  • I'm not too thrilled. Gimmicks and publisher-ordered sequelitis plagues this year now, and there's STILL no DNF.

  • if it's $60, then i'd better be playing it by the next two years. Because of that, my game wants only boils down to 'essentials' (Battlefield 2, UT3, TF2, Duke Nukem Forever) rather than technological novelties (Portal, Crysis, Left 4 Dead)

  • ah thanks, I never knew that!

  • this is my cool game

  • I'm making a scrolling game in 320x240. Unfortunately, the XAudio playing sound from object feature doesn't work quite well since it's trying to translate from the coordinates of the non-scrolled, big layer rather than the local screen layer (where I put the hud in). This causes my sounds to be quiet and positioned incorrectly with the screen.

    Is there a way to playback sound effects from their correct position relative to the scrolling center?

  • I don't like twitter either. Maybe i'm getting too old for the internet as I don't like myspace or facebook also. The latest internet application I bother with are php forums like this one.

  • A box full of Hot Wheels. Beat that.

  • To Construct.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • The world wide web as we know it, ate Gopher.

    Bulletin Boards (as in BBSes, not forums and message boards) are still around, but they're just old files ran by old folks with either classic door games (Food Fight, Legend of the Red Dragon, Kannons and Katapults, etc), or some delusion that their file server bbs (with requirement for registration of your personal address and phone etc) is worth the trouble for 80s/90s files that can be found with a google for old shovelware CD collections.

  • Nice! Reminds me of xjump.

    (I like xjump)

  • Using boxes that way is pretty standard in 3D btw.... it's called substractive space. Used in Quake. Now with boxes, of course, but with meshes. Brushes!

    Unreal's subtractive, Quake's additive.

    After realization of the whole Z stuff, i'm thinking Chaotix bonus levels actually being possible to make now, though there's no wrap around for Z.

  • Did you extract all files into a folder? It has music and sound subfolders. I also use the MOD object for this.

    I wanted rotation for lerped and precise aiming.

  • RMXP sites are only having lots of traffic since the RPG Maker series are much older than Construct and had built cult popularity since the RPG2000 Don translation. The guidelines are there to keep the level of massive ambition vapor projects announced down (since many young users of RM think they can outdo final fantasy with it). Can't say it'd work the same for this forum.

    By the way, I can't attach screenshots. I don't want to rely on imageshack.

  • Why can't I be vague and catch a nap? At least there is a file and it isn't a thread of nothing. This isn't a problem.

  • I was bored last night and played with the RTS behavior and line of sight... and out came this.
