  • Way to go Rojohound.Now for the next challenge,Let the character have animations on the desktop.Like walking or a falling animation when you drop the character.I love it when Someone says "No it cannot be done in CS" And then someone goes and prove's them wrong.Rojo you are a genius thank you for your help.

  • Yes im working on that at the moment.Yes Clickteam's installer is actually freeware and downloadable on thier website.It's fast , easy to use and most of all it's free.Im thinking of using the advanced camera plugin so that i can zoom in and out.

  • Yes indeed, however they forgot the most important test of all.Here it is.LOL

  • The best one was Ghost Hunters.Fact or Fake is a good show but theyre debunking methods aren't that convincing and they always choose the creatures or aliens cases which is really getting old quickly.The one with the black lion was hillarious,That video was so conveniently blurry you couldn't make out what it was.

  • Lol yeah.It's still in development ,Im busy with stage 2 at the moment.I have included upgrades and missiles so far.

  • Thnx for the demo cap rojohound,I see what you mean by slow.I will experiment some more and see if i can speed up the region generation.With my own experiments the region generation is acceptable but then it causes the desktop to freeze up and the prog would crash.

  • Tried some of those theories out on CS and i failed miserably,Then i used another 2d games creation package to see if i could suceed and voila it worked like a charm on the "other" program even got the sprite to walk,Run and fall when you drag and drop it onto the desktop.

    The Other program im talking about is called Game Maker pro 8.0.And so i studied the extension file and the dll file to see how they achieved this.The backdrop is a black and white picture where only the white shows on the desktop.The second file is the texture or picture almost like the diffuse and opacity feature that daz3d uses.

    But i will carry on and keep experimenting with this on Construct until i get it right.Unfortunately i cannot create a plugin for Construct because my visual basic 2008 pro is screwing around again.It looks like a plugin would be the most viable option to achieve this.That's why i love Construct so much,The "how the ^&*%$# do i do that to getting that warm and fuzzy feeling when you actually solve the problem ,It's way better than playing games lol.

  • CS2 looks very good indeed.Good job keep it up.

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • A little demo i made with Construct.It's still in it's dev stage at the moment.

  • Thanks for the info Krushbrother and Rojohound.

  • Im not sad or dissapointed at all about this decision,In fact im very excited about 2.0. I can't wait to see the beta release keep up the great work.

  • You asked this question last year, and RojoHound came up with the answer.

    You even got it working and posted a cap demonstrating it.

    Krush.

    Um I know ,This is a different question.Its not about the shape of the window anymore but the mask of the sprite making up the shape of the window,Im asking about the mask of the sprite not just the window shape.

  • Is there a way to create a shaped or translucent window with Construct?.MMF has the window shape object which wil let you create a shape of the sprite's mask.For example : Like those desktop buddy

    apps etc..Can this be achieved through Python Scripting and if so please show me an example of how this can be done through python.

  • Wow thanks for the info jayjay.Well the developers should concentrate more on the AI of todays games.Imagine duke nukem on kinect seeing you and then analyzing your face etc... on then come up with one of his classic remarks like "your face your #ss ,What's the difference" lol

  • The kinect is a fine piece of hardware make no mistake if it could be utilized to scan 3d objects and create a 3d model of that object to use in games etc , that would make 3d modelling so much easier.

    Im still using my old 60Gb ps3 model it's been working perfectly since 2007.I don't know why i have such bad luck when it comes to the xbox360 though.I only play for like 3 to 4 hours a day on both.And i take a break after every hour to let the consoles cool down.

    It would be nice to use the Kinect within Construct,Then you could create some wierd and innovative games.But don't count the ps3 eye out,It can be used on a pc with all it's features.If only there were a plugin for construct to utilize the power of both these cams.
