I downloaded the CMI font from ScummBar (from here), but it doesn't have a outline, so it looks crap when I use it in my game. How do I make an outline???

This is a kitchen I have done for my game....



C&C please!

BTW, I am doing a refrigderator as an object becase you have to open it.

Edit: Yes, I am with stupid, but he seems to have dissapeared....*cough*

I recently got addicted to cheesy nibbles. I found them in the back of a cupboard while making my monthly journey downstairs for food ( ). I found they were still in date, and ate one. It was soooooo tastey! I now have a bottle of them in front of my PC to eat!

But this is a nice change from some of my old food addictions (sherbert lemons, and fruit gums).

Does anyone else have any food adictions they want to share?  

I found a download for some 3D software. Is it best to use 3D, or 2D?

I downloaded a font (ttf) that I want to us ein my game. I am making GUI buttons in PSP (5) and want to use this font. Does anyone know how I can get the font to come up in the font selection when using the text thing?

This is the firts BG in mu new game. What do you think?



C&C is welcome, but I need help on deciding colors (also, I will then smudge the edges of the foreground. )

It is not yet finished, I am going to make the seats "fluffier",and add a moving background to the windows.

Can anyone direct me to a site where I can download a Curse of Monkey Island font?

I have got a 600x400 background, and I want to use a Lucas Arts (MI 1+2) style interface. But I don't want it o cover up my background. Is there a way to unstrech the background?

RickJ gave me a program called QuickC to help me learn C. It is good, but so far, I've only done the tutorial. When I start up the actual QuickC "editor", it says (in a pop-up box); "Please enter peramiters for aplication". It is followed by a box to type something...But I have no idea what! Does anyone know what I can do?

Does anyone know of a tutorial for drawing CMI style backgrounds? I am crap at backgrounds (I'm fine at characters though!). Thanks,

Dan

[RunGlobalScript(4);]

I had an idea of Global Scripts. They could be used in exactly the same way as Global Messages, only they are scripts. In the room script, you could type something like...

RunGlobalScript(4);

...and it would run global script 4 that could be edited in the Global Scripts Menu.

I think this could be useful, because if you had a number of thing that have the same script, for example...

int ran=Random(2);
if (ran==0) {
  DisplaySpeech(GUYBRUSH,"mmm...no!");
  }
else if (ran==1) {
  DisplaySpeech(GUYBRUSH,"My pirate instincts tell me I should keep this to myself");
  }
else DisplaySpeech(GUYBRUSH,"I don't think that's wise");
  }

...that was just an example, but you could use Global Scripts for all sorts of things! I think everyone would benifit from this.

What do you think?  

I have drawn my pics for my new game in GIF format, can AGS only use bmp's and jpg's?

[Does it squash the background, or does it cover some of the background?]

I want to use the Lucas rts SCUMM interface on my game, but I need to know:

Does it squash the background, or does it cover some of the background?

I find it annoying having to keep testing my game to check if my GUI is in the right place, so I am suggesting a GUI preview, where it shows your GUI on a blank background.  

He is a complete and utter TWAT idiot. I LOVE playing my guitar, but even though he has a go at me when I don't go on it, even when I DO go on it, he just sits on a chair and stairs at me playing. I HATE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!  

This is the character for my upcoming game. C&C is welcome.  

[Rodney McNab: The Statue of Kaan]

Hi. I have started to draw the main character for my upcoming game: Rodney McNab: The Statue of Kaan. Believe it or not, he's called Rodney. Anywayz, I can't seem to draw his body too well. This is him so far...


You'll notice that his hand is too big, and His body is not finished.

To get a gist of my style, take a look at this kid I drew once...



ALL help is apprieciated. Thanx

[**EDIT**]

Me and my friend Guy both play the guitar, and are currently making an album called "Out of the Blue" because our kind of music is blues-rock, or that sort of thing.

This is the first song we recorded (using my Zoom PS-02 palmtop Studio). This is a kind of "Beta version" and we still havent got it perfect.

Guy is on lead guitar and is also doing the harmony part, and I'm doing the arpeggio (backing guitar) in the first verse. We also haven't got round to doing the singing!

Here it is:
