A ghost

by CodingChris · in Torque Game Engine · 02/05/2007 (9:19 am) · 5 replies

Hi,
is it possible to record ghosts like in Motocross Madness? Something like I drove a lap and next time I drove this lap there is a ghost who drove my recorded lap.

I would start with checking out the demo recording code. Over my head, alas, but it seems logical.

No, I would maybe have the player leave nodes or something for a "ghost" to follow

How to do this? first get position of the player, but now how to make a new path with the nodes? and then how to save this?

The demo recorder is close I think, because this demo recorder doesn't make a movie file its replaying model positions and situation that it kept track of somewhere. So i think modifying the recoding mode would be a great place to start. If i had time I would do it for you I don't think it would be that hard, do you have the rest of the game written, i might in this case of a hard working dedicated individual be temped to help them in their plight:)
