How so? I can't see any reason that it wouldn't as the other cameras all work the same way. If you are not adverse to letting me see some code I can try to help. No code thieving! Promise!

Well i have tried already all i know. And i get weird spots on screen.. Like its hard to explaing but its just weird. We goed trough this with Dark Coder and that was the end result..

Also i would not really like to use multiple cameras at end cuz they drain FPS and i cant see any way why there is no command to disable the set camera to image. Its just so easy to implent if Lee have done the code right way.

Ok download if you want to test it. There is not much for 5 days work But its crealy coming nice ^^

Controls are simple:
Arrowkeys: Struggle on menus
Enterkey: Accept
Shiftkey: Cancel
2: View break effect again

The break effects motion blur is the one that is not working correctly with two cameras in Flare Engine :/ It works when i do another project tho :/

Wow.. Another weird proplem! Somehow im having proplems with randomization.. Even im puttin Randomize Timer() at start of code the random is still odd..

Im getting dialogies reaally rare.. Also my AI wont work because randomization is odd :/ So it frozes the program when the calculation is refused and program forces it to calculate again.. But because random is so odd it always calculates the same (i think) thats why it frozes..

Any ideas?

Try randomizing it every loop, that might help the sitaution out

works pretty well, though you need to have timers for the player to show how long you have before an attack will work.

Nope its not ABS. Its like FFX system wich dont have that bar. Because thats more stragetic system. You see turns at top right.

Lol, I added terrorist arrow into engine and gave him Uber Stats and Auto-Haste!

When battle begin he got 4 turns in row! He killed Shadow Blade, Another Blade and Drew with attack! Then he used Fire on Milk Paton but Milk Paton stayed alive.. Finally i got turn..
In that screen im using "Quick Hit" skill and then selecting fiend. You can see fiend stats at upper left of this screen

Propaply those who plays Final Fantasy understands it best.. (Especially FFX)

I were reviring Death party members with phoenix down. Also i used Quick Hit because its faster than normal attack (I get faster turns or i can hit many times in row) and its not any weaker

If i would not use that.. Terrorist Arrow would've propaply killed me in one turn lol..

No no no

Im just writing 3d handling too. When i need PreRendered BG's (Usually when inside building or something) Im gonna code that part better than it was in first place.

So pre-rendered bgs can be used every place or just in some places

Why don't we join forces? It's better not to do 2 engines, only one, but faster and better.

Previous Q-Gears project was started from scratch, but with exact mechanics as in original games.

This is engine that can allow anyone create Square 2,5d and 3d games (Final Fantasy VII, Xenogears, Final Fantasy X and so on). Of course a great amount of work lies ahead.

You can find blog here http://community.livejournal.com/q_gears/

@Akari

Ah, Q-Gears have been always my inspiration for this project But there is one flaw. This is Dark Basic Pro. Propaply later it will be converted to DGK/C++ but thats it.

My c++ knowledge is pretty minimun and i have only made few DS games and one 3D DS Engine (Wich i lost in format) with C# and C++ languances.

If you got more info i would be really grateful to join into Q-Gears project!

UPDATE
Flare Engine supports now Action RPG's
Behold work in progress Kingdom Hearts type battle engine!




I can propaply tomorrow get the A.I Up and record a test battle

Good news. I may tomorrow look into FFVII .P model format and animations and hopefully i can get Characters rendered up with full animations!

Why i do this?
Simply because that model format is really good. The models always shows up correctly and animations works with every model if you place the model parts correctly

I also may move to c++ gdk or irrlicth.

I knew that you programming on Dark Basic Pro, but it never late to go to professional level. Three years ago I don't know c++ at all.

You can take a small part of code and work there, for example G programm sound and probably will work on video later. There are a lot of things you can take care of. For example battle engine or worldmap. Editor isn't even started yet. =)

You could help even by scripting game on this engine. We need someone to translate Final Fantasy VII to this engine (field scripts and data) =)
