haw-haw ~~ My first game

[cforall]

I am an Chinese. My english is not very good. sorry for that.
This is my first game which called BBShooter.
I have basic knowledge of C. but I have never made any game before.
I spend 7 days to make this game. I manage to do that because of the great gamemaking platform GE！
GE —— The Awesome Tool

I check the prog and find there may be some "Timer" and "DrawActor" problems......

If these sourcefiles donnot perform well on your computer, you guys can download the .exe file to try, I just upload it.
I hope the .exe file will do a good job on your computer.

Hi cforall, after run the game, the play screen blinks and stays only a black screen

Hi cforall, after run the game, the play screen blinks and stays only a black screen

Thank you for your update.
But I have to say its weird because it works well on my machine......
Could you see the screen like the screenshot I put out?
Anyway I will check my prog carefully. Maybe I should put out a .EXE edition?
I will update as soon as I find what the problem is......

Thank you again!

I've downloaded again and it's working now

Hey man, excellent work! Good is that line what you have like line where your shot will go...

Good work!

[cforall]

I'm happy its working now

Thanks for your spending time on my little work.

As I know in China and Japan
many people like me who loves game and wants to make it easily
use software called "RPG MAKER" to make JRPG
and use software called "NScripter" and "KRKR" to make AVG.
they are all Japanese style and very popular......
I want to look for something different so I google and finally find GE.
Glad to be one of its users

I have no idea If you are interested in JRPG or AVG......
Haw haw...maybe you guys could compare these different softwares and find a way to make GE better.

Man, but I dont uderstand how do you make that aimline...can you explain me that little bit more please?

And one more question about graphics...In start in the game,..that black line which cover the text...how do you make it invisible slowly.. :-S I cant explain that in english...

but how do you make that line..so the are in start full black color...and then slooowly invisible and at end they are invisible...

Man, just look at that image and tell how to paint this... Thx


Thank you

Thank you

Sure, very pleasant to explain how I did it.
Because of the different timezones I cannot reply in time... sorry

In DrawActor func of actor shootballcenter:
step 1, find the "xscreen" and "yscreen" of the center of the blue flame;
step 2, use "distance" func to calculate the distance between mouse and of the center of the blue flame;
like this: temp = distance(xmouse , ymouse , xscreen, yscreen);
step 3, use "direction" func to calculate the launch angle and use "degtorad" func turn it from rad to deg;
like this: angle = degtorad(direction(xmouse, ymouse, xscreen ,yscreen));
step 4, use pythagorean theorem to calculate the screen coordinate of every aimline;
like this: (-1*(temp/10)*cos(angle), 1*(temp/10)*sin(angle)) , (-2*(temp/10)*cos(angle), 2*(temp/10)*sin(angle)) , etc.
step 5, use "CreateActor" to draw these little aimlines;
like this: for(i=1;i<=9;i++) CreateActor("aimline", "aimline", "(none)", "(none)", -i*(temp/10)*cos(angle), i*(temp/10)*sin(angle),false);

In CreateActor func of actor aimline:
step 6, use a "CreateTimer" to ctrl the dying time of aimline;
like this: CreateTimer("Event Actor", "amilinetodie", 20);

In Timer(amilinetodie) func of actor aimline:
step 7, after the timer amilinetodie, use "DestoryActor" to destory the aimline;
like this: DestoryActor("Event Actor");

Thank you

About the "slooowly invisible" ...Ahh...I type so many english...But Its OK
Just look at the picture overbar.png of the data folder you will know.
What I do is to just ctrl the speed of the overbar.png
At the beginning I give a 30 speed to the overbar.png likethis: xvelocity = 30;
When Its x >= 100 && x<1000 , I change its speed to 10, now slowly;
when Its x >= 1000 , I change its speed tp 0, now its stop;
Haw Haw all you need is to find the overbar.png you will see how simple it is.

Thank you man,...I will try to do this. Thx
