Hey are there any good Torque tutorials? So far this is all that I found?

FuryFilmsEst2003 is great. Shows you how to compile Torque with xCode on the mac:

Three great videos of using a modeling app to create rendering geometry and collision geometry to load into Torque:

Project Setup Video Tutorial

I'm looking for the good stuff. Like copying the default project files to a folder. Setting up visual studio.


Mesh Creation Video Tutorial

Constructing a simple material, texture, shader. And then what it takes with torque to create a vertex based mesh, with verts, normals, and uvs. And then apply the material to the mesh with a shader and linking the texture. Possibly an intro on how Torque handles shader parameters and material syntax.


Mesh Collision Video Tutorial

An extension tutorial that shows how to set the collision flags on the mesh. Whether the collision boundary can use the existing mesh, or how you add a second set of collision geometry. And an intro on collision callback events.

And a few videos that were added further down in the thread

Road Editor Walkthrough

Thank you, Lara.

I hadn't actually considered reversing one of the wave/ripple layers on a waterblock/plane so that it appears to be an enclosed and non-directional pond/lake.

Now that's a nice Pro-tip.

Not done with the series yet, but so far, great quality tutorials. Thanks, Lara. Very fast, yet clear, and it really showed off some of the jaw-dropping features I wasn't aware T3D has (like how everything seems to be dynamic, I love it)!

Any chance there will be tutorial showing how to do interiors? I have models of wall segments, floor segments, objects, etc and would just like to figure out how to construct the a room. I don't want to pre fabricate a giant room model, because I want to keep some things destroyable. I approached the models it like they approached it with Amnesia's level editor:

I realize it won't be that easy, but surely there is a way to take make a long string of wall models without terrible seams? Grid/object snapping tutorial would be great as well, because it's function seems sporadic at best, so I'm assuming I'm doing it wrong.

Are any new video tutorials being released with version 1.2 of T3D?

We don't have any video tutorials planned for 1.2 currently. We may do some in the future, but nothing planned right now.
