Now your final question seems pretty interesting...I'm not sure if it works that way But I have never tried that so I can't say for sure...I will try that tomorrow(actually it's already today)...But i think you can just make it as enemy (not sure for this either) By the way you can you can ask as many question as you want...After all that's the point of this Sub Forum. And again your welcome! RE: Making an entity - MrDosht - 10-28-2012 Excellent! In which case I have another question, I managed to get the billboard into the model viewer and, even though it's upside down, get it into the game. The only problem is the billboard is separate from the water monster and is positioned precisely in the middle of the map D: how do I attach it to the water monster?

RE: Making an entity - Statyk - 10-29-2012 Looking at White Night's Firelurker, it looks like he put the Waterlurker Sphere into a 3D modelling program and attached a joint to it. He then attached all sounds/particles/billboards to said joint. Perhaps you should do that. RE: Making an entity - ZodiaC - 10-29-2012 (10-28-2012, 03:52 PM)MrDosht Wrote: Excellent!

Or maybe you could attach the billboard to water lurker with a light! RE: Making an entity - MrDosht - 10-29-2012 I looked at dark rooms pedobear file and it appears that he has attached the billboard (the right way up -_-) to the waterlurker with a bone. So thanks Statyk for pointing me in the right direction, but how do I actually create a bone? all I can find are joints D: RE: Making an entity - ZodiaC - 10-29-2012 (10-29-2012, 11:02 PM)MrDosht Wrote: I looked at dark rooms pedobear file and it appears that he has attached the billboard (the right way up -_-) to the waterlurker with a bone.

RE: Making an entity - The chaser - 10-30-2012 In any modelling program (like blender) open the waterlurker .dae and put a single bone. |
