just wondering if it is possible to change a 3d object to a 2d one like the piranna plant or spinys or even marios model

nice how do i do that ?

But it will still be a 3D model.
There's no way to make 3D sprite like the piranha plants or the spinies use 2D graphics like the goombas and koopas.

You have to create a plane, or a flat face, then texture it.

but that's not what he wants!!!.
He wants it to use a 2D graphics so that it can be edited with the normal graphics editor.

Making a flat 3D model is just stupid.

Not true.

Look at this:


He wants to be able to create a face or a plane and texture it now.

i dont mind i want either one as long as it looks 2d the question if it is possible to change a 3d model to a 2d one but i just want to make the object 2d either way

Do you actually want it 2d as the game sees it as a 2d object, or do you want to make it look like a 2d object using 3d?

There's a difference between it looks 2d and it is 2d.

Then good luck with that.
HINT: The results will not be what you want.

i wanted to change a 3d object to a 2d one so basically a piranna plant model runs like a goomba sprite

You can't "change" a 3d object into a 2d object. You're leaving out a dimension of space. You can't have 2d describe a 3d object.

Unless you mean you want to create a sprite animation by rendering a 3d animation. Then that's possible.

im not expecting to do it i was just wondering and if it seems easy enough i might try it. i was thinking of making SMW graphics in the rom so i just wanted to know if i could make the 3D mario model into the SMW mario sprite somehow thanks for the answers

Oh. yea you can do that. You just need to create a custom nsbmd with all your custom animations and textures and all that fun stuff. Probably not a very fun thing to do... we don't even know how to create animated textures on objects yet.

maybe in the future ill try it. thanks for the answers
