Unlock Character In Bb3

I want to have multiple characters in a coin shop which can be unlocked via in-game currency. I know you were able to do this in BB2. If anyone has any idea on how to do this help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

@Sean Buildbox @NikRudenko Do you know how to do this?

 

@Carter Check out this thread https://www.buildbox.com/forum/index.php?threads/bb3-character-system.17779/

 

Thanks for the response but I actually tried this before posting and I couldn’t get it to work.

 

Hi,If your game character is a single 3d image then its possible to make it work using the above link.

 

@Skyhub Games Character System works very well. It works with 3D models also.

2 tutorial videos, how you can use it:

And:

 

Hi,Lets say there is a game character designed by individual parts like head,body,hands and legs etc.They are single 3d objects linked at start node of the character.
How can i choose second character that replaces first one?

 

Would it be possible to unlock with in-app purchase?

 

You connect 3D models with Selector node, instead of Start node.
So, if first character is selected, you connect all character 1 3D models with first Selector output. And so on.
And you have to set default value to character 1, in Selector node. It is in second video.

 

I will have give it a try thanks for the help @Hanomax & @TheGameAppStudio

 

Tried this and after several tries it worked.But when i change the default points to another it doesn't work.Also how to set it for coins?
I tried changing TotalPoints and decreaseTotalPoints to TotalCoins and decreaseTotalCoins still it doesn't work.Any suggestion?

 

Try decreaseCoins(price).

 

This didn't help .I came across this thread https://www.buildbox.com/forum/index.php?threads/buildbox-3-api-documentation.17947/
Changing this line var money = this.scene().totalPoints() to var money = this.scene().totalGlobalCoins() helped.

 

@Hanomax One more doubt , is it possible to show 3d character in character selection menu instead of 2d ? and it changes instantly on click.

 

Hi @Hanomax, is there a cancel/confirm option, so someone doesn't buy each character when they tap on it?

Something where they could tap to select, then confirm the purchase? Or tap cancel and not have their in-game currency deducted?

 

hello anyone knows how to use shopping system to buy locked 3d platformers characters using coins
