Well, I guess I am sorry for using text effects and bmps but that file, you didn't have to download it. It was there because I could not get the regular images up. I wasn't even at my place to do so, and I stated that. And if you think I am so annoying then don't go in in my threads. Then you won't have to worry about it.
I was just looking for someone's advice, yours is ok. I understand you are trying to help me get more positive feedback, but I ain't exactly the ags genius or know it all of the internet. Give me a break. And as far as freeware programs go, I have a few that I use. I use Graphic's Gale for the animation in the short little demo. All I am saying is that you didn't have to do anything in this thread. You didn't have to download shit.

I just got this new animation done and I am impressed. My guy is pretty small but the animation is great. The only problem is that I don't have the images cause I on my friends comp but I got the demo game up last week(I just noticed).

Stated it right there.

RAP, we don't promote warez on this site.

Oh I thought you meant I copied it from something.

lol that's preety funny. I could have a sequel called Fuck Quest 2  

Must be the walkspeed and sprites that do the work...

What's that supposed to mean?

EDIT: Here it is...

Tell me if ya like the new animation.

Yeah I just want to know how to post a image that animates when it loads up. I was wondering how to do this because I have a new sprite I made and I want to show it but not post frame after frame. Any help would be appreciated!

Hey Lazy Z, I respect your idea. I think I am going to use it too. I a very unexpierienced with scripting and art. I have the AGS plug-in that makes snow, rain and fog, well at leastI thinit make fog. I tried using it but once again my mind sucks. I think I am going to steer off the whole Silent Hill genre. I am thinking of more like running and solving puzzles. So far, this project has had some supply & demand. I can't really decide if I should continue with this, since the scripting is pretty heavy. Well I g2g right now cause I am about to play Warcraft II.

Thanks ya see I appreciate that! Well I guess I will wait until someone else tells me something bad or good.

The whole point of doing this was because of what you said just now, It just seems people don't want to participate at the moment.

8cm: First of all I didn't put anywork into this because I was just showing people an example. And the "Vote for what you like" system would be cool but I think you too low for its standards. I made the graphics in MS-PAINT and, like I said at the top, did not put any work into it!

Alright then,  guess this wasn't a good idea...

Ok, I thought of this like a weekago. I made a small cartoon that don't even last a minute. I will post it up soon. I thought, hey, maybe I can start a new activity. My idea is to make a small or large cartoon, and post it up fr everyone to see. After you post it, people vote for which one they like. you really can't win anything except appreciative comments but I think its fun and its good if you want to kill some time. Please respond.
Thank you!
EDIT: Here it is. My cartoon. http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/CaRtOoN1.zip

Yes Steve I will drop the end and have the title Torn Souls. I know it was a bit disappointing but I haven't really art skills and programming either. I will be working on this...

Adam100: the black screen is supposed to scare you but since I have no sounds on my computer I can't have screams. I made this test game on my friend's comp and they happen to live next to us but, the little button on the disk drive doesn't work so I couldn't upload sounds.

SlamGrinder: No, lol. It is very simple. I was using the tv plug part to test the flashlight thing for AGS. After like 2 days the damn thing still wouldn't work. You interact with the couch and you will get the swiss army knife. Use it on the door and you will win. Not too exciting. I also tried seeing if I could make a gun and be able to equip it and shoot a test monster. It did not go well at all. I am gonna practice the script. Well I g2g so PeaCe out!

Here is the link to the test game. I AM STILL WORKING ON THE BETTER TEST GAME, so please don't be posting things like its too short or you didn't put enough work into it.

I previously stated that I am changing the title and I am calling it Torn Souls : The Search. The town in the game is the town I live in. The test game that I am uploading to 2dadventure.com, is simple and is going to disappoint some people. I am considering on redoing it and working on the main char's walkview. I tried The GIMP, I didn't like it. I don't plan on using a lens flare because the whole game is in the dark. The flashlight will have a lens flare, that's about it. Items and other shiny stuff will gleam when the flashlight is shining on them. I am not using SH screenshots or photorelistic screens. I am trying to improve on my art and scripting so I might just put out a short game. I have Silent Hill­­ 2 and I have been playing it. I think I am going to not use the mouse and try to use the keyboard, to make it seem like you have a controller. I am trying to find a sound studio so I can make some scary sounds. Because the button on my modem to open the disk tray is broken, I can't use my cd with all my sounds. A link to a sound studio or something like it would be good. In Silent Hill 2, there is a civil war prison that you visit. in the women's restroom, there is a closed stall. When you knock on it, nothing happens. When you go to the door to leave, you hear banging sounds and a madman screaming. I am looking forward to making the game scary while entertaining, a most difficult task for a first game. I am having problems with puzzles. Say I want the player to collect 3 coins and put them in coin slots in a certain order except, there is 5 coin slots. Now I want the player to be able to take the coin out and put it in but, I can't seem to think how I will manage having the coin in the coin slot after you use it. Wow, im confused. Well, any ideas or shit like that?
HANG ON!
I just thought of what I forgot, I am concerned about managing the amount of monsters for each difficulty and I can't think of how I am gonna make monsters respawn or stay dead. Thinking of this made my brain explode and I started rethinkin this Survival/Horror thing. I think that AGS can't handle weapons shooting, like carrying a shotgun and bein able to shoot something. I said "Maybe I can use the If sprites are touching each other script command." cause I read something about this in someone elses thread. Can I do this?

I came up with a title, I think it sucks but oh well. I called it Torn Souls : The Search (TS TS). Sucks don't it. I am having some big problems with the script.

Ok, when you come in, the door locks behind you and you can't get out. Even the window won't open. So using very few resources, you must find a way out of the room. Ok, heres my problem...
When you check the hole in the wallpaper, you get a item called TV PLUG. In the room by the television, there is a cord, and it is cut at the end, but the TV is still on. Now when you use the TV PLUG on the cord, the TV will stay on and you will be able to put something through the keyhole in the door. The problem is, you have nothing to use. After searching the couch you will get the SWISS ARMY KNIFE. You use it to leave, but before you leave, the phone rings. A woman is on the phone. Jason questions why she called him. She then says that Jason called her and yells at him. Then she says his name, and Jason asks how she knew his name, but she hangs up. Then he picks the lock, and leaves...
MY PROBLEMS:
1.) When you look out the window, it shows a car in the lake, then a very quick scene of a black screen with red glowing eyes. On this screen, its supposed to play a sound, but I get an error saying that it can't play it. I made it in Sound Recorder on Windows.
2.) Jason walks like a wannabe trying to crip walk and no matter how many times I try to fix it, it still doesn't look right.
3.) It's too easy. I can't make it any harder than it is. I was considering making a weak spot on the east wall and when you knock it down, A puzzle box is there, and when you solve it, you get string. Then you use it on the pizza box to take cheese and stick it to the end of the string. Then, you use it on the hole where the TV PLUG is, then you can reach it and grab the TV PLUG.
I think I want to change the room around, or add different items and more puzzles.
4.) My friend Jacob isn't helping me with this anymore, so I have no artwork help, no programming help, no nothing. I have no support except from fellow AGS-ers.

Please, anything or ideas or whatever you want to say to me, please e~mail me at Xpac3491@aol.com or post it here. I really need some help with this.
Thank you very much!

Yes, Sergio I am going to change the name to uhh... actually I can't think of a name. lol im stupid as hell. Well can anyone give me a hint?

Your right Eggie.
I was trying to make it look like she was looking back at someone while she was walking, but I guess it didn't work, lol.

Well in my signiture that I had last time, it said
1.) Neva let a nigga know your business.
I haven't stated a name in any part of my signiture. I also said that it wasn't pointed at anyone. So, you tell me.  

Yes ScottDoom, me and my friend are working on a test game where programming is at a high stake. the room is in white and a puzzle is on a clock. You will use it time from time to go back in time and to go forward into time. This practiced my animation skill and now I am working on how to use the flashlight program for AGS. So far, its not been too good but, I am working on it.

I am glad to see that some people are satisfied with my game and that I should continue with it. More support would be great, or any ideas anyone likes might be used in my game. I need some help for tricky puzzles. I have one where a door has a code and the clue to it is...
26 letters, numbers too.
RING RING RING!
Someone called to you.
Pick it up and look carefully,
At each little button you see.
26 letters, numbers too.
Which 4 seem right to you?
B,Z,J,D 4 letters for PASS.
Put it in right cause you only got one chance...

I think its okay. This is the puzzle for EASY mode. If you haven't guessed it now I will tell you that its actually four numbers on a phone. if you have one, you just use the number for the letters. Well I got 2 go so thank you all for your contributions to my game.
Corey

EDIT: Whew, finally just got done with the picture.

This is the test room. In it, the door will lock and you have to search carefully to get out. I am still having trouble animating the main char though, and my website I have been trying to get up on the net hasn't been sucessful since I got shitty dial up. It always freezes up aol when I go on freewebs, and I don't like geocities. But anyway, how do you all like it? The black line at the top is the cord to a broken ceiling lamp and the light blue you see is electricity. This little problem is the key to getting out. I won't tell you the answer though. I am going to make this room into a small test game (maybe) and if it is small enough I will upload it onto 2dadventure.com.
So far so good with our storyline and storyboard. Since I am good with writing and my friend is good at drawing I will direct the storyboard and contol most of the flexible points of my game, while my friend Jacob does some artwork and helps with the story and programming and all that good stuff. Morales are high for this project, well for me anyways. I have been thinking about the difficulty changing on how you do. I think I want the player to choose the difficulty level and then have the game go on from there. I know that there will be 3 levels and since this is a practice for me I thought that since 3 difficulties, means learning varibles and more advanced scripting to change the difficulty, depending on which one you choose. I have been thinking of delaying my other game that I haven't finished yet, since I lack my computer. I am using my friends right now and resources are very limited since I have no music cause I don't have my FruityLoops. Oh, for all of you who need a good music/sound maker, search FruityLoops on Google. It might still be on the net, being that I downloaded it long, long ago. Well I am going to go work on my game some more so peace out!
Corey

EDIT(again): Crying Flower offers uploading service doesn't it? I tried uploading my demo game, Cosmo Colatteral's Adventure, but that was like 3 months ago. Anyone know if that place still offer that?

Thank you for the link Darth.
Yes, I barely have any idea of how that difficulty thing will work but I think this is a great way of practicing the AGS script commands. I might even release this game as a test of how good I can make a game.

EDIT: I tried MoHo and I don't like it.
