I'm currently running Vista 64bit Professional. (I know, its horrible for old games, but it would be nice if AGS could fix this).

Last week I was playing Kings Quest 3 again and realized that the mouse was lagging like a beotch. Basically if you move the mouse greatly, the mouse actually moves, but in a great distance. If you move the mouse a little. THe onscreen cursor doesn't move at all. Today, I just downloaded AGS to get back into Adventure Development once again. I tried out the new Demo, and realized the same problem was persistent in the game.

I don't know if this was brought up before, so please enlighten me once again. Ive been absent from the site for at least a year.

If need be, I can capture a video of my screen to demonstrate the problem.

Are there any templates for characters such as Sam & Max, DoTT, Mi3?

I know your going to say use the search button, I did and all I came up with are dead links to download from. I would've also replied to the latest thread talking about it, but it was locked. So hey, no thread digging nor am I breaking any rules....

So, yeah, does anyone have any of the sprite templates on hand? I can't find any.

Thanks in advance!

Okay, I just finished sketching out the TV Room for the 'Simpsons Adventure' game.


Before I go onto tracing and cell shading, what do you think should be fixed or added. I know the couch needs to be redone mainly because the perspective of it is really unusual. Other than that, what do you think?

EDIT: Digitalized in illustrator. Still have line work and more detail to finish.

Recently my company Vigilant Entertainment was going to carry on the project of remaking 5 Days a Stranger, or specifically, the Defoe Chronicles. During our talk, another team is working on the remake of 5DaS. This team although willing to remake it, is amateur and doing this as a hobby. In return, Yahtzee won't be getting a full commercial remake of his series unless the project dies (In most cases in the modification community, it will).

Our company became worked up and looked forward to Yahtzee giving us a go on the project, but only recently I received the bad news. So I'm here posting today because I want to hear your ideas. Do you have an interesting story that is worthy for AGS material and even for Commercial production? The reason why I'm asking this is because I want to offer someone here who has either worked on an AGS game or have an idea that they want to become reality.

Sell me your ideas and i'll see if anything is worth a full time commercial production. If you wish to keep your idea secret but still want to share, PM them to me. Your ideas will be kept as your own. This means you will become either the IP owner or a writer for the production of the game. I'm truly hoping to see something that will match the Defoe Series style. Thank you.

EDIT: Thanks for all those who PM'd your ideas. We will go over them ASAP and will figure out which one we would like to choose. Again, thanks!
