It's not just shooting games you can create, you can also create RPG / Puzzle types. Take a look here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQEMpiLqtJA


Search for "HellHouse" in Showcase.

Well, I feel sorry for your mom. That's terrible! Really. Where do you guys live? I can't imagine that.

Anyways, tell her that making a video game is something that you are really interested in, and not all first person games have to be violent. A guy from around here made a fairly successful game, in which the main character's weapon was a squirt gun.

In the setuplevel.fpi when you build your game, under skybox browse for a different skybox

add night time lighting?
just use a normal light i guess, but make it dull

Butters used a program called FPSPack for his Umbra game and his Fall of the Fireflies demo.

I don't really know. I don't really think that people read stickies that often, though.

Sorry for the delay in responses, but some of you guys are on post approval, and your posts don't show up for a while.

You need the .exe, the "Files" folder and all of its contents, and the two .ini files.

My noobish question is, how to recognize a sound file's pitch(thus recognizing what is on the file) in any DB/DBP version(i bought all far back..)The only way i could ever figure out is to make a tone beep and use change speed commands and then reading from a variable but it's not really useful.

Yes, you can.

They must have the entire folder created by the build game process.
They must have the latest update to DirectX, 9.0c
They must have windows 2000 or newer OS.
They must meet the minimum system requirements for the game.

Have your friends updste DirectX to the latest version and if all else looks good, that should fix the problem.

Best.

Edit: TGC put out a small exe that checks your system for compatability. I don't remember where it is.

If I was not supposed to resond here, my apologies. I started to answer before I realized it was your newb thread.

No man, it's actually really helpful. One less question for me to answer.

Also, I see you liked my picture I posted in GP's thread before it got locked. I had a good chuckle over that one too.

If you read my post, you would realize that issues like these are due to post approval. Most of the time, those posts don't show up until we've moved onto a new page, or it's buried by all of the other posts. You think I have been to busy joking, rather than helping them? If this was the case, I would've called it Inspire's Noob Joke Thread.

He didn't say you were too busy, he said you were too buzy. I'm not sure what that is, but it doesn't sound like something you would brag about.

The bottom line is...... the bottom line is (I always like to repeat myself for dramatic effect just before I say something brilliant) that he found one that you missed so that negates all of the good this thread has done and makes you worthless.

Now, what is the proper way to ask a question on the forum and what is the importance of wording it properly?

Dark Jaguar Flame,

No, that is not the problem. Your friends do NOT need FPSC. They need to do what I said earlier.

Are you asking about a single or multi-player game?
