Welcome to the AGS Community. Fun to see that you work with bryce (me2) :p .. I'm 8 years old, so your not the youngest around. Have fun!

But you should´ve used the purpre tentacle, for contrast... Furthermore, green is too good guy for causing a massive extinction, IMO.

It's the prehistoric tentacle.. Through the evolution it became purple. And also, it now has good coverage for the grass... to kill all dinosaurs.

well, im at school at the moment so I can't type out of my head the code precise but maybee this is an idea.

Global Script repeatley execute :
set a line in there to set global value 1 to the x-coordinate of character1.

set a line in there to set global value 2 to the x-coordinate of character2.

set a line in there to set global value 3 to the y-coordinate of character1.

set a line in there to set global value 4 to the y-coordinate of character2.

after that... use set the following :
if "global value 1 " - "global value 2" = >10;
       // type here what happens when collision is there

after that... use set the following :
if "global value 3" - "global value 4" = >20;
       // type here what happens when collision is there

So this runs everytime a check if character 1, is from a certain distance from the other character... if it's within the numbers 10 and 20 then your code should be runned.

Maybee someone else can turn my idea into script... or I will look at it when I get home. GL!

What the heck??? Where do they even get the money from??? I only get $3,03 every hour... ok ok.. im 16, and work in the supermarket.. but still.. 16 dollar! That's much! But well... I think it's more important that you like your job, than to have a good loan, although more money is always welcome

Hmm... This is the first time I'm joininh the Photoshop Phriday... so, here is mine. It's the real reason why dinosaurs extincted!

Monday next week, I'm buying a scanner, never had one before, and I was wondering, is it better to draw my drawing with pencil, or fineliner? Ohw, and another question. I'm using naturefriendly paper, that is grey, mostly... does that have any influence on the scanning quality? Btw.. most of my work are just sketches that need to be coloured in like photoshop.

hey there are 2 guys with hats on. Is that me, strongsad?? Because my avatar is strongsad, so I feel a strong sad feeling coming up that I'm too in the game

Ok this is my first edit, of someone elses work, and I'm a photoshop n00b, so I used the l3NS FL@IR!!

I edited the picture by colouring it, and I added some shadowing to the hair, and the back of the girl.

Wow, penguinx! This is really Super!! Can you maybee point me to a tutorial to learn isometric pixel-art drawing?? I want to learn this too. I look very much forward to your game, but I'd also like to say.. take your time and do not try to hurry or anything. Good games always take time... well.. my games take time, and are bad... but that's another story So could you give me the weblink to the place where you learned this drawing?

the link to the demo, of the scorpiorus tutorial go's to here :

I had bought this game, Grim Fandango like 2, or 3 weeks ago, and I haven't completed it yet. Didn't had much time to play either, but it sure is a good game. But as far as I can tell... you should only make a sequel if it's neccesary for the story. Like there are some unfinished clues... and otherwise, leave it alone, and keep it holy.

[The Longest Journey]

Hmm.. Interesting. I played The Longest Journey and Syberia and I don't think that these girls were made for men only. But I think it's mostly because of in real life, Man are mostly the ones who think they can do everything right, and that they are strong. Though the history of women comes from the time that the wife was at work at home, and all the adventures and important jobs were done by men. At the present that has been changed, and women are now also an important factor of society, and they aren't anymore the people that excist to clean and make dinner. So I think that at the present, we will see alot more female-actionhero's, than earlier.

Well, that's atleast what I think

Great game! I'd like some help though.

Spoiler

I've search the doctor's files and used the whistle on the dog but I don't know what to do when the artist walks towards the dog, or with what I've found in the files.

open your notebook, and click with the "2 to heaven" on the book. Now you can do something else when the artist shouts at the dog and the lady!

I know about the copyright, and before I started I mailed Lego, about it, and they said it was ok, as long as it's freeware, and I'm not asking money for it. As for paranoia, I can't change the name, because then I wouldn't credit Lego for it. So this is just going to be a fun, freeware project, and most of all, to learn some new techniques to use with AGS.

to farlander : I should really change some things on my website, cause I kinda cancelled Undeniable. Not in the way, of putting the project away.. but I shortn't the story, from 14 chapters to 4 chapters. and It's going to be a freeware game, cause I figured I wouldn't sell it anyway.

Then I guess it's something british, because I haven't seen any of it here in Holland. Why is Holland such a damned country to not have sockmonkey in their salements   : :'(

Farlander : I'm in the middle of one of my overproductive times, so I'll very soon probably within a week release Sam&Moos, so don't think ill just start projects and then put them aside.

Xackery : Thanks! Although I do not have a digitalcamera . I do make my scenes in lego, and then rebuild them in 3D.

Paranoia : Thanks alot. Can you even imagine... every single block, all give them another texture-colour, aww... I'll just do it like this. Though there will lye some single blocks here and there in the world.

This game is gonna rock. Sockmonkey, is that your own toy, because I never saw a sockmonkey before. Are you also going to merchandise sockmonkeys? Oh, and make t-shirts too!! Sockmonkey YIpPpEEEeE!

Great work!

Clean the flute, by using it on your kitchen. Then go to the psychiatrist, and set your stopper. Then get in hypnose again. When the psychiatrist is gone, search the files.

I can't reach any of the links. They are all broken. I'm dying to see some screenies or even a game of LBA, i think lba, was and is really awesome!

You can do this actually in 2 ways. You can do the code like this to actually let the wait and then display the next message :

 // script for room: First time player enters screen
AnimateCharacter(1,5,1);
DisplayMessage(1)
wait(15);
DisplayMessage(2);


Or you can run a dialog. In this dialog you can for example make another character and then hide it in the room, doesn't matter what graphic. When you called the dialog, for example dialog 1, you can let write the dialog for example like this.


Man1: "Hello"
Man2: "bla bla bla"
Man1: "Have you seen my wife?"
Man2: "bla bla bla..."
Man1: "What you slept with my wife??"
Man2: "bla bla bla"
Man2: "bla bla bla"
wait(15)
Man1: "NO! She's already married to me, you jerk!"
stop


In the example above I made usage of a dialog, wich allows you to also show what the other one says... you can ofcourse also just only show the man on the phone talking by putting a wait between every line he says.

I hope you'll understand what I explaint to you. As for further help, try pressing F1 within AGS, for the helpcontent. Browser through there. You'll find most of your answers in there! GL with AGS!
