Linerider and ALL of it's awesome stuff
Linerider is an awesome 'toy' or flash game that allows you to create your own lines for a guy to ride on. I know what you're thinking, "BORING!" but it's really has more to it than what I just said. If you visit the site at "linerider.com" and check out the game, you'll see a screen and a list of tools on the top of the screen. If you go there you'll get it. But it's an awesome game and if you go to Youtube and type in Techdawg on the search bar, you'll see the best linerider tracks out there created by this ingenious man. Check out iridethelines.com for tips and tutorials (go to their forum) register and refer to Poke. Sorry, got a little caught off with advertising, well, it's a cool game where you can make a guy ride your lines. If you're totally new, follow this quick tutorial I made. The tools tutorial. The first tool will be the pencil tool (the tool looks like a pencil) it's mostly not used by linerider track maker since it's usually used for making small lines. This is what I call, the 'free hand' tool, it doesn't do much since it's really hard to draw with so don't use this in your tracks unless you're trying to make small lines. The second tool is where you'll be using probably the most, it's the straight line tool (it looks like a diagonal line). Although it's a straight line tool, you can still make curves with it by slowly building up lines at a time and creating a curve. Creating curves are one of the simple techniques in using linerider and will be available in tutorials at iridethelines.com. The third tool would be an eraser (it looks like an eraser) and it cleans up your mess, but beware, you cannot redo your lines (only in version Linerider 2 Unbound can you do that (coming soon to a gamestore near you). It actually takes away an entire straight line so don't expect it to erase part of the line you made unless you used the pencil tool. Next is the magnifying tool (looks like a magnify glass). This is used to magnify your track to look up closer and make smaller lines or un-magnify and make lines much bigger. Your area and space will be limited so yeah... Next is the hand tool (looks like a hand). It is used to move from one area to another so that you can procceed with making a line. If you use the magnifying to to zoom out, you'll have more area to work with, if you use the magnifying tool to zoom in, you'll be in a much small area but up closer and is what mostly everyone uses most. Next are the play button and the stop button (looks like a play button and a big square). You can basically just see how your track looks like from time to time by pressing play then stop when you're done watching. The flag button (looks like a flag) is for flagging an area you want to start at when you press the play button rather then starting at the beginning all the time when you want to start a certain point. The save and trash buttons (look like a saving button and a trashcan) are used for saving a track, so you can use later, or trashing a track you don't like. Check out iridethelines.com/forums/index.php if you need anymore help. Register and refer to 'Poke' at iridethelines.com and check out the tutorials section. Thanks! Well, that's my tutorial. Message me if you have a nice track you want to share. Check my first ever track I made, I'm a lot better now BTW. Linesensation - On Youtube |
