

Sorry I don't really pay to much attention on internets to much because I'm busy alot of the time.
