More UI, VA documentation (Small post)

Heyo everyone! As mentioned, there probably won't be too much to actually show this week. I will go over the UI, along with a few of the other things, but a lot of this week has been focusing on writing up, and organizing documents for VA work. This is still in the early stages, and it might be a bit before I have much to talk about on that end.

So let's cover the few new UI components. Mostly it was just a few things in the hub.

The indicators for conversations are updated (The "!" marks will likely be changed, or removed.)

I'm thinking of having it only turn yellow when there is new dialogue for the character. (Basically in place of the "!")

A transition to a new background happens when starting dialogue as well. (The actual transition style may change, however).

Overall, the text and window for dialogue has downsized along with the models.

Next is the planet select. Some of the planets have been moved around, and each name, and ally are shown at all times. I find this easier for new players to have a grasp on what character is connected to each level.

The actual medal visuals will be scaled in a more uniform way, and I will likely have greyed outlines for when there are no medals achieved. So basically it's not quite done yet, but progress was made on this front.

That is the brunt of the UI additions. Another thing I did do up this week was the transmission dialogue for Zol'gan2.

With that, there isn't too much more to actually show, but I can say that the process for the next phase of voice acting has started rolling. The scope of the phase accounts for all transmission(in-game) dialogue up until (including)Zol'gan2. I'll be sure to give you guys an update when there's more to go over on that end.

Anyways! I'll catch you all next week! It's going to be about build wrap-up. There is actually quite a few loose ends to tie up here, so it'll be a busy week. Hope you all have a good week, and thanks again!
