1) should the billboard follow the character? (set to children and parent)
2) At the start of the game, the particle emitter will move the billboards slowly to the scene. Is there any way to set the particle effect to move to the scene first?

My artist is major in Maya. She didn't really know how to use the rest of tools. 3D model tools is really hard to learn in the first place. (Steep learning curve)

We wanted to do keyframe modeling in maya and export it out using vertex animation technique. Right now we only can export OBJ file ...

yup the snow, i try and it work well (not visually good thought)

I am trying to make blizzard effect. Since i am not in a country that have snow, i wonder how do i make a visually nice blizzard with foggy effect

I was given suggestion to use billboard blending.

But i dunno where to start. Any ...

Good day everyone. I need to make effect on my environment.

I didn't have any idea. So i am here to ask inspiration.



Do you think billboards alone + particle emitter (with a bit of tuning) could make such effect?

ARRR exactly!!! Thank you so much Mr Acki

Ok, now i got another question.

I already knew how to do mouse picking (turning 2D coordinate to 3D coordinate)

Now, i was wondering how do i translate 3D coordinate to 2D coordinate (based on camera)

any idea? (sound like a inverse raycast)

Thank guys, I manage to solve it after reading a few post before this.

Search function don't always work, especially when you don't know what key term to find.

Great community guys! Go on!

I am doing a mini game whereby player click on the screen to shoot some object down.

It is a 3D game. So when an object pop out, the game will draw a billboard to ask the player to click on it. When player click on that object, the object will fall down. The camera is static, and fix in one side ...
