| Hi, has anyone here implemented falling leaves under gravity? any pointers as to how to go about doing it? thanks. |
| ||
| ..go here and download AMT LIGHTSPEED SINGLE MESH (for BLITZ3D)..and enjoy failing leaves at sample2.. http://www.amt-lab.com/index.php?page=products |

| jvc, you could easily implement this with Sprite Candy. Have an array of sprites and set them to move down the screen and use the wave fx. If you want to see what I mean grab KeePeeUppy (a freeware game) and look at the falling yellow and red cards www.boiledsweets.com/KeePeeUppy |

| Yeah and Particle Candy has a 'ground plane' which can affect falling objects, so particles, such as sparks can bounce, leaves I guess would just need to settle though. IPete2. |
| ||
| Naughty Alien, i could not run it, complains of function addentity_tm not found, any clues? Boiled Sweets, KeePeeUppy free demo links invalid... |
| ||
| jvc, fixed. Seems like I screwed the KeePeeUppy index.php when releasing something else. Thanks for letting me know |

| > Naughty Alien, i could not run it, complains of function addentity_tm not found, any clues? it uses a dll, so you have to move the files "single_mesh_amt.dll" and "single_mesh_amt.decls" to your "userlibs" folder. |

| Just the decls, the dll can stay where it is. What I loved about the leaf demo is that it has a text message saying 320 fps in the top left of the screen and it's clearly running at about 20fps cuz it's jerking terribly, and the frame time is high. So ignore the FPS, they're not true. Go by the frame time. |

| Naughty Alien, the 3D effects are good! $15 may be worth a consideration. As for KeePeeUppy, i guess sprite candy is limited to 2d, but anyway it's a beautiful game. :) Thanks all. |

| There's also this from the code archives. Its a snow effect but it could be adapted. http://www.blitzbasic.com/codearcs/codearcs.php?code=961 |
