Utils Templates

These templates were created to help UPBGE users to create games or any kind of interactive things. Easy to use, easy to attach to your project.

To use, just select it from template label at script editor and you’re done! You can use this template in your projects, even for commercial projects. You only need to give credits to Guilherme Teres Nunes (UnidayStudio) for this. It’s very easy to use: Just load this script into your .blend file through template label (or paste it in the same folder that your .blend is), select the object that you want, and attach the script into the object’s components using Register Component button.

Sound Speaker Component

This component will serve as an sound Speaker for your game. With this, you can easly control 3D sound, volume. Unfortunatelly, the sounds needs to be mono to make the 3D sound works. You can convert your sound to mono using windows CMD like this: ‘> ffmpeg -i Sound.wav -ac 1 SoundMono.wav’ It’s very simple to configure:
