You might also want to try something a bit less involved. RPGs may seem easy to make in terms of the battle system and stuff. But remember the inventory, the towns, all the sprites for NPCs so they dont get repetitive, and all the dialog that goes with each NPC... RPGs are not the best type of game to make as your first game...

and with out showing some interest in you own project by having a tech demo / sprites its just saying to people I have an Idea now make the game for me.

As far as a level editor is concerned, I agree that it wold be good to have a tutorial that teaches how to make one. However, that's more of an advanced project so I won't be including how to make one in this series I'm afraid. This series is pretty much aimed at beginners.

I actually working on a level editor right now.. Maybe Ill write a tut on how to do the loading and saving i did for it...

I know that they have tabs and stuff in Visual C# and they are really useful. I think that would make the application maker a lot better.

Do you have any screen shots or anything that we could see or even a tech demo?

Anyone really looking forward to the holidays getting anything good?

I know Im getting a 1.5 TB hard drive...

No idea what Im going to do with all that space...

NO!!!!! I vote to save the private variables... I dont know what I would do without them...

You could just make a bar and set the width smaller and smaller as you get hit more and more.

Ive used this in a few games and it looks really nice.

Make a private variable "health"

and set the width of the bar to always equal to health.

I think the "Folder Dialog: OK" is broken. Just do this:

+On Button Clicked

-CommonDialog: Show folder selector

-Set edit box to CommonDialog.Folder

The Common Dialog object pauses everything while something is up, so just put the set edit box action right after the show folder selector in the same event. Hope that helps.

The on ok is broken...

You can make it all part of the same event

On button click

-Show open dialog

-set edit box to common dialog.First selected file

but be warned that if you exit the Dialog it may cause a crash I know it does in my level editor.

How did she react when you told her? thats kinda important... I personally would ask her out dont attach any meaning to whether its a date or friends hanging out let her put the label on it. just go out and show her a good time. Just come up with a plan like, going to the movies or something and ask her to do that. you can take it slow just, dont move too slow though, you dont want to get "friend Zoned" Make a move and stick with it. Best of luck!

disclaimer: this is my personal opinion and is not guaranteed to work.

I know when im at school i cant connect cause of the network...

lol

<Aeal5566> the only thing os related i have is plug and play o/s

<SoldjahBoy> yeah turn that on

<SoldjahBoy> its bascially the same thing

<SoldjahBoy> some bios settings are different per board

<SoldjahBoy> try turning that on, it should reset DMA data

<Aeal5566> okay

<SoldjahBoy> hopefully that will do the job

<AshleysBrain> then, submerge your computer in water

<AshleysBrain> that ALWAYS fixes it

Ashley you lied to me it broke my computer....Again...

SO I got the saving and Now I working on the loading of the objects.... i have one problem i cant set the height and width.

Here is the cap http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?fgvzmm2gmxz

I think the problem is picking the object to set the width an the height and its getting confused and not picking any of them.

Controls:

Pick an object from the select box hit new and click in the editor.

You have to click new for each new object you want to create

WASD will Shrink/Stretch the selected object.

QE will rotate the object but it wont load yet.

And i am aware that I dont have any load commands for the Height and width.
