Line Rider Race #2 + (LR Track Cinematic Shot Blender Converter File Download)

Added 2022-05-25 16:40:21 +0000 UTC

People have been asking me how I did the 3D intro at the beginning. If you'd like to make 3D cinematic shots of your own Line Rider tracks, here's how to do it.

First, download the "LineRiderBlenderConverter(dot)zip" file attached to this post and unzip it.

Then simply open the LineRiderConverter.blend file (I'm using Blender version 3.1.2), and go to the scripting tab. Replace the trackFilepath = 'F:\CurrentProjects\LineRiderRace2\Example.track.json' with the path to your desired line rider track and run the script with the play button in the scripting tab of blender. Viola, you have now converted the track json to Blender grease pencil lines, allowing you to manipulate and render them in any way you desire!

For keyframing the camera motion, Polyfjord has an amazing tutorial to get easy smooth camera movement in blender that I used for my recording.

I will answer any questions in the comment section here. Happy Wednesday!
