You can't zip secure a lua game? ...I have some bought assets and only have the lua version so that is annoying.

 

Nice video though..thanks for showing.

 

I have been having some issues getting models to show up properly in LE3 ...I fixed it last night after Josh confirmed that I was doing it properly..

 

Still Character models with animation are showing up wrong ...all black or pink and insanely huge..

[Roland]

Really nice video Rick. Looking forward to see what's coming next

[Rick]

Thanks guys. My wife has a new work schedule which means she has to leave the house at 5:30 AM with the kids so since I'm up early to help I figured I'll make a 30 min(ish) video each day/every other day, after they leave. Since I'm up early I should be productive right

Nice vids, Rick! Yesterday, i was watching the fourth session and noticed that the vid resolution was quite low, but i see that it has been fixed now.

[Rick]

Yeah, I think Youtube takes some time to get the higher resolutions or something because I didn't do anything different on my end. Glad you like them.

Nice vids, Rick! Yesterday, i was watching the fourth session and noticed that the vid resolution was quite low, but i see that it has been fixed now.

 

Takes youtube a while to make the videos HD ...sometimes longer than others.

 

Thanks again Rick for making these videos ...very helpful.

The disappearing walls turned out really great. I did not realize how cool those would be.

Good stuff Rick! I really like how you are setting up the sequences and I love that overhead play-style.
