GAME MAKER: STUDIO 3D - RESIDENTIAL MAP TEST 

I think this just goes to show the power that GM:S is capable of, especially with the right skill set. It's just a shame how much more difficult it is to create something of equal results with Unity in GM:S.

Game Maker is actually an extremely powerful engine but get's a bad rap because of the simplified programming language and how much asset flip crap get's made with either pirated copies or the free versions of the pre-studio versions

Heh heh.

Graphics isnt matter what matter is how much you love making games and telling stories.

Jone Dylan graphics matter if you have a good game that you think it needs it or not, and to me, i love graphics, but i cant make them

@@dj420j2 graphics doesn't matter look at fall guys and fortnite and pubg and among us they don't have that great graphics

oh hey jfun what are you doing here.

Nothing

I see you on a lot of videos too but I don't reply tbh :P

jfun300 lol me neither.

Using GM (what the engine in the video is using), skeletal animations/animations and general aren't natively supported unfortunately. There are work-around's and tricks you can do to implement animations, but nothing ideal. If you really want to get right into decently looking 3D fast, I'd probably recommend something like Unity, as it supports pretty much all aspects of 3D you'd really need.

You should get UE4 for something like that. Don't waste your time trying to do 3d with Game Maker. Sure, this is impressive, but this is as far as you'll go with this.

+Rune Knytling I have worked with game maker for a long time i would recommend ue4, the skills you will learn can be used in more platforms later on and with better resource management.

What? You must be blind or something. There are everywhere low poly models, textures looks blurry and they has no basic stuff like spec map and bump map. It still needs improvements.

TheExtremeGamer ! unmm i dont think youve ever seen something made in unreal

still nothing compared to unreal engine 4

because it's unreal it doesn't mean it is super graphics, you can make the same thing with game maker too. unreal is for lazy people. game maker is like a package with software to help programming. regards.

Julio Cesar Acevedo I agree it does look like made in unreal engine 4

you make the model, export it, then you have to convert it with a special program actually made in game maker

Jared, Michael, and I have been working together on games for over three years now ;) It just takes time and dedication to create good-looking content in Game Maker, stick with it!

orange451 or just make the game in unity if it is 3d :/

It think it's Blender, because I think the only way to make models for Game Maker is through that.

+Alex Kunesh Blender wasn't used. We used a program created with GM called Model Creator to make the models. I have a timelapse of me making a model with it on my channel, if you're interested.

LinkMasterM7 I use the pro version. The main difference is just the extent of extra features and functions you can utilize. Like, with the lite edition, you can't do any 3D. Then there are things like extended draw calls, etc., (which are very useful) which you also can not use. And, I'm not sure if it's still this way or not, but I'm pretty sure the lite edition had the GM/YYG logo plastered onto your game.. which I'm not sure if you'd want. If you are seriously considering using GM, I would recommend buying one of the advanced packages. They go on sales quite often, also.

He should answer this question!

+Alex Kunesh We used shaders to generate the shadow maps and then interpolated them at various transparencies and offsets to create a "smooth" fading effect.

+Jared sounds like a hard piece of code. This graphik looks amazing for Game Maker Studio!

Jared very inspiring!

no his just use game maker

improfision plz tell me your joking right? I'm not hating I'm just saying that if you spent that much time in an engine why not use that talent on a better/ more powerful one. Seriously though I didn't just mean unity3d, I also meant other engines like UDK or Cry engine. BTW don't tell me that you could recreate "The Forest" in Gamemaker :3.

They are loaded externally and were made by me in a GM-based programmed called Model Creator.

I found the program and a tut for it. Thanks! I see you use Shaders too! Nice.

If you use a bunch of d3d_ objects your game will inevitably lag a ton because its actually very inefficient. Every individual d3d_draw_... function adds overhead to the GPU. These are called draw calls, and it's not necessarily the total number of polygons that is the performance bottleneck, but rather the number of draw calls. This demo only has two draw calls for the entire level, one for the environment and one for the foliage, because the entire map is baked into only two models. This is how you can do stuff like this in GM

@@machimanta i dont understand It. U say u only do 2 calls, but the plants are moving. Models cant move. Each plant has to be a separate model so you can make the wind move It. Arent they tons of d3d-model-draw? Thanks for the response!!

Raziel Lewach Models can move using vertex shaders

@@machimanta Hoooooly sh... that's another crazy level! My mental sanity won't handle that xDDD Also I don't know if I can use the "shaders to move models" to animate characters (arms, legs)... sounds crazy and too much at this moment QAQ I still don't understand it. "What consumes is the number of draw calls, not the number of vertexes practically". This seems to match with what I've been watching. But yesterday I did a test. I drawed 1000 models (simple models) and they only consumed 20 fps, and drawing my character that doesn't have more than... 100 draw_primitives, consumes like 60 fps. Maybe it's not only the number of draw calls but another thing? Thanks for the responses ;_;

@@LegendarySSSparda If you are drawing 1000 of the same model, GPUs are pretty smart these days and can recognize that and internally batch them into a single model, more-or-less. Also important to note that these are generalizations, not strict rules. There are more factors that can come into play depending on the complexity of your scene/application. Edit: Also you probably wouldn't use vertex shaders to animate a character anyway. Vertex shaders are better for animating simple things like grass sway and stuff like that

+R Endras :3

programming is megic powers

Arissa Sissy Hi

Dark Amulet​ hi

Arissa Sissy How are you?

Dark Amulet​ not so good...

Why?

Lol, I just love how the grass looks! xD! It's probs a tad too tall in this video, but that's not something which can't be fixed. Right now, this is just a side project, but I'm having a pretty fun time making maps, lol.

Aleksandr Q of fucking course you idiot

+The Green Developer Peoples don't like aggressive comments. Thanks!

Sam321x [Labbo.us] lol 220000000000000000 lines of code I bet.

You too clearly don't know anything about coding. It's not the quantity of the codes. I am not an expert on 3D but I'll explain since I know GM for almost 2 years now: 1. 3D models: Use an EXTERNAL 3D editor and just export that and import to GM. I think the model movement is the difficult part. 2. Everything else with 3D (shadows, lighting etc.) is done by code but since it's just repeating for every model it's written juat once - in a script. This is my opinion and my belief so no hate.

It's gamemaker studio
