  • Apparently I have to register, so I doubt I'd have enough reputation points..

  • I wouldn't call that support. It's pretty crap. Doesn't have any support for offsets and doesn't have any preview function , so I'd have to do shitloads of trial and error to find out the proper sizes.

    I agree. Construct is a damn fine tool, but help on the sprite animation side was pretty thin. The lack of the ability to preview is a biggie. Sure, we can test when we run the game, but sometimes that's just not viable, or requires a bit more effort than we'd like. Ah well, me being me, I just want one big button that says, CREATE GAME. DONE!

  • You know what would be cool... something like SWAG from the Pascal / C++ days. For those who don't know, SWAG was basically a collection of code snippets appended to by programmers around the world, to perform certain tasks from file handling, to physics, to graphics. Very handy back in the day. I can imagine such a thing being popular with Construct, not only for the code snippets, but if it included caps too somehow. Think of it almost like a downloadable version of jamesx's tutorials list.

  • See? You did some tasteful humour... "or worse, an animal" and yet, there was not a swear word in sight. Look at most comedians, they hardly swear (unles we're talking about Chubby Brown) but they can be funny as hell. Angry Videogame Nerd uses swearing and cursing to make himself seem funnier 'cause we've all been there, swearing at games when things go wrong. Humour is more about getting people to relate. Well, ironically, you posted a tutorial, but it seems you have learned something... that humour with swearing has to be planned carefully or it just won't work, especially when it's 95% swearing and calling people perverts.

  • And there was me thinking deadeye posted a pic of himself..

  • Driving traffic to your website is easy. Keeping them coming back isn't.

  • biological age is just an empty number. i know 40s who acts like spoiled kids and kids who are more mature then their parents, with life expirience richer then my own.

    Forgive the sins of youth i say. We all've there.

    When I found out he was 15, I could relate 'cause I had the same sense of humour at that age, but probably would've been a bit smarter in how I showed it. Hopefully, he's learned when to show that sense of humour, and when not to..

    granhunter, good to see you've taken the criticism and cleaned it up. In a game setting, it's up to you really what you do, but in a tutorial, you need to be a tiny bit more professional. That's all I was trying to say.

  • Try Construct 3

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

  • First of all, I'm 15.

    Explains a lot. I thought you might be young but I've known of 20 year olds to act the same way so.... Well I wouldn't have been as harsh if I'd known.

    Sagal, and I thought you only bowed before things with alcohol content!

  • Jayjay, I think he meant "if you're going to LET what some person you don't even know..." meaning he thinks he upset me or something. You're right btw. If this was in a game, I wouldn't even be bothered but because it's a tutorial, I felt the swearing was unnecessary. I mean there was even a random "FUCK YOU" or "FUCK OFF" in there... like wtf?

    granhunter, don't flatter yourself, you haven't got to me. It takes much more than a few curse words in a tutorial to upset me, but since you think I'm over reacting, then go ahead and continue to do more tutorials in this style and you'll see how other people (over)react.

  • Sensitive? I don't think so. I'm Scottish. We invented swearing! You can be funny (or "insane" as that's how you obviously want to appear) without plastering curse words all over a tutorial.

  • Holy crap. I was just about to sign out and noticed scidave's reply so thought I'd check it out a bit more and man..... I did not realise it was THAT BAD. I'll not leave further feedback because it just wouldn't be pleasant nor helpful, kinda like your tutorial.

  • Ah I remember a tool like this from the old days called CodeBank. There was a similar one that had different features but I cannot remember the name of it. Hope this people start using something like this for Construct. That'll be useful. I usually store all my code snippets in a text file....
