Title: How to make Swimmable Water Spheres -Tutorial with pictures-
Post by: DimensionGal on May 22, 2011, 06:24:50 pm
I don't know if this is exactly the right place for this, (or if there's another one like it, since I'm too lazy to look), but I get asked how to make these a lot. It's easy enough to figure out your own, and a lot of people already know how, but this is for the people who are intimidated by Object Maker.

-How To Make Swimmable Water Spheres-

1. Go into Object Maker, go to Mesh tab.

2. In the mesh typebox, type "basicsphere.mesh" and hit Return/Enter or "Add New".
(http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc406/LilyMururi/FH%20STUFF/watertut2.png)
^ DO NOT hit the "Has Own Collision" ^
(http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc406/LilyMururi/FH%20STUFF/watertut3.png)

You'll have something that looks like this now:

3. In the material typebox underneath that, type "WaterMat" exactly like that. Now your sphere will look like water.
Change this:

To this:

4. Go to Collision tab. Select Water Sphere, click add.
So go here:
(http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc406/LilyMururi/FH%20STUFF/watertut7.png)
Click this:
(http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc406/LilyMururi/FH%20STUFF/watertut8.png)
And then this:
(http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc406/LilyMururi/FH%20STUFF/watertut3.png)

Make sure it's the same size as the other Sphere you made. So, since we didn't change the other sphere's size, it's this:
(http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc406/LilyMururi/FH%20STUFF/watertut9.png)

5. And you have a swimmable water sphere~!

Make sure to save it~!

Yeah, I can't figure out normal water planes very well, lol.

I was able to make a mountain of water with this tutorial, albeit with funky collision, but it works well anyways. Again, a million thanks! I'm going to have fun making weird stuff like swimmable trees...
