goat...ugh!(i'm sorry but i'm allergic to meat,chicken, goat or anything that has legs )

meat shouldn't be hard to find here, you'll get them at almost all restaurants(non-veg ones)

you are in southern India, you'll get rice with nearly everything....

thanks for explaining but is there any way the trail object doesn't go into negative dimensions, I figured a way by just changing the value for decrement from 3 to 0.5 but I don't think that's a good solution...

hehe...even i don't know how I got this effect but heck it's great to look at

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5811650/Phuzzles/phyball.cap

I was making a prototype for a game and wanted to add trails behind the player, i got that effect after a few tries but i wanted to spice it up so i started fiddling with the height and width properties when i accidently got this effect.

Now, could someone explain how's it happening??

makes me sad...i couldn't understand a thing after the header file inclusion step.

I've been learning C++ for nearly 7-8 months in school but still have no idea how to get graphics on screen, and looking at amount of code makes me more demotivated.

I really appreciate the developers for spending lots of time and effort on this. I wish I could help with this project but looking at my amount of knowledge and learning speed, it would take me forever to understand the source code.

Hope you can get more volunteers soon.

you mean you want to give "time reverse" like feature??

here's an example:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5811650/Help%20 ... everse.cap

use arrow keys to move, SHIFT to jump and 'R' to trace the player's movement.

this is already done in some thread but I can't find that right now....

this example was first done by deadeye, but for some reason his example didn't work on my computer(probably due to different versions of construct) so I made another example using his idea as a base

I'm in Trivandrum.

Didn't want to offend, sorry, but I really really feel out of place here!

I hope I can find the time (and energy) to do some constructing. I managed to get my hands on Visual Studio Express 2008, so there is hope for the 2.5D behavior

cheers all! I'll be back in july, do your best!

this doesn't offend me atleast you don't read out mugged up dialogues like the 'Discovery' channel hosts that come to India and are telling the truth(whatever you feel about India) apart from that I think you are in the wrong place currently because it will be really hot there(around 44-46 degree celcius)

and I don't know about you but I won't do any constructing in that situation

thanks..it worked I was breaking my head for no reason..

I'm making a game in which the player controls a rocket using the mouse, when you Left click the rocket "blows" away from the cursor in opposite direction. I've got the movement done but I can't make it rotate properly, it should be facing the direction it's moving. I've tried setting the angle of the ship using tan inverse(atan) of yspeed/xspeed but the rotation still isn't proper , can somebody help??

Here is a pic to help you understand better

maybe you could mention the file to be downloaded below the link and if they can read english they can probably download it

But I think if somebody plays computer games they probably know about DirectX, drivers and stuff.

nice game, but i was wondering if you could use newgrounds music in it....is it allowed/legal??

great (as usual), but I couldn't understand a thing (as usual ) i think I should stick to making bouncing balls.

i don't have much of requests but here are 2 of them:

-making the sprite editor a bit more powerful, i know photoshop and GIMP already exist but wouldn't it be better if everything the developer wants is available in a single package.

-this one could sound a bit absurd but.....a logo change?? i mean the current logo is a cog , game maker's logo is also a cog, stencyl logo is also a sort of cog. I know, when you think of game development tools you first think of hammers, cogs etc. but it will be better if we change it to something else, maybe a small competition for making the best logo??( mary jane would probably win )
