Source Codes

Guyserman82 · Sat 02/01/2010 21:57:02

As I am done with densming's AGS tutorial, I have been downloading source codes to learn more about AGS. Now, I know I will risk learning about sources codes that I've already looked at, but I would appreciate it if you would post some source codes here.

What kinds of source codes are you looking for exactly? I could give you dozens of source codes on how to do everything But what you would actually need or find useful.

The beginners tech thread is riddled with tons of basic questions and codes. Basic stuff like how to use a key on a door, etc etc. When I started, the search function was my dearest friend (just as long as the thread title was named properly and descriptive). You can find almost anything.

There was an OpenQuest project for download, but links on AGS games database are broken, so I uploaded one which I stored on my HD:
http://www.box.net/shared/o6l46lnho1

It is for AGS 2.72, but you can upgrade project to 3.+ by opening ac2game.dta file in AGS editor.

Game page in database: http://adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=detail&id=945

Nice upload Crimson, I PM'd the author about the broken link, hopefully he will modify the game page.

Guyserman, if you're interested in more spicy code: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=36546.0

Lmao Bicilotti! He said he just finished Densming's video tutorials--not a course in physics programming. Lol

Well, in answer to this, I am looking for anything and everything. I've downloaded Ahmet's Fight Game 2009, Taxi, and Platform Horde, plus I've been working with Demo Quest 3. I haven't looked into taxi much, but I do intend to. I am currently trying to figure out how to mess with Ahmet's code to get movemnt fluid in my own game. And I did look at Platform Horde, and learned some things that will go into a later game. Taxi I'm not sure about, but thanks anyway.
And I'll download OpenQuest when I get the chance. Thanks for that.

Wasn't ! meant to be open source, or am I just dreaming?

Ryan Timothy B · Sun 03/01/2010 21:24:03

I don't believe so, but I think IWWHIIWWHITOMIROTPG was supposed to be open source.

I think it might of been a little sly comment in one of Ben's blog posts I may of misunderstood. I live in hope though

You know, now that I think of it, I am concidering making a stratgey RPG in AGS. Are there any RPG or strategy source codes out there?

Ryan Timothy B · Sun 03/01/2010 21:47:57

No strategy codes that I know of...
(but.... I am making a strategy game--but we all know how long it takes me to pump stuff out).

I hear you, man! Games take WAY longer to make than we think they should.
I really don't think I'll need any source code for my strategy RPG (I think I already have it figured out), but it would be nice to look at what other people do.

It seems is written in AGS 2.72. Good for JRpg.

Thanks for trying bicilotti, but I can't figure out how to open it, and I've tried it twice. Do I need an older version of AGS?

As I said above, 2.72 projects can be upgraded to 3+ by opening ac2game.dta file in AGS 3.
