Nothing really that big, but I'm going to be editing all of kid nico's sprites to make him closer to how i projected him in some concept art I've done of him

Looking good Smile
Still not sure what my opinion is on the shading though. :\

RE: Project FrostFire DevLog - Codestar - 01-29-2010 04:18 PM

to be honest with you.... neither am I Cry

RE: Project FrostFire DevLog - Codestar - 02-01-2010 12:06 AM

if you all are curious as to what the actual scripts might look like for modifying the game, here's an example.
I'll be sure to release some documentation with the demo for this, but I'll leave it to you to figure it out.

This is the lua file used for setting Nicolas's sprites for his attacks depending on what weapon he has equipped.


Code:
function ScriptInit(id)
    Entity = id
    dir = GetDir(Entity);
    weapon = GetWeaponIndex(Entity);
    animation_index = GetAnimationIndex(Entity);
end

function Nico_Attack_Index_Script
    if(GetFlag(Entity, Flag_isclimbing)==false) and (GetFlag(Entity, Flag_ishanging) == false) and (GetFlag(Entity, Flag_ishurt) == false)
    then
        if (weapon == 0) --case 0
        then
            if (GetFlag(Flag_onground)
            then
                if (animation_index >=4 )
                then
                    SetFlag(Entity, Flag_isattacking, false);
                end
                SetHsp(Entity, 0);
                SetSprite(Entity,spr_slingshot);
            else
                if (animation_index >=3 )
                    then
                        SetFlag(Entity, Flag_isattacking,false);
                    end
                SetSprite(Entity,spr_slingshot_air);
                if (dir==LEFT) then SetHsp(Entity, 3);
                if (dir==RIGHT) then SetHsp(Entity, -3);
            end --break
        elseif (weapon == 1) --case 1
            if (Getflag(Entity, Flag_onground))
                SetHsp(Entity, 0);
                SetSprite(Entity,spr_yoyo_ground);
            else
                SetSprite(Entity,spr_yoyo_air);
            end --break
        end
    end
end

Nice touch. Just curious, what program are you currently using?

RE: Project FrostFire DevLog - Codestar - 02-02-2010 06:04 PM

For what?

For sprites I use graphics gale

for the actual game dev itself i use GM6

RE: Project FrostFire DevLog - Goemar - 02-02-2010 06:22 PM

Although it would make the game super huge why not have an option to have the sprites unshaded? Still think they have more character that way...

RE: Project FrostFire DevLog - Codestar - 02-02-2010 07:29 PM

Well right now I'm still kinda iffy on the whole subject of the shading.

On one hand it is unique, easy to draw, and I can churn out tons of animations in a short time

on the other hand, the sprites do look pretty good with the shading, they do take more time to make, and making cutscenes is going to be a pain.

For right now though, I'm sticking with the unshaded sprites for all my testing.

RE: Project FrostFire DevLog - Solink - 02-02-2010 11:18 PM

I like the unshaded sprites better
Great project by the way!

It looks like its coming along really good. Good luck.
P.S. Loved the miniboss theme on your blog.

RE: Project FrostFire DevLog - Codestar - 02-08-2010 11:05 PM

Fun fact: I use the same percussion kit that Megaman X uses.

RE: Project FrostFire DevLog - Mabelma - 02-08-2010 11:06 PM

Everything is coming out nicely. Keep up the great work. I love your business card, it simple yet unique. I had a question what does the Chinese/Japanese letters mean?

RE: Project FrostFire DevLog - Codestar - 02-08-2010 11:10 PM

Kaikimi is the meaning of my name in english translated to japanese.

It means world ruler. I always kinda liked it so i decided to stick with it.

RE: Project FrostFire DevLog - Mabelma - 02-08-2010 11:19 PM

That's so cool, It's an unique yet stylish name. Awesome so does to symbol mean Kaikimi, cool.
