This is in help with scripts because it's for anyone who wants to do 3d, or has found a new way to do 3d scripting.
The ultimate challenge with scratch and it's 2d design tools and absence of z axis is to create a 3d effect. This topic is not for people to show how they did 3d. This is to tell people who don't know how to how to.
My current 3d script involves a huge room sprite moving at the same time in the opposite direction to the person.

RED = Fixed Gramatical Error
BLUE = Continuity Error
YELLOW = I have something to say in reply
Colors not listed in the key are mixes of two colors that are in the key.

The D standing for dimension is supposed to be CAPITALIZED

Why don't you share with us your example?

Well, there's stamping...

Thats kind of mean-spirited to correct his every error. hmm

But then again I dont understand the purpose of this topic anyways, he isn't asking for help. Maybe Requests would fit better...

Wow...this is kind of perfect timing for me making this project: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/AtomicBawm3/2665067

Has anyone ever tried something like this?

(Pretending he didn't get growled at and hoping no one will ask him to spell antidisestablishmentarianism)
No, i haven't! That is very good because it isn't just and illusion- the computer actually thinks it's 3D. My 3D project (see my stuff, go to 3D Demo) is an illusion. The computer belives it is 2 2D sprites moving around, just to humans, one of them is massive and looks 3D. (hippomonstrousquippideliphobia- fear of long words, i had to put that in so you had something to whinge about)

Who? Me? You should really address the people you refer to.
And I am hoping no one will ask you to spell hippomonstrosesquippedaliophobia, or pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.

Yes it is.

Computers don't think.

You spelled that wrong. It's: "hippomonstrosesquippedaliophobia"

Assuming that this is a reference to my reply to you, (And assuming you DIDN'T just look up "whine" in a thesaurus), I don't know why you would think I have hippomonstrousquippedeliphobia.

Why do I think this has a good chance of turning into a flame war?... Anyway you should stay on topic wink . It's possible to use stamping to create a 3D effect, by changing the Y position, then stamping on the needed costume. However, for people with knowledge of more advanced math, it is possible to create 3D effects using the scratch pen.

Wes64 · 2012-07-10 15:06:00

henley, knock it off. hmm

pinnipediator · 2012-07-11 13:01:06

Yeah henley...... tongue
Also,

Hippomonstrosesquippedaliphobia

Let's see....
The ses bit in the middle and it's dali, not deli. Thanks!
Also, by "computers thinking" i meant that the computer treats it as 3D, it has 3 programmed dimensions within the screen.
Also, henley, why me? Random finickyness, desire to be annoying, or actual dismay at my gramatical skills? I want to be an author when i grow so this is sort of good for me, not saying i don't want you to stop.

pinnipediator · 2012-07-11 13:04:46

Also, henley, i never really post from a computer. I always post from my phone, which limits me to 512 characters, so everything is always shortened. You can tell if i'm on a computer if i link to something that isn't a homepage, or i post a picture. I was on a computer to make my signature.

Now, back on topic!

henley · 2012-07-11 16:35:52

For Wes64's sake, I'll stop doing whatever it was that I was doing wrong.

hmm

Still not sure.

I was correcting you, that's all. Then when you insulted me, naturally, I responded.

But I'll just stop posting on this thread as of now. People are getting angry, and passive agressive. Cough, cough.

My 3D theory.
Character controlled by player, controlls variables.
Backboard e.g. Distant hills controlled by variable so that they scroll in the opposite direction to the direction that the player is facing.
Objects by the road e.g.trees grow bigger and move slightly away from the player as the player goes forwards and back. The trees hide at a particular size.
The road plays an animation when the player moves, changing ainimation depending on what direction the player is moving.
Now to make it.

Scratch really does not support 3D games.

pinnipediator · 2012-07-13 12:11:09

Yeah, that's why it's fun to try! And it doesn't have to be games- it can be almost anything- simulations is probably best, but over the shoulder games- i agree scratchers don't have much of a future in them. Leave that to kodu users.

chrisbown · 2012-07-13 15:06:50

Id suggest using the size script as a zoom and 3D looking project and a wall or top down.

pinnipediator · 2012-07-14 02:43:03

My idea uses the same principals chrisbown- the things by the side of the road are controlled by a distance variable which makes them grow, go slightly away from the player and hide at a certain size.
