Top down action!!!

[poorjack]

Hey creators and createsses, I have come to you today humbled... And humiliated... With one simple favor to ask. Kill Peter Parker... No, seriously though guys, top down action adventure. I really REALLY need help figuring out how to create a realistic sackboy looking avatar WITHOUT using the DCS or controllinator as you kids call it. It looks stupid from up top, sackboy sitting there in a box. How do I go about creating a CONVINCING top down effect then? I have no problem with the camera angles, just with the sackboy/avatar looking good.

P.S. I will play your levels and review in exchange for good advice on solving this problem. Think Mm quality.

There is no way to make the actual sackbot or sackboy flip over into a top-down view without sitting in the controllinator. All I can recommend is taking pictures of sackboys head (The top) and pasting it on a circle. And with little nubs flying in and out when he walks. (Legs)

Yeah, I have tried that to very dissatisfying results. See, the game is going to be largely in a sidescrolling mode similar to how LOZ 2 was. but the over world I want top down. Its stupid that the controllinator cant be set up to be invisible without sackboy disappearing too...
