How to create a hollow sphere world?
I want do define my world inside a sphere. The objects are stuck to the wall of the sphere within the sphere. Is there any way to do this?

Hey.
Yeah, there are various ways to do this. First you should get with the concept of
wrapper objects
.
(or "marker objects") which is used all the time in game engines. LIke, half the answers on here are just "use a wrapper object then it's easy"
Here's almost the same question except you're inside out here
Actually this question is your question inside-out

also similar...

Another totally different approach. Just turn off gravity and make your own force.
The force is actually incredibly easy ......... if you think about it, it is simply **away from the center of the Drowl.
(A Drowl is a World inside-out.)
Hope it helps
The 'inside out' question where things orbit a planet - may be different from what he needs. If the intent is to run around on the surface, with jumping and gravity etc, then 'spinners' are fine for satellites but not players. In then general case, he should disable gravity and implement his own.
Well - of course, it may be different from what he needs. He doesn't give any visual examples, etc. Note on that other question ...

that's exactly done with "spinners", no physics/gravity/forces at all. (Call it kind of an "arcade planet game".) I suspect, he wants exactly that, so that's the answer, it's just an inside-out "arcade planet game"
But absolutely, it may be something incomprehensibly different from that! Heh!
I wouldn't say in the "general case" use forces etc -- if it's like a normal 3D - let's say - "vaguely GTA -like game" .. first person or third person and so on .. then yes. But it seems the only sort of games being programmed at the moment are "arcade-like" jetpack safari etc :)

Inside-out arcade planet game is a pretty good description. I want to make a sort of "racing tanks" battle type game, where players play inside of a sphere. I'm can't give you any real examples, as I don't know myself personally. It's just a project I came up with on the moment.
Thx for the comments you guys, it really did help.
