hello, Is it possible (and how) to connect scratch with web camera to make a kind of Virtual Reality movie (like eye-toy, i-rex, wii, etc.)

Re: scratch and web camera

Sadly, I doubt it. If you want to mess around with the possibility, download the Scratch 1.0.1 image file here, then  drag the file "1.0.1" into the Scratch cat icon. This will open Scratch 1.0.1. Then, shift click on "Extras", then select "show experimental blocks" and "start camera sensor". These will enable some new blocks that control movies and camera function. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how either feature works, and I'm getting a red error box when I try to start the camera sensor with my hacked eyetoy. Good luck, though!
