The models were done a good while ago, the test script is done, and the animations are done. What's left are some issues, specifically sorting problems when it comes to cloaking.
1- Looking at the cloaked models in front of bricks will cause the bricks to sort over the transparent model, effectively making the model completely invisible (not wanted)
2- Cloaking and Decloaking are anything but smooth transitions. The insides of the models sort over the outsides (there shouldn't even be insides), so as soon as visibility animations are called we get an abrupt overlap of the insides over the outsides. Obviously not wanted.
3- Some parts of the model don't even cloak (buttons, chain links, etc.), they just abruptly vanish. Obviously not wanted.
4- doColorShift doesn't work at all when it comes to visibility animations (mesh sorting nightmare causing inexplicable effects), so now I'm even contemplating making a 3rd model specifically for the C&D once I bump all the errors out, simply because you'll now be downloading 3 models regardless. This would be the fastest part of this whole affair.
The last thing I want to do is make garbage that half-works when I haven't exhausted all possible fixes yet, so I'm taking the time to go over documents and procedures, even trial and error to fix these issues to produce something of quality. Please be patient.
