Technical Artist Summit: Procedural Tool Development for 'Marvel's Spider-Man 2'
Marvels Spider-Man 2 employed over a dozen procedural systems in creation and population of its open world and many more in support of destruction, breakables, effects and characters. The power of procedural systems in production is widely recognized and it's hard to name a studio that isn't taking advantage of them. It allows efficient, rapid generation and iteration of a vast amount of content in game development. Unfortunately, the development of production ready procedural systems themselves can be far from an efficient process. This presentation uses successful and less than successful examples from Marvel's Spider-Man 2 production in a guide to development and implementation of procedural systems from inception.
