As part of my time at Skyhook Games, I worked on piece of DLC for Train Sim World 3 that was centred around the Midland Mainline train route here in the U.K. During my time with this DLC I got familiar with the TSW development framework, as well as working in a cooperative environment where communication was key. My skills have enabled me to contribute a large amount to the production and release of this commercial product.
Contributions
Scenarios
I was tasked with creating the 7 scenarios for this DLC pack, Scenarios in context are essentially missions. This task required me to think about the user-experience, whilst incorporating my technical ability to create an isolated gameplay experience for the user.
As this was my first experience with this framework, the scenarios served as the way I would get to grips with it.
Train Functionality
Each train in Train Sim World 3 is based on real-world trains, the accuracy of these trains is taken seriously. As such the functionality of each of the controls had to be taken from real-world footage, utilizing Animation Blending in conjunction with Blueprinting to I was able to bring the HST and the Class 158 alive.
