Sprites and Stairs

[Jungle Jim]

Hello name is Jungle Jim, AKA Mitchel,and i have tried the Sprites making procedure to the letter and got nothing. I dont know what I am doing wrong. And I also was wondering if i can make the avatar run faster up the stairs. I have tried making all sorts of stairs and nothing seems to work. Thank you.

The stairs:
If you mean the same effect that happens in most Fan-Ages when you jump into walls that "sends you" back...
This is a PyPRP bug that was unfortunately never fixed. The avatar can't use the default physics properties (elasticity and friction).

I don't know anything about sprites, but I've heard that stairs work better if you make a custom collider from a plane like



This is a side view with the stairs and the collider(the green thing). The idea is that you create a ramp like collider as close to the stairs as possible. So you don't actually walk on the stairs. here at the bottom of the page are the settings for the collider.

As for your sprites, it would be useful if you gave somewhat more information, what is going wrong? Do you get any error messages in the console ? etc.etc.

Hope this helps you.

Actually that fix was implemented in the latest development version of PyPRP 1.6.

A ramp is the preferred method regardless which PyPRP version you use. The fix just makes it somewhat easier for the avatar to climb it.

Thank you for the stairs info, The sprites will not render in the game. Do i have to wright a script for them? Thank you
I am using blender 249b and PyPRP 1.6.
