Function to be called in "OnMouseClick" :


function gradual_solidity(int max_transparency, int speed, int type, int id){
Ã,  int tran = 100;
Ã,  int newtran = 100;

if (speed <= 100){
Ã,  Ã,  while(newtran > max_transparency){Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã, 
newtran = tran - 1;
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Wait(1);
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  if (type == 0){ //if it's for a character
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  SetCharacterTransparency(id, tran);
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  }
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  else if (type == 1){ //if it's for a GUI
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  SetGUITransparency(id, tran);
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  }
Ã,  Ã,  Ã,  }
Ã,  Ã,  }
Ã,  }


At run-time:

Error: run_text_script1: error -6 (Error (line 80): Script appears to be hung (150001 while loop iterations without an update)) running function 'on_mouse_click'

I see an update.Ã,  But, I'm obviously doing something wrong.

Thanks for the help.Ã,  :D

Hey.
I am rather new to web page design.  I only know HTML, some CSS and some JavaScript.
I know that a lot of you are web page designers, so I thought I should post this here.

Is there a way to make "Image Layers"?  Like having one image over another. 
I want this because, for a navagation bar, I want to have an image in the background, and some smaller image-link thingies on top.

Basically what I want is a tag or property that puts an image in the backround, like embedded in the page, but does not repeat.

Thanks 

This was made loosely based on 2ma2's tutorial thingy on his site.

I am pretty happy, but I know it could use some improvement.

ThanksÃ, 

I had 14 days to do this, and I slacked off on about 5, so I made this game in 9 days (unless my math is wrong).
I am going on a trip tommarow, so any bug reports will have to wait to be fixed until I get back.

Anyway.

The intro is a parody of the "(Insert country here) Idol" shows.Ã,  You can choose to play as Max, or as Maggie.Ã,  Each character has his or her (I haven't decided) own path.

Max: You are the worst actor in the world!Ã,  You must find a way to get better in the 3 rooms that have been supplied to you.

Maggie: Everyone hates you but the critical one.Ã,  You must kill him to get the part.Ã,  You must also figure out how to do it in 2 rooms!!!


Maggie



Max

So, you can get the game right now by clicking on this sentance!

Ta-ta!

My latest photoshop expirience:



Any comments?

Change any colors, lens flare?

I was thinking of using it in my MAGS game.

Thanks 

Hello

I made my own text display box (Display() command), and the text is pretty hard to read.

How do you change the color of the font on a text display box?   There aren't any objects other than the borders, so I don't know how to do it.
Thanks 

1.  So I was workin on my game a few seconds ago, and my grandparents come up, wanting to check out the source code for "5- O'clock Lock".  So I open it up in the already running AGS editor.  When I'm done, I open up my game again, to find all of my data lost.  So I thought:
  "There should be a "Save the Game?" dialog box when you load up a new one! 

2.  One other suggestion.  It can be done with global variables, but I figured I might as well post it here anyway, as I am already asking for something.  Anyway.

 

Code: ags

 if (IsPlayerCharacter[EGO] == 1){
               //yada yada yada...
           }

What do you think about them both?

I am on Day 3- Afternoon.Ã,  I did everything in the glade with the bodies like the walkthrough said, but I went to city hall, and nothing happened.Ã,  Strange.  The walkthrough told me that

Spoiler

The mayor and order members would get in a van, and I would follow them.

[close]

I don't think it matters, but this is my second time playing it, and I chose the Hyperprint path, and it worked. (I chose the sewers this time around)

Thanks!

OK, I seriously had no idea where to post this.

ANyway, so I decided to get into this whole RON thing.    And so I go to the website, download Lunchime Of The Damned, and I am like "Oh boy!  Another game"

So I load the game, and I get this small cutscene, and then it closes.
Did Yatzee mess with the link of soemthing as like a practical joke before he left us?

Can somone give me the real link to the real game?  Thanks 

Perils of Poom.

I have the mask and phone.  This is what I did:

Spoiler

I used the stinkbomb to try and gas the queue away, but he said that it was too far from the queue for them to smell it.

So then I looked at the walkthough and it said to use the poster on the vent first.

[close]

What do I do now?  I can't get another bomb, and nothing happens when I put the poster up. 

That's right!

You know, over the years (months for me), we have seen stupid, pathetic, anger-driven, locked threads. 
There are the classics (PhilRoberts2004), and soon-to be(What pisses you off?), and the one that commemorates them all, this one.

  So go flat out.  Which of these humerous threads deserve to be in "What is YOUR favorite locked thread?"?  Is there one worthy of the honor, the recognition?  Is there a hijacked thread that is just too funny to handle?  Write your thoughts here 



Oh yeah, and moderators-  I can read your mind.  You are going to say something like: I think this one is!.  Well, I am one step ahead of you!  Nothing gets past me!

[5- O'clock Lock]

The codephrases for disaster:

Telephone and computer being fixed...

No Intercom...

Door locked from inside...

5:00 PM (17:00)...

Evening deep-sea fishing trip at 5:30...

....


Introducing the most awaited Short all quarter....




That's right!  5- O'clock Lock is here!
You have been waiting for a long time for this one, but it is ready!.

Dedicated to my father for his birthday.


You are my Dad, pooped out after a long day's work. The only thing that kept you through was your love for fishing, and the fact that you have a big fishing trip in 30 minutes.
Everything seems to be perfect. All you need to do is open the door, and leave...


Features:

     - A set of original cursors!
        - Some pretty hard puzzles!
        - Original Graphics!
        - Hand- Drawn Character Art!
        - Witty Dialoge!
        - About 30 minutes of game-play if you are lucky!

And...  something totally secret...


A SECRET BONUS PUZZLE!!!

That's right! No one (Except Zor, maybe) knows that I have a bonus puzzle in my game!



So if you are ready to play this game, you can get it by clicking on this sentance!!!

Big ol thanks to Zor for hosting the mirror!

Enjoy!  

By the way, there are a few typos, but only one is very serious:
If you see String, it means strong, so don't get confused.

[diddn't]

I know that this is a larger idea, and it probably isn't going to appear in the next beta, if it appears at all, but after reading Chris's interview in The Inventory and him saying that the main problem with AGS games is the grammer problems, I thought this would be a good idea:



You know you want it.

The spell check feature would only check strings.
  So...
  LoseInventory(3); Would be ignored, but
  DisplaySpeech(EGO, "I diddn't do that."); would be corrected.  
Understand?

I don't know how hard it would be to implement, but I just thought I should suggest it.

What do you think?

OK, I have gooten quite far in the game but:

Spoiler

In the warehouse, the walkthrough tells me to use the 3 strange rods with the key replica.  I have tried every possible combination, but nothing happens.

[close]

Has anyone else encountered this?

I thought this would be the best place to put it, so here it is.  
I have a cable modem, super fast.  I can go from agagames.com to zebrafacts.net in 2 seconds.  But for some reason, I can't download my game from freewebs.com in less than 15 minutes.
 Imagine how bad that would be have you dial-up.  

So can somone please host my game?  It is 4.74 MB of pure goodies!  I need to put my game up on a fast download link.  My ISP dosen't work, and freewebs is slow.  Get it?

I will change the subject of this thread to something like "Found Host, kill me now" when I want m0ds to delete it.

Thanks for listening- er, reading.

OK, OK, before I give you the link, You may be thinking that becasue I have just posted another MIDI, that I just post everything to show off my developing skills.  That is not true.
I am using this MIDI in one of my upcoming projects.  I think it isn't too bad, but can always improve, and I know that a ton of people here can help.  That is why I want some C, as well as some C.  Here is an example of C and C for my MIDI:

It's repetitive

Don't say that.  I know it is.  Everything I do is.

PS:  You actually have to turn up your volume if you really eant to hear all of the instruments (My Fault) :

Alright, here is my MIDI

It's a classical piece I call Hop On Pop
I don't really have a name for it...


I don't know about you, but I'm quite proud of it.  I think that the harpsichord is awkward, though.

Tell me what you think.

I use the www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php link.
As you can see, I can log in fine with that.  

"But RTF!  Why are you complaining about not logging in if you can log in?"

Shutup, dumbass.

In case you don't know, my game has been delayed about 2 weeks becasue of life in general.
It's FINALLY done!  But I can't upload it because I can't log in from the site's link!!!1!1!

I need to be registered to upload my game to the games page!!!!!11!!.  If you look directly below my name, you can see proof that I am, in fact, registered.

Someone help me, please.  I really want to have my game on the games page, and I eant to feel like a member again!  Waaah :'(

Thanks for reading

Obviously there is no free IRC client, right?
The world wouldn't make sense if there were, but I want to make sure.  I live off of free stuff.  
 mIRC is shareware, and I searched for FREE IRC under google.  I found a few things, but i couldn't find QuakeNet.

Can someone help by telling me the name of a free one?

Or can someone just say that there is no free IRC client that can get #AGS and that I should stop being cheap and start working, punk!

I love it.  I forget whose design it is, but it is very blue, and blue and chrome are the colors of the future.

I clicked on the games page and I was like "Wait..."  Then I tried the "About" link, and it was like it was before.  Then I waited like 2 minutes, refreshed the page, and BOOM!  I bet I was one of the first 100 to see the new site in action!

EDIT:  OK, it's Darth Mandarb's design!  Yay!  I voted for that one.
