mrmiguu Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 The sizes are dynamic along with the dynamic animations. As long as you keep each sprite's size 30x30 or 40x40 you can have as many frames as you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coza Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Oh awesome :D so it's best to keep the same base size, even if there's a big gap in some sprites as opposed to others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 @MrMiguu:> The sizes are dynamic along with the dynamic animations.If you're using D3D8 then you'll be ostracising a lot of the playerbase. You need to limit textures to 256x256 or below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Use surfaces for that. Anything over 256x256 won't be supported on older graphics cards and especially onboard chipsets. You need to also keep them POT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PotHead Zach Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Well MrMiguu, I recently stopped making a game with your engine…But I saw you updated it, and I accidently said "I love it, I'm making my game" aloud.I love you <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coza Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Ah right that makes sence, in Sonic's case i should probably have that as 250 anyway. :azn:As for the other properties```FRAMES_STANDING=1FRAMES_WALKING=8FRAMES_RUNNING=4FRAMES_ATTACKING=4FRAMES_JUMPING=4FRAMES_FALLING=4FRAMES_LENGTH=500```Also (random question) do you think it'll be possible to script in glide/fly options for Knux and Tails.(Not for you to do it personally, jut like if it could be possible) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmiguu Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 You have 19 counted FRAMES_BLAH but you have 24 sprites of sonic. They don't add up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coza Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Alright i'll fix that up and see if the problem persists.Sorry to ask this againg but,Also (random question) do you think it'll be possible to script in glide/fly options for Knux and Tails.(Not for you to do it personally, jut like if it could be possible) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coza Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Yeah, the engine seems perfect for it, i'm basing mine around the Genisis years, loads of Classic stuff.Got alot of tiles already.I Hope yours goes well :O It'll be fun to test out.Omg i love this engine :D. It's comming along really well. one dilema though, i've got all my Background Images for my maps, is there a way to select the background for each individual map?AKA; I Had to travel to map 16 to get the Background i wanted…. is theire a way around this?

Wich means genesis tiles but advance style characters. And later ingame you'll choose a side, the one will have advanced style tiles, the other will be even older (8bit)~Last thing off-topic, if you want to answer PM me please Coza ;)~–And like DAK3 said I would like to know when there will be released a demo or a beta of project vertigo. :)@RisingShine nooo Keep it on 32x32 please XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takuya Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 To MrMiguu: i am wondering, will there be combo attacks, and spells that deal damage multiple times (like, a spell/skill that makes your character attack an enemy multiple times, in a short amount of time) in your next version of PV? sorry for all the questions, im just curious.

DAK3 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 how can i change in PV (origins) the "max" map? players? ECT… pls help:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coza Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Sounds interesting, surely worth a look into, Hedgy, i'll post you with a BETA Once i got the hang of things and such.So many questions for Miguu so….much.. time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very simple to make. Remind me once the engine is released to make a tutorial source edit in favor of this edit for you.@DAK3:> Mrmiguu when realse the new version of this engine? its the best like you and this :DI have **NO IDEA**. lulz.@hedgy:> Lol coza you're going to make a sonic game with it too I see :P I wanted to rebuilt my sonic game in the next version of project vertigo.

Like Eclipse, you will only have to change one number.@takuya:> To MrMiguu: I am wondering, will there be combo attacks, and spells that deal damage multiple times (like, a spell/skill that makes your character attack an enemy multiple times, in a short amount of time) in your next version of PV? sorry for all the questions, im just curious.This engine is being made to be as basic as possible. Don't expect anything too awesome in it. If you want awesome features, that's where you, the developer, will come in. I would have to say no for the combo system and yes for the barrage-spell attributes.@DAK3:> how can I change in PV (origins) the "max" map? players? ECT… pls help:)Same way as in Eclipse Origins.
