I suppose you know how to load a view and set it to a object. Then just use:

start.cycling(object); //will start the animation (walking)
move.obj(object, x, y, step, flag);  

x & y are the positions to walk to. When char. reaches that point the glaf is set. The step is a number that shows how many pixels it will move in one cycle. Usually it's 1.

to check if player reached the x & y, use:

if(isset(flag)){
reset(flag)
stop.cycling(object);
print("You have reached your destination.");
}

Replace the 128 and 125. It should be:

if(posn(o0, left edge x, top line y, right edge x, bottom line y)

Yes, there should be new tutorials. I could write one, but what should be covered in it?

That would be quite easy to make. Open up main.sc  and scroll down to

(instance statusCode  of Code
   (properties)
....

Then just replace the Format with:

Format(param1 " Health: %d   Food: %d   Weight: %d  " healthVar foodVar weightVar)

or something like that. The healthVar, foodVar and weightVar are global variables contain the values you need to show. Is this what you mean?

Put

ProgramControl() before the (send gEgo:setMotiion... to prevent player from walking on it's own. And after it has reached the point, use PlayerControl()

I get this error too, but just go to your AGI Studio folder and copy the Template folder where you want to put your game. And thne just open it in that location.

So drawing the intro screen with the name of the game on is not allowed? Plain text?

The USB keyboard and mouse may only cause problems in-game, not in SCI Studio itself.

I used to have win98 too, and it crashed in the editors after about 30 minutes. But since I switched to XP, all the problems are gone. I was one of the ugh-XP,-that-like-totally-sucks-I'm-never-going-to-use-that-stuff-ugh guys, but it's actually very good.

Have you tried older versions of SCI Studio to see if it crashes less. There may be an version that works for you.

Hey!


v11 = 0; //will equal seconds to 0
load.view(x);
set.view(o1, x);

//other view set up stuff here //

stop.cycling(o1);

if(v11 == 2){ // if 2 seconds have passed
end.of.loop(o1,f100); // sets flag 100 on when loop has ended
v11 = 3; //will equal seconds to 3, because otherwise it would jerk until 1 second has passed (it causes a loop until seconds is not 3)
}

if(isset(f100)){
reset(f100);
set.loop(o1, 1); // the second loop
end.of.loop(o1,f101);
}

if(isset(f101)){
reset(f101);
set.loop(o1,2); // the third loop
end.of.loop(o1,f102);
}

if(isset(f102)){
reset(f102);
set.loop(o1,3); // the last loop
start.cycling(o1); // will loop over and over
}


Don't have time to write the code for poopoo at the moment.

Mega Tokyo SCI Archive / Re:legality of selling games

« on: July 20, 2004, 05:47:49 AM »

But the question is, would anyone buy it?

Why would they buy your game when there are a lot of adventure games with better graphics and sounds and stuff that SCI can produce, and all for free.

Unless your game has something unforseen, something so revolutionary that people just have to buy it.

Hi!

You can user xStep and yStep

(send gEgo: xStep(4) yStep(4))  //now it moves 4 pixels at time

Hi!

Maybe try replacing v253 = 6; with some other variable, example, v252 = 6;, because it seems that if it's not equal to 1 (already open) or 5 (being opened), then all that's left is to print  "There is a box ..."

And I'm quite sure that  

if (v253 == 6) {
get.posn(o0,v253,v254);
..
}
would cause an infinite (never ending) loop. It should be

if (v253 == 6) {
v253 = 7;
...

or

if (v253 == 6) {
if(!isset(f55)){
set(f55);

..
}
}

Hope this helps in any way.
