The manual gives you all this information you might not be reading it in the correct manner: Make sure you are on the contents tab -> Click engine objects -> expand VIEW - This is all of it.


I meant the manual on the internet ,not the one combined with GS. I have some problems with that of GS so I will re-download GS. I thought they were the same. My mistake.

The work required to do this is insane. You would have to build the buildings already fractured then combine them. Then maybe turn them all into physics entities and let gravity and a force work on them. @The_KING re-measure your ambition.


I measured my ambition very well. I meant an earthquake like the one in Half Life (shaking camera and making it follow the player at the same time + some window glass pieces,...etc. falling to the ground)

You can simple call level_load() and reload the level. Or call ent_create() and recreate the player model with player action. For the second one you need to make sure you ent_remove the old player and wait before moving the camera center entity actually you should move the camera to the new player before removing the old. Finally just reset the state of the current player action. It really depends on how you set up you code and how you Want to restart the player.


hmmmmm, ok

Yeah me too and I don't think I understand how to look for anything so I need you to do the looking and post me links. Ok? Lol!
Last time I tried to make some simple shader effects I started HERE and didn't get to far. But this forum has a shader section and I bet reading most the post from the last year would give you some help also. Have you been HERE_SHADERS? or HERE_FOR_ALL_HELP? or HERE? or HERE_MY_FIRST_STOP_FOR_HELP?

thnx

All joking and hard knocks aside - Is the engines information so scattered that beginners are stuck like this? The learning curve is high enough with the right materials.


@Malice
I am not that guy you are talking about who doesn't know what to do and always needs help. I am not "STUCK". I just want ,like any beginner, to improve my skills in game developement by the help of the experienced programmers to reach SOME goals.
If you don't like my questions, you don't have to answer them
