Good luck. Any tips we should know within C2 that we should keep in mind.

have you changed both objects to elasticity to 0?

also you can reduce the velocity to 0 on collision if you really need to.

That's because they were third party. the request is either for Scirra to do it, or at least support it in the C2 application.

Helpful feature, but manageable without it.

So rfisher, manage to push your game out yet?

what forms did you need to fill out tax wise before being able to finish?

what did you need to do? if you have at all.

Which is awesome and this announcement certainly deserves it's own thread. Now we just need to wait the the 6 month for them to release it :P

All the time. 6 hours ona problem. Look at it the next morning or an hour later after a break. Then just sigh and realize the fix is small

yes, it was a nice day in Vancouver for Easter wasn't it :)

Happy Easter to everyone else.

jayderyu Can't you just create multiple animations and then swap out the images in each one accordingly? Spriter lets you swap images at any point in an animation.

Well while I can do it the hard way for this game. It seems the least elegant solution right now with no option in the plugin.

As it stands all players play a dragon. The dragon has 10 animation.

I'm using an un-coloured dragon as a template.

Now I know in Spriter I can duplicate the Entity, then swap out the images. It's a awesome feature. This can of course will take a lot of clicking as the dragon is composed of 15 pieces, 12 dragons, 10 animations. If this is the way to go for this game. Then so be it.

But Spriter is supposed to inherently allow image swaping at runtime. Which means that I only need to do the the uncoloured dragon once. Then at run time swap the images of uncloured to the coloured images. But I don't see anyway to do that in the Spriter plugin.

While This is ideal. This game doesn't let player customization. It's all in packs. However my next game i want swapable weapons, hair, body parts, clothing and so on. So taking advantage of the feature now would certainly be desired.

ok, things are working better. I have a question regarding Spriter plugin development.

My game has the main sprite/bone animation. The template animtion is going to be a blank white uncoloured dragon.

Player will then be able to choose which dragon appaerance they want. I'm hoping to launch with 12 colours.

in c2, how can I change the white dragon sprite files

from

dragon/template

to

dragon/red/bland

or

dragon/red/metalic

dragon/red/neon

dragon/blue/bland

dragon/blue/chromatic

dragon/blue/neon

each folder will have there own dragon sprites. but I believe Spriter allows for a kind of doll dressup. I must be missing some thing, but I'm not sure how to do it.

Create an Asset layout.

Never load the Asset layout ever.

using System.CreateObject or Object.SpawnObject. It will create the object on the current layout. The requirement of having created assets like sprites on a layout is an old formality of the system design. I hear it's on the way out.

At some point you can add Objects without them being on any layout. Similar to how Diction/Array and similar plugins work.

So you don't need to add the particles to the layout until you actually need them at run time(or if you actually need them for things like flickering flames...)

Just to bump the thread. Nope.

Still working on my game. I have most of the core gameplay done. Now it's just to get all the little fiddly bits, graphics integration, polish... polish and more polish.

Then comes the integration with the Ouya Controller and IAP. So my game has some ways to go. Hopefully in April. I will update when I releae :P and let everyone know.

Good luck rfisher :) So what are you using for your game. Phonegap and your controller plugin, Psema4 wrapper?

There doesn't look to be any sign of WebGL. It looks like it's going to be just Canvas. I'm sure if OpenGL or WebGL was there on list it would have been.

However, it looks like based on the presentation somekind of wrapper based tech.

This is pretty awesome for Nintendo. Nintendo is all about isolated developement. This is a huge redirection for the company.

I don't think anyone is particullaly fond of one format over the other. Whom ever get's a working spritesheet and toolset I think would be the key :P
