oh yeah, btw, need to post up on some information regarding the game. I don't know how to classify it. There is a FPS part, a linear battle screen part(kinda like Tales of Phantasia, if anyone ever played it), and I am using mario sprites. So can anyone help me make up a funny story line, involving mario and the gang? |

there are two parts, when u get into the maze, it's like a first person shooter game, you chase each other around, then if u see them, u can fire some kinda laser or something, and then u get into the linear battle screen to duke it out. the linear screen is like any real time Worms game. There are selection of weapons to use to take down the opponent. So far, I am using Mario and Peach sprite for the game. |

hmm..well i have an idea but it might sound stupid and it might be really hard to do. Its like a small movie, where mario and the gang are walking. then like ghosts or wutever take control and turn mario and the ppl against each other. I would be amazed if u can pull this off, cuz its almost impossible to do it in turing. Maybe in flash, but not in turing. Unless u can find a way to put like a small flash video as an intro, which then leads into the game. |

Are u doubting my skills as a programmer!!!??? Calling me stupid eh?  
just kidding, I think that's a good idea. I think i can do it, we did something like that for our midterm game. Isn't it just bunch of sprites strung together? Like a large animation. I think I'll use that. Cool, this even gives me an idea for the ending. Sweet, thanks krishon. Now all I need is alot of mario character sprites and some cool effects, like when Big Boo brain controls Mario, and some flashy background effects as well...... |

yeah i know ...
run your program press the scroll lock button(located 2 buttons right of f12) and make sure the scroll lock light is on. then run your program and hit printscrn button(located next to f12)... then go to any picture editor(such as paint brush) and simply paste your picture by pressing ctrl+c... then save the picture and that's it... |

ok, here are the three pictures, two of them are from the split screen thingie, and one is from SilverSprite, the raycasting one. the second pictures shows a projectile, it's suppose to be a supersheep thing, and it works like it. the third picture is kinda strange, but he isn't fully done everything yet. |

the third picture is raycasting. yeah, the walls are textured. I don't know how he did it though, I don't even have the raycasting code, my partner has it. I think he used Pic.Scale somewhere in that texturing. On my computer, it's so slow it's not even funny. I don't know how many frames it runs at(probably 1, considering how slow it is). |

yep, definitely, of course, i added something else. I incorporated some of the fighting game intro into this game, with the flashyness and everything. It's pretty cool, i'll upload the intro later, once im finished. |

FPS can't save u when ur using raycasting I guess
neways the game's pretty nice, i've seen it so far. the japanese cartoon flashy crap was (hopefully) suggested a while ago by me ... but i'm hella lazy on reading this topic so who knows |
