Oh, and in case any of you want to know, I think I'm gonna invest $200 there and see if it pays back. If I lose it, it won't be such a huge loss after all.
Sorry about the violation though!

I would like to point out that TrollWin himself is doing something against the rules.
But yes, I found the part where they forbid linking to referral sites. I apologize. Thanks for the help though!
Lock and/or remove topic, admins?

Oh. Thought I checked if it's against the terms of service. Sorry about that. Could you just point me to the place where it says so. Just to be sure.
And to be honest, I really am just looking for an opinion, not trying to get any of you to join unless you yourself necessarily want to.

Also, I've never started a general discussion topic here before so accusing me of continuously spamming and calling me an asshole is in my opinion quite uncalled for.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize that's considered spamming. Just wanted some opinions from some people that might now something about internet scams and moneymaking.
Cheers, forum!
A few days back I found this site called Neobux which promises you money for looking at ads. I actually did click for a few days and got my first 2 dollars to my paypal account. Hey, it's free money!
Now I'm thinking of further investing to this site so I thought it would be a good idea to ask you guys if you know anything about this site? To me it looks a bit like a scam but wanted to hear your opinions and experiences about the site. Should I invest my flash game earnings there?
Here's a link to the site.
Thanks!
Here's a sample of the animation style im going for:

Nothing fancy. :)
You're right. But the fact is, all animations will be 12fps and the walk cycles usually require around 6-10 frames. Attacks require a maximum of 8 frames. Also I'm hoping for more than one artist for the project so that the work wouldn't be so overwhelming.

I'm really sorry about this, it's not my good day...
Here's the working one:
//this function will convert any real angles to flash angles
function realAngle(angle){
if(angle>360){
angle = angle-360*Math.floor(Math.abs(angle)/360)
}
if(angle<-360){
angle = angle+360*Math.floor(Math.abs(angle)/360)
}
if(angle>180){
angle = angle-360;
}
return angle;
}
//this function will convert any flash angles to real angles
function realAngle(angle){
if(angle>360){
angle = angle-360*Math.floor(Math.abs(angle)/360)
}
if(angle<-360){
angle = angle+360*Math.floor(Math.abs(angle)/360)
}
if(angle<0){
angle = angle+360;
}
return angle;
}
actually that was really stupid.
use this instead:
//this function will convert any real angles to flash angles
function realAngle(angle){
if(Math.abs(angle)>360){
angle = angle-360*Math.floor(angle/360)
}
if(angle>180){
angle = angle-360;
}
return angle;
}
//this function will convert any flash angles to real angles
function realAngle(angle){
if(Math.abs(angle)>360){
angle = angle-360*Math.floor(angle/360)
}
if(angle<0){
angle = angle+360;
}
return angle;
}
//this function will convert any real angles to flash angles
function realAngle(angle){
if(angle>360){
angle = angle-360*Math.floor(angle/360)
}
if(angle<-360){
angle = angle+360*Math.floor(angle/360)
}
if(angle>180){
angle = angle-360;
}
return angle;
}
//this function will convert any flash angles to real angles
function realAngle(angle){
if(angle>360){
angle = angle-360*Math.floor(angle/360)
}
if(angle<-360){
angle = angle+360*Math.floor(angle/360)
}
if(angle<0){
angle = angle+360;
}
return angle;
}

a way to get tit to go there.
enemy.spd = 3
enemy.onEnterFrame = function(){
this.dist = Math.sqrt(Math.pow(this._x-targetx, 2)+Math.pow(this._y-targety, 2))
if(this.dist>this.spd){
this.agl = Math.atan2(targety-this._y, targetx-this._x)

I think I need at least 30 different objects to the main gameplay such as castles, buildings and artifacts. Plus of course I will need at least 15 types of monsters to fight and NPCs. Then there's menu art, and scenery. But I think that's about it then.
Update!
Here's an illustration of how the battles will look like:

Yes, that is the current state of the engine. I have not realized yet, how the battles will come about or much of anything else. It's in a very early stage.
I'm looking for a team to give me ideas and do graphics for a new RPG game. All I have at the moment is the main game engine, and have no idea what to do with it. The game is basically going to be based on the old Heroes of Might and Magic-series. Which explains the influence on the game engine.
Go check the engine out:

Here's what you need to join:
- Previous experience in game design
- Flash 8 or above. (license)
- A PayPal account for revenue sharing.
javascript:BBSPost.Save();
The theme is obviously gonna be fantasy/medieval with castles, swords, dragons and such. So if you have previous experience with that kind of stuff, it will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
Go to the Flash portal, open a random flash, then scroll up and down.
Yes, it is possible but doesn't work very well as you see. The movie starts twitching and moves to odd spots. I think the only way to do what you're trying to do would be using javascript, not flash.

Just wanted to demonstrate that you can just move the piece of script to the mousedown event.
Obviously you don't need the boolean.
At 2/8/09 04:05 PM, BillysProgrammer wrote: That wont work. When you just have onMouseDown = function, its saying a mouse click ANYWHERE
I am fully aware of that, my good sir. I am still not sure if mikkim wants a button or a mouse down event thus I gave him options. :)
At 2/8/09 03:54 PM, Kirk-Cocaine wrote: @mikkim:
You're original code is fine, but Flash only checks the the if statement once, it needs to be on an onEnterFrame function:
onEnterFrame = function () {
if (pressed == true) {
gotoAndPlay(5);
}
};
But why would you want to test it each frame? Why not add it to the original mouse event?
onMouseDown = function() {
pressed = true
if(pressed){
//obviously its pressed
gotoAndPlay(3)
}
}

Haha, exactly! :)
At 2/8/09 03:42 PM, mikkim wrote: i'm hitting the button, but the button isn't making it goto frame 3.
In AS2 this would work:
button.onRelease = function(){
gotoAndStop(3)
}
I'm not really quite sure what you're trying to do with that. AS3 doesn't have onMouseDown anymore.
Here's how you create a mouse down event:
var pressed:Boolean = false
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_
DOWN, mousedown);
function mousedown(event:MouseEvent){
pressed=true
}
Alternatively, if you want to create a button on release event:
var pressed:Boolean = false
button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE _UP, onrelease);
function onrelease(event:MouseEvent){
pressed=true
}
I hope this helps! :)
Awesome game! I could help you with the sounds and all the other stuff too. So why not join my team? Check out my stuff. You would be welcome to ZuiGe's staff.
Free beta testing, free ideas from people. Plus of course you can ask us to do things to the game. I myself am quite an expert with AI and sounds, and just plain actionscript.

And yes, newsflash, the decay is constant. There's no possible way it CAN'T be constant, it's the property of the matter itself. You couldn't even change it if you wanted to, unless you destroyed the elements in a nuclear reactor, which doesn't happen in nature except in a SUN.
I admire your blind faith. I could never believe in scientists that blindly. Sometimes it's hard for me to have faith in God to the level you trust scientists! After all, scientists are people too. People are cabable of lying and making mistakes. God in the other hand...
How many people in the world have seen how radiometric dating works? How many people know how we calculate the amount of isotopes? I wanna go see that myself before I believe it works.
I myself don't know how people have calculated the earth to be 6600 years old according to the bible. I haven't found the verse saying that God created the earth 4600 years before christ. People in the Bible have lived hundreds of years so it wouldn't be impossible that the earth is older than 10 000 years old, of course. I suppose 6600 years just makes the most sense. Not saying it's the truth tho, I just don't know.

The known world back then is the world all people lived in. After the flood people started travelling to places. Only one man and his family was rescued from the flood. Thereby no human at that time was living outside the flood zone.
All the other flood stories are myth or minor events.
Could you send me to a copy of couple of those stories? Link perhaps?
Anyway, I could devote days to telling you about all the way in which the flood story is retarded but you probably wouldn't read.
If you want to know more, tell me.
I'm being very open minded here so point me to a book that will convert me into believing the theory of evolution or better yet, do that yourself. And let me ask questions without laughing and/or insulting me, you could for example answer them?

Sure, I'll read a book that tells me how stuff comes out of nowhere, or how you can defy the very basic laws of physics. I'll be glad to. Just point me a book that does that.

wow, long sentence.
Do this if you're not sure whether its real or a parabel.
1. Check if it says "parabel" in the context.
2. Check if the part is mentioned many times, if not more than once, most likely a metaphor.
Also make sure you're reading it in the context. You can't just pick verses around the Bible and just do whatever they say. Read the whole context. Just like you would do in a normal textbook.
Using common sense can be good when reading the Bible.
Don't take my advice if that doesn't make sense to you.
Sorry, didn't finish my sentence there.

- prove something, they hide it. Remember the case of an evolutionist editing pictures of fetuses of different species to look the same? Even though scientists today know that's a bunch of bullcrap you see that picture in many evolution books.

(1) In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.Then the 7 days happens, but it may or may not take 7 days.
Dinosaurs come and stuff. The meteor comes and destroys the world.
(2) Now the earth was a formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
(3) And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. [blablabla, the rest of the 7 days...]
That doesn't really make sense. Aren't dinosaurs animals then? Did the dinosaurs live without light? Was the earth formless back then?
That's just how God explained it to us. It didn't necessarily take exactly 7 days, that is what we call a metaphor. Could've happened in a split second or a billion years.
On the 7th day everything was done so God rested. That was the time when all people and animals lived in the same place called the garden of eden. Yupp, dinosaurs too!
