Hello AGS people.
Here is the source code to alot of my games, both released and not. Bear in mind that these were never intended to be seen by the general public so the source probably contains examples of terrible programming and very rude comments. You have been warned.
They are all released under the Creative Commons Attribution license which basically means you can do what you like providing to give credit to 304 and myself.
The files are here: http://www.sanctuary-interactive.com/~steve/toshare/
DistortionMapping.zip 4.3M
This is some distortion mapping stuff I did a while ago for a game. It never got made.
EBTsrc.zip 22M
The source for The Ever Beginning Tale
EUsrc.zip 360M
Eternally Us. This is a massive file because *all* the source files are included. This includes voice over files, sprites, old backgrounds, everything.
HopeSrc.zip 3.1M
This is Hope Actually ignore these. They are very unfinished and out of date.. I'll try and find the proper version.
Pixelformer.zip 2.6M
This is a platforming engine using AGS rooms and regions. You can draw the platforms in using the regions. It's unfinished and a bit buggy but works fairly well.
Practical example of art and folder organisation from an experienced AGSer. Nice, thanks, it'll come in useful for beginners, like myself to get some things right from the start.
Very cool, thanks for the insight in your work, I especially liked the Ever Beginning Tale sources. It's full of awesome gfx effects :)
Unfortunately EBT just runs at 3 fps - oh well, my machine isn't too fond of 32bit.
3fps? :/
Theres nothing going on in EBT that should reduce your system to 3fps. I'm assuming your system must be hamster powered.
Ahhh.. Speedstep was turned on, therefore I just had 1,17 GHz: now I'm up to 7 frames with my Core i5 Hamster at 2,4GHz :-D
I should also mention that it runs at about 37 fps without the nearest neighbor filters.
The platformer is also a lot slower than your Marivania sources, which had a lot more going on.
How odd. There's no graphic manipulation going on in either of those games. I'm assuming it must be your graphics card since its a laptop and the CPU is obviously fine.
There we go, it's the 32-bit mode. The embedded graphics core (GMA 3000HD) simply isn't up for the task. Setting the platformer to 16bit made it run at full speed. Cool stuff nontheless!
hmm even given that I wouldnt expect it to be *that* slow. Possibly a bug with the way allegro4 handles 32 bit surfaces.
And the extras that got lost during the way:

CC-BY for the source code as well? Not something like GPL?
And not something like CC-BY-NC for the assets?
Dont really care to be perfectly honest. You can consider the source code public domain. It's not like anyone is actually going to reuse this stuff.
Great stuff, love the ice crystal reflections.
No need to include the contents of the compiled directories, surely? That does rather bump up the size of the zip files.
That said, thanks for releasing this! Going to be taking a look through it all.
Thanks a lot Clain.This open sources is really useful for me.specially reflections :wink:

Theres also constant animation and lucas arts lipsyncing in that code, both unfinished.
I just wanted to say thank you for this stuff! It's really really good and will help me out several times over while I learn to create walkcycles.
Careful of using those walkcycles as references. They're a bit rubbish; I didn't bend the knees enough during forward leg swings. Definitely something you should keep in mind before you learn the bad habits I had while making this stuff.
Pixelformer is proving helpful, thanks for releasing this!
