Hard to see here, but Tetra and Zelda use the same system as Link.

Random Wind Waker fact: to render his eyes and eyebrows properly, Link's model relies on the game engine to toggle flags for writing to the color and depth buffers; this information isn't stored in the model's materials. Rendering the model as it's stored on-disc results in this.

Bandito Link!

Here's a demo of something that helped get me hired with Rockstar: custom train tracks in Red Dead Redemption 2. This is a mod for RedM, an online platform for RDR2 that was initially third-party until Rockstar bought its parent group, CitizenFX, last year.

Flashback to when I finished decompiling The Wind Waker's treasure chest object, and decided to have some fun with it afterward... by making ice trap chests! This is an official part of WWRandomizer now.

Here's some bonus images: these show the position of the camera, over time, for the cut-scene that plays during The Wind Waker's title sequence. To get these, I ran the cut-scene in my engine and dumped each point in the camera's position to a Wavefront OBJ file as it played out.

I haven't worked on this project in a couple of weeks, but it got pretty far: an engine to view in-game cut-scenes from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, and Pikmin 2. All three of those games use a common library called JStudio to play back demos.

Aaaand fixed.

The game even has a "normal" version of him holding his arms out, which is shown later:

He's an example of some fun tricks game devs use to get clean camera shots. Left is what this scene looks like in-game, right is the animation the King of Hyrule is actually playing. His arms are stretched out so the camera can face Tetra without clipping into his body.
