Several questions: character with gamepad + shader with texts + 3d environment + camera

No sorry mate, I have no idea how the 3D side of the engine works. I'm guessing it's all about positioning & what you set in your 3D program as well. You would need to make it so that the world position is always below the character.

The scale & all that stuff, I have zero clue about at all. Nige or AkcayKaraazmak (not seen him online in ages though) would probably know how to sort it all out.

Thanks Lee. Then I cross my fingers to have again the help of Nigec

For the moment I'm stuck with my project without clue to solve these things.

Or I could continue to do a very standard adventure game, but there are several things I wanted to try.

Simon was going to re do the camera so it used 3D space, I think right now it only tilts and zooms which could be why its impossible to scale things properly

I baked the shadow to the image so it was easier place the model

I don't think you could do something like a geo sphere, if you could you'd also need a shader to make the shading constant

I'll have a play tonight and see if I can help more

Thanks Nigec for trying to help, I really apreciate

If you talk of playing my game tonight, of course you are welcome to try it, but you won't find what I was asking before: that's new things that I would like to add in order to improve the gameplay in the next updates.

Anyway, have a nice weekend everyone!

Oh ok

I hope you had fun then ^^

Anyway it would seem that I can't do what I wanted (character in a sphere, nice keyboard gameplay, etc), so in the end I will probably have to give up with this idea for the moment, until the next update(s) of VS...

It's a shame, I have good ideas of projects and motivation, but I always end stuck because of my lack of knowledge in game engines.

I will simply continue my game TWOTIO (the one I made during Adventure Jam) as initially planned (that is to say a classical point and click adventure), I think there is already a good potential.
