By the way he looks pretty happy for the only survivor of a terrible shipwreck

Isn't that kinda obvious Ralph? He's happy because he survived

*Pablo congrats himself of being mr. Know-it-all again*

Lol, well if you look at it that way

Looks good, good luck.

Yes I'd say so too, keep the white at the beginning of the cave, but remove the dark blue pixels in the sky.

Now a different thing about the same thing.
Sprites with transparent around it.
So lets say youve got a sprite with a huge transparent space around it. Will that be bigger than when a small transparent space around it?

Here I added a simple sky, a very simple one. But then you'll get a sea behind it. So my point is that your one is good, maybe you could make a bit land behind. If its supposed to be a small river that is.

Ive have it too sometimes but mostly that is because some other program is using sound. like winamp or something.

Yeah it looks really good, the room is a bit empty though. But still it is real moody, I like it .

Run dxdiag then go to the sound tab. there should be the name of your soundcard somewhere. dxdiag can be run from command prompt with the command : dxdiag (duh) or run it the same way with run option in the start menu. (at least i think its called that, since ive got a dutch windows version.)

Looks great, whats more to say

Okay thanks another question out of my head

Hey ive got a question.
Someone in the forum here said that png and bmp are almost the same quality but png takes much less space. So my question is: does the difference in file size makes a  big difference for my ags game's filesize. In other words is using png better than using bmp.

After searching for Icon in the manual :

Custom icon
If you wish, you can use your own custom icon when you build a Windows EXE file. To do this, simply place your icon in your game's folder, and name it USER.ICO. Then, load the editor, make sure it is set to generate a Windows executable, and save the game.
Your icon must be standard 32x32 pixels in 16-colour. If it is any other size or colour depth, the editor will give an error.

NOTE: The icon must be a proper Windows .ICO file, not just a renamed BMP file. Icon editors, such as AX-Icons from http://www.axialis.com, will convert it for you.

You can also have a custom icon for the Setup program generated. To do so, create your icon as above but name it setup.ico in the game folder.

You can use Axialis Icon workshop, heres the download link:
http://www.axialis.com/download/iw.html
its a 30 day trial but I don't think you'll need 30 days to make an icon

Yeah I agree with [...] Some things look  a bit weird. But changing those colours and adding some more shading should do the trick.

Yay I'm downloading now Can't wait to play

Yeah I know, but thanks anyway

Hey Hey people, Ralph here. Here's a new update



Outside in the city, this is a part of the intro.



Here's the updated Phil's Hospital Room.

And this was the old one, with the old phil character.

And here he is, the one the only THàˆ PRIEST!



And now the technical update:
Update : 30th of March 2005.
-All Phil frames are imported.
-An enemy is totally imported.
-Security Guard Jeffrey is totally imported.
-Ingame GUI, improved and working on a volume adjustment at the moment.
-New textures are added.
-The Priest model is complete.
-The intro has been improved, except for a tricky part. That still need working on.

About the voice actors:
One voice actor has a character now (LargoPredator -> the priest). The others I still need to give to the other voice actors.

Other stuff:
Well if all goes well a demo can come out within 1.5 to 2 months.

Well that's all for now I guess, if I think of something I forgot I'll post it

Best Wishes
Ralph S. -AkA- Redrum89

Wow that's really cool .
Man if I were in your possition I wouldn't know what to do either.
But I must say, selling LITN isn't such a bad idea .

Are the images & descriptions of these characters available somewhere?
That would be good for knowing what kinds of voice are needed.

Good thinkin . There are some screenshots here but i'll give some new one too

Okay so here's some info about the characters:

Phil Nathan, a normal guy, hasn't got a real accent. He is a bit depressed though. He is 27 years old, got a boring desk job in the city.
Has problems with his girlfriend (see depressed ),



Rafael Hakson, an engineer, sounds abit like a grunt from half life 1. He's a brave man, is 25 years old. He has got a girlfriend.



James Savage, a doctor, hasn't got a real accent either, he's the cowardly guy of the lot, He is 31 years old. He's got a wife, and a daughter on the way.



The Priest Unknown to you that is , a priest .... , has got a bit russian accent, hes a bit like the priest of ravenholme in half life 2, hes about 40\50 years old, a bit of a aggresive guy. Likes to kick some HH creatures ass .



Mr. Turner, Phil's boss (small role), he's got some temper problems sometimes, he fortunatly likes Phil. He is about 50/55 years old. Has a wife and a son.



Security Guard Jeffrey (small role, for now), he's a normal afro/american guy, hes about 25 years old. Has a wife and a daughter.
He's normally a funny guy, but is deadly serious when it all happens.
