@RadishoftheOpera the BSE zombe game?

Radish of the Opera

@David yeeeeeeeeeeesssssa

David

lol

sure, I guess. (you could use a better environment)

GiantCowFilms

@RadishoftheOpera Yes, no idea why they don't work

Hang, @David

It was made that way very specificly

Just make it work before you start overhauling functional elements

David

@GiantCowFilms did you use my random cube placer?

Radish of the Opera

@GiantCowFilms HAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY HANDSOME ZOMBIES!!!!

GiantCowFilms

16:48

@David Nope, done by hand

Radish of the Opera

YOU MADE THEM USELESS BLOBS OF FAT!!!! GAAAAAHH!!!!

David

@GiantCowFilms ok, so I just make the cubes look better, say buildings.

GiantCowFilms

@RadishoftheOpera The initial zombies are still functional

the clones are cufud though

@David by doing what?

David

@GiantCowFilms I think we have a tag for that: modeling

GiantCowFilms

Hmm

just don't mess the layout

it was done specifically so the jeep can reach speeds high enough to make it tricky to drive

And don't close the exit

David

16:51

@GiantCowFilms I know, I already said as much.

where is a link to the latest version?

Radish of the Opera

@David don't use it! he ruined it!!! gahhhhh!!!!!

David

how about we start putting the project on github.

Radish of the Opera

@David I can model, but what I can't do is python, could you figure out a script that would put the player in the driver seat without causing parenting issues?

@David hmm... good idea

damnit, I forgot my username...

David

@RadishoftheOpera I thought there was only one character, now you say there are parenting issues?

is there going to be a whole family killing the zombes?

Radish of the Opera

@David there is only one player, but he has to get into the jeep.

@David har har...

David

16:56

@RadishoftheOpera see, a joke

Radish of the Opera

funny, can you help or not.

?

David

hey, I just answered GCF's joke question... I'll try.

Radish of the Opera

@David then you went to early

@David I don't know how to setup a project on github, do you want to do it?

David

I still need a link to the game (if I'm going to do anything to it) I think you guys have changed it alot since I had it.

Radish of the Opera

one sec, lemme give you the latest non-funked version

David

16:59

@RadishoftheOpera sure, but if you dont, then you probably can not use git (have to have git installed on your computer)

@RadishoftheOpera you have this guy doing your logic???

someonewithpc

@RadishoftheOpera ...

That's clearly the context here

Radish of the Opera

@David i think i used it before....

Latest non-cowed version of the Zombie Game

pasteall.org/blend/37038

GiantCowFilms

Now I'm mad

Radish of the Opera

@David yes,,,, he knows pyhton, and you weren't making yourself available.

GiantCowFilms

I spent ages making the jeep work, and they you guys just override it.

someonewithpc

17:05

@RadishoftheOpera Non-cowed. Make sure that's stated when you do a proper release :P

Radish of the Opera

@GiantCowFilms don't be.

@GiantCowFilms i was just joking

D:

sorry

GiantCowFilms

I made the zombies be distributed by a program

which makes it easier to make changes, instead of having to update each one by hand

David

@GiantCowFilms that is definitely a must.

Radish of the Opera

lemme see if i can figure out what happended then... cause

like, nothing works...

what did you change on the zombies?

GiantCowFilms

You could just append the ZombieMaster object

and thee

Spawner+

and the scatter+.py script

I think that bit will then work

I currently have only two locations set...

David

17:08

is it safe to leave "trusted source" checked?

:)

GiantCowFilms

yes

David

interesting UI layout...

Radish of the Opera

but the zombies still come from the object "cloner"

GiantCowFilms

No...

the initial zombies come from zombie master, cloned via the aide of Spawner+

which uses the scatter+ script

Radish of the Opera

?

David

17:14

I can guess who worked on the scripts.py file...

GiantCowFilms

pasteall.org/blend/37039

Radish of the Opera

it looks like two working zombies appear and try to get to the jeep... then a bunch of ones just appear on the head

GiantCowFilms

^^Everything works, includes programmatic scatter

someonewithpc

@David The person who actually knows Python?

GiantCowFilms

@RadishoftheOpera Yes, the two chasing the jeep are from the scatter

David

17:16

@someonewithpc no, there is a giant X-27 at the bottom.

someonewithpc

@David Oh,,,,

That might be related

GiantCowFilms

I can change it back to the player if need, I was just testing

pythonic change of target

@RadishoftheOpera You can use that new one if you must

Radish of the Opera

@GiantCowFilms Awesome, I like that one better

GiantCowFilms

I'm said to see most of my work lost

however, look at zombieMaster

it is very good

it can be knocked by a player/jeep easily

David

@GiantCowFilms did you put 3 functions at the bottom of scripts.py?

Radish of the Opera

17:19

@GiantCowFilms what was most of your work?

GiantCowFilms

@David no

David

anything in scripts.py?

GiantCowFilms

@RadishoftheOpera The jeep intergration

it was working near perfect

except for the fact that the player was left behind

Radish of the Opera

@GiantCowFilms but how did that change the way the zombies reacted?

GiantCowFilms

@RadishoftheOpera I could shoot 'em with the jeep

Look at zombie master

he has a new property, Solid

Radish of the Opera

17:21

@GiantCowFilms but why were they vegitiblehs?

GiantCowFilms

the ground plane should have it two

David

@RadishoftheOpera in the version you gave me the jeep is broken..

GiantCowFilms

there is also some logic bricks that kill him when the explosion goes boomy!

Radish of the Opera

@David /

get in it

GiantCowFilms

@RadishoftheOpera Dunno

the clones were not working at all, almost as if they weren't even executing the logic

Radish of the Opera

17:22

@GiantCowFilms maybe....

GiantCowFilms

Proposed Solution:

Radish of the Opera

they start in state 2, right?

GiantCowFilms

@RadishoftheOpera O.o?

Radish of the Opera

the collision with the ground sets them to state 1

that's the state that they track people down at...

for some reason that wasn't activating?

GiantCowFilms

Nope... ALL the logic was dud

David

17:25

@RadishoftheOpera .that is just NOT right

Radish of the Opera

@GiantCowFilms just tested, that was the reason, but now how to get them to detect the ground????

TARDIS Maker

@David I wonder why

GiantCowFilms

@RadishoftheOpera Do jeep hits kill them

they should

Radish of the Opera

FIXED!!! :D :D :D :D

David

@RadishoftheOpera ok, first off I'm making your scene more orignised, so I can fix stuff. then make the jeep always work (with the wheels) then make the player get in the jeep.

GiantCowFilms

17:30

@RadishoftheOpera So we are using cow edition, send it to me!

@David We are using cow scene now

@David My version already does nearly all that

David

@GiantCowFilms figured. grr (I asked for the most recent version...)

GiantCowFilms

@David wait for the radish's update

Radish of the Opera

@David hold on one sec...

@David we just need a way so the zombies always follow the player, but I don't know how to make him get in the car!

Uploading

GiantCowFilms

@RadishoftheOpera In my version I can change the loyalty with python

So we can just dump the player, and move all the characteristics to the jeep

Radish of the Opera

pasteall.org/blend/37040

@GiantCowFilms or if we took the player along they could still follow him, or the jeep, but we want the player to be able to dismount

I even made it so that when you ram a zombie (doesn't kill him yet) sends him flying and puts him out of it for a while

@David as long as the player gets in the jeep we should be good

TARDIS Maker

17:38

@RadishoftheOpera @GiantCowFilms @David Can I help?

I could model stuff :)

I'd be useless at anything else

Radish of the Opera

@TARDISMaker sure!

David

@TARDISMaker that is what I said, then they have running through, a mess of logic unnamed objects and python...

Radish of the Opera

could you make some modular pieces we could use in modern buildings?

@David lol

David

@RadishoftheOpera I already did that...

Radish of the Opera

welcome to my world

@David !

GiantCowFilms

17:39

@RadishoftheOpera I got the clones to die under hit, uploading

Radish of the Opera

that fast?

@GiantCowFilms >:)

now we're getting places

David

@RadishoftheOpera nope, you do know I use blender for more then your zombe game.

Radish of the Opera

@David oh...

you do <JK>

David

it jumped from 3mb to 9!

Radish of the Opera

?

@David !

GiantCowFilms

17:40

pasteall.org/blend/37041

Radish of the Opera

when?

GiantCowFilms

@David, @RadishoftheOpera, @TARDISMaker Latest version

David

@RadishoftheOpera between the two files you just had me download.

GiantCowFilms

Guys, my advice now is to use asset linking

so we can work on different parts without making it blow up

TARDIS Maker

@GiantCowFilms Okay

We should probably get a github repo up then

David

17:41

@GiantCowFilms good idea, but very trouble prone, epically in this production.

GiantCowFilms

ONE person should work on that

Yes, otherwise we have to take turns making fixes

David

who is making a repo?

GiantCowFilms

I can

David

deal

Radish of the Opera

who works on what then\? cause we don't want to have multiple different versions with different updates?

GiantCowFilms

17:42

@RadishoftheOpera Make a github acount

TARDIS Maker

I want to do mostly modeling

Radish of the Opera

hen

lol

David

@TARDISMaker modeling is great, and the easiest to integrate.

GiantCowFilms

@RadishoftheOpera We will use asset linking and break it up into tiny pieces

TARDIS Maker

@GiantCowFilms We should just make sure that one person works on something at a time

David

17:43

all you have to do is see what needs modeling, and then you could even work in a different file. When you are done we move your object in the the "master game blend."

Radish of the Opera

@GiantCowFilms I have one

TARDIS Maker

Also, lets make a new chat room, so that we don't clutter this one for the people who aren't interested in the game

GiantCowFilms

@RadishoftheOpera Whats your username

@David you've been added as a collaborator

@TARDISMaker Yes

Radish of the Opera

@GiantCowFilms VScalia

github.com/VScalia

TARDIS Maker

If you haven't figured out mine, I'm TARDIS-Maker

github.com/TARDIS-Maker

GiantCowFilms

17:45

I'll be adding the main file in secound

tough it is a fail, lol

Radish of the Opera

im completely lost as to how github works so someone will have to fill me in

GiantCowFilms

best typo ever

@RadishoftheOpera Hang on

Okay, the main file is in!

@David would you mind breaking it up into assets

nobody else touch it

Radish of the Opera

ZombieGame-8?

GiantCowFilms

please use relative paths

@RadishoftheOpera Yes

I keep a version copy so I can back track

TARDIS Maker

Have you added me yet?

GiantCowFilms

17:48

@TARDISMaker Yes, but don't start work yet

TARDIS Maker

Okay

GiantCowFilms

@David Hello?

Radish of the Opera

it says I'm watchin it. is that a good thing?

David

@GiantCowFilms ok, will do. but that will harl all other progress for now.

GiantCowFilms

Can you break it into its parts

@David Better do it now

You can remname the file to ZombieGame-1

David

17:49

then let me stop talking and get to work :)

Radish of the Opera

player, zombies, environment, jeep should all be different parts

GiantCowFilms

and then make all the scripts and everything seperate files

Yup

@David Okay, call back when you're done

Radish of the Opera

@GiantCowFilms add @X-27

TARDIS Maker

Especially the scripts

GiantCowFilms

AND USE relative paths

@RadishoftheOpera already done

TARDIS Maker

17:50

That's what github is good at tracking

Radish of the Opera

o yeah, and scripts.

David

ok :)

Radish of the Opera

almost forgot about those guys

David

...working...

Radish of the Opera

David, are you done yet?

lol

should I put the jeep file in a folder there?

David

17:52

nearly, I just cloned an empty git repo :)

GiantCowFilms

@David I added the file

TARDIS Maker

Okay

I'm making a new chat room for this

Radish of the Opera

i feel useless...

TARDIS Maker

Should I make it so that only people working on it should be able to talk?

GiantCowFilms

@RadishoftheOpera We are just organizing

David

17:53

@GiantCowFilms I saw, so it was not empty...

GiantCowFilms

@TARDISMaker Nah

Radish of the Opera

eating a tuna sandwich while you guys do things i don't understand.

TARDIS Maker

BGE - Dinosaurs

Room for the people collaborating on The Game Where You Don't ...

Radish of the Opera

oi, it's bright in here

TARDIS Maker

@GiantCowFilms @RadishoftheOpera @David

:)

David

17:55

can somebody please tell me why you have the second camera and title screen to the side of everything on the main layer?

GiantCowFilms

@David Don't worry about that yet

TARDIS Maker

@David Look above

Radish of the Opera

@David because I'm lazy and was using my other hand to wash dishes

GiantCowFilms

@David, Yo!

in here

@X-27 you to, @TARDISMaker ping him in main

someonewithpc

It's weird that there's so much white space

David

17:56

I'm here

TARDIS Maker

@someonewithpc It is

David

do you want me to move all the talk from the render farm into here?

TARDIS Maker

Okay

So what do you guys need me to model?

Radish of the Opera

@David that'll fix the white...

TARDIS Maker

I can do it in an external file so it doesn't effect the actual game

@David Yeah, that would be good

Radish of the Opera

17:57

@TARDISMaker um.. apparently david already did modular pieces... so maybe you could assemble them?

TARDIS Maker

@RadishoftheOpera Okay, so make a nice enviroment with them?

Radish of the Opera

@TARDISMaker no, we don't want a nice environment, we're talking zombies here

make it look like doomsday
