Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Confirm 3-D component requirements within the game context
   • Identify the definition and purpose of 3-D components, with examples
   • Identify the context of 3-D component design within the game design document
   • Create a list of required 3-D components
2. Identify 3-D component integration methods within game architecture
   • Discuss the 3-D component format, file extensions and the ramifications of choice with the relevant personnel
   • Establish the methods of 3-D component loading and usage
3. Establish the content creation pipeline
   • Finalise the required 3-D component list
   • Discuss the hardware and software required for the creation of 3-D components and assets
   • Discuss the methods of naming 3-D components and assets, and file archiving
   • Establish the deadlines for 3-D component creation
4. Integrate 3-D components for testing and analysis
   • Identify the evaluation methods for quality assurance
   • Ensure that the produced 3-D components meet the established quality requirements
   • Make changes to 3-D components, as required, by testing and evaluation
   • Submit the finalised assets with the archiving format outlined in the assignment brief
