Re: How do you make 3d games
You don't. It's impossible.

Re: How do you make 3d games
It's not impossible, it is just hard. You can make a sprite look 3D by adding shading and shadows to it, to make it not look like a flat picture.
Search 3D projects on scratch and you should find a gallery that features a lot of 3D projects

Re: How do you make 3d games
Sorry but your not gonna get a clear cut answer on this one, its not as simple as clicking a little toggle between 2D and 3D

Re: How do you make 3d games
I've heard of a program called "Blender," but I have NO IDEA how to use it. Oh, and you can download it here.
It's true. I do love Scratch.
Cool! That was rainbow text! (Forum glitch

Blender is too complex for me. I can't even get it to render! (I don't know why it isn't!?!)
That's my PSN ID. I know tons of COD4 glitches. Add me as your friend. Oh, and get a headset

Blender is for making 3D models, and you can't use 3D models in Scratch unless:
1) They come out with a 3D model compatible (which, as coolstuff said, will probably be never)
or
2) You save the render image as a JPEG (or another format) and import it into Scratch.
As for not being able to render in Blender, I can help you with that, but not in this forum.

Re: How do you make 3d games
You can render 3D sprites in other programs and then use them to simulate 3D in scratch. See the game in my signature below for an example of what this looks like

Re: How do you make 3d games
I use blender. If you download one of my 3d project, you see that:
I just take like 20 screenshot of my blender project and add it in my scratch project. You can not make true 3d environment in scratch, its impossible. Possibly in a forthcoming version of scratch.

Re: How do you make 3d games
its not that hard. too make a 3D strafing game, all you have to do is make 2 variables (x and distance,) then make some sprites. now imagine a grid. you can place your sprites somewhere one the grid, so if you want to put 2 sprites next to each other, make 2 "x" variables (i did x and x2) and for each one say "forever set x to (variable x)" and "forever set size to (variable distance)" Do that for the other one, except have "x2" instead of "x." the same applies for distance, with "distance 2" and so on, but with size instead of x. If that sounds complicated, look at this project: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/radicalace/279558, and then download it to see how i did it. it works very well.

Re: How do you make 3d games
Actually, I used to use blender, but now I use Art of Illusion. It's easy to use, and It's free! It also exports renders, that's how I made the 3d cutscenes for Zombie Hunter 3.4.1!

Re: How do you make 3d games
Also, It is actually possible to make REAL 3d in scratch. They manage to do it with Microsft: putting a 3d Image on a 2d screen! if you look at the projects like that old wireframe cube, that's the idea, but it's extremely hard to program all the vertexes and faces.
