Hi,

Code: ags

cProfessor.x =otop.X +16 + GetViewportX();

This npc character is positioned on top of an object bar across the screen near the top.

The npc character moves as it should only it jutters along getting into position... What would be a smoother way?

The room is a long scrolling one.

I may be better off with a gui..?

cheers

Edit: gui and button is the way I have gone... all ok

This problem with walk-behinds in D3D when "Ignore walkbehinds" is set on the character is proving to be much more difficult to resolve than I thought. I don't really want to release 3.2 until it is fixed, but it's looking less and less likely that I'll be able to find a fix for it, unfortunately...

Has this been resolved yet?

Hi

I have recently added a new graphics card that allows me to use d3d.

However, i notice that using d3d messes the image bullet points. DirectDraw shows them ok.

All other game images are fine.

Can archaeologist Bert find a way into Pharaoh Ramitupem's Pyramid and then locate his tomb?

Also, Professor Hinkley is missing. Is he stuck in the pyramid or is he... Dead?

If only life were easy

Contains some humour with the puzzles getting harder as you progress.

Hi,

for all of you who can remember the days when you had 'lives' and these where shown. If you were killed you lost a life and carried on. Should you loose all 'lives' you would either die and the game ended or you would be sent back to try it all again.

What are your thoughts using this in today's games?

Project: Tomb Hunter. A very intensive game that relies a lot on puzzles and choices rather than quantity of rooms.

Positions:
* Narrator story teller (possibly voice acting).
* Puzzle ideas (cryptic) with solutions.
* Artist to help with backgrounds (pyramid tombs)

Date: Start asap.

Non commercial and unpaid.

Hi

the title says it all.

Whilst some take the view that fishing is barbaric and should be banned others think it is a harmless way to spend time, provided of course that any fish caught is handled with care and respect and returned as safely as possible (unless as a food source).

So, what are your views regarding fishing games?

Just a note that I was a keen angler 1968 / 1984.

Hi

I would like to open a discussion on puzzle designs and implementations.

1: Whilst some folk are very cryptic and are prepared to spend many hours trying to solve a scenario there must be many others where if they can't solve it within say 15 minutes quit the game and maybe try later, maybe not.

2: Hints and Walkthroughs: Are these an indication that the puzzle solution is not obvious or is not logical or the puzzle is not clearly defined to be able to solve it and progress thereby people having to ask for help?

This is an endless list...

What do you people think about puzzles, implementations, Hints and Walkthroughs?

cheers

Hi,

i would like to update my video graphics as a separate entity.

Windows experience: 3D business and gaming graphics performance= 1.0

can anyone give me the best options / advice about a new video card (besides chucking pc out ..)

low price that is compatible.

cheers

[Lord of the Rings]

This is an adventure Boardgame based around Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit.

It is a practice project that i wanted to do and no more.... It has gaps for additional features and improvements.

It is fully playable and if you want to pass away a few minutes playing a boardgame, with tumbler, die, and a variety of cards to pick up, then why not give it a play?...

If you like Troll's, Goblin's, Warg's etc etc then they are in this game.

Can you get to the Black Tower and rescue Princess Mika Milovana of Dale from the clutches of wizard gone bad Saruman?

The Hobbit: Rise of the Dragon King is an adventure game in the form of a board game with themes based on Lord of the rings and The Hobbit.

A simple one cursor, one click actions. Both left and right click gives same actions.

This is a much shorter game then my usual offerings.

Storyline:
Gandalf the wizard seeks your help (Saruman has taken away Gandalf's magic) as Princess Mika Milovana of Dale has been abducted by Saruman the evil wizard.

Saruman has taken her to his Black Tower as a sacrifice for the Dragon King Smaug, who returns to Middle-earth every 50 years for a royal sacrificial offering, for which Saruman will gain control over all dragons throughout Middle-earth.

With just a few Crams and a bottle of spring water in your bag, along with nervous courage, you set off to rescue Princess Mika Milovana from the clutches of Saruman in the Black Tower.

Your quest is not an easy one for many allies of Saruman lurk throughout Middle-earth (Wargs, Trolls, Goblins etc).

Enemies will drive you back whilst friends will help you as much as they can.

During your journey there are fairy cards, dragon cards and help or hinder cards. Each will determine your progress in the game. Along the way you may be given charms that will help you defeat Saruman, such as a ring of invisibility.

If you make it to the Black Tower can you summon all you courage to defeat Saruman and return with Princess Mika Milovana of Dale?

Input you own Hobbit Name into the game:













Expect: September 2015.

Should i leave this Board games squares as they are or should i add colour / picture / place?
The squares are all places in Middle-earth....


ideas / opinions welcomed...
