Okay, I will look into that, Thanks 255.

Adding a little more to the discussion:

Clothing:

After looking at my stage level, I am wondering how I would go about changing the clothes of the character and still have them animate.

The idea I have is to not change the entire character, but just export the character body and the character's clothes as two separate meshes and then parent them. The clothing mesh would still be animated at the same pace as the character.

Another way I am thinking of doing it is by animating an alpha material. I have noticed that in the mesh file, there is an opacity value for each material. I wonder if this could be animated in Lua. It seems it would have to be done in C++ on the engine level.

I would surely like to check out that tutorial. I will do one myself. Getting ready to upload this Car level right now.

Wow, so you are currently able to use depth of field in your games? Is it real-time?

Okay guys, I almost have the Car Level finished, just want to place a character in the passenger seat and maybe some background music. Perhaps a voice over? we will see.

I also figured out how to toggle. I just use booleans with a table.

An isSoundOver() function would be useful to me right now, hehe. Also, just more sound functions in general (lua side). Or even being able to adjust the pitch of the sound or all the other parameters that are in the editor through script. This really goes for all editor parameters really.

I have been trying to create a script that lets me toggle through characters. I know I have to use a table, but I want to be able to just add any new character object to the table and be able to toggle it. I haven't been able to find out how to use for and while loops in maratis without it crashing (guess I don't understand how the onSceneUpdate function works as it relates to loops.

Well, I just dealt with origin points myself. And I think one reason it would help to know if it can be done in code is the fact that after a maratis mesh is made, there is no way to edit it otherwise (no blender importer)

I would have to have the original .blend file or something to adjust anything about it.

Yeah, I've seen that one. I like tearaway.I think now that indie developers don't need publishers to get attention on big consoles that we will see, perhaps, more innovation. Some say it would degrade the quality of games published, but those who say that more than likely think a quality game is one with fantastic graphics.

It's surely better than diminishing equilibrium tactics these companies use. aka law of diminishing marginal utility.

Yeah Zester. I mean, there are educational games, but what I expect from an educational game is not what I expect from a AAA game by some big game manufacturer (and that's a bad thing).

I was telling my brother that these games are just formula games. Sorta like American tv haha. So much content that can be in a game (and with creativity it could catch on very quickly), but I can't find any decent to play games that I wouldn't object to accept if I get a WII. haha.

Then again, I don't play games much, accept board games and card games.

I think it is the American market that is messed up though, because when you look at those Japanese game shows they are always playing these strange looking, fun looking games. haha. I'm like, ''Now see! That is what I want to play!"

You know the one with the office clerk riding high-speed in an office chair down the street dodging traffic? haha

I think MediaMolecule are the most innovative game designers (Little Big Planet). I like their games.
