Entertainment / World of Warcraft Private Server
« on: June 09, 2008, 11:09:47 pm »
So, the guys here in Iraq didn't have a lot of choices when it came to internet and playing World of Warcraft... So I created our own little private server.

They can log into my machine and play, I have bots that run the auction houses and I can create my own weapons, items, etc... I can also pretty much do anything in-game, such as modify money, fly without a mount, add any items weapons I want and even go to level 255 (the max is usually 70).

So if there are anythings in the game you'd like to see, or just have me make a little video showcasing some of the things you can do, post it here.

Coding / External Rooms & Objects (GM7)
« on: October 08, 2007, 04:45:57 pm »
Download:
external.zip (11.7KB)

I first create a room then set the size to 16x16 (just to keep it small). In the creation code of the room:



That's all I need to do in the .gmk file, now onto the externals.

The init.txt file contains gml code that is executed.


I have a small sprite with 7 tiles inside

I could have up to 224 tiles inside if I'd like to, as I'm using a sprite based font to tile the room. I use ord('A') as the first character so my sprite based font goes from A-G.

As you can see inside this file, I create a room and execute the code inside of the .txt file


I also set the caption and execute an object file.


Inside the objRoom0.txt file, you can see a long string of A's, etc. with #, my 256x224 pixel room is made up of 16x14 tiles, each represented by a tile in the sprite based font.

When laid out, these lines look like this


And when ran, the .gmk file looks like this.


You can edit this file to use as many layers as you'd like, just draw them in order in the object. You can also use this as a method to create spawn points for objects.

Coding / Diablo Style Health Sphere
« on: September 05, 2007, 11:00:40 pm »


Download: Diablo.gmk (90.6 KB)

This example shows you a simple way to use draw_sprite_part to get the Diablo Style Health Sphere effect. You can also use this effect for Mana.

Quote from: ev_draw
{
   ...
   // Draw the life orb.
   draw_sprite_part(sprLifeBall, 0, 0, 100, 100, -health, 270, 290);
   ...

You can use either GameCube (GCN) or Nintendo64 (N64) styled HUDs with these graphics. Ocarina of Time 2D will include both styles from the options menu.

Graphics / Alphabets & Numbers
« on: August 18, 2007, 07:40:46 pm »
All of these can be used as a sprite-based font in GameMaker.

The First alphabet is the normal "Link to the Past" styled text, modified by myself to include special characters.
Alphabet animation (223 frames 8x32 .gif 8.03 KB)


The Second alphabet is the large styled, custom text, made by myself used to display Boss Names.
Large Alphabet frames: (223 frames 32x64 .gif 15.7 KB)


The Third alphabet is the tiny styled, custom text, made by myself used to display the names of locations on the Overworld Map Subscreen.
Map Alphabet frames: (223 frames 8x16 .gif 6.65 KB)

Graphics / Large Boulder from the Hole of 'Z'
« on: August 18, 2007, 07:39:02 pm »
This is the large boulder from the Hole of z in my Ocarina of Time 2D game...

The inspiration:


Boulder frames (4 frames 128x32 .png 1.56 KB)


Boulder animation (4 frames 32x32 .gif 1.01 KB)


Boulder shadow (1 frame 32x16 .gif 83 bytes)


The boulder shadow uses 25% transparency and is drawn before the boulder is drawn.
Quote from: ev_draw
{
   draw_sprite_ext(sprBoulderShadow, 0, (x + 3), (y + 22), 1, 1, 0, c_white, 0.75);
   draw_sprite(sprBoulder, -1, x, y);
}

In-game the boulders animation or image speed is 1/4 (room_speed=30).
Quote from: ev_create
{
   image_speed = 0.25;
}

Other Discussion / Anyone else here have a Zune?

I got mine a few days ago and I tell you, I love this thing! I transfered all my DVD's to it and can watch them on the go, I have a nice MOD that allows me to use it as an external Hard Drive which shows up in Windows Explorer.

Zelda Projects / OoT2D - The Original by TRM (New Graphics upgrades too)
« on: December 15, 2006, 09:58:58 pm »
I am aware of GM 7.0 and will be converting the game before the release of the Beta, I'm sure some of the newer functions will increase the speed of the game as well.

The game will be hosted at http://trmgames.com

I will be sending Mike 'TSA' Damiani the finished beta for his Speed Testing skills (you can find his speed run at http://speeddemosarchive.com/OcarinaOfTime.html ), it was instrumental in allowing me to make OoT2D as close to the original as possible.

The XML parser has been updated as well, and I still need more languages to be translated. Please download the file at http://barrashomes.com/english.xml and translate to the language of your choice.

You are not permitted to use the SubMenu/Map graphics in your projects.

A lot of the graphics/sprites have been updated, even some of these shown are not reflective of the ones used in the game and have since been updated.
