Title: Screensavers made in AGS?
Post by: arj0n on Tue 04/05/2010 19:27:05
Are there any screensavers or screensaver-like programs made in AGS yet?
The only one I know of is "WOO - World of our own (by Gepard)" (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=detail&id=1224).

I think one of the Russian MAGS was basically a screensaver. With...a discoball?

DISCO FLOW (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=detail&id=1247)

Actually I haven't played it. But this (http://s57.radikal.ru/i156/0912/98/e0b8a4299265.gif) is my most favourite screenshot in the games DB :P

So the only AGS-screensavers existing seems to be 'WOO' & 'Disco flow'.
Then my little project might become the third one...  ;D

I remember writing a loader for WOO so it can actually be used as screen saver in windows.
If you have WOO somewhere installed you can place this file (http://wyz.agser.me/dl/other/WooScr.zip) in the same map and right-click->install it.

It actually works for all AGS games, as long as you name the file the same as you game executable.

And thank you for that, Wyz :D

Just this week I made a little screensaver of pixellated versions of me and my uni mates dancing around, and your loader made it all possible :)
