1 00:00:00,230 --> 00:00:01,090 Welcome back. 2 00:00:01,100 --> 00:00:05,570 In this lecture, we're going to be installing Roblox Studio and taking a look at some of the settings 3 00:00:05,570 --> 00:00:07,690 to fine tune Studio to your liking. 4 00:00:07,700 --> 00:00:11,420 Now, I'm going to assume that you already have a Roblox account, but if you don't, we'll go through 5 00:00:11,420 --> 00:00:14,420 the quick process of creating one just for the sake of this course. 6 00:00:14,420 --> 00:00:19,520 So at the login page we can go and hit the sign up button and from here is where we can enter in our 7 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:24,200 birth date, a username for your Roblox account, a password, and then we can go through the process 8 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:25,220 of signing up. 9 00:00:25,220 --> 00:00:30,170 So go ahead and turn your birth date, your username, enter in a password, sign up and I'll meet you 10 00:00:30,170 --> 00:00:30,620 there. 11 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,220 And now we are at the home page of Roblox. 12 00:00:34,220 --> 00:00:40,880 From this point we can go ahead and open up the Create tab to download a Roblox studio so we can go 13 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,340 ahead and hit the button, start creating. 14 00:00:43,340 --> 00:00:49,550 And this is going to try to either install Roblox studio from the Microsoft store, but we don't want 15 00:00:49,550 --> 00:00:50,030 it from there. 16 00:00:50,030 --> 00:00:55,250 So we are going to go ahead and download studio and once you've got it downloaded, you can go ahead 17 00:00:55,250 --> 00:01:00,360 and open up this application and Roblox Studio should be automatically installed for you. 18 00:01:00,390 --> 00:01:05,880 Once you have installed Roblox studio, it should automatically open up for you and you should see this 19 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:07,320 kind of homepage. 20 00:01:07,320 --> 00:01:09,360 Now yours will likely be white. 21 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:13,650 Currently mine is set to black because I have it in dark mode and I'll show you how to change that in 22 00:01:13,650 --> 00:01:14,370 a little bit. 23 00:01:14,370 --> 00:01:18,750 But if it hasn't automatically signed you in, then just go ahead and sign in with your Roblox account 24 00:01:18,750 --> 00:01:22,560 and you should be met with this default screen of Roblox studio. 25 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:27,210 To make this easy, we're going to select one of the available templates for our first game, and I'm 26 00:01:27,210 --> 00:01:30,450 just going to select the base plate so we can click this. 27 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:35,760 And now Roblox Studio is going to open up and load our game for us. 28 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:41,310 And now we are inside of Roblox Studio where all the magic happens for creating games. 29 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:48,820 Let's first start off by saving this template to our Roblox account, and we can do so by heading up 30 00:01:48,820 --> 00:01:54,400 to the file tab in the top left and we can go ahead and save this to Roblox as a new experience. 31 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,140 So we'll hit this button here. 32 00:01:56,170 --> 00:01:59,410 This will pop up for us and we can go ahead in the bottom left. 33 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,060 Hit, Create new game. 34 00:02:01,090 --> 00:02:03,250 You can give it a name of whatever you'd like. 35 00:02:03,250 --> 00:02:06,550 I'm just going to call this my first game. 36 00:02:06,550 --> 00:02:08,140 Give it a nice description. 37 00:02:08,140 --> 00:02:10,120 Like, this is epic. 38 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:16,900 And from here you can change some settings such as the genre and what devices will be supported on your 39 00:02:16,900 --> 00:02:17,350 game. 40 00:02:17,350 --> 00:02:18,100 I'm just going to. 41 00:02:18,100 --> 00:02:24,910 And then you also have the option to enable team Create, which allows for you to collaborate with other 42 00:02:24,910 --> 00:02:30,580 developers, meaning multiple developers can edit your game at the same time, and it also auto saves 43 00:02:30,580 --> 00:02:31,810 your game to the cloud. 44 00:02:31,810 --> 00:02:36,310 For now, I'm going to disable this, but you can go ahead and leave it enabled if you'd like. 45 00:02:36,340 --> 00:02:38,140 Then you can go ahead and hit save. 46 00:02:38,140 --> 00:02:41,740 And now our experience is saved to Roblox. 47 00:02:41,740 --> 00:02:48,470 So any time we open Roblox Studio in the future, we will be able to see our game underneath our experiences 48 00:02:48,470 --> 00:02:49,430 for our account. 49 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,400 Now, from this point, you're going to see several things on your screen and you might get overwhelmed 50 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,420 at first, but we're not going to worry about anything just yet. 51 00:02:57,430 --> 00:03:01,450 All we're going to do is just close all of these things out here. 52 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:08,770 And then we're going to double click this home page to enable this top bar if it's not enabled for you 53 00:03:08,770 --> 00:03:09,370 already. 54 00:03:09,370 --> 00:03:13,990 So if yours is hidden like this, just double click one of these buttons to make it reappear at the 55 00:03:13,990 --> 00:03:15,310 top of your screen. 56 00:03:15,340 --> 00:03:19,060 These are a whole bunch of different tabs that we're going to be going over in the next lecture. 57 00:03:19,060 --> 00:03:21,490 So do not worry about them for now. 58 00:03:21,730 --> 00:03:27,670 We're just going to do is go back to the file tab and we're going to go ahead and open up studio settings. 59 00:03:27,670 --> 00:03:32,920 And this is where we can go ahead and adjust a whole bunch of different properties inside of studio 60 00:03:32,920 --> 00:03:34,980 to fine tune it to whatever you'd like. 61 00:03:34,990 --> 00:03:40,930 So for example, inside of the studio section, we are able to change the theme of Roblox Studio. 62 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,730 I currently have it set to dark. 63 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:48,970 Yours will likely be light, so if yours is light, I would definitely recommend changing it to the 64 00:03:48,970 --> 00:03:49,810 dark theme. 65 00:03:49,810 --> 00:03:51,610 Trust me, your eyes will. 66 00:03:51,610 --> 00:03:52,330 Thank you. 67 00:03:52,570 --> 00:03:53,050 Of course. 68 00:03:53,050 --> 00:03:55,270 We have some other settings in here we can change. 69 00:03:55,270 --> 00:03:57,940 Such as the speed of our camera. 70 00:03:57,940 --> 00:04:01,720 We can go ahead and scroll down and look at different color settings. 71 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:08,180 We have for when we hover over objects, when we select objects, the thickness of borders around selected 72 00:04:08,180 --> 00:04:11,510 objects and a whole bunch of other fun little settings. 73 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:16,460 Most of these settings you'll likely never change, but just know that there's a lot of customization 74 00:04:16,460 --> 00:04:17,810 options for you here. 75 00:04:17,810 --> 00:04:20,120 In case you want to change something in the future. 76 00:04:20,150 --> 00:04:25,310 Another important section I think, inside of Roblox studio settings is the rendering tab where here 77 00:04:25,310 --> 00:04:28,610 you can change the quality level of Roblox studio. 78 00:04:28,610 --> 00:04:34,520 So if you're running Roblox studio on a lower end PC, then it may be better for you to change your 79 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,890 editor quality level to automatic. 80 00:04:36,890 --> 00:04:43,790 Now it should be automatic by default, but if you'd like to squeeze out the most visual quality within 81 00:04:43,790 --> 00:04:48,190 Roblox studio, then you can crank this all the way up to level 21. 82 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:52,490 Otherwise we can just go ahead and keep it at automatic as the default. 83 00:04:52,700 --> 00:04:56,720 Once you're done changing whatever settings you'd like, you can go ahead and close out of this. 84 00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:02,780 And now we are ready to dive into all of the different tools that Roblox Studio has to offer. 85 00:05:02,780 --> 00:05:05,450 So I will see you in the next lecture.
