Help me with my game - 2D (3D models topdown) - Page 10

Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world

Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Aright PAPA, i'd be happy to help, but you gotta post something, or send me somthing so i can see how to help you. Also heres a few things i'm curious about. Aren't you going to use that explosion i made frame by frame?? Kinda waste if not, the other thing is do you want me to resize all the sprites, now that i see how big they are in game? Also, about the 1 pixel high laser, hehe it needs to be tweaked in a few ways = )

Haven't gotten any inspiration for the style of pickups, maybe i should go play some space shooters....

Do you guys know how to do something like this or is it really hard?
I tried making an explosion in Maya, using a particle emmitter, and, well, it didn't turn out too well... I got close, but no cigar.

Yeah for sure, I can't wait till this so called "school" is all over :bgreen: getting close now, began my trail exams this week and they'll be over by the end of next week.

After that... 8 weeks, then the real exams, then thats it!
