I need to write an article about slice handles. They are not an easy concept for non-programmers and new programmers. The reason the code you quoted didn't work is because it was creating four separate rectangle slices and throwing away the handles to them. If you want a single rectangle, you only n...

Good? Hawaiiish? It was a relaxing vacation. Not sure exactly what you're looking for here, but we enjoyed it. We are looking you to post a photo of yourself and your wife wearing grass skirts and flower lays and eating a pig at a luau. Or surfing a big ol' wave. That will also suffice. You know th...

You can post on Sept 1st and not be late.

And late entries are fine, there is just a small scoring penalty for each day

I am also definitely not going to be finishing Wandering Hamster, but I will release a new demo with the stuff I have finished.

I hope you will post a copy of it anyway. Even if it doesn't pass the "complete" test, it still seems interesting and fun.

Did you actually look at gorillas.bas source code as a reference, or did you do it all from scratch from memory?

So Monday and Tuesday, I wake up early, spend more than 1 hour driving both ways, and 10 hours at school, including breaks and lab-time. That's more than a full-time job, so I hereby declare that no game work will be done on Monday or Tuesday, and this thread won't be updated. Find another student ...

Gohrillas - Video Review & First Impression

Mogri deserves kudos for this, the latest in a growing series of remakes of classic games in OHRRPGCE format. Gohrillas is a clean and polished port of gorillas.bas to the OHRRPGCE. The game is simple to play but features some things not often seen on OHR games. It makes clever use of sprite slices,...

Yes. If the map ID number is the same, it shouln't be to hard. First make a backup copy of both the old and new files, in case something goes wrong. Then use unlump.exe to extract both the old and new rpg files to folders. Give them different names so you can tell them apart. So suppose we are talki...

It is strange that there is so much inconsistency with this one. I wonder if this is actually caused by some Vista driver for common sound cards. That might explain why it only happens on vista, but never happens to some vista users. Only One In All: What about MIDI files? BAM and MIDI are played al...

After a summer-long hiatus of summer camps and vacations, it's finally completed. I have some older builds of the game lying around somewhere, but I won't bother. Welcome, godsavant! Your entry is sudden and stealthy like the ninja! I tried it on Linux using Wine, and bafflingly it runs, but everyt...
