BYOB - First ever Scratch True 3D Game Engine!

THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH SKYDRIVE WHICH CAUSES THE PROJECT TO NOT RUN ON SCRATCH. RENAME THE FILE AND REMOVE THE UNDERLINES (_) FROM EACH SIDE AND THEN RUN IT.

Arrow Keys to Move. Space to Jump.

BYOB ONLY:
Clicky.  smile

This game engine, based off my Wireframe 3D Renderer is the first of it's kind on scratch. You can move and jump and the camera will follow you. You can turn the camera following off at any time.

The cube can easily be swapped for any model by switching the lists - but unfortunately you must hard code the model as 3 lists. The background is an image placed in 3D space (true texturing would take too long).

The engine uses Bounding Box Collision (meaning that a 3D box is calculated around the object that is used for collision) to detect collision with certain points. You can collisde with the camera, back wall and floor - and in the future possibly platforms.

True 3D games are very possible in scratch, but they would be VERY slow (this engine already runs unbearably slow even with BYOB's atomicism) and VERY hard to make. This is a step in that direction - but until scratch speeds up this is basically unfeasable.

Tell me what you think - but make sure it doesn't include "slow", because I warned you.  smile

I have BYOB, but I can't seem to run it?

I am using BYOB 2.0

Re: BYOB - First ever Scratch True 3D Game Engine!

Skydrive seems to be putting Underlines (_) at either side of the filename. I suggest that you remove these from the filename and try to run it again.

Re: BYOB - First ever Scratch True 3D Game Engine!

I can run it...
Download BYOB 2.0  then run it.
Click file > open > then pick RHY's project, and it works...

Re: BYOB - First ever Scratch True 3D Game Engine!

I'll try it when I get home. Sounds interesting, yet also possibly not as good as it sounds. I'm only saying that because of experience with other scratch projects. Of course if this is coming from you... Than it probably won't  smile

It says that the creator deleted it. Did you do that?

I didn't delete nothing no how.  tongue

I don't know why your BYOBs aren't running it... I've re-uploaded numerous times and still people are having problems (still works fine for me...)

No it isn't. It is rendered as Real 3D the same way normal 3D PC games do (except in wireframe. The only thing that isn't real is the textured background.

Re: BYOB - First ever Scratch True 3D Game Engine!

It works for me!
Try to make it run realtime... PLEASE!!!
More than one sprite and one script is ok (in this case the one sprite 1 script is actually MAKING it lag)!

It's only one model - so it doesn't need more than one sprite one script. Also - it's meant to be adaptable so you can put your own models in it.
