If you haven't worked with a computer long enough to know how to create a shortcut, then I hearily suggest you work with the tutorial in the manual/helpfile and look through our other tutorials as you create a tutorial game, to get you into making a game. There are also demo games of the editor that have been made, and those helped me when I was just a beginner, understand things about AGS.  Good luck with your ags career.

AGS Games in Production / Re: Spy Function
Sat 02/07/2005 20:12:07
I really liked your storyline so far, but I went ahead and reworked it, and fixed some spelling mistakes, such as 'realised'. Hope you like it.
-----------
Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to introduce you to Mark Chairguy. All his life he has succeeded in one thing, failure. To some, it would be a meaningless life and although Mark doesn't know it, things are about to change...

One morning, while out for a walk to the local store, an FBI car cuts him off. People in suits jump out, grab him and throw him in the car. Blindfolded, he is taken to a remote location, and once he is unveiled, they realize this has been a case of mistaken identity. It turns out, the real person they were after is already dead. There is no time for the FBI to recover from this unfortunate accident, as they are in trouble, and could use the look-a-like, Mark, in their secret mission inwhich Mark is about to become deeply involved in...
------------
Suggestions...
If you can, I would suggest taking out the lens flare out of the second image.
I would also ask you to reconsider the last name of the main character. It's nice, but a bit too out of the ordinary.
And don't ever get discouraged by people not responding to a post. You go right ahead and release this game when its ready, and people will play it, I guarantee it.

first of all, its called 'agsedit.exe', and second of all, why use the winxp run window? create a shortcut for the program to the desktop or something... but whatever, I hope you get the program working.

you don't know how badly I wanted better sound quality for these videos.

the angle was chosen as rightcenter, last row, just so I could have a plug to keep my camera charged during filming, and so i could get a wide angle. I did make mistakes while filming it, such as zooming out too far/fast but part of that blame goes to me not knowing what was about to happen on stage, such as where the center of attention deserved to be filmed.

all in all, im happy, but I know I can do better.

I believe Chris Heady told me that LucasArts didn't want the script published for the internet, but then again, they didn't want the video on the web.

[under oath]
"I video taped the show, and distributed it on the net all on my own. Chris had nothing to do with it."
[/under oath]  ::)

I'll ask him again if he has the script, but when I asked if he had one I could use for subtitling the movies, he said, "the actors made up their lines a lot, so it wouldn't do much good, but I'll see what I can do."

I haven't again asked for the script since then, but if you still care for one, I'll check.

thats the second time you have posted titles in all caps; please do not do this.

Also, you must read the forum rules, for what belongs in here, and where different questions belong.
#768
repeat after me... "I will do a forum search before asking questions.", and "I will not post non-beginners ags editor questions in this subforum"

here is a good result: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=13962.0

for your first question, i would suggest you have "thought bubbles" and use the player.thinkview for displaying their damage during the battle. Of course, you don' t need to actually have them look like bubbles, but by having a small borderless window pop up above the peoples head may be just what you want.

Yes, Exsecratus, when you were creating your profile, it explicitly states the dimensions for signatures... why did you think you were exempt?

My guess... Better than Ezra... Extra Ordinary

MI Play - Part 3 Posted by: Dalixam | Comments (2)
Scummbuddy has informed me that WMI is now the official host for the Monkey Island play and I am happy to present the third clip to you. This week, did Elaine come to the dock to see Guybrush drown? Will Guybrush get this insatiable need to finish his three trials more quickly? Will Guybrush fare well against... The Machine!? Will Guybrush learn his insults in time to fight the Sword Master? Will he even be able to find his way to the Sword Master's house? Find out this week when Guybrush closes in on completing that third trial... Mastering the Sword.

There is a large and small version of the clip and each with or without subtitles.

Large (35 MB) Large with subtitles
Small (10.4 MB) Small with subtitles

Enjoy! 


go to http://www.worldofmi.com for the show!

Yeah, you never know when agsers might show up parked in the middle of your lawn in the middle of the Mittens, like Scummbuddy...Ã,  ::)
So, it's good to have extras.

I suppose you are saying to switch, say right after a cutscene that uses the black top and bottom, to straight into game with the black lines slowly moving out of screen?

well, if you want it to stretch the room image in any way, i do believe that is impossible, (within AGS), but you could easily just add two black bars as GUIs and move them off screen slowly to simulate the effect.

do a forum search on 'smart scrolling'

I've heard that Paul Bettany http://imdb.com/name/nm0079273/ was already cast as the Joker.

6) Where's Petteri when you enter the AGS Games Factory, and wheres the AGS Bar?!?!!? This is an outrage! Pester Quest Lives!!
I could send you the char files if you'd like. Czar is supposedly recreating a bar background. Maybe we could use the room to "get to know the agsers... but then again, there are so many of us. Maybe just CJ.

What do you mean "Where's Petteri...".Ã,  Is he supposed to be a character in the games factory or are you asking about his song?Ã,  Ã, 

Chapter 2 will begin when the player enters the bar.Ã,  There needs to be more characters created for the bar scene which are not complete at thsi time.Ã,  Ã, If you have some cha files you think would be useful then by all means do so.Ã, 


Have you played Pester Quest? It would only take you about 4 minutes anyways, but in it, I talk about the AGS Games Factory, and some doors. You may get a kick out of the game.

those are most definitly not true. they were taken and edited from a strip where calvin is filling up a water balloon. I hate them. and its too hard for his company to crack down on all of the little stores along boardwalks and in stores/malls that have him doing it.
