Beyond Blender Render/Open Up Blender And Don't Be Discouraged

Ever Commandeered A Rocket Ship?
It's well known that Blender's GUI looks like a rocket ships controls. Don't be discouraged. Let's get started.

Here's what Blender generally looks like.



Start The Logic
Delete all the objects in the 3D view and then add a plane and a cube. In the bottom panel of the Blender window open the "Logic Editor". The Logic Editor looks like this:



What you see here is the logic. Logic is sort of the BGE programming language. Each object has a logic window. When you select an object it will display the logic for the object.

Please select the cube. Move it up a bit so it's a bit above the plane. The cube will be our character and the plane will be our ground.

Please scale the plane so it's a bit larger then the cube.

So let's start the Logic. Go to the next tutorial to learn how to use basic logic and what physics is for.
