Creating a face

Games
#1

Hi,

I’m new to this corona SDK, heard a lot about it and I thought I’d give it a try.

I am having trouble trying to create a 3D face. I want the face to start facing the screen and turn left and right.

I achieved this on iPhone with OBJ-C a while ago by creating a 3D model of a face in 3DS Max, exporting the coordinates and using OpenGL on the iPhone to create the face.

My question is, how would I achieve this using Corona SDK? I could not find a 3D API, or the ability to import a file from a modelling program like 3DS Max.

thanks

Corona Sdk is purely 2D sdk, there’s no 3D support of any way and there probably will not be in near future [import]uid: 16142 topic_id: 19577 reply_id: 75612[/import]

You may look at a sprite/movieclip to make it look 3D - but as darkconsoles said Corona is strictly 2D. (For 3D you may want to look into Unity.)

thanks for your replies.

I do want to achieve this using corona sdk, so I’ll look into sprites. Shouldn’t need too many though since all the face will be doing is turning left and right.

In sample code folder in CoronaSDK folder on your computer, there is a sample movie clip that shows a square spinning that looks 3D - might be a good starting point.
