Fight Scripting - Help needed

Afflict · Sat 09/04/2005 20:09:45

Its technical and a scripting question so Iam sure I can post it here. I did try and search the topic no relevant info found.

I want to code some form off fighting engine for my ags game only references I have are Fate of atlantis
and QFG. I am working on my own but I am new to coding. In fact I dont like it but my game needs me to

So please help me with my dilema. I am designing a more modern version of the fighting and need some code to fall back on, and refer to.

Iam looking for templates or samples on fight systems used in prior adv games.
Indiana Jones And the fate of atlantis.
Quest for glory.

Any other fight scripts I can check out please add.

If you're asking what other ways you could go about incorporating combat into your game...that's not really a technical question, more of an adventure related talk question...not that I really care, but you'll find better advice there. Regardless, you could also do combat Zelda, Pokemon, or Mortal Kombat style.

Regarding previous post. Suth505 sorry if my first post wasnt clear.
All I am saying is that I am looking for scripts of these combat situations,
I want to review the code and see what makes it tick. I am working on
my own fighting/combat system. I am actually looking for the code
samples that make them tick. So any downloads you know about please
update me thanx.

Could anyone post a working link for that FOA-Style fight script??
the link http://www.boxfight.de.vu/ doesn't work

This is quite an old topic but still if anyone's interested in an example of QFG1-style fight system, I can try updating the one I scripted in AGS long time ago and upload it.

I'm not sure it is the one you're looking for, but anyway:

Wow, Skimbleshanks is still up?

Scorpiorus · Tue 06/02/2007 19:07:42

Yep, seems like it is. I had doubts about the links to still work but they are (at least those I tried).

By the way, I noticed all the links lead to http://www.lumpcity.co.uk/~skimbleshanks... Did someone mirror the files, or was it always like that?

EDIT:
Rui Pires: Ah that's good to know, thanks for the info

Spleen (I don't remember what his forum name is!) kindly offered to host all the archives. I've talked to him about it, and he says as long as I don't go overboard I'm allowed to keep the space I was using. He was extremely generous, so the files themselves will be available pretty much indefinitely.

At first I hosted them in Freewebs, but it was slow, bandwidth-consuming, and mostly a nuisance. Spleen's generosity was a great gift.

I heard that MarvinS also made a foa-style fight-system but I can't find it anywhere.

Does someone know where I can find it?
