Platinum Arts Sandbox - Free 3D Game Maker Forum

here's my questions:
1)how is it that you export thing made in blender into sandbox... i followed "Daniel_San"'s "Blender to sandbox:step by step" tutorial but when i tried to exicute the script i kept have an error message pop up, i asked him but have yet to recive a reply so if someone could help me or pehaps point me the direction of a btter tutorial it would be greatly appriciated.
2)how can you animate, pick up objects, use a wepon, or breack objects in sandbox? i have read that you must use codeing but it never gose any farther than that.
3) is there any way you can make map have grass on it everywhere but under water, without putting in one grass modle at a time?

that's all the questions i have right now... there was somthing else but i can't rember what it was... if i think of it i'll put it up to. but if you can help me with any of my questions i would be very greatfull.

For your 3rd question, you can select your whole ground under-water and hold down y-scroll to scroll through all the textures until you get to grass. Make sure you have 3d grass turned on buy typing /grass1 in the console. Hope that answers your 3rd question.

okay thank you very much.

1) What version of Blender are you using? Do you have Python installed?

2) You can pick up models by giving them a trigger type (use F3 after selecting the model) of 12, this animates the model (if there's an animation), then makes it disappear. There's a bit more to interacting with things in RPG mode, I suggest you give that a try if you haven't yet. As for weapons, you should look at Sauerbraten, which is like the FPS-specialized version of Sandbox.

3) See what HYTuts said, you can use F2 to go to the textures menu as well.

1) blender-2.57b-windows64. and pythoon came with it, so yes.
2) um okay i tried it on the pink... uh... cat? and a couple other things ike the fish and it didn't seem to do anything and then, like you said they disapered, this was in fps mode, do those just not have anything animation? and why do they disapear?
3) already did, and it worked.

- thank you for helping me out!

1) you're using the wrong version for md3 export, Dan's tut uses 2.49. I haven't found an md3 export script for 2.5x, so you're going to have to use that.
2) I don't know why they disappear, it's just the way Sandbox was set up, I guess... the fish and the robochimp (the pink RC) have idle animations, which means that they do things when they don't have a trigger type set. They may not have triggered animations. Try a door or something. If you've played the village map, apples are picked up.
3) Okay.

1)well *censored*!! do you happen to have a link for that version i could use?
2) okay.

okay thanks so uch i really apriciate all the help! if any of you are ever in need of a technology retard with a writter's skill then let me know!
