Hi

I am currently working on complete remake of my game, originaly in 320x200. Resolution will probably be 1280x720.
I am using some vectoring upscale program and some filters. Results are pretty good if don't look to close.

I plan to release the game for mobile phones too, so there should't be any problem, because of the small screens.

Look at it on full screen.

Here are some samples:
320x160 [img=http://s14.postimg.org/yefwsqb1p/jungle6_insidecave7.jpg]
1920x960 [img=http://s28.postimg.org/idzb37ld5/ANT20_1920.jpg]

1920x960 [img=http://s27.postimg.org/9ol24sm33/JUN_03_1920.jpg]

What do you think ?

I have a problem with playing some sound in GLOBAL SCRIPT:

I got a character that eats something in his enventory - with crunchy sound
I tried this in "sound free" room - so it should be the only sound playing

Script:
**************************
if (player==cNeznanec) {
  cNeznanec.Say("MMm.");
  aVeveria_je.Play(eAudioPriorityVeryHigh); // eating
  cNeznanec.Animate(12, 8, eOnce, eBlock);
  cNeznanec.LoseInventory(iLectovoSrce);
  cNeznanec.Loop=1;
  Wait(40);
  cNeznanec.Say("text.");
  Wait(40);
    aNeznanectrebuh.Play(eAudioPriorityVeryHigh); // another sound effect)
    Wait(20);
  cNeznanec.Say("text.");
  cNeznanec.Say("text.");
  while (cZaseka.Room!=cNeznanec.Room) Wait(1);
  cZaseka.Say("text.");
  cNeznanec.Say("textl.");
  cNeznanec.Say("some text.");
  Wait(10);
  stranisceneznanec=1;
}
*************************

Everything works fine, except i can't hear any sound.
If i use sound in the characters VIEW-FRAME it works fine.

Hi

Just couldn't find anything that would help me.

I have a long room that has moving cars. So i need a sound effect to follow the car (fade in-fade out when car passes by (engine sound)).
Engine sound is couple of seconds long, so it must play and than repeat itself and follow the object across the screen.

Thanks

So here is pic:
1st is from editor, second from the game- from the game looks ok, but in the editor is all messed u p - why?

Hey

I was wondering if (or how) it s possible to specifiy a GUI and only a button graphics for the engine too look.

I don't want to specify a exact button, but only the NORMAL GRAPHICS parameter !


I have a custom gui, and inventory slots will be actual buttons, as there are many inventory items available in random order to pick up (so button one can be a BUCKET, STICK, or anything else), i want to make script shorter, so i want for AGS to only look for specific button graphics not the button name.

hope this makes any sense

Hi

When a add new GUI (possition 6) I get following error:

Error (line 89): expected variable or function after import, not 'FindGUIID'

If i delete GUI (so i only have 5 guis than) game works fine.

It could be possible i overlooked something ?

Linux version comming soon, i hope

Juhu

I was thinking two things.

First one was, should i remake my first game, called Project Xenophobe, it was released in Dec 2004.
As this was my first game and was was very fresh at AGS than.
Game has some flaws, like it is in 640x480 (althou it was drawn in 320x240 and than resized to 640x480), poor animation etc.
So I was thinking to remake it to be 320x240, new improved animations, maybe few added thingies, improved backgrounds and in 256 colors, so that the game would be easier to download for people with low bandwith .
And my second thingy.
Should it be good to make the game as small as AGS possibly, like, fewer colors, less sounds. I was thinking for my current project Infinity String to make two version, first would be normal in 32-bit with full sound and music and full animations, second would be released maybe a month later, but in 256 colors, with only basic sound and midi music so it would be very small in size (MB) and easier to download. Like first one would be around 35 MBs (or larger), second would be only 5 to 6 MBs.

What do you think ?

Talking about retro games, have anybody played Tetron v4.36 ?

I think it is the best tetris clone I played !

Download link:

What is a Photoshop ...Phriday?

Photoshopping isn't drawing a completely new image -- It's editing images to create a new image, such as editing one image or combining several images. The contest usually lasts for a fortnight. Also, you don't have to specifically use Photoshop -- Paint Shop Pro, MSPaint, or any other programs can be used. Please make sure your image doesn't exceed the width of the screen. This competition is also known as the Photoshop bi-weekly meaning two weeks long. hopefully boosting it back to full lenght will encourage more entries.

To honor Tocsiks victory, the theme is...

Theme:
... What can happen to a human or animal after surgery.

Here a picture made for my current project, i think it has a bit strange posture but i cant put my finger on it ?
What else ?

Hey

I took some time from work , and I was trying to make real kind of hand, as reference I put my own hand in front of my face.

So here is the pic:


->zoom 2x:


I think more shadowing is required, specially on the fingers.

What could it make it more real..?

I will made a platform game after i complete my current (and that could be a long time ). So I made a soldier with gun, here are two posese + fireing animation.

Any suggestions !?


2x




EDIT 1 (picture added):

2x

This is Natalia, she work in SGC as a guard. But army life is boring, so she is thinking about new job. A "exotic" dancer. So make here fameous.

Undress here in sexsy way, like puting here clothes off in some interesting ways, maybe a bit of belly dancing...

***bonus***

-Moving boobs
-A lot of sexsy underwear
-Using some kind of object (dancing around a pole or something)
-Extra hot positions

***********



Have fun...

Maybe i should make a web page for my latest game, so i made something.

This is picture as how it would be:


What could be changed, how...


EDIT: Updated picture !

I have shortened a competition a bit, as nobody gives anything new in the last couple of days, so it is "only" 10 day long .

Ok

The main theme is a great passage, gates, narrow passage to a cave or castle, something that has a enter point ... hope you get it

Enjoy.

Here it is my latest background of nature and redish sun, possibly background for menu :S

So: ?



I am not completly satisfied with the picture, but i think it is still good enough. MAybe bushes needs some more work !?

By the way, i have 35 pictures - > from the begining to the final picture, it crudly show how it was done if anybody is interested, i will upload it in ZIP file !??
