Love that episode :D....

Think that CS3 will be more compatible? and you'd think there would be no compatibility problems as far as typing } and { goes.... what a nub, like get better at programming gates plzkthxbai!

Well, I just got a new computer the other day, Vista unfortunately since I had no other choice and am too lazy to uninstall vista and re-install XP blah but anyways... I installed flash yesterday and had no time to use it till just now when of course the second I start programming a sign of incompatibility turns up... for me at least...

Heres the problem, it won't let me type { instead it shows up as ^^ if I press it twice, nothing the first time. And with typing } it shows up as ,
Is my problem with Vista or the copy of Flash I have installed? Please tell me somebody out there knows what I can do to fix this problem Post Haste!

Thanks

Hes asking for help to make it better... I don't think he was intending on keeping the lvl you currently can play.

Anyways, are you going to change the hitTests at all so he doesn't stick in the middle of platforms or was that an intended effect? And how many lvls are you planning on and how big? There are easy ways to get around making good levels fast with hardly any skill required.

Yes, crazily annoying! But theres already been enough controversy over that ad.

Thing is, it's not a popup, it's just a simple banner... so it can't really be blocked...

I've been browsing newgrounds the past hour or so when I ran into what seems to be the new ad that newgrounds picked up. Quite honestly I hate ads period and there is an easier way to show ads without annoying people but this ad has crossed the line!

The ad I'm talking about is the one that includes noise as soon as the page loads which says: "Congratulations you have been selected to recieve the new Ipod Nano" or something along those lines out loud. I'm hoping that Tom or Wade read this or someone who can do something about it because I know for a fact that people will stop comming to newgrounds if all ads are going to include audio!

The reason I started this thread is because I want to know what everyone else thinks of this ad and to protest the audio-ads aswell!

Have you read the BBS rules? And even if you had a 3.00+ batting average like me, you would have to explain what the collab was about and give descriptions to the people who are trying to get in the collab such as size, FPS, and style or restrictions. Please read the rules, and be thankful this thread hasn't been locked because you don't even have 1 submission.

Regardless, I still have more comments to make about what you've said in this thread.
- It's not 7331, it's 1337 hense leet being spelled L E E T not T E E L.
- Everyone knows about 1337 speak, don't try to be special by thinking you know more than the people on this site, thats not going to work out for most of the people on this site are pure genius.
- Don't argue with people on this site or you'll get banned, make sure you know enough about something before you say something is true.

You lose, try again? Y/N

LOL, i love how that is the ultimate insult on newgrounds.

In all honesty, you should be able to figure that out on your own by examing the code you already have.

Just my opinion though.

lol, what can I say, I'm just that original! :D

If you publish it as a mpeg and go download the free version of Total Video Converter, you can easily switch it over to AVI and total video converter is easy and simple! :D

The reason why this wont work is becuase of this:

Flash by thewarriorsrok:
- none -

Basically what you want to do is make a hittest point on the top of your character and when it hits the platform it does the same as when you're landing on it with your feet except opposite basically.

If you show your script I can write a sample for you if I don't leave before you respond

Try my tutorial, if you have problems with it, though you shouldn't, PM me, but this is an easy way to make a good preloader.

you could make a 3d helicopter game with the tail and make the balls into segments of a creature and have it so when the wall is a certain height then it is a hittest to see if you die and you can have the walls getting bigger and bigger and you just avoid them as if you are flying towards them and dodging them

It's actually quite easy but theres a bunch of codes to place in various places, and I think it may be the easiest way to make a ragdoll out there so I might even just try for that!

Anyways I'm not too much into 3d programming, and theres an easier way than doing

have it so when the wall is a certain height then it is a hittest to see if you die

you don't need need to determine the wall height to do that,,, lol

Alright idea but not quite what I was looking for.

Any other suggestions?

Woah, messed up the links, here!

Tail

Hey everyone,

A few days I was playing around with this strange little script I had randomly come up with, it is working really well I find, a neat little effect but I don't know what to do with it! I made these two things below with it, what else could I include?

http://www.swfupload.com/view/129732.htm
This is just a little ball that you control with the arrow keys, has a tail, warning this wasn't meant to look good, so there are random different coloured balls strung together with lines as graphics, if I made it intosomething the physics would be slightly different and it would look a lot better.

http://www.swfupload.com/view/120208.htm
This is actually fairly messed up as far as a few phyisics go, but it still works somewhat to how I wanted it too. Arrow keys again!

Got mine just a few minutes ago! Haha, I agree that the rules sheet is fairly profane but who cares! lol

Good condition it's in as shown below,,, just had to take a pic to submit with this post :D

Was suprised by the size... :|

Thanks Luis!

omfg, that and pen+paper ftw!

speed = 20
_x += speed

basically make the speed a variable that doesn't change

Things to improve upon:
Backgrounds
Remove white background form each sprite (Modify > Bitmap > Trace Bitmap)
Sounds
Story
Make it more fast paced

I think if you focus on most or all of these things it'll turn out great! Good job for a first

Making a platformer game seems a bit beyond you if you don't know that, but I know a good tutorial for making a complex platformer and it's really easy to understand!

I made this API engine a few minutes ago. tell me what you think of it. click to shoot. Also, if anyone has any ideas for a game this could be, please tell me, and i'll give you credit it if I use it.
LPP

Make it into an avoider game where you can shoot things and they can shoot you or chase you

would be good, but it's not terribly original

When i pasted it, it split random appart into ran dom,,, if you didn't notice it, thats what happened,,, newgrounds does that alot, try it with the word random full

thats not much, you just changed the point of where it starts at, lol cool effect tho

ssize = 1
rsize = 1.5
function onEnterFrame() {
ssize += rsize
if(ssize>=20){
rsize = -1.5
}else if(ssize<=2){
rsize = 1.5

A cool little effect :D

Any chance you know when your next batch are being sent? or approximate time? I'm really excited about this and hope I'm in :D

I know I was just elaborating on your point sort of because I hate people who do this kind of stuff, as long as we're all in the same boat here I'm sure we NGer's can think of a way to stop this from happening!

- Link in front banner logo changed to a blank frame
- Bevel taken out of "Orange Fox Games" in beginning logo
- "Hop to the Top" title changed to "HoP"
- When you click play, the "SELECT A TIME" is altered with only 60 seconds showing
- (play frame) title "Game Modes" taken out
- While playing, link for "tips" is removed (links to dfox's site)
- (Controls frame) All descriptions are taken out
- (Controls frame) Title "Controls" removed
- Font on the entire game is changed to arial (or some crappy font)
- (About frame) Random credits screwed up
- (Options frame) Title and most top options gone except quality selection
- (Practice frame) Title "Practice" removed
- Link to scores on the front menu is disabled
- Submit score after you play goes to their site instead of DFox's

I think I can personally say that on behalf of most people here, you should take them to court! You'll win my friend, your logo is in it!

I have a few lawyers in my family and theres no way you could lose if you took them to court, so take them to the cleaners!!!
