those aren't actually 3d boxes, they're made of distort maps, as are the shadows, i think you should get the same "static effect" with 3d boxes as long as you placed them on the z axis cleverly enough and rotated them.

what exactly do you mean by depth effect?

Something like this:

(The shadows and floor have been painted on)

the fade behavior he's using has a 'destroy on fadeout' attribute

Yes, just spotted that !Enable 'destroy afterwards' and it runs fine.

Through the clouds

A demo showing how easy it can be to create a flying through clouds effect.

Nice example!

I think you need to an an event to limit (destroy) the amount of cloud sprites that are on screen?

If you let it run, the frame rate drops rapidly.

Looks good though.

On a grid of 3d boxes.

For each ordered by 3dbox y set z to loopindex*n.

Also doable on sprite.

Unless you mean something else.

Thanks Newt, (i was going to try this next....)

Dravenx -

I am able to replicate the above using the z depth setting (hope thats what your using ?).

I want to create a similar depth effect as shown in 'QuaziGNRLnose's example'.

hi everybody, i just downloaded and had some fun with this construct 2 alpha and i'm very excited of its potential. just a couple of questions:

1 - is it normal that in the sprites, transparecy isn't supported?

Question1, Change the default image editor.........see this post -

Man that looks great!!.I will see if i can come up with something.Maybe an animated skybox texture mesh?.Which could be distorted in a dome type shape?.

Yeh, would love to see an example of that. Have you got any examples showing how to place 3d boxes or objects along the z axis to create depth? Not seen any examples on the forums yet.

A very basic puzzle example using 3d boxes.

If i could work out how to place 3d objects\boxes along the Z axis to create the correct depth, it would be a doddle? Im stuck on this part though, anyone got a solution?
