yes thats right

I bring to you, fully scalable , rotating sprites !!! made with game editor.



I have not scaled these sprites at all, all scaling is done with GE

There are only two actors on screen , the turning ones... which are all clones of a single actor

(thats right.... individually scaled clones )

and there is single actor to show simple scaling ( press keys 1,2,3,4) , scaling can be done in very very small steps ie: very smooth graduations

note: although all the clones are now rotating the same way, they can also be rotated seperatly, at different speeds, directions etc etc

this demo does NOT use canvas actors at all !

the rotations can be in any number of degrees - mine are set at about 5 degrees a turn, but smaller (smoother) ones are easy to do.. you will note there is also very litte loss of information in the scaling... this is a BIG secret !

hope you all like... because


I want a million zillion dollars for the secret !!! ......(I take paypal)

mwhahahhhaaaaaaaaa

OH ! forgot to say... There is NO perfromance hit from this method at all.. none... zilch .. 600 sprites will work as easily as 6

(better make that TWO Million Zillion dollars)

If you didn't use a canvas, GE doesn't have methods of changing imported sprites, unless I'm totally wrong... So are you saying this iss a result of an algorithm you created?

I definitely didn't use a canvas...and well.. most of you know my programming is crap.. ...so no algorithm either..

but GE definitely does the scaling

first person to guess how gets a point

but please PM your guesses to me direct rather then posting them, I want everyone to have a chance to figure this out so please don't spoil the fun..

I will post the winners name and guess later.

Nice work feral

If its not programed then I have absolutely no idea about anymthods that would let you accomplish this... You win!

Well that's pretty freakin impressive! I think I know how you did it too. There are two possibilities to explain how its done:

1. Here is a picture of FeralX summoning Harkane, the ancient Scaling Elemental:

Now did you use goat's blood or human blood to cast the spell? Is Harkane a nice guy?

the other possibility is:

2. Here is a picture of FeralX breaking into Makslane's house and stealing the beta copy of GE 1.40!


In either case, well done!

HAHAHAHH!!!!!!!

Ahahahahahaha

maybe he did both...

i wonder if markslane knows how he did it...

How about instead of a million zillion dollars, I give you a cookie?
