Project Geppetto Feedback

Welcome, this is the public Project Geppeto Feedback forum. This is a forum for all of your ideas for improving Project Geppetto – no matter what industry you’re coming from. You have 10 votes, use them wisely.

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

  3. Global behaviour: Ground (Ice,Shakey,Snow,Sand,...) Weather (Rain,Snow,Temperature,Wind)

    Example1: I want to set up a winter stage. There are people sliding, slipping, falling. The crowd search for ways to avoid this.
    Example2: Earthquake; People getting away from buildings, panic, falling, cant walk straight
    Example3: Rain; Crowd searching for dry places (Those would be great to set up uneffected places with layer/masks/ramps)
    Wind: People searching for buildings against the wind direction
    Example4: Temperature control (Hot: People are slow [search for shadow/places to sit down...])

    There are many possibilities those parameter would be a nice to have.

    When I delete the area object, the people remain and they can't be deleted in any way.

  8. Manual override

    I think it would be a nice feature to have the option to be able to take control over a single actor, turn it into a manual biped so to speak.

    A quick way to accomplish this might be to have a convert-to-normal-biped button which would create a normal biped from a Geppetto actor, with all its animations transferred.
