| BladePong video tutorial | |
| By X-Tatic on4/7/2007 | |
| I have added a set of video tutorials to the Blade3D Help.
You can find the link on the Tutorials page, currently the last video in the list.
What is it?
Well, it’s simply a comprehensive tutorial on making pong from start to finish. That includes rigid body ball, paddles, scoring, etc. It covers setting up a scene, logic diagrams, and event scripts that will hopefully give you a better idea on how to accomplish certain things in Blade3D.
The audio seems to have developed some clicking sound along the way, so I apologize for that, and any erratic viewport movement.
Let me know how you get on trying to reproduce it.
Thanks.
