Post by bat394 »

I have a few questions about sandbox 2.4 for the mac OSX.

1. How do you turn on grass?

2. How do you make shadows?

3. How do you put textures on hills and mountains?

4. Can you fight monsters? (Dragon.)

5. Can you pick up weapons?

6. How do you make ogres talk and make responses?

7. How do you go to RPG mode?

This is for the mac OSX! Thanks! :D :D :D

2. Creating shadows is simple. Create a light by opening the menu and clicking Editing GUI>New light entity (it should be there). Alternately, you could press F3 and choose a light from there.

Once that's done, you can either go back to F3 and "quick light" or go back to Editing GUI> go to the light section and click Calculate.

1. How do you turn on grass?

press the ~ key (above tab, under esc), and type /grass 1, type /grass 0 to turn off the grass

2. How do you make shadows?

As Arc said

3. How do you put textures on hills and mountains?

The best way to do this is to texture them before using heighfield mode to make them, otherwise you can use a bigger grid type to texture them easier (press g while in edit mode and scroll)

4. Can you fight monsters? (Dragon.)

Only in rpg mode, this requires coding, with which I can't help you :cry:

5. Can you pick up weapons?

Yes, but you need to code that too

6. How do you make ogres talk and make responses?

7. How do you go to RPG mode?

Click instead of the Click me to start.bat file, the sandbox launcher, than select RPG and your map and you're in the RPG mode

Hope this helps ;)
