It’s stil work in progres so expect bugs and missing futures.

Please feel free to report bugs, suggest improvements and ideas here!

Appreciate if you can write how to use. I opened it and could not find a way to put some screen/image or whatever in the design canvas.

You should be able to have a scene category there you can add screens (scènes called in three.js)
Also Images are handeled through URLS.

Also the 3D model/map section is cooming soon but need to tackle some bugs first.

@muneer did you find it out?
Or do i have to make things more clear in the design?

I wasn’t successful in making something useful. I think I need an idiot guide :joy::joy::joy:

:joy::joy:
My apologies for My unclear explaining or spelling.
I’ll Just call my teacher to make a beter explanation :joy:

Anyways


Scroll down in the toolbox ti’ll you see the scene category.
There you Will find everything for scènes (currently only posibility for design)

Before creating a scene each block must be placed in a parent block function or event blocks.

To create a scene add a When page loaded block found in the events category.


Then add a create New scene with name block found in the scene category.
And a switch to scene block change Both default text to something diffrent else it Will break the code.
Then Use the set scene color/background image from URL block to change the scene background.
More Will be added later.

Result When pressing play/test icon


(Image not optimised for phones)

Hope that helps a bit.

Thank you. Actually I did all that but instead of the image I used repeat 10 times and inside it I added a wait block and inside it set background to random colours.

The only step I didn’t do is switch to scene.

NOTE:
Your explanation is clear enough, you don’t need to call your teacher.

That is nessecary to add else the program doesn’t know What scene to show.

Like @codeswept said it is in bèta.
I am aiming to create a low-code tool to create 3D games.

The reason i shared a link to my project is Because i found a few bugs and after fixing Them i was’t sure if i was the only one having no bugs that’s why i released a beta version.

And of course to get feedback from users on the UI and everything else.

Hi all!
I have updated the block editor and its now able to create a few objects and edit some camera properties.

How to do this you may ask?

Simple do the following blocks inside of a create new screen with name block.

NOTE:
doing this without a set camera position block will cause the objects to be not shown since it basicly spawns inside of it.

SECOND NOTE: 3D possibility will be added later after the camera properties are all there.

THIRD NOTE: not all meshes/geomtery types work.

Thank You All
