Good to see your game making some progress. You should try making the camera centered on the character and follow him around, and have the loading take place in the background so it's seemless.

Cool, would be interesting to see how popular it gets - maybe bigger than Runescape?

I use the old MS VC++ 6.
I've download this Dev-C++ compiler by Bloodshed Software, which looks rather decent, but i'm not quite sure how to get the DirectX libraries to work with it.

I keep wanting to try out linux, i even have Mandrake 10 installed, but i have this obscure modem that doesn't have any Linux drivers, and running an OS without an internet connection is rather pointless.

I'd rather avoid redundant object pieces.
I'm thinking i'll just go with pieces that are tile-wide and taller than a tile.

I've mailed 3 versions of what i've been doing.

In my game i have tiles which are 32x64 pixels.
Using the map editor when i have objects larger than that is a bitch, because then i would need to separate each object into tiles and pick each tile on the map to be a specific tile of the object.

Also it screws with the depth of each tile because the tiles are drawn by order and a tile that's closer overwrites a tile that is farther back.

I'm trying to think of a way to make it more comfortable, like having a text file that numbers each object and says how large it is and then i can draw it at a specific location.

One way i'm thinking of doing this is making the objects have their bottom tile as a base tile, so that they hide anything above the level of the base tile.

Another way is just defining an object as a whole so that i know which tile is blocked for that object and the like.


That must sound like alot of nonsense, i should send you my current version.

Hmm, have you concidered having the player in the center of the screen and scrolling the background when you walk?

I'm currently trying to figure out a good way to implement higher-than-tile objects in my game.

Also, why do you hate C++?
I like it alot, much better than other languages i've played around with, like VB or Pascal...

I was wondering, how do you render the map in your game?
It's not tile-based, is it?

you got a really nice gallery ...

Thanks for the comment on the wallpaper, Friends. Stay tuned for a matching Winamp Skin and perhaps more, depending on how I feel after the winamp skin..

The clock of life is wound but once
And no man has the power
To tell just when the hands will stop
At late or early hour.
Now is the only time you own.
Live, love, toil with a will.
Place no faith in time.
For the clock may soon be still.

wow buddy... it´s an amazing gallery you got here!!! congrats
