I just have issues with the morals surrounding it... people who offer open source projects do not usually intend for someone else to copy+paste it, rename the file then sell it for millions of dollars...

It's not that I "hate Microsoft" as such, I just hate anyone that takes advantage of things in this way to exploit it for thier own personal conquest/gain.

I still find it funny that Microsoft products are always full of bugs and extreme fail... I saw the official bug report from the RAAF base here in Adealiade on Windows Me (retail version) a few years back... it was 400 pages long.

AAAAaaaaannnnnd, there. Now that all the thoughtful conversation has ended, thus commences the obligatory hateful and uninformed anti-Microsoft rhetoric.

No offence Capt'n, but I've sold many a Microsoft product in the 15 years I have been doing so, and know quite simply for a fact that Microsoft do not have a single creative bone in thier entire body. MS Office is a perfect example of how to rip off open source projects and sell them for money... OpenOffice was around before MSOffice was on a Linux platform, and M$ ripped it off, icons and all.

My hate is not uninformed, nor is it even biased... I acctually don't like the fact that I hate Microsoft so much... but it's mainly driven due to the fact that they are the ONLY company in the world that can sell a defective product and get away with it... take Windows and the Xbox 360 as perfect examples of this.

Anyway, I still find thier futile attempt at making a "klick" product very humorous at the very least... I guess this is what you get when Microsoft does indeed try to make something without copying everyone else... that's why they end up just finding something better and buying it, or outright stealing it.

OH NOES IV'E BEEN RICK ROLLED~!... sort of

Well, sadly it's only a matter of time before someone from Microsoft finds Construct and totally rips it off and sells it for mega dollars...

LOL

"Microsoft... who will they try and copy next?"

eg: I place two path objects and give them each 10 way points, one is "Left" the other is "Right". Then I create a sprite with the path behaviour and I can tell it to follow Left, reverse at the end of Left, and then follow Right.

I already suggested this a few times, but it's good to see other people are thinking along the same lines as myself

I'M NOT ALONE!!

Hey nicely done

That's pretty much how I used to do stuff like that in MMF/TGF. Works good, but works even better in Construct

I spent 4 days trying to find a way to ricochet it off at an angle, but getting it to stop a few frames after it bounces was the best i could do for now

I couldn't even figure out how to get it to do that...

I played it and I think it's pretty cool I like the smoke effects and stuff... one suggestion though, when you use a handbrake the cars rotation speed should be increased as it would in real life... other than that it's pretty cool. Once Ash has time to address the bouncing issue it should be easy to improve the collisions.

Touching a wall should bank the car off the wall at a proper angle instead of causing a bounce (and in this case, a total stop). This behavior frustrated me, as it felt a little cheap.

This is part of the car behaviour and cannot be changed... trust me, I've tried. I asked Ash to look into it, as you can't stop the car from bouncing off at supersonic rates. I'd rather turn the bounce off all together so I can program/script my own collision definitions.

It's a web based game that uses a "realtime" system of advancment. It's one of those games you can play for 2-5 minutes a day and have a little fun while you're at it

Come join me on SERVER 7 (it will try to default you to server 10 I think) and fight the pesky warewolves... If you get directed to server 10, the link will change to s10.bitefight, so just change it to s7 and you should be able to sign up on the same server as me and join my clan

Here is the link:

Sorry to spoil the surprise, but it's a helicopter.

WTFZ

Thanks. I realized the other day that there's even a way to properly angle the lasers to get them traveling through 3D space. If the 3D object gets made, I'm tempted to make a starfox clone myself.

I wonder if the same principle you used to make this demo could be used to make a 3d car racing game like the old Outrun games and stuff? I'm not sure how you would make it seem like you are turning around corners though... probably not very easily.
