WEEK 1 - Exported object from 3dsmax into Cry Engine and Lecture Reflection

I decided to design a very simple house and export it into cry engine.  I was able to experiment with 3dsmax and was forced to learn the program by designing a more complex shape than a cube.

 

I changed the daylight settings in my environment to highlight the environment and imported object.

 

 

 

Unfortunately I was unable to load in the materials I created for the house.

However, I had success in loading the materials for this cube that I made

During the lecture I was taking notes on the effects of 'concrete cancer 'which significantly effect the Hashima Island.  It was interesting to see just how much concrete can decay after such a short period of time.  The sea salt from the surrounding ocean effects the concrete greatly, and I will be exploring similar effects on the Church of Light.
