  • Also, it's not only about being able to draw or not, Making good hi-res graphics just takes too much time. Low-res is abstract. Hi-res isn't nicer either most of the time, contrary to logical thought. Sometimes low-res is a stylistic choice, sometimes it's just because it's fast.

  • the 360/5 doesn't matter AFAIK, constant expressions like that are compiled into a constant at runtime.

  • two hundred and eighty, plus one hundred and fifty times the sine of: three hundred and sixty divided by 5, times the variable called time. You should become very familiar with expressions if you want to be able to make anything in Construct. sin() is a math function, which you should be familiar with.

  • I received a badge because one of my posts got upvoted 3 times. However, I see no way to upvote posts. Unfinished feature?

  • That doesn't stop you from making a doom clone with simple pseudo 3d. But yea, for the average user, making a game in 3d in Construct is more trouble than it's worth. Search for a game called "Mega Thumb:Dream Match" by Quazi and I, It shows you the extent of 3d in Construct Classic. If C2 ever gets mesh distortion (which I doubt it will, since the sprites aren't polygons to begin with) then a 3d game like that will be theoretically possible. For now though, you can still make simple 3d with sprites alone, and a fair bit of math.

  • It's not "very dangerous"... Frame rate independence is not always wanted/required, and you don't ALWAYS want things to be affected by time-delta. It's also not essential to pausing a game. I think for the time being he should just focus learning the basics of events and ignore the complicated aspects like time/frame based logic.

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads
  • I read somewhere that Firefox uses direct2d, which like Ashley mentioned, is only available on vista on windows 7. I don't know if they've upgraded that since then, but that might be the problem.

  • Well, I just found out about Construct yesterday and would be glad to sha..

    Wait what

  • By HTML5 version, do you mean an actual website using html5 features, or just a C2 project for the entire site.

  • Your index.html can be a blank page with some javascript to do the redirect.

    window.location = "http://www.site.com"

    Testing for HTML5 is a bit more complicated.

  • C2 is early in development.. It IS very incomplete.

  • b]Davioware found a major efficiency issue with function object where calling functions using an expression runs at about one third the speed of calling using the addparam and callfunction actions.

    *Cough* Fixed.

    Also, Lucid, What was the bug?
