  • The thing I do like is that you can make Browser games like flash with that.

    But can you save it as a .swf so you can use it in your own web project?

    Or better yet .fla?

  • So are Stencle game just played on the web? No exe?

    Well there be a charge for it later? The seem to be keeping information on a need to know bases.

  • Maybe R rated because of language but if you are a Lord of the Rings fan you will love this.

  • Hi developers, please add windows-1251 and UTF-8 support in construct

    Isn't Unicode the better choice?

  • Newt

    Ah I see that works much like the Python hash table. This could work perfectly and I fully understand it. But can you sort by value?

    PixelRebirth

    Very cool, in fact REALLY cool. but can that be sorted at all?

  • Damage is kind of wonky in .99.84 so I hope the next update fixes the problem

  • I was looking at the Hash table and a little confused how it works. I have done them with code but this looks a little different.

    For example how hard is it to make Names and Scores for the top 5 members of a track long jump in inches and keep it sorted?

    It is hard in Construct to add a name and have Construct check to see if it is better in the top 5 and resort?

    Has anyone make a tutorial on Hash Tables?

    Thanks

  • What about just setting up an array and then randomly picking form one of the cells?

  • Sorry if this has been posted before, But according to the rules of the GNU open source agreement the applications cannot be sold. I have bought what I did not know was open source from ebay (It does not say it in the auction), This is the listing http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... K:MEWNX:IT

    Did you guys knoe about this?, The company behind this is known as CashGang.

    They have 2 websites http://cashgang.net/ and http://cashgang.co.uk/

    Just ask for a refund.

  • I just did that to a Game Maker game I made that had 72 frames, it only took a few minutes.

  • Collision is so screwy it's impossible to get anything working right! First it doesn't choose the correct collision mask in animations, now my player sprite's collision mask doesn't work at all. It just uses the image itself, but I still of course have the first problem with thing too for my weapon hitbox. This is just ridiculous. I can't get anything made when everything is so buggy! It's driving me insane...

    It's part of the privilege to use a beta program. I am thrilled to be on the ground floor.

  • *BLINK*

    Geez those are the same guys that change me for sunlight!

    But seriously I am glade you reported it to eBay. Wonder what they will do about it? In general eBay is light on punishment because they get some of the profits. On second thought eBay should turn over their share of the profits to Construct.

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • DB Pro $69.99

    Free Unity is Stripped down

    Unity Pro $1200.00 ($1500 soon)

    In the end it is the programmer not the engine. a beginner with a super engine will never compete with super star using any engine.

    Final note: Better be up on your 3d modeling before you even think about any 3d system.

  • Actually, DarkBasic is not a good program and I would not suggest using it. It is not even a comparable program/engine to something like Unity3D. It puts out bad code for one thing and your coding/scripting language learned in DarkBasic will NOT transfer over into other things. If you're going to put the work into a 3D game, you might as well make sure your learning isn't exclusive to that program. That way if you ever want to graduate to something else, you already know a language.

    Languages do not put out bad code, bad programmers do. LOL

    But actually Dark Basic can teach you the basics, loops, variables, really all the basics to get out a 3d game. Great way to lean cheep.

    But as I said above Python is the better choice to get your feet wet for a new programmer.

    If you want to do 3d python you might want to look at Blender for both you modeling engine and scripting language.

  • I never tried Unity3D and I heard it's the easiest 3D game designing program out there, how easy is it? do I still have to know general/intermediate knowledge of coding? how easy is it compared to darkbasic or blitzbasic? true it might be easy for people who already know a bit of programming for a total beginner or a person who know's nothing I believe Unity3D is still inaccessible for him.

    Dark Basic is a VERY easy 3d game language. You can get up and running fast. I have made many games with Dark Basic, but be warned with ALL 3d game languages you are now moving into more complex art, and may need to learn a 3d graphics package, which may be harder than leaning to code. The beauty of Construct is you can get you game creation fix with lots less work.

    Unless you need to do 3d games, stay with Construct.

    On a side note If you want to get your feet wet with code, try Python. Here are few reasons why. Python is VERY easy to lean and you can use your knowledge in Construct games. Python is free and if you can't get it you are not out of any cash. Also you can add the language to PyGame. Finally the concepts in Python will transfer very easily to other 3d gaming languages.

    Best of luck
