I've spent a ridiculous amount of time sorting out the level with lighting and arranging the prefabs. I also made the decision today to rebuild the level with unrealed primitives using ash's blockout as a template. There was talk of rebuilding before at some point, and it was very necessary, so I just went ahead and did it.
It's important that you send me all you upks before the weekend, I would like to have some time to spend on my 2D work, and If I'm lucky have some time off.
I'm not in the best mood when writing this. Mainly because I feel like the days and days off effort are going to be shrugged off by whoever's grading us, If I thought we were going to be graded fairly, I might be feeling a bit satisfied now... but I'm not.

also id appreciate it if no one made any changes to the blockout mesh, weather it be unreal or max its still my model and i wouldn't dream of touching any body else's models.
megan iv just found out about this a few moments ago and i would like to comment on how rediculouse this is if you didnt realise its called plagiarism and its a seriouse offence you could get kicked off the course so i suggest not taking ashleys hard work and effort and throwing it in the trash because frankly i dont think you could do a better job as he has had more experience in the engine and looking at everyones blockouts his is the best oh and btw ash informed me there was no talk of rebuilding it was of just fixing things so making things up to make it easier for you to explain your plagiarism is a bit childinsh and obviouse!
Upon readin these comments, I went straight to ash's house to talk to him in person. We resolved all issues, and are going to be working together in the lab tomorow. There were no bad intentions, sorry to anyone I upset.
LOL Adam plagiarism is passing off other peoples work as your own, she remade the blockout because the original was a mesh converted into brushes which generates uber lighting issues among other major engine problems, epic will back me up on that....
Megan was unaware that ash was rebuilding it or she wudnt have done it. blame ur groups poor comunication with each other
>_> Plus this is a team project, u cant plagurise in a team project
lol back actualy she was using ashes hard work over the past few weeks and plagerising that i didnt mean the blockout so learn to understand what people wright not just read it and make stupid comments.
actualy it was completely made in unreal as brushes so get your facts straight jesus! you can plagerisein a team project as we are all still competeing for grades and a job!

hey Adam, if you could read my blog and know exactly what I thought was happening i would be grateful. I had no bad intentions towards your brother, but i completely understand that you are trying to defend him.
We have both worked hard, I just hope this is apparent when we get graded.
I do not believe that I have committed an act of plagiarism, and if you still think I have, then know that it wasn't intentional.
Your brother has worked hard for our group, and hopefully everything will come together nicely as a result of that.
and everyone just quit already! have we forgotten the main moral of the worlds greatest story??
'Be excellent to each other..
...and party on dudes!'
this has escalated to being nothing to do with you any more im just defending myself now i know about your intentions and ashleys extensive work i just find just saying your redoing ashleys blockout is a kick in the teath to all ashleys efforts you didnt even speak to him but thats all sorted now but i dont like petty childish comments from jesus especially when theyre flawed, its like being in a playground jesus had no right to comment and even if he did he could have used facts instead of making up crap for no reason other than to insult me i mean "LOL ADAM" come on if thats not childish i dont know what is!
its a dog eat dog world megan that comments just a fairytale tbh
Yeh Jesus does have the tendency to say the wrong thing at the wrong time. But I think he was just trying to defend me in the same way you were defending your bro.
I prefer to live in a fairytale :p its easier :)
I hope we can all get along anyway, sorry for upsetting you too. Upsetting people is the last thing I want to do!
Isn't it funny how people hardly ever comment? and as soon as something like this happens everyone rushes in!
Shows how much we have a passion for justice eh?!
We should change the course title from Game art to like.........
.....Justice League!
my dads bigger than your dad
lololol
well my mums bigger than your dad....... so ner
my mums dead :(
*rasbery noise*
JOG ON :P
Ooo wee just read through this entire thing and i can see the biggest problem here was communication, that or peoples pride getting in the way.
At the end of the day something was produced which didn't quite fit the bill and needed to be amended. Megan decided to recreate the blockout working from Ashley's blockout so everything would fit and be proportional, I can remember on several occasions her telling me she was going to rebuild the blockout and how she'd discussed it with the relevant ppl and how she really didn't want to do it but felt forced because of the state of the then current one, so im not sure where you got the notion of this cloak and daggers stuff.
As for the plagiarism accusations thats just odd, Megan copied the existing blockout so all the existing models, lighting and textures would fit minus the lighting errors a logical step to take. While I know she could have easily produced her own blockout, working to plans and so forth she copied the preexisting one for the reasons already mentioned, not to take the credit but simply to move the project along
For my project theres quite a few of peoples models and texture pages I've had to tweak to get them looking as good as possible in Unreal, because I've edited them a little bit im not taking credit for them and for the most part im not even going to mention it. But a group project implies a team effort and unless job boundaries are well defined its gonna become a bit blurry about who made what at the end of the day
id post a comment defending myself but it would be almost as pointless as your comment, so im not going to bother. just finished laughing about your comment with some friends. cheers! :D
haha carter i was waiting for your inevitable comment. where ever a certain someone goes, you follow.
Wow guys, you're even out-doing our project on the drama side of things.
Nice job. :o)
wow Ashely and Adam, you've really outdone yourselves this time - had a laugh about it? Im glad the whole point of it shot over your head and inevitable comment? The whole problem you have with your group is you don't comment at all, so try and follow my lead
I like the way adam can only insult and never come up with a proper comment where as everyone else actually uses their comment to explain or make a point.
I just explained made a point and Insulted u all in one so SB... :P
And Carters comment had completely sound wisdom in so maybe u shud re-read it
Okay guys, I'm calling a halt to this. A blog is not the right forum for this and this is our team blog and we're trying to get our project finished and concentrate on that. I will delete any comments left after this one, capiche?
