realist top down bounce for mini golf?

[jpcr]

HI All,

how would you do a realistic ball bounce for a minigolf game?

i tried the ball mouvement and it's not doing what i want.

tried pinball mouvement, better but not enough.

tried physics and have not been able to undertand it...


thanks

Top down or platform? Pinball would've been worse of a choice if it was for top down, that's what confuses me. You said better.

I believe he's trying to make a mini golf game so it's obviously top down as he said.

jpcr, spend some more time with the physics extensions. A box2d one will be coming out soon, but until then just spend more time with it. http://www.gamebuilder.info/world/content/physics-object-basic-shapes

For not so realistic movement (realistic enough for mini golf, I think), you can try the vector movement (should come with MMF). It comes with a mini golf example in \Examples\Clickteam Movement Controller.

BrandonC, yes it is definitely top down.

Pkeod : will retry Physics using your link.

Looki : i played with vector but was not convinced , maybe i misuded it.

my issue is when the ball collides with something that has an angle, say 45 degres , it does not feel like it bounces correctly.

thanks for your help.

You could make the scale increase so it appears bigger as if it were higher up.
