The Trigger Instinct mod developers have posted an extensive update to their upcoming mod: The Trigger Instinct mod has recently posted their first development update to the community. After much deliberation on the concepts they will use and the planning of the mod, the team has started their development, and now has many different assets to show off to the community.

About the Mod
For those of you not familiar with Trigger Instincts, it will be a mod that is set out to be an expansion to the Crysis universe that will emphasize on stealth tactics and cinematic story telling. The mod will tackle the existing versatile game play that allows players different methods of going about their business from stealth to blazing through their enemy.

3D Art - WIP Character "Fury"
Up first is some of their different 3d Art that they have put together. The main character, named Fury, has been under heavy development by Vitor Moura who is currently turning Yun Lings concept art into reality. These are very early WIP shots, the next step is completing the head with shaping and the finer details. After that the body is to be completed, then the normal mapping and texturing. Below are work in progress screenshots of the 3D model of Fury:

Grammy nominated composer Rick Balentine has been working on a score for the mod game menu, there is still much experimentation and establishing where they would like to go with this but the mod team is happy to show it off for the public to have a listen to!

Ingame - Animation Progress
Andy Hood is currently working on improving his knowledge to further adapt to CryEngine2 and the animation system within the engine. His main focus at the moment is polishing up his Weight Mapping techniques and Rigging of facial bones.
