I wish I could take part in this, but a lot is going on.

I do hope to take part in the February MAGS if one does take place then.

Best of luck to this current one.

The Topic will be mine... So hold on to your britches

It would be good to 'Show this room's': Everything - as an added option..

Come on Mandle, you know you want to

Anyone else participating besides me and possibly Jack?

We don't need another one horse race

Jack be nimble Jack be quick....

Why shouldn't an action game fit into the theme? I can think of a few...

Line to top all ok... it was missing elements like below...

Of course a lot of graphics became blue cups, cursors blue cups etc etc

I have managed to re import them back.. and game is back on...

Electric went and now trouble with age:

My Game is titled: Fallen Hero..

Cassiebsg: Sent you PM...

Hi Stu,

If I can slip in a few hours between 3 other games this month I'll be in for sure

Is there a reason you didn't use loops 4-7 for diagonal movement?

That could be a work-in alternative...

Cheers

Hi

If, like me you are not much good at drawing walkcycles but you have managed to obtain/create a Left and Right walkcycle then do not despair.

I use this neat trick to cover both Up and Down walkcycles. With carefully placed walkable areas and mouse coordainates you can give the illusion of the walk Up Down loops....It's not quite like the real thing but the illusion can work quite well in most cases.

You will need to create two Views for the character.

Let's call this View 1


and this one View 2


What this does is change the way the Character Faces when walking Up/Down.

If The Character is Facing Left and he walks Up and to the Left he remains Facing Left.

If The Character is Facing Right and he walks Up and to the Right he remains Facing Right.

It's the same for the Down Loops.

The change of these Views is conditioned by the mouse.x coordinates compared to player.x.

Lastly add this to top of Global.asc script

Code: ags

function on_event (EventType event, int data)
{
  if (event == eEventEnterRoomBeforeFadein)
   // Amend player to your player's script Name.
  if(player.View==1 && mouse.x <=player.x-1){    //Right loop.... mouse/player.x amend to suit
  player.ChangeView(2);
 } else if(player.View==2 && mouse.x >=player.x+1){   //Left loop... mouse/player.x amend to suit
  player.ChangeView(1);  

I think I have typed this in correctly

Anyhow, I have used this a few times and it works ok....

If you know a better way I would like to hear from you.

Plus if people try this I would like to hear from you also.

Do make 2018 a fantastic year and may all your problems be small ones

Not in game, no. Only in setup.
E: It is not hardcoded, it is read from config. But currently there is no way to switch it in game script.

Exactly as I thought... I will have to decide which to choose in Setup..

Cheers

I think that given the time restraint (1 month) one can forgive almost any small issues....

Having said that, MAG virgin Crimson (and of course Mr Reed) have done a splendid job producing such a fine game that was Last and Furious without debut... Technical brilliance....

Now, if you two guys could make a snail race I may be in with a chance of winning

Well done guys

Sorry for double post only wanted too add image example..

With Linear Interpolation on plus stretch these grey lines appear:



With Linear Interpolation off these lines do not appear but button text is then affected.

1024 x 768
32 bit
D3  9
AGS 3.4.0.14

Is there any way to switch Linear Interpolation on/off in game?

Or is it hard coded during setup options?

"Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood."

Topic is right up my street...I'll see what I can whip up

Hold on to your pants

You should use a boolean Variable...

set to false

set to true when required and use that condition

if true do this
else do this
