Grave of the Fireflies: Sprint 10

 During this sprint, I created and finished the swing rig. I created it using IK Spline handles in the ropes and a controller leading clusters that deform the curves. The simple control set makes animating the swing fast and easy.

I problem-solved in integrating the post-process toon material into the scene. The toon lines were appearing through additive/translucent elements such as the fire and the fireflies. I created a translucent sprite render material for the fire to pair with the additive sprite render, with custom depth writes checked. I switched the fireflies to a masked material. In the scene, I checked to allow custom depth writes on the fire and fireflies and then updated the post-process material so that it uses the custom depth pass to mask out the toon lines.

Before, toon lines penetrate fire

After

Allow Custom Depth writes

Addition to the post-process material

Additionally, I added the credits plane into the level sequencer so that it plays.
