Week 14 - Renaming the 816 components of the Nauvion Church in Unity

 in the previous video i had renamed all the components in the SketchUp file only to find out i had named the database wrong so i had to redo everything again. the video above is the result of me naming it correctly.

Issues faced

• I had trouble renaming all the components in the database it was really tiring and i tried ways to group components so i could rename them. 

Solution

• By pressing shift and selecting all the mesh components under each object in the unity file i was  able to select them all at once. I then realised the onyl way to rename them was to go to the right window where the names were and rename them there, otherwise they could not be renamed. 

Remuneration Reflection

Team - Anders & Josh
Project - The Last Suprematist Sculpture

I liked the idea of the duo showing a salary graph of different architectural related occupations. I found it interesting that CAD drafter had one of the lowest incomes and that interior was the highest at $900 000 maximum. When they presented the pros and cons of being a freelancer as opposed to working for a company, i found it very useful as it made me think of how i could plan my future career and the direction i could take it. With the group presenting this information it made things easier as they did the research for me.

One example of a difference they demonstrated was that as a freelancer you can work for the hours you want but it can become very stressful. If you dont like the stress it would be easier to work for a business. It was made clear to me that different locations in Australia have different salaries despite having the same occupation.  

The invoice video was helpful. The group gave a very in depth tutorial on how to submit an invoice. they talked about what details you will need in the invoice, which is 2 weeks then you can get paid. I also found it helpful that there is a software called time doctor which can track the usage and hours of work you put into your work. It can pick up websites and programs that you use.

Overall i found the presentation very engaging and interesting and learned a lot from it, i love when i watch a presentation and come out knowing i learned something new. I think this team so far had the best presentation this semester as the topic was very relevant and useful to me.

Week 14 - Nouvious - Renaming the components in the second church

This is a video of me renaming all the components in the second church.

Week 13 - Background Design, Options page & about page

I was given the role to create the background for every page besides the main menu. I came up with an old Gothic looking background with the map of France and church of Cercueil to fit the theme of our project. I also designed so that the buttons on these pages can be clicked on so that it can take you to another page. The results are shown below in the images

What i learned

• I was able to understand how coding works and how to create scripts so that i can click on a button which takes me to another page.
• I learned how to create a background and insert it into unity. 

Problems Faced

• I had trouble with the code as i had simple compilation errors. they consisted of me not adding ";" at the end of the code.

Week 13 - exploding & renaming the 26 campaign sections to FBX and SKP files

This is a video of me exploding the campaigns. I exploded the 26 campaigns and turned them into individual FBX and SKP files. This was done so that the timeline script can show every individual campaign in unity.

Problems

• The naming of the files was wrong. i had named the files for example "CERSE_2a~150" i had to go into unity and rename them to "CERSE_2a_BAS~150" so it could connect to the database. I had to do this for all components. The results are shown below of the campaigns in unity working with the timeline.
