Hey! I know we mostly do adventure games here, but I was thinking I throw this in here to.

So we are bunch of weekend warriors that like to get together on weekends and play some Arma 2. We do tactical coop games, but nothing too serious. We like to have fun, but doing it "right".
So if there are any Arma 2 players here, check out our steamgroup at: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/Arma2coopweekend
We play Arma 2 Combined ops, Saturdays and sundays usually at 18:00 gmt+2. Check the steam group for more info.
You don't have to have steam version of the game in order to join our games.

Jump right in and bring your friends! (since our large scale missions really need more troops!)

Wanna hear free music? Well this is your day!
Head over to: http://sinecadenza.sarkasmi.com/ ( or http://www.distantshitfilms.net/sinecadenza/ )and start listening!

What this is about? Well, while I could working on adventure games (like Thanatus), me and a friend of mine have a music project called Sine Cadenza. It's instrumental. We just released new songs so check it out!

Oi, I'm back here to promote something again. I recorded and mixed an EP for a band.
And here is the outcome: http://www.heyjodie.com/
Check it out and tell your buddies

Hi folks. Ok I'm continuing with my 3d head model (http://www.distantshitfilms.net/personal/3d/head_wip_2.jpg)
and starting to make the teeth. And since I have no idea how to make it happen I need some help with it.
Should I first, model the teeth, map them, and then attach to the head mesh, or model them, attach and then map with the head?
Only problem is that with my UVW skills I dont know how to get other texture than the skin, applied to the teeth, if they are in the same mesh when mapping.
Is there some plugin that could make the 3d max's unwrapper bit more like a UnrealEd's texture apply system? Or something.
Tips and tutorials would be nice.

Started today working on this head, and need some cnc.

Firstly, the eyes are too far from each other and too high. The ear looks like shit.
Some might say that the nose is too large, mayby a bit, but I like bignosed characters , but still prolly going to rescale it a bit.
Hair will be done after the shape of the head is done.

Edit:
Ok, I shaped the head, moved the eyes, and made them a bit smaller. Still need to work the mouth and ear, and finish the shape of the forehead/rest of the skull.

Hey all. My 6 months of hardwork is over, and the result is here for all to see (and to say "what a piece of s***).
Anywho, technique was 3D, lenght is 6½ minutes, formats are WMV and MOV.
I will not boast the animation no more, you do the math.

Im more than happy to recieve some feedback. It wont change the way that animation is, but it will improve the future projects.

Can the board administrator/moderrator please upload the missing icons to the server.
Nothing serious, but I hate watching those error icons when IE cant load the picture.

Well, today I made this really simple midi, and I need some c&c.

I was bored so I did these.... abstract art thingies. I think they look kinda cool.

Critic and comments would be nice.

[Edit by Andail; I prefer descriptive titles ]

I would like to have some c&c from this midi I did today.
http://www.dsfilms.net/AGS/Scout_Rock.mid


I made the music for the The Scout's Story game. Some kind of a action... orsmthinglikethat..

[The Story]

The Scout's story.

The Story
You are Brian Howley, a soldier in the Allied forces in WW2. You hate the war and want to get home as soon as possible. After too many of your friends has fallen in the battlefields, you make the final choice and do anything it takes to leave the battlefields, and go to home. Brian is no wuss, he just dont like war.

The basic plot in the game is going to combine tradegy of the war (you are going to need to shoot things in the game!!)  with hilarious (?!) comedy into a fine mix. And I am hoping that everyone will enjoy this.  



Progress so far
Very little is done by the moment. The begining of the game where the enemy attacks first time is complete. And I have few ideas in my pocket that I am not sure will I make them to be in the game, so somekind of a progress prosents are not easy to say at this moment. But I will update this time to time.



Screenshots
Well not actually screenshots, just made bmps to png files
Ingame shots coming later





Animation when picking something up, in the up direction

More coming soon!

---------------------------
Illegal exception
---------------------------
An exception 0xC0000005 occured in ACWIN.EXE at EIP = 0x0040D2DB ; program pointer is +6, ACI version 2.56.627, gtags (0,19)

AGS cannot continue, this exception was fatal. Please note down the numbers above, remember what you were doing at the time and notify CJ on the Tech forum.

(Global script line 50)


Most versions of Windows allow you to press Ctrl+C now to copy this entire message to the clipboard for easy reporting.
---------------------------
OK  
---------------------------

And here is the global script line 44 - 55:  

function on_mouse_click(int button) {
 // called when a mouse button is clicked. button is either LEFT or RIGHT
 if (IsGamePaused() == 1) {
   // Game is paused, so do nothing (ie. don't allow mouse click)
 }
 else if (button==LEFT) {
   ProcessClick(mouse.x, mouse.y, GetCursorMode() );
 }
 else {   // right-click, so cycle cursor
   SetNextCursorMode();
 }
}

And all of the scripts were made by the program itself.
And the error message came when I clicked the hero char with any mouse modes (except walk)

Tried to make midi music, and it ended up like this, quite crap as I say.

Some C&C would be welcome!

Okey, I was bored and I wanted to do something simple with a tracker, and here is the resault:

http://personal.inet.fi/koti/arska.huuskonen/temp/hevi.zip

The solo quitar sucks big time. Very repeating, cant make better, I am a dork, some help with the solo quitar would be nice.

Is it possible to make a Role Playing Game like Ultimas were using AGS, if it is, what is the things that might be difficult to make.

Ok, heres a screen from John Flankberg , and there is a port which leads to the Mafioso's house. C&C please.

Here:
www.dsfilms.net/roskaa/BassoWalk.zip

It is in zip file cuz its a .it file and you need a Winamp or some tracker program to open it.

C&C please.

[Plot:]

Ok, I decided to post this now. I will add more screenshots as soon as I have enough intrest to do so. I am moving all my energy to this project. And hoping that it will turn out fine. I have about 25-30 % done. I am not sure about when is this going to be finished cuz i have some ideas that might take longer and some that I might not put into the game at all.

Let's hear more about the game then:



Plot:
Your name is John Flankberg, you are an agent in DPD (Deron Police Department). A body is being found in a trash pile in refuse tip and you got the case.
As you investigate the case you will find out that this wasn't just about some murder. I can say that this is going to be really cliche game, but there is no cult behind the actions in city of Deron.
Ideas from the game are mostly taken from another detective games. Well, there are lot's of my own ideas but still.



Screenshots: (More coming... sometime soon..)

A screen from the your boss office.

Another shot from the DPD.

A shot from the murdered man's office

From the docks.

Other
Comments everyone. And keep an eye on this post cuz I will add the shots here.

What do you think of the game? Got it working with ScummVM. Really fine game. Played at my friends when I was a kid and have tried to find it ever since.

Well now I got it. And it still rules! The graphics are sooo sweet and the whole game is funny.

General discussion about the STS1 and STS2. And if you have tested the STS3D please, leave comments about it too.

Hey, are there any good trackers or other music makers over there?

I need musics and if you think you could support me with some music, send some PM. I will contact you shortly!
