I've tested my 3d characters on Vs5 beta and its much better then 4.25. I found some bugs related with 3d stuff and reported to Simon and later he has fixed them. For the character rotation you can check my game The Dark Inside Me, its not perfect but its looks fine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynKTw4JCxh0 ... Below there is a link for the demo, you can download and see how a 3d character can look like in VS.I think Vs5 will be good enough for 3d characters, there wont be dynamic realtime shadows and 3d shader support but it can give you good results if you bake shaders to texture.By the way .x format worked best for me. Collade game me some errors, liked messed up textures and bugy character animations.Thanks for the reply. I watched the video, and it seemed pretty okay. I downloaded the demo and played it. I can say this: I would never import 3d into Visionaire after seeing that. It's not that your work isn't cool. Rotating the character is fine enough, but the lack of blending between walking and idling is way too jarring. Maybe you've found away around this and haven't showed it? I'd like to see it if so.No blend; no nothing. Just an idle to an instant walk to an instant idle. That totally breaks the immersion. I wouldn't say VS has 3d support. I would say it's more like 3d semi-friendly, as in you can import 3d, but you probably shouldn't.I'll render my 3d to sprites for sure and do tests like that instead. Outside of that, it's 2d only in VS, or I'll suck it up and buy Adventure Creator and Playmaker for Unity and go that route.Thanks a lot for showing me that. That's exactly what I wanted to see. Good luck with your game! It has a good atmosphere.

@ Sebastian: maybe you should consider sorting out some of the documentation then? ;)I am just a regular forum / Visionaire Studio user like you. I don't have in-depth knowledge into the inner workings of VS or access to the source code, so all the help I provide on the forum/wiki, is mostly stuff I've figured out myself or have based on logic. Mostly logic, simple as that.I have no idea how libCurl works either, or the openGL shader stuff. I'm not very savvy in C.

No template, sorry. You shouldn't miss a tick for hiding subtitles if game also has a voice-overs. Maybe some list of all available game controls? In case the player is not sure what does what.brightness sliderHow would you do that? With the shader? Will that look good?its an internal player lua command which controls the gamma:SetWindowBrightness(int) int = 0-100https://wiki.visionaire-tracker.net/wiki/SetWindowBrightnessI encountered a strange bug with setWindowBrightness() / getWindowBrightness() when I tried to use it for creating a brightness/contrast option for Midnight at the Celestial Palace. I ended up having to use the shaderLightness() function instead, but I think the brightness option ended up getting scrapped altogether for some reason or other (I think it was because it needed to be checked & declared at begin of each scene in case a save file was loaded as it reset back to default brightness) - was something along those lines anyway.In regards to setWindowBrightness() for some reason the slider wouldn't go all the way to the left, it would glitch out around 20%. As for why, I couldn't find a reason as the conversion calculations were correct as I'd used them for volume settings.@ Thomas: there's always my advanced menu template available, but it's a little old now (at least 2 years), so it contains out of date scripts & methods I no longer use. Since then Simon introduced Lua shorthand & multiple instances of mainLoop & so on.https://www.dropbox.com/sh/594t03agkg18e06/AAC6L2GOFjn_hrLl4fjk4ibja?dl=0P.S: I also provide freelance development/scripting if you are interested. Menu & config.ini seem to be the thing I am mostly asked to sort out, so I guess you could say it's kind of a speciality of mine. ;)

I believe we already have support for some network related features through LuaSocket/libcurl. We have support for openGL shaders too, so if you know C/GLSL then you can write your own shaders. We also have support for Lua script.I think Simon was working on something to allow importing of modules (I vaguely recall him mentioning something about importing something - my memory isn't that great).He's working on new shader stuff at the minute, box2D physics engine & some other stuff.Anyway, to answer your question you should be able to create network based features with libcurl to access data from a website server & probably also to be able to store it too, so you could use it for stats or displaying a news feed in-game.

Hello and welcome to the community! You can add Lua scripts in two ways:1: as general scripts in the sceipts section on the left (last point). Just create a script "object" there and put in your lua functions. These functions can then be called inside functions itself or with an "execute a a script" action part. 2: for small scriptsyou need locally inside your actions you can do them directly  in an "execute a script" action part. Im not sure what you do mean by adding a script fir a game object. Could you give an example what you need here? I also suggest to read the wiki regarding scripting:https://wiki.visionaire-tracker.netThere you can also find some example scripts and how to use them. A flashlight is possible via the shaders script (also lua) which adds glsl shaders to the game. there exists this script:http://www.visionaire-studio.net/forum/thread/flashlight-28812/2/But im not sure if it still works with the current engine version. May the lua script has to be updated to the recent release of the shader toolkit
