	Heh, just voicing my opinion... Also, Piers, you can use Alpha Values in GM. Logged

Piers, Game Maker doesn't have "built-in" textboxes - it isn't like Multimedia Fusion. It has a show_message method, but that shows a standard Windows pop-up message, and Windows can't support that type of per-pixel transparency right now anyway - at least not until Vista.

You can just create a sprite, set the drawing alpha, and then draw the textbox at a transparent value. Or, if you aren't drawing the textbox but rather placing it in the room, just set its image_alpha and it will automatically be transparent.

I know that, I'm a gm programmer, but I just put textbox.

Silly cat! Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 3313	Sometimes I feel a lot fo you are just using this topic to get your post count up :/... Anyway, I like the text boxes (considering I made the background for them ) they make me want to touch them . Anyway, just so you guys know tiling and spriting is getting pretty tiring for the game (considering that I've tiled every room so far and I'm going to have to tile every single other room) but I guess it's just what makes game making fun. I know you'll all love my maps in the end. If you like what you've seen in screenshots so far, then you'll love what else I've got in store for you . Logged

I don't try to use it for that even though it sometimes happens. You guys should oneday go custom graphic style also everyone remembers the saying, "Graphics arn't as important as gameplay". Hope in the end its all worth it. (Maybe you should hire on someone else if your that tierd. I can make a few suggestions)

But the forest he tiled was just a bunch of bushes with a fence surrounding them, no trees or anything. So basically, two different tiles and a green background. I shouldnt make fun of AoDC though .

And yes, the game will run at around 40 FPS, we're trying to keep the game moving smoothly at a nice balanced rate. In early development, there was a lot of lag due to some of the GameMaker files, but AoDC has since improved upon these and the game looks great. And Piers, I have so much more respect for you .

Why not make resources external? Its much easier and Cryptor is easy to use.

AoDC strives to keep the game file size as low as it can possibly be, so the download may be pretty small, but you'll be getting a lot of adventure .
