360 degrees point and click games?

Hi,

Is it possible to create 360 degree environments for point and click games like Myst 4?

Here's an example:

If so, can you please provide a link with a similar technique in Construct 2 or a sample file?

Thanks in advance.

No one?

sorry bud, Construct 2 is for 2D games. 3D games are possible but very limited.

edit: myst was way older than i thought

I think you're totally wrong, Myst and other similar games are very very old, they weren't using any 3D engine or something like that, they use a 2D map that was displayed using spherical coordinate to simulate the aiming of the camera. I'm pretty sure they use an spherical map or an equirectangular map.

It's still 3d. The most basic way involves a skybox, a pre-rendering of the view from the 6 sides of inside a cube.

To do it in C2 you'll need a way to draw the inside of a textured cube, or more simply a way to draw a texture onto a polygon with perspective. A third party 3d plugin like q3d probably could do it. Outside of that it will be complicated.

There are degrees of 3d...some are more fake than others. It depends on the level of fake 3d that you are comfortable with and whether construct can do that.

It shouldn't be too hard to get the desired effect using Q3D.

q3d+ 3d renderings of your landscapes in frames and then load the frames when the user click somewhere, when the player reach some important places the 360° effect is loaded, it can be done with Q3D, cubic map or spherical.

that effects in that time was called Quicktimevr
