I could post some, but main problem is that recently people outside Estonia weren't able to see any pics from Estonian servers. I dunno if it's changed now, but fact that you DO see my avatar makes me think It's repaired now.
Which screens excactly? Guy on my avatar is starring for my A Dreamwalker game (a bit out of date because It's stopped at the moment) game. You could check out a BG I posted into critics lounge and my background tutorial (AGS's resources page).

intri..what? (non-sufficent english language). Well, it is from my game. Still - what does that word mean?
DGMacphee: Had a chat with yer' aunt - didn't like me.
<sob!>  :'(

If "simple" stands for amount of controls, yeah.
If "simple" stands for easiness of completing the game, hell no! It's always screwed up. Too non-solvable puzzles or just too many ways to die.

Actually, if it's possible to die in an adventre game, there's usually 1001 ways to it.
(See: KGB, The Adventures of Willy Beamish, Space Quest 1, King's Quest 1-3, etc)

Hm. I've been out of ideas lately and still suffering under fact that I still haven't donated anything that may called a "game" to this community. My computer is waaaay over "Best before" date, too, so I can't do any 3D and my "A DreamWalker" project is on hold.

So I'm selling myself now. Actually, giving myself away for free. Idea is following:

I'd like to team up with someone on game making.
I don't have to put up an idea right now, so I want just join some project. Anyone needs a BG artist? Animator? Humanoid idea generator? Or a lousy tracker? I'm here. And offers are welcome. My drawing (I think), compared to this community, is average/mediocre/etc.

If anyone needs a hand, and I like the offer/idea/whole thing, I'm glad to join. Post something here, send me private messages or an e-mail.

Yay, hello ShockingBlue.
But what is this crying about drawing skills already?
Drawing means you gotta have at least 1 of following things:

1) A digital camera
2) A scanner combined with skill to waste paper
3) Long practice with getting mouse to respond however you want it to

Personally, I started drawing at the age of 5 or 6, copying Walt Disney's characters. Me and my friend used felt tip pens to draw them to paper. Then sold these papers to every kid at home playground. Idea was simple - make yer hand wet, put drawing onto wet spot, wait few secs and remove. A tattoo! And first self-earned cash. And the skills came too...

If anyone wants to make his first million, just ask me. Have lots of ideas....  

Does it really matter?

Of course not! That's the first law of democracy. We can yell or arses off and no-one gives a damn about what we say. So we can blabber forever here.

there's still a rivalry between the US and Russia?

I opened window and looked towards east. Didn't notice any nuke mushrooms... Or is it just my bad sight?

All the crap about who found america

So Vikings discovered America. So America is a viking colony. Russians are vikings in long line too. All russian names are ancient viking names (Jelena, Oleg, Igor, etc). Russia was ruled by a Viking king once.

Now, mathematic dudes, think: if A = B and A = C how are B and C related?

MrColossal for artwork c&c. Always there.

I'm sure CJ has a lot of not-yet-implemented-suggestions in his pocket for the day when he becomes out of ideas. And I'm damn sure about that.

But yea, bridge jumping sounds reasonable. And this is where we'll be finally tested. Only the pure souls will have belief. Only loyal ones perform the jump. Who's with me?

Hail AGS!
*splash!*

glub-- gwuys, i gwot cwarried awway, uh?

Smugglers City? Reminds me Dune...
Nice artwork!

Making rooms in 3d is damn easy thing to do. Making characters - not. At least if you model everything by yourself.

Is it very stupid to ask for a possibility to have  translation text file for AGS itsself?
Like, some helpful people could translate AGS into their language, which encourages program use and amateur gamemaking?

[Surprise! A cleaning was performed in your messy computer! Merry christmas!]

sooo easily offended, aren't we?
I'd understand, if AGS displayed a message:
Surprise! A cleaning was performed in your messy computer! Merry christmas!
...and formatted whole hard disk...

Actually, I think that raping AGS, the joke, CJ and marcus is enough already.

Go get a life.

What an idea! Do they sell one at "Best Buy"?  

When I learned at English class that the United State people where referred to simply as 'Americans' I thought it was quite unfair and it really hurted me... It doesn't affect me anymore but I still think it's unfair

United States of What, then? Uruguay?
Habits are infectious. Call yourself an american, make your friends and family do teh same, and soon the world will follow.

*laughing*
Okay, I give up!  

Actually, I'm a bit afraid that people would take all the crap I'm talking too seriously. Peace!

No, MrColossal, I told only about the way russian people are show in this and these movies. Of course whole movie was worth a laugh - but that's the whole idea of entertainment.

And I'm just an ordinary male human being. Don't expect me to pilot a plane into some big building...
I can think or say whatever, hate americans, mongols or chinese, etc, were still all just people, but until people don't do actual bad deeds, noone cares anyway.

- I have nothing against you, scummbuddy or whoever in this forum from usa -  and i don't think that a word in a passport or on id card makes me automatically hate or dislike someone. We're just ants in a nest of 6 million ants. And have to learn to get along.

This forum gives me opportunity to discuss whatever with other people, so I do it. Even if I'm really wrong, I always liked arguing and I think I'm normal enough to never get *really* upset or take things really personally. It's educative and entertaining. Maybe I'll be an advocate one day, who knows  

Oh. but okay, I won't post anything anymore, not to be selfish.

So, after everything, we just need more cultural exchange programs. Especially me.

P.S. My way to think is a bit military indeed, because my nephew, uncle and grandfather were (nephew IS) russian MIG pilots and whole faimily is a bit militay. So we all have grown up in belief that USA is enemy and evil. Though I didn't got that drill very much, because soviet union broke when i was 8 years old, but there's still something... in blood.

[supposed]

I'm talking for myself, and actually, I'm pretty ignorant and stubborn guy, so don't bother complaining or getting offended or trying to tell me I'm wrong. Complete ignorance and being non--tolerant is supposed to be wrong so I know perfectly what's WRONG with myself!

If I wasn't creative, I'd call myself stupid...
But as you see, I'm stubborn enough to post anyway...  

My personal disgust against USA is not connected to this forum, its members, etc. It's more like national thing, I grew up in Soviet Union and I think that hidden rivalry between these two groups of world never ends.

Just today, I looked at the american movie "Armageddon". The way they tried to impersonate russian cosmonaut (it's astronaut for you) made me angry and sick. Do they think that people on this side of earth really look, talk and act like that? Maybe it is only the media that poisons souls? Whatever.
Only Americans could believe that this guy in the movie is really related so someone from here! And there's lots of US movies made during cold war, talking about those... oh hell.

Most accurate (not COMPLETELY, but yeah, close) things in US culture (i'm right about them) I've seen were Tom Clancy's books.

after reading messages on page 2:

to MillsJRoss: "Amen!"
to DGMacphee: "Amen!"

after finishing rest of the thread:
Oh guys, what's the point discussing something so pointless here? Do something useful instead, like an adventure games or something...
Oops, I'm guilty too now...

format c:

1) Monopols and forcing are very strongly related. U really can't say that the land to Mcdonald's was sold without any pressure. Whatever the pressure was (too much money not to resist offer, fact that our country has 20000 soliders against US's 18 million (if I'm not mistaken) or whatever else). It just is that way.

2) I really can't imagine that city council saying: Go to hell, americans, we don't need your high colesterol crap here, find another fool and historical place to spoil! This could be a scandal, especially because americans sleep always one eye open.

3) Actually I'm worried. about this NATO thing - these US guys are really dumb if they think that they can safely set up their forces only about 180km away from Russian Federations border. And this is totally offtopic - or maybe not? Americanization is spreading too fast and may cause disasters. I really can't wonder what could happen if NATO really builds bases here and at least one russian nut or maybe just someone drunk (there's  living 1,4 million people in my country, 40% russians) sneaks into one of them and bombs it or even just makes some mess. What then? We'd be hunted down under flag of "war against terrorism"?

- Wondering all the time if you're not offending someone is idiotic.

I agree, no doubt. But this won't work when discussing something with american people. And this really angers. It seems that beating patriotism and absolutely dumb belief into  country and its ruler(s) in USA into people's brain is 100 times more intense than it ever was in Communistic Soviet Union. This is sick. Open your eyes, burger people! (Well, I followed quoted text - and I'm sure this thread becomes into "americans beating InCreator" one - so It there will be proof about what i just said)

So - you don't own the world, americans. Remember it all the time, even if it's only a some stupid crap at the forum, mistake with thinking everyone should know what's "Best Buy".

Hey, America means a damn huge piece of land and foreigners mean usually smaller countries, so ignorance at this level is supposed to be absolutely okay and part of our civilization. Smaller always trying to make bigger noise - doesn't it even exist in America itsself (afroamericans,feminists,all kinds of believers,nut people,gays,etc).

Personally, I'd be grateful, if someone bombs that large McDonalds restaurant that makes my hometown's most beautiful place, Gates of Viru (part of our "old town" or however you call it) look like a flea market.

There's nothing wrong with globalization IMHO, though americani-zation doesn't make me happy at all.

Instead of spreading shops where crap food and cheap toys from china are sold worldwide, people could consider doing same with public libraries or some else useful thing like that.
And somewhere where it's needed. Africa, perhaps?

But maybe it's just me and/or my country and recent events here. We're discussing allying with NATO pretty soon and US bases, with a american solider standing in a gate with large army boots and lazily chewing gum - doesn't sound like a thing I would like to see on this sacred ground I'm used to call my motherland.

I have no tolerance at this kinda stuff and I'm happy that ancient roman guys invented forums so I could digitally make myself clear. But who cares, right?
