To make 3D projects for yourself, see the 3D framework tutorial: http://scratch.mit.edu/studios/202972 ******************************************************* Use the mouse to rotate, click to select (or space to select next). Just something I threw together after I came across the help request of original project, while looking for 3D others were doing. Seemed like it would make a nice little demo. :) See many comments inside to help understand how it works.
Put this into the 3D studio because it contains some elements of the 3D coding in a simple form that might be easier to follow - for example: projection to 2D, 3D point rotation, crude ordering, rotation using mouse. Plus, it has simple examples of other effects that might be of interest to some (e.g. motion blur, using clones for different tasks). Things I changed from original... - fixed the rotation problem (i.e. per original request); - put it all into one sprite, so it's easier to use elsewhere; - used clones (and lists) to avoid having lots of sprites; - added text to costumes, so you can put names against dots; - size & brightness changes, for extra sense of depth; - quick & crude ordering, so nearer names usually drawn on top; - added selection (click on dot/name, or switch with space); - motion blur (by stamping black costume rather than using clear). Hope it helps!
