  • Minimap Object - for making minimaps easily... would be nice if they had a "scale" feature as well so you could toggle the area around the tracked object easily.

    There already is one

    Inventory Control Object - Inventory control has always been a struggle in making any kind of RPG game, or any game really if you can carry more than 2 things at a time... Some kind of inventory with visual array would be really nice. This is the one thing that always annoyed me the most when making RPGs, and is usually why I never committed myself to sticking with an RPG style game... Making inventory screens that work well always sucks.

    This is a really good idea.. could go as far as to make it fully automated, so you can 'add' an object to the inventory and it'd take care of drawing it, doing drag and drop, etc.

  • After university I'll have copious free time to work on all my projects and do some coding work. Use this thread to post plugin and behavior requests, however whacky.

    • Online plugin, for easy game making
  • I prefer this theme, but I think the forum can handle different themes and then users select the one they want.

    The problem is each theme needs a title logo for it, which I don't have nearly enough time to do. If you want a theme, and you can design the top logo, then post here and i'll upload it.

  • I understand it was to do with families, but I don't know much more than that.

  • Hold the middle mouse button.

  • The File object can return lists of files.

    Insert a ListBox and File object and then do:

    Add line: File.FileList("C:\")

    Add line can take either a string, or an array of strings such as the returned value of FileList.

  • This is really really good

  • Looks really good; a motion blur is definitely an effect that should be there (though due to the amount of options and scope, it could be an object like Dropshadow).

  • Going to lock this because it serves no usefulness anymore.

    In future stay on topic and try to take advice constructively. People don't hate randomly.

  • I can't actually download the file ("Invalid Quickkey. This error has been forwarded to MediaFire's development team.") but making an event sheet global is simple.

    For every layout you have with its own event sheet, right click and 'Include event sheet', then select the sheet you wish to make global.

    Any actions in the included sheet will then be run for that layout.

  • Whilst i'd agree that PS technology on graphics cards has been a standard for a while, it'd still be good to state what a game requires.

    Better yet, add fallback support so the game can run without.

  • As far as I'm aware resources do not bog down exes to any noticeable degree at small levels (eg, an exe of 50mb is unnoticeably slower than one of 1mb). However, when you start to bundle AVIs for cutscenes and numerous MP3s, it's a fair consideration.

    I'll see about getting this done sooner or later.
