After being replaced by a cartoonish clown, Guybrush Threepwood is spit out by the business and becomes a weird wino. After years he meets Vince Twelve in the subway and gets 5 bucks for not talking anymore about the "good old times" and a role in Resonance as a weird wino.

As NsMn is right, and the idea is old, I make another entry with an even older idea.
If it's not allowed to post more then one, take it as a contribution to the glorious community.

Thank you.. coin. 

And now for something completely different -
the next animation competition.

We (Mr Matti and me) just tested it with DirectX 9 and 800x600 pixels and it worked fine on a 2x2 GHz with a bad video card (sis mirage 3)! There is no slowdown.

We used 6 objects with the PxPos -3 to 2 with the factors 1, 0.9375, 0.875, 0.75 and 0.5 in order to have each object scrolling with half the speed of the previous one which creates the effect seen in the picture above.

With every object exept one it works fine, we didn't succeed to get it do what we want and now we are close to getting mad. It seems to be not affected by the lines of code that we think are the right ones...
Honestly we have problems to fully understand that crazy move-with-scrolling-speed-in-opposite-direction-than-scrolling-math-thing.

We uploaded the game folder here. It would be nice if you could take a look at the script and tell us what obvious mistake we made.

Hi everyone!

Thanks for the module, Ali.

I'm afraid this module is pretty simple and just moves objects around. To create parralax with large background images would require very big objects, which might be too much for the AGS engine.

On the other hand, I haven't tested the D3D version much, so larger objects may prove to be less of a barrier in the future.

So something like this will probably not be possible?



Did anyone test it with 800x600 and large objects yet?
What is the D3D version? Of AGS?
