Here it is, my first game...
http://www.angelfire.com/ultra/slamgrinder/instagame.zip

hmm, it's just for the one character tho, not all of them, scripting i believe will do this for all of them.
thanx anyway

lol, i like the entry's so far, espetialy steve's

i have an idea that dosn't require script, have walkable area infront of the gate and walkable area behind the gate, when the character opens the gate an animation or somthing is played and the character ends up on the other side of the gate in the other walkable area. don't know if this will work, and you probably don't need it anymore anyway tho.

by the way, what is the title of the book? it looks like it would suit one of Brian Jaques' Tales of Redwall.

How can I give my character side views only (no back and forward views) without having a blue cup appear when it would normally use the forward/backward views? (ie. delete the first view without deleting the second and third)?
SLaM

well, there is nothing that says they are just character views, so i would imagine that you make another view in the normal view screen, but then i'm no veteran, you tell me...

aha, thanx, i kept trying to do things whith the cord while the master was coming, obviously, they didn't work.

and it dose the exact same thing exept says "unexpected 'DisplaySpeechAt' "

btw whatis supposed to be in the speech marks where it says "my name is ego" because the text that is displayed is already programmed in the room's message editor

Room message

I used Display message and it said "unexpected 'DisplayMessage' "

When you start the game the i want a message to appear from a character who is offscreen (and you never actualy see) saying "Captain! we need you down here! Hurry!"

how can i do this?

What was the game that MrCollossal was making a while back that he released a demo of? about the guy who was about to jump off the building and started floating? I can't find it in the Finnished game Announcements or the games in production forums and he said it would be out in 2004, is it here yet?

Spoiler

got the book and picnic blanket, milk bucket, scroll, coffie been grinder, and used the stool on the sadle but still cant reach and used the book on the plant, and talked to everyone about everything

[close]

but what do i do now? i can't get the plant because the sheep wont let me.

I couldn't find this in the AGS help file so i'll ask here, how do i display text from the rooms messages upon starting the game? i put the basic DisplayMessage in, but i think it confused it because it needed somthing before it.

i vote Darth, the blue theme needs to stay, klaus' i think is too unofficial looking, it dosn't look as true to AGS as darths ect.
EDIT: just realised you said CJ would decide

It's great!! i can deffititely picture that on the front of a book with a titlr above it.
only thing i can see is that if the metal thing is a shoulder pad then his arm appears to come out of him side rather that the shoulder, but if the metal thing is a helmet that he dosn't currently have on, then it's fine because it dosn't imply that that's where the shoulder is

they're great, esspecially the green guy, he could be somthing out or rayman, i can just imagine him trying to kidnap a cow!

it looks good but the character is too unclear

That eye thing is awsome! thayt's all i can say!

looks a little hard to animate but oterwise good! shoulders are uneven also, but that's no big thing realy

ok i have the newest AGS now and i deleted it, prob solved, thanx
EDIT: new prob, ive changed the colour depth and it's chaned the screen resoloution with it, so my BG dosn't fit, how do i change it back without changing the colour depth?
