Minecraft 2D

[Imperialjester]

I havent ever played minecraft before but i am interested in the project, can i help?

[savvy]

have you solved the issue with having x and y saving values going off? i found my old minecraft attempt and have been upgrading it, i have blocks working with 5760 blocks which both save and load. however the players xy values seem to have a mind of their own lol. how are you saving/loading?

[Camper1995]

Hm. Well I am not saving yet. I must do the "perfect" character walking. (if possible) and then i can save blocks.
But it will be just an array.

[Imperialjester]

did you read my last post?

[savvy]

hmm, ok. try saving the x and y pos of an actor in an array then get back to me. you may find this an issue also when you get around to it. XD
ImperialJester, you can play classic on minecraft.net, try it. buy the game too, its a great game. can make great friends online sometimes too, i play on the server:
jasonii.tontut.fi:1337 on which im admin, come along and try it. we just got a new world though, so theres not much there... more building space!

[Imperialjester]

[schnellboot]

kinda
it's a slightly different version to the payed one

[jimmynewguy]

wow, never really heard too much about minecraft but looked into it after seeing this topic. Top notch game it seems. If camper can pull off a full 2d version id be very pleased, good luck and don't be afraid to ask for help and such.

i have looked at the minecraft wiki to see how crafting is done, i would suggest modding a tic tac toe or a checkers example somthing that checks where and actor is and if its in a pattern.

[Camper1995]

Hm. Tic tac toe sounds good as an example.
But first, I will need great movement. I have already done it but one problem is there.

When player collides with the ground (left or right side), his animation will be like he dont moves. (stop)
Any ideas how to do this?
================================================================================================
By the way, I see you want to help with this. Thanks I am glad you really want to help me.
If you want to, we must improve this Sky's inventory system, make good ground generator and make crafting.
Once that is done, we have made the game. (almost) Then we just have to add weapons and items to craft and that's it.
(Of course there will be a lot of problem and it wont be so easy as i wrote now)

Thank you,

Camper

Okay i did it, it makes him stop when he hits the wall. but when he walking on the top and there is a small gap his feet will hit it and makes him fall down. i could make it better so that it doesnt just make him drop, but i would need separate walk left and walk right images.

i had an idea for the ground generator, you could make it so that you can pick different terrain types like hills, meadow, and mountains.

[Imperialjester]

okay i made it better, also i fixed the head.

[Camper1995]

Sounds cool. But I can't open it even if I put it in folder with data files.
Please post the data too.

Thanks for help

[Imperialjester]

i have just noticed a glitch in my code anyway, im going to have to fix that first.
