AGS Miniature Golf... Is it possible?

Quote from: m0ds on Sat 21/02/2004 23:11:10Where are the holes for where the ball comes out?

I kind of envisioned them just dropping onto the grass ... like they were coming out of a 'worm-hole' ...

could someone convert CJ's face into a mini-golf course? But first make his facial feature obstacles. Like the nose could be a really high slope, and the eyes small hills. The hair could be out of bounds... His lips could be slopes and his mouth or nostrils the hole. That'd be great!

Haddas: since you ask nicely

As for CJs face, that wasn't quite what I had in mind when I said the courses should be AGS game themed... could be cool though. Nostrils for the hole. Heh.

Lost: that looks better!

Farlander: if you play the demo, you'll see there are two slopes already. I just use regions for the slopes and accelerate the ball appropriately. Read the proposed feature list!

Raggit: Yeah, I'm sorry about totally swiping your idea. I should have asked first, but it didn't sound like you were going to do something like this. Full screen credit in the game and docs for you! And credit for course contributors, natch.

Darth: Nice hole! Of course you couldn't resist your "planometric" (it's isometric really - don't listen to them!) style! No JP and Cosmo pimping? Those slopes go up as you go down the screen, correct?

More holes please - use some of those features. Doors, jumps, posts. And *theme* it - Pleurghburg, Larry Vales, 5 Days a Stranger...

I was only kidding Steve!

It's a free idea for anybody who wants to use it!

I would contribute some holes but I'm a little tied up with other stuff right now. Goodluck everybody!

New version!
- 3 holes
- par times
- jumps
- better ball physics
- rolling around the hole
- opening and closing door
- wormhole (Darth's level)

I found 2 bugs

On Darths hole, the hill at the start makes the ball roll up a little, and on hole 3 the light grass "slopes" you can go off the side of them and land neer the hole

Kweepa · Sun 22/02/2004 19:32:56

Hmmm, those both sound ok to me.
Darth's hole is supposed to work like that - the slope goes downhill as you go up the screen. Unless you mean something different?
On hole 3, I presume you mean that you can jump "off-course" to get to the hole quicker. Doesn't help much, but there you go.

Cheers,
Steve

Around my area, when you play minigolf, the last hole is a clownface painted on a high slope, and there are holes all over it corresponding to eyes, nose, and mouth. if you get it in the mouth(or something) you get a free game..... make the last hole be CJ ( with or without his infamous onion rings)

Gilbert · Mon 23/02/2004 06:39:32

No, make it Andy Milonakis.

Kweepa · Mon 23/02/2004 09:14:08

Aah yes, a lord of the onion rings hole!
I still laugh thinking about it.
