Some C&C, please. Spent time that should've been used studying for this baby.

Is there any way to convert an integer into a string? Would you just use good old = or is there a specific command for it?

I've recently posted a game idea I had, involving a detective, and I started wondering:

What makes the detective such a suitable character for an adventure game?


I believe I've come up with an answer.


A lot of adventure games entail mysteries, and the detectives are the ones expected to do the mindwork, as well as be prepared for physical combat.

So, if the main character in a movie is a detective, they have a higher chance of finding the criminal.

I think a similar concept is shown in many adventure games.

Post your thoughts and opinions on the matter.

This is just an idea I've had for a game. The only thing I've done for it so far is a single sprite of the main character.
Some C&C would be useful.

Undying Time I


John had it all.
Born to rich parents, he lived like a prince...
Until one day, when the seagulls were left speechless...

He vanished.

With being the primary inheritor of his parents' fortune,
Why would he commit suicide?

Apparently he was quite amiable and friendly...
I doubt it was a full-fledged murder.

And yet...it happened. Right in front of their noses.

I know I'm still an amateur at detective work...
I'm young, they say, inexperienced, they say.

This must be my oppurtunity to shine.

"Kawk?"

I'm going to go, Wanda, and be the best damn detective out there!

Ignore the apparent detective cliche. Once the game is out you'll understand why.

The game is divided into three parts, explained breifly below:

1.) The Dead Don't Speak

Explore the McGiniccole residence, searching for anything everyone else may have missed.

2.) An Abyss of Perpetuity

Souls shouldn't wander into the third dimension...

3.) Wound Too Tight

I can't really tell you about this one without ruining the game.

As you can see, I've got most of the storyline taken care of. I think it's a decent idea, I've had the gist of it for a while now actually.

Now, critique time.

I copied an mp3 into my game directory, then rebuilt the VOX files, but it gets an error:
"Unable to add the file:***.mp3 because it's an LFN".
Is this a bug in the editor? If so, is there a patch for it?

Thanks.

Fixed. Yaay.
