I don't know that much about the GE, but I have some experience with game dev in general. I'll list things that I would find useful. Some of this might exist already and I'm not aware of it. Scripted event handlers: overrideable functions such as Touched or Damaged on a per-object basis. def event_t...

That is no good! Here's the contact page for the e-shop. It gives an email address. Hopefully you'll get a response.

TillimannBanana,

You might have flipped normals.

- TAB into Edit mode
- Press A until all verts/faces selected
- Press CTRL+N to recalculate normals
- TAB out of Edit mode and see if your shading has improved

Hope this helps...

Thanks pete, it's truly appreciated.

The fluid sim generates an animated mesh, but I don't know enough about it to tell you. You will want to try the Blender Artists Forum, where all sorts of content answers are given. Good Luck!

can I download the tuts? it's hard to watch them as streaming media. I like to keep libraries of tuts to remember stuff. They should all be AVI format or something non-streaming. If your browser wants to play them instead of download, just right-click the links, and "Save As." If you have trouble w...

thanks for the videos link.. is it the blender essentials book that she is talking about? Yep, that's the one. I'll also plug my own video tutorials again, in case you want a paced walk through the interface and and basics: Blender Basics Part 1 . There are currently 2 other parts of the series ava...

Try the Blender e-Shop: http://blender3d.org/e-shop/.

And if you haven't seen the video tuts, there are some here: http://www.blender.org/tutorials-help/video-tutorials/

Ahh very good!

Using the empty instead of the bone keeps that teeny wobble away. Thanks for that.

Shameless plug:

Try Blender Basics Part 1

doublepanic, If I'm understanding your question, you could do it this way: 1) Extrude another small bone from point D (this would be bone.003) 2) Add an IK solver to Bone.002 and set its target to "Armature" or whatever the name of your armature is. 3) Set the IK solver's bone target to the new bone...

You may want to try VLC Player to run the video, it seems to play just about everything.

Dr. Kaboooooom, Make sure your codec is set to a reliable format. I use Quicktime, with the settings: Animation|30fps|Millions of colors+|Best. This is basically a lossless output, so the files are on the big side (but not nearly as bad as uncompressed RGB). After selecting the codec in the dropdown...

I imported a .md2 file into Blender and the file was animated where it moved perfectly but it has NO SKELETON!!! :shock: :? Can anyone tell me how the creators of this file must have animated it without using a skeleton whatsoever? It looks like md2 (Quake2) is a vertex only format. This means that...

Additionally, if the object emitting the particles is parented to the bone (rather than a vertex group relationship) then the curve can have a simple child-to-parent relationship with the target object. This will work if you're emitter object doesn't need weighting deformations, but only rigid linki...
