The Road Warrior?

I don't think AGS has to be retro.  I love seeing how AGSers have expanded its functionality beyond its original intended scope.

If it could handle 3D, I'd be interested in using that feature. 

I've used 3DS Max, Z Brush, Poser, and Sketchup and would say that Sketchup has been far and away the easiest to learn.  It doesn't produce photo-realistic renderings as I initially desired but I've learned to do a lot of post work in photoshop to achieve a style I find pleasing.  Sketchup also has a terrific library of models available that can be tweaked to fit your specific purposes.

American Psycho?

Correct.

Okay, next up:

Boy, it looks like "legend" again.

Cool thread.

Here's an animation I've working on for an action scene in my upcoming game:

Thanks guys.  Declaring my DynamicSprites at the top of the room script outside of the room load function seems to have done the trick.

I'm trying to implement a puzzle that involves sorting some objects that are initially randomly oriented.  The code below was intended to initialize the objects orientation but instead of replacing the object's sprite with a rotated sprite, the objects get the famous blue cup sprite.  Any suggestions for what I'm doing wrong?  Thanks.

Code: ags

function room_Load(){
  DynamicSprite* sprite[19];
  for(int i=0;i<19;i++){    
    sprite[i] = DynamicSprite.CreateFromExistingSprite(object[i].Graphic);
    int starting_rotation=Random(3);
    if (starting_rotation!=0){
      sprite[i].Rotate(starting_rotation*90);
      object[i].Graphic=sprite[i].Graphic;      
      sprite[i].Delete();  
    }    
  }
}

Glad to see you're resurrecting that blog but sad to see all the older content disappear.  Any chance of that being restored?

Very interesting new post.

Babes in Toyland?

Shock Corridor?

Oh, c'mon.  Clearly 1982 was the best year in movie history.

Legend is a movie that never fails to disappoint but I keep coming back to it every few years hoping that I'll enjoy it this go around.  It does have a lot going for it but somehow never quite adds up to more than the sum of its parts.

Legend?

The 13th Warrior?

You got it.

Neither of those but maybe I'm not reading your mind so well.

It was a bit of a stab in the dark for me, looking for a film on Elya Baskin's filmography that might be in B&W or have a B&W sequence. 

Thirteen Days?

Nailed it.
