BKZ lab log
Write-ups from the Brooklyn Dead asset pipeline. When assets are generated rather than modelled, a bug is rarely in one asset: it is in a shared assumption, and it shows up across the whole set at once. Numbers are given as measured, including the ones that make the old code look worse.
· roster sheet
Every mob in the detail tier is a row. Posture, corruption, head asymmetry, gait, hair and beard each name a row of another table, and a new mob is a line of numbers rather than a branch. This is what the four currently resolve to.
· asset pipeline
A round on mob detail in Brooklyn Dead. Three mobs turned out to have a chest one tenth of a millimetre deep, two of my own rulings were falsified by the gates I asked for, and the most useful output of the day was three separate refusals.
· rendering
A coverage test told me the hair was perfect. The render disagreed. The bug was not in the geometry or in the test — it was that both of them were wrong about the same thing, in the same direction, and so agreed.
