There should still be manual labor in the game. I don't want players to just leave the game for a week and then come back to a ton of stuff waiting. :P
Does unity, as a rule, discourage importing textures without at least one pixel of alpha along the edges? I'm getting the tiniest bit of bleed-around-the-top on some of my 2d images.
@Wackidev codeassasin was going for a TD game, which didn't turn out like one after making a while! and I and gustavo had a TD game almost built in one night, tough we never finished it.
Finally i was able to load .xsi in c# it was terrible experience
:)
i had to even rewrite streamreader so i can peek forward in file, omg if there is a bug i will never find it :) but its nice reflection based deserialization :)
yeah, but their format did not look that hard when i first saw it :)
anyway i've writtern my own contnet pipeline so i can easily go for another format, but if the .xsi will work, and i seems it does, then no need to change that :)
well now i only have to figure out if i want to use component system even for rendering or not
and then my mmorpg will be complete in no time! :)
What does that mean? You're accelerating at 3 m/s/s (e.g.) to the right, trying to travel 10 meters (to the left?), while already traveling at 10 m/s to the right.
I usually look to see what other questions they've asked. If they've never accepted any answer, and have many questions, I'll suggest that they'll get better answers in the future if they start accepting existing answers.
"Developers can wave farewell to the roadblocks of bringing a console game to market. Anyone can make a game: every OUYA console is a dev kit. No need to purchase a license or an expensive SDK. It's built on Android, so developers already know how it works.
That doesn't mean OUYA is an Android port. You can create the next big title in your bedroom – just like the good old days! Who needs pants!?
OUYA could change AAA game development, too. Forget about licensing fees, retail fees, and publishing fees. "
I see this as a much more open XBLIG
Which I support. I own like... 3 actual Xbox games and a ton of Indie / Arcade games
well it probably is more open, dont sure about that "much" but ok
still i dont see me buying console with no good games on
because as i said who would make game that would run just on this console?
and if he makes game that runs on this console and any other android device, like phone, why play it on console when i have phone and when it has such low graphics that it can run on phone
@TreDubZedd I guess 1000 lines of code doesn't need that many threads, unless you application is doing some heavy computations and you want to use multiple cores to speed things up
The idea is that your Controllers (human and AI) control one (or potentially more, depends on the game) Actor. Both the human and AI controllers use the same interface to communicate with the actor(s)
Using this pattern gives you some nice flexibility, and a nice home for the AI. You can easily swap out one controller for another, or move swap out the actors you are controlling
In UT, the soldier is an Actor, and your keyboard/mouse would be set up in a Controller. When your soldier dies, your controller detaches from the dead dude and attaches to a free-look camera until a new soldier Actor is created for you.
When you hop in a vehicle, your solder hops in the vehicle, but your Controller starts controlling the vehicle Actor instead of your soldier
These are just examples
Since the AI implements a Controller, it can do everything a human controller can, and (hopefully) nothing more.
This Controller/Actor system doesn't require a component system, it's on a higher plane
I guess it would be implemented as a System though
i dont think that data only components actually work, but you still need something that has functions, like systems in artemis, so your controller logic would be there
but really there is no reason why not write that code directly into component...
Even if it is weighted towards developers, thats probably a good thing because it means that developers are actually interested in producing games for it. Problem is, who knows whether its just people like us, or people who do professional work (or even if they are developers, its all just speculation!)
I feel like a grumpy old man. I still don't see the appeal. But then again, I don't really see the appeal of tablets or consoles either. So I guess I'm just out of touch with technology.
It seems to me that this is attempting to do what Nintendo claimed to want to do with the Wii: enter (and eventually dominate?) the casual market in console-space.
the OUYA is a headless Android tablet. The reason it's cheap is because it doesn't need the two expensive pieces of the tablet: the touchscreen and the battery.
I mean, I can't really appreciate the design work the OUYA team is putting into their controller, because modern console controllers are USB-plug and play anyways
can any one tell how to find a sprite on touch. I have a puzzle game n which i have 6 images , i need to detect which sprite is touch on touch method .
@TreDubZedd, i have 6 images of size 640*960 and in each images some parts are visible and other parts are invisible so i made rect of visible parts and i want touch of only visible parts
