Here, m0ds, check your temp with this. It's sure to frustrate anyone

Here's a video of me playing it on the final stages.

I used to get really pissed off while playing Mario Kart Wii online. Mainly because of hackers and people who I just CANNOT beat. I don't let it bother me anymore and now I enjoy it a hell of a lot better. It helps to imagine being filmed racing and imagine being a commentator and such. It's much more fun that way.

I also, as a kid, used to get iritated at various NES games, but nothing too intense. My friend would do this whipping action with the controller and make a big wave in the wire almost unplugging it and yell at the tv. Gah.

Looks just as good as it did during the back sale!

Looking forward to this one, Ghost. Keep up the good work and also, thanks for scaring the pants off of me with that moon. Good goddamn, man, I'll never look up at the moon again O_O

Ponch is ignorant to the fact that if he is a "cow", then he is therefore... a woman.

 
That's funny!

I've never heard of those, but they sound awfully fun. I think this would be an excellent idea for an adventure game. Good luck with it!

As for a treasure, how about a t-shirt featuring something from the book and game?

Outlandish!

qptain Nemo once said to me on IRC, "I'm trying to be as manly as I can when I'm shaving my legs.", and then he proceeded to "/qptain_nemo touches Snake" me...SEVERAL TIMES! HE'S A VIRTUAL MOLEST0R!!1! RUN AWAY!

I think Ponch just went into moo mode. Also Snake that's a weird place to announce you're working on Leitor's Edge!

I figured it would go unnoticed in the midst of all the madness in this thread!

Bump you, asshole

I don't have any answers to your questions, but I feel if you ask any more, this should belong in the beginner's technical forum.

Dualnames, stop being Icey's big brother/body guard. I agree with you as far as "let Icey do what he wants with his games" and such, but as for stopping people from derailing the thread and trying to make Icey do things he just ain't gonna' do, you're not going to win, man. Leave it alone and save your energy for a new adventure game

"THEY AIN'T WORTH IT, ROCK"!

As for me, I'm thinking of opening a new thread of my own in the silly forum about all the plans I have for Leitor's Edge
...which has been back in "production" for the past three weeks \._./

Kaputtnik, Andromeda is the closest galaxy to ours

On topic: This is great news, PCJ (and an almost Stupot!)! This is really exciting to hear this.

I agree with DKH, I'm not too fond of a pit stop either.

What are the specs for sprites and the courses? Or are there any yet?

It's about time Calin said something. He did a hell of a job on his Mario example thing he did, the physics were great. The feel of it was perfect.

I'll put my hand up for track design, though no scripting is coming from me.

I think the characters and karts should be worked on by more than 2 or 3 people, though.

That is perfect! I love this character. Awesome animating, Maddoxic!

Icey, why all the double posting?

I'm usually wrong about everything I think I know something about, but I'll carry on with my ignorance and say, "Because...
a.) ...he honestly forgot he was the last person who had posted and also didn't see that he was."
b.) ...he's posting from his phone and for some reason he couldn't log in to edit."
c.) ...he thought that nobody would see his edit and miss what he wrote (I've been guilty of this in the past, but only because I'm a narcissistic ass) and so decided to bump the thread to ensure he is being heard."
d.) ...he didn't think before posting."
e.) ...of some other reason I can't think of at the moment."
f.) All of the above!

Before continuing, let me clarify even further that keyboard controls is a STAPLE in computer gaming and OF COURSE will be the DEFAULT control. I'm saying joystick SUPPORT should be a must.

Champagne-on-Ice, we probably won't know what happens when a player gets disconnected/quits while there is a race in session until we get to this point. With Mario Kart Wii, if somebody gets disconnected, or they quit, what happens is that the race will abruptly end or the player who quit/disconnected disappears and the race continues without them.

I agree with Peder about physics being first priority. Let's get the control/feel/gameplay down first before worrying about the graphics...even though graphics are awful fun to produce
But on the other hand, since this is a swarm, we COULD work on graphics without affecting the progress on scripting. Holy shit, I'm FULL of branching points tonight! I should be writing a CYOA! Pfft (as Al_Ninio would say to me), I wouldn't get THAT done either! HAR!

At a option for key board cause someone might not have a Joystick or be near one at the moment. I'm not complaining cause I already got one. I'm just thinking for the better of the games future.

Come again? At a option for key board? What?

Let me clarify: Joystick support ALONG SIDE keyboard control will be a must for people who prefer to use a fucking joystick/gamepad as opposed to being forced to use the keyboard... unless the user can define their own key configuration... but in any case, I've said this too many times already in such a short amount of posts (2), having joystick SUPPORT would be a good god-damn splendid idea.

Joystick support is DEFINITELY a must. It's no fun playing a karting game with the keyboard

Yes, I agree. I always tend to make things more complicated than necessary
