Episode Synopsis "Reverse the Verse: 2.12 Austin"

Today’s guests were Senior Animator, David Petty and Lighting Artist, Emre Switzer. Some of the animations used such as mopping for example are a way to ground the player and immerse them. While it is the future, having elements like that bring the player back down to earth so to say. NPCs will behave with one another as they would with a player and you’ll see NPCs behavior change based off who they are and where they are in the universe. More emotes are something they’d like, just depends on the design team and what they want. Emre Switzer was originally a contributer on the Star Citizen Subreddit until he saw the job posting for a Lighting Artist Initially he had experience in CryEngine, but not lighting other than being a photographer, so he spent 3 months learning as much as he could and got the job. Emre has worked on Arc Corp, Original Star Marine, Recently Grim Hex and soon to be released Star Marine. He’s also currently working on 3.0 landing sites such as Hurston and Microtech. Destructible lights are something they plan on doing, those things will come when item system 2.0 is in place and then they can overhaul the mechanics of such things. *This was lifted and slightly edited, for use as a podcast, from the Star Citizen YouTube channel.
