Hi all,
I started to use WME for a little (very little actually) 2.5D test game, using, in first instance, the Trinity character. I designed a test scene (only a walking plane) and placed the character... the outcome was this one:



The hidden geometry files was defined using Blender 2.49b (plus the 3ds exporter export-3ds-0.82.py), and the WME is 1.9.001.
The video resolution is 1024x768 and character scale factor is 5.
As you can see the perspective is incorrect: the character is viewed down-up, but the scene would be up-down (the camera is above the floor plane and directed down).
Among the other things the character direction is not the right one as well: the scene starts with the parameter

Code: [Select]

actor.Direction = DI_DOWN;
but the outcome is this one:



I designed others 2.5D scenes also, with blocking meshes and way points defined, but the problem is the same: incorrect perspectives.
I searched the forum for a solution, without success... anyway I apologize if I missed something!

Someone can explain where are the errors?

Thanks in advance and compliments for the excellent job in developing the WME.

I have seen this problem with Blender-exported geometry before. It appears the camera is turned inside-out. I don't know if anyone was able to find some workaround though, and Blender is not my area of expertise, unfortunately

Thank you Mnemonic. I'll try in an other way...
Anyway if somebody else would have any idea or advice... I'll be happy and appreciate it!!!

Problem solved! It was a matter of sign swapping, in the Clipping planes parameters, so now everything is OK.
Actually I used a slightly modified version of the Blender-vs-WME exporter (export-3ds-0.82.py), so now it's
working in Blender 2.49b (the last stable version) without warning errors.
