5 Awesome Godot Addons That You Should Give a Try

[@hex1]

I see people saying they never knew about these addons while i'm sitting here just discovering that Godot has addons

[@GameEndeavor]

This level editing tool looks amazing! I will absolutely keep this in mind when I do some 3D work. This is one of the things I wanted most when working in Godot 3D previously.

[@LucyLavend]

Yep it's really neat! I've used it in pretty much every 3d Godot project I've worked on so far

[@TackerTacker]

Yeah! I knew about Qodot for a while but I somehow never thought about the implication that you can use all the great level editing tools created for Quake. Very useful

[@wizardhorse6084]

Could you make a tutorial on qodot and trenchbroom or at least recommend some tutorials for tench.

[@LucyLavend]

@Wizard Horse I'm working on a Qodot + Trenchbroom tutorial 😄

[@actualFix]

Hey, I'm not Shifty, but I'll thank you for shouting out Qodot! So, a small note about Qodot: it's somewhat recommended to use Qodot-Next, a successor written in Rust. It might be a bit buggy at this time, but it already features a better workflow (Uses godot paths, instead of absolute paths, improved FGD definitions, etc.) Note, for anyone curious like I was: you can set your workflow to be independent of the Godot editor - just trenchbroom, and you load up and build the map at runtime. Also, this is the first time that Dialogic looked good. Every time before I've seen it, it seemed very limited, as if someone just ported Ren'Py into Godot, and not useful aside from that. But someone finally showcased that It CAN be used in tandem with something else. All in all, all of these seem like very useful tools, and thank you for showcasing them ^_^

I was looking for a long time for an efficient way to create a dialogue system in Godot for a school project. I just realized the existence of addons and Dialogic is perfect for me, thank you very much for the recommendation!

[@LucyLavend]

That's really cool, I'm glad to hear that my video was useful. Good luck with your project!

[@maximinus1972]

Really good video. Extra kudos for showcasing things you built with these tools. Your Godot videos are among the best on youtube.

[@LucyLavend]

Thank you! In videos like this I can also show prototypes that I made that otherwise would never have seen the light of day.

[@AndrewAspiringGamer]

Thank you! No idea what I'm doing, I don't even know programming yet, I'm just thrilled tools are out there to make life a little easier.

[@mokafi7]

Came across this on reddit... One of the best godot channels out there! Keep it up!

[@konradmarciniak4487]

Came here form random YT recommendation. You are the Godot youtuber that we all needed. Wish you to become more popular soon. Keep the good work :)

[@LucyLavend]

Thank you, will do! 😄

[@tonywtyt]

I saw the Qodot addon and was interested in it, but then I figured it was just for Quake maps, not looking at the possibility of creating custom maps. Now I think I'll take a real serious look at it!

[@pura8898]

There is some configuring you gotta do with both it and the quake editor of your choice(usually trenchboom) but after that, you are basically limited by your creativity

[@justofisker]

You explained all of these plugins so well. I really feel like I actually understand them. Thank you so much!

[@LucyLavend]

You're welcome! 😄

[@Atropos148]

HeightMap Terrain and Dialogic both looks awesome, will deffinitelly check those out, thank you for showing those :) also very excited to see that the Hill Climb racing tutorial is coming :)

[@blarvinius]

😊Perfect format for a "check out these add-ons" video! Good bit of detail and how-to.

[@Cybearia]

You seriously deserve more views, keep it up!

[@johnbastion747]

Dialogic reminds me of the RPGmaker dialogue scene maker!

[@Alex-nl5cy]

As the terrain heightmap part started I was thinking "ooh if you could draw trees onto the terrain with that it would be super powerful", I'll have to try that out.

[@Alomare]

Maybe I'm a year too late but have you tried ProtonScatter?

[@ahlokecafe_articulate]

Hope ur wrist recovers fast. I'm learning so much from this video. Thx!

[@LosfrogerX]

Glad to see you back! That editor debugger looks really useful. Take care of your wrist :)

[@isgoldsilver]

really, there is so many godot addons that can be really helpful that I haven't discovered yet

[@Nyltoons1]

Never knew about these addons, I certainly would keep the Dialogic in mind. Cheers!!!

[@Jumpycnat]

Great video! I definitely haven't paid enough attention to addons, the ones you showcased all look very useful. Also I really like your avatar :)

[@Vicious987313]

Glad to see you back! You make getting into gamedev a whole lot easier :)

[@Wonkabonka]

Finally! new video, lets go!

[@QatariGameDev]

Dialogic addon looks polished and awesome! Thanks for the video.

[@MeinTofu]

Just discovered your channel. This is some really great info in a well made video! I hope to see more from you :)

[@Micahtmusic]

you really hooked me with qodots automatic collision generation

[@hairiclilred]

Qodot looks interesting ngl. Great coverage!

[@johnnydsnarkangel]

As someone who already uses all five of these... yes. They are all great

[@shakirmohammed-]

The queen's back boys Also how did you implement bullet decals?

[@LucyLavend]

The ones you see in the video are simple sprite3D nodes aligned to the normal of what the raycast hits, so it's not really a decal that sticks to the geometry. Can't wait for Godot 4 to a proper decals :D

[@shakirmohammed-]

@@LucyLavend does it work at all surfaces at any angle?

[@kingkelpo554]

I hope your wrist is better soon! great vid as always!

[@LucyLavend]

Thank you!

[@5minutemovies977]

Nice video, first one from you that I watch, but I'll definitely be looking at the rest, especially if you cover stuff that I had overlooked... Qodot looks insane !

[@nightcode3171]

Thank you for the great video 💯. Hoping to see more in the future

[@bini420]

The 3d level editor seems great!

[@Shubhyduby]

Thank you! This was very useful.

[@WhatBeDaPointMon]

Thanks mate, gonna have to check Qodot out.

[@Medlirbeat]

Qodot is me new favorite addon to godot, is prefect to make a terrain and levels for games in voxel stile :D

[@crazy-man]

really so many cool plugins! thanks for sharing

[@MindMachineTV]

Thanks for sharing. I really like your avatar style, very megaman legends. Are you planning a tutorial for 3d modeling in Blender?

[@GavenJr]

Wow, those add-ons are amazing!!

[@deepandrence4605]

This helped me a lot. Thank you . Ps. The avatar looks a lot like Hange from Attack on titan.

[@LucyLavend]

Hange and Sasha are my favorite Attack on Titan characters so I might've been inspired subconsciously 😆

[@lucascodebreak]

Dialogic is what i needed, thx for the recommendations :v

[@seraaron]

This is a cute and cool video, love your little avatar, and the terrain tool looks amazing. Do you know if it can import pre-made heightmaps made by other tools too? thanks for sharing! Subscribed

[@Bollalillo]

Amazing addons and showcase :) Thank you very much

[@Dark_Peace]

Dialogic looks great but I already made 600+ lines of dialogue with my own dialog system so I doubt I'd change now...

[@tuliomop]

Thanks so much , your channel has great quality

[@AppyTheApe]

Miss Lucy I'm a totally beginning at coding and programming alike and after watching the video, imo you know a lot like a lot about programming and especially Godot. I just recently decided that I'll start my programming journey just to make games and learn about them and get better at it. So wanted to know what shall I learn first miss Lucy? I mean just want to know your opinion and want a little just a little bit of help hehe Edit: Also sorry about my english it's not my first language pardon my mistake still learning it.

[@LucyLavend]

Welcome to the world of game development! When you're starting out with game development it's good practice to work on a lot of small games. There are a lot of beginners that immediately want to start with on a big project and then get lost when it's too overwhelming (It happend to me). By making a lot of small game and prototypes you get a good understanding of what the core elements of a game are. I've made a ton of (unfinished) small games/prototypes with Godot which helped me understand the basic structure of certain elements. For example in one project I add a level select screen, and I can reuse that knowledge in the next project I work on. But the next time I implement it I can do it way faster and with more confidence. So yeah, my advise would be to make a ton small projects and not get stuck on big projects when starting out. Don't be afraid to throw away game ideas that are not working. Good luck with your gamedev journey!

[@GarentineGaming]

You make great vids. Keep it up

[@LucyLavend]

Thanks :D

[@matetlp360]

I will take yt recommending me this as a sign that i should find time to learn godot. (;

[@aris7180]

this is great, qodot will definitely help a lot on the game I will be working on thank you

[@cherryblossoms5970]

Very nice and well explained tutorials and reviews can you please make a follow along tutorial about FSM ? And thanks for your efforts to create those valuable video's.

[@JiosX]

Wow. Once Godot will have about tens of thousands of programmers, someone will always find a way to make more add-ons.

[@kaptainkrunch593]

[@collinvisser7108]

Thank you for this video. Handy stuff.

[@timetorelaxfocus9642]

Good video, I know about 1 of those addons, you showed some more useful ones. Do you happen to know why the micro-stutter happens in some games? Thanks

[@LucyLavend]

Stutter in your Godot games?

[@timetorelaxfocus9642]

@@LucyLavend Yes, and I've seen it in some others. Not sure what causes it. I've tried troubleshooting it.

[@LucyLavend]

@@timetorelaxfocus9642 have you seen the documentation page on it? There seems to be some odd stutter depending on if you're running a game in fullscreen. If you're using a camera2D, then sometimes setting the process mode to physics can help.

[@timetorelaxfocus9642]

@@LucyLavend I'll double check my camera, I do run in physics process, but I moved some code around, I will look again. Thanks I have tried fullscreen.

[@TommyLikeTom]

that first Addon is so specific that it made me laugh. What about addons to import maps from Black and White Creature Isle?

[@Polychi1998]

where did you get these pixalated textures on the Qodot map along with the gun?

[@LucyLavend]

I made them myself

[@hidekimatsuura9061]

Get'em Lucy!

[@skvader4187]

I also assume that qodot is also compatible with Half life and cs1.6 maps since they're bsp aswell. So i guess you could import de_dust2 if you want.

[@tomaszgoral8154]

By any chance do you think you could make a trenchbroom tutorial for beginners?

How did you setup TrenchBroom for mapping? Did you need Quake?

[@LucyLavend]

The setup process can be quite confusing, I'm planning to make a tutorial on it. You can check the wiki and ask any questions you have on the Qodot Discord server. You don't need quake to use Trenchbroom/Qodot

[@DedenHabibi]

8:04"godot is a game written in godot using control nodes"?

[@Semudara]

Basically, yes! It's almost kind of mind-blowing, isn't it? xD

[@Semudara]

To be a bit more exact, the editor itself is a piece of software that is built with, and running on, the Godot engine.

[@suretmeyenateistoc4252]

how you create dialog scene ? you skip to fast

[@UltimatePerfection]

Is there an addon that lets you load Godot scenes and other resources (including scripts) at runtime? Basically to make a fully moddable game with Godot serving as the editor so that you don't have to write your own one.

[@srkgergely]

It is a built in feature of godot.

Has anyone tried the Asset Forge by Kenney with Godot, for 3D modeling?

i need help how do make blender car work in godot

[@krzyszt0fus]

OMG! Wrist reveal! ;-D

[@levisymons208]

How did you achieve the bullet shot decals?

[@LucyLavend]

It's a sprite 3D oriented with the normal received from the raycast hit, so it's not really a decal. I learned this from Miziziziz's "how to make a retro shooter" course. Hopefully Godot 4.0 will make creating actual decals a lot easier

[@levisymons208]
