PathFinder is a lot faster then the original C2 Pathfinding. It would be great if this plugin/beh could be somehow passed with the source to C2 developers. Especialy as original C2 Pathfinding... is kind a weak.

bump any luck Kan ? i am asking because i have a similiar issue. and it must be something hyper-simple because the person who will do the data writing is not a programmer or anything.

Well i registrated. I mean, what worse can happend? more junk mail i can deal with. And i doubt they will come all the way here to i dont know - kill me ?

The thing i am curious about is do they pay or just run away with your money.

I have even a better lifehack. No plugins needed.

Click Printe Screen on your keyboard. Then open Ms Paint and press CTRL+V

MAGIC! :O

umm.... care to elaborate...? or is it just "gimme my moneh b1tches".

First of all, on the bottom right corner of every page, on scirra.com you have all the needed links. About, contact - you name it. And this is where it should go. Not here. You have over three hunderds posts, you should know better. That is, if you really want to get the job done - not just make a fuss.

You can write your own shaders with the SDK.

Yeah, and i also can write my own engine or game creator.

3rd party plugins/effects made via SDK are something optional, not some granted charity labor you can count on. Beside, your answer do not match the question.

I was not asking: "hey how can feature A, B and C come to reality?"

I was asking "Are there any NEWS?" Aka - is someone still working on this? Do anybody remember? Then "bump" if not. Because the few missing shaders would be very helpful.

So you come to a restaurant and ask do they serve pancakes. And as an answer - the owner tells that you can go home and make your own pancakes.

Great. Cool. Awesome. You knew that. Yet still you've came here. Because if making those pancakes all by yourself would be an option - you probably would STAY home. Quite logical, isn't it?

So yeah. Is anybody, from the official dev. team still working on new shaders/effect? If not - could your spare some time and make those few missing, please? If not - why?

I like knowing whats the exact status quo. So i can figure out a workaround if its needed.

i rendered this myself =)

Dang. What did you used? Software i mean. You hand-cut it or generated? Do you still have the model somewhere? Not so long ago i was looking for a crystal like that. And none i've found suited my taste. Regardless were they models, sprites, made by me or others. So i ended up using something else. But your crystal is just perfect. I don't have any use for it as of now, but i really wouldn't mind having it around. In case of need.

And why the hell i keep on reading the topic name "Erosion & DILDATION"

over 2 years have passed. Any news on the drop shadow? or decent glow/bevel/stroke?

Mind if i ask where did you get that beautiful crystal sprite?

this is a god send. But rfisher can i request for you to somehow integrate it with Tilemap object? There are not many user-friendly dungeon generators, yours are is one of few if not even the ONLY one. But because it uses sprites - it creates hell load of objects which is a killer if you have mobile games in mind. Sure it can be mixed with Tilemap Object even now (using Drawmaze and then mapping the Tilemap based on the maze generated, and destrying the sprites afterward) but it adds few needless, from technical point of view, steps in order to be used proparly.

From what i understand the Drawmaze generates a an array and creates sprites/objects in a pattern based of that array. Now if we could somehow have access to that array alone - we would be able to use it elsewhere. E.g load our tilemap based of that array.

Being able to save the create/generated array data and paste it into json or array format... you would really make day.

Tilemap VS Sprite (arranged and used in a Tilemap manner)

Go and make a Boulderdash-style map/game. lets say 30 x 30 tiles (this is not that big, gameplay-wise) using sprites (Sprite Object) as tiles. Preview on Android. Write down CPU/FPS. Then do the same thing with Tilemap Object (again 30x30 tiles). Then compare the results of both tests.

And this is just a small BASIC example. Don't get so butthurt when people criticize you. Especially when they are someone far more expirienced then you are. I would take their advices regardless of their tone (which was rather neutral in this case, if you would ask me. ). You learn from the master, you teach the aprintences. This is how it works.

As for the terminology - things changes, yes. But the basics do not. Circle won't suddenly be called triangle. Even in 1000 years. Water won't burn and fire won't freze. Sprite sheet, tilemap, sprites, tiled bg, e.g - they never change. They have the same meaning from over 20-30 years. If you are not very familiar with them, it means you lack some basics. Ergo - your competence as a tutor is questionable. And this is what Shinkan has pointed out, i'd say politly. And believe me - out of all the people on this boards or/and the internet - he was the nicest commentator that could come around. It could been worse.

It could have been me.

Can you guys elaborate? I am not using beta-build so i cannot open your capx
