Maybe should exist an actuator for this, with option to animate the texture on X, Y or Z coordinates and other to change it (using another image file).

Maybe they could have the option of using an image as BumpMap and not having to use a script.

You can type commands like;
* fps
* noclip
* fly
* suicide
* quit
* exit
* brightness [value]
* contrast [value]
* gamma [value]
* fov [value]
* version
* status
* pause
* clear
* echo [value]
* restart
* screenshot
* set sv_gravity 35
etc

The appearance in the 3d window would be like a simplified subsurf, you would be able to see all the extra triangle lines but in a different color.

If you wanted one of the modifier generated triangles to be real and editable, all you would need to do is select the 2 vertices and press F just like normal.

Bonus feature could be: maybe you don't have to apply to make it work in the game engine?


Discuss!

Then you can see how the physics are being calculated on the selected objects only. It gets impossible to see after you have more than 5 objects on top of each other.

Not sure how hard it would be to implement.

It would help me bunches if there was, like proposed in the other idea about this, a shift + d highlight kind of thing, allowing easy placement and changing of logic bricks, without loss of logic bricks.

Fonts, Shapes, alpha, gradients, etc.....

Why not have a function that loads an object from a file _while the game is running?_ Maybe my character gets close to a place where I want a troll to stand. Instead of having to pack the troll into the original game file, I just have an Empty there, and when the character gets close, the Empty loads the troll from an external .blend file! The alternative is to either pack every object into the game (bad for big games) or to have the Empty load a whole new game that the troll is part of (a big mess).

If the game could load objects etc. from external files while running, games would not only be able to be much larger (infinite, basically), you cuold also alter or upgrade a game by dropping new versions of these external files into it, instead of having to makle a whole new game!

example:
you have a property sensor that fires only when the "property" is equal to 2.
you want a property sensor that fires only when the "property" is equal to 3.

with current means you would have to click on the "Add" button in the Sensors column. Select property from the drop-down menu and select "property". then you would have to select "equal" form a drop-down menu. then after that entering the name of the property and the number you would be finished

Or--->with coping and pasting logic bricks you could copy the first sensor; rename it, and change the number it would be equal to.

which is easier? -well learning python would be easier....
besides that it would prove to be a great time saver,when creating similar logic bricks.

This would enable lots of cool things including ragdolls and armatures that can actually "walk" based off of their animations.

Right now the best workarounds involve a)separating all the bones and using rigid-body constraints to connect them or b)creating a ragdoll out of rigid body objects and then constraining the armature to copy the location of the ragdoll objects. Both of these are extremely tedious (although they could potentially be done with a python script), and the latter doesn't actually work in the game-engine (although you can use it to create animations).

Yes yes, I know linear mip mapping is fast on slow ancient computers, but ani-stropic filtering where you can set the amount of samples would make graphics look a lot better. It could even be applied to the blender viewports!

Anyway.. just putting the idea out there.

there are a lots examples, here some of them:
awakening (www.awingsoft.com)
Unity3D (www.unity3d.com)
Quest3D (www.quest3d.com)
Virtools (www.virtools.com)

I haven't found any way to duplicate the sensors, controllers, and actuators. so hopefully I'm not missing out on that functionality.

And let's say the bluring of textures starts at about 100 blender units from the camera(this is the default start of bluring implemented in the game engine). And now, by using the slider, in this case, the bluring is 50% of the camera clipping end away from the Active camera, and I want to Remove the bluring by adjusting the distance from where the bluring starts to 100% of the camera clipping end, so the bluring will start at the end=no blur. For now, this feature could be used on all objects in view, with no object exceptions. This would make the BGE TO REALY ROCK!!! Thank you for your understanding.
