Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on January 20, 2006, 05:44:00 am
Update [01/20/06]:
I am going to finish this within the next 2-3 months!

Things added since last update:
-Changed the scoreing system.
-Made a scoreing table.
-Added which letter grade you recieve.
-Made it easier to detect which key is pressed.

Things to be added:
-More songs.
-Scrollable song lists.
-Pauses for ingame play.
-Air time (ddr fans will know what I am talking about).

This supports users createing their own levels. Other info about this game can be found at http://www.kalan.us/currentprojects.htm, http://joepnet.com/hosted/maxcoderz/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=37041#37041, http://www.revsoft.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=3653#3653.

Cool, try to make it run faster that XXR XD
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on January 20, 2006, 03:01:00 pm
Oh it will easyly, but it will not be as graphical as xxr as it is ascii. I have it running so fast that I can't score one point! (then agian I am a white boy with almost no skill!). Maybe if I had a cool mustach like someone... ;)wink.gif

Ok, I am going to finish this game quickly so I can get it off of my todo list! Since I have a new idea for and game that I hope to work on soon!

cool I hope to be able to play the new version soon!

Yeah well after looking at it, I have got to say EWWW. I use one program for the engine and one for data/menus.....Well I have some reworking to do, like the way I call for things in the data file...
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 02, 2006, 02:35:00 am
do u plan to add more features such as level editor and external levels?
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 02, 2006, 04:42:00 am
I do have a built in level editor, but I don't really plan on external levels as you can make them in your game.

oh I c, cool
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 04, 2006, 03:25:00 pm
Started looking over this and getting bored with it....But that's what side projects are for! :Dbiggrin.gif

Are you still working on this project? :(sad.gif
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 09, 2006, 11:50:00 am
Hehe, I am looking at it on my calc....I just haven't found the modivation to work on it atm, thanks for showing intrest!
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 09, 2006, 02:02:00 pm
i hope this is finished, were you planning to add new features?
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 09, 2006, 02:21:00 pm
Well before I do that I need to fix some errors. When you play a round it will determine if you made the highscore or not then return you to the title screen or song list. But the error is when you start another song it will display HIGHSCORE! even though you just started a new song....Easly fixable (it's just a varible that is off).

Post by: kalan_vod on February 11, 2006, 07:22:00 am
I made some major progress on this last night, just wanted you guys to know it will be some much better than the old version.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 11, 2006, 09:57:00 am
nice, how fast it is so far?
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 11, 2006, 11:42:00 am
It still is fast like always, I will have to add the Air Time function which will not be too hard.

Post by: CDI on February 13, 2006, 11:44:00 am
what is wrong with english names?!?!?!? *CDI
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: dysfunction on February 13, 2006, 02:23:00 pm
Heh it's cool to name your games in foreign languages. That's why all of the chapters in Aura will be titled in Latin.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: Spellshaper on February 14, 2006, 01:38:00 am
yup... but english is still the universal language everyone understands, so...
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 14, 2006, 04:09:00 am
still run tho because it still reminds me Dance Dance revolution :Dbiggrin.gif Also its different than always using the same name over and over in remakes of games.  Some people use 1337 in game titles anyway :)smile.gif  *cough*M4r10*cough*
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 14, 2006, 06:50:00 am
I need something that would stand out of the pack, there are plenty of Dance Dance Revolution games on ticalc. This is german for Dance Dance Revolution, well thats what freetranslations.com says :Pblah.gif.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: Spellshaper on February 14, 2006, 07:06:00 am
Ah, I thought u purposefully set that name up knowing exactly what it means ^^

"Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution" translated back into english means "Lets dance the dance revolution", what sounds a bit funny ^^

:Dbiggrin.gif
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 14, 2006, 07:11:00 am
hehe lol, in french its even worse
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 14, 2006, 08:40:00 am
I am aware of the ss, but it still is better than haveing 15 DDR games in basic on ticalc.org.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 15, 2006, 03:03:00 am
yeah, I had to try all of them to figure out only one or two were decent :Pblah.gif
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: CDI on February 15, 2006, 09:26:00 am
FFR and XXR ^-^ j/k I liked a few others
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 17, 2006, 06:58:00 am
Well all I need now is to make the levels...Seems easy but I have a tedency to be lazy ;)wink.gif. So I will either have a new ss this weekend or I will work on the levels. Sorry I have been busy lately working on my redesign of my website, and I really want to get it finished this weekend also..
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 17, 2006, 01:06:00 pm
I wish ppl made levels for xxr :(sad.gif
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 17, 2006, 01:08:00 pm
Well I would like to, but I am not much into doing stuff with others code.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 17, 2006, 01:56:00 pm
now to make that FFR<>XXR<>TST level converter... %)rolleyes2.gif
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 17, 2006, 01:59:00 pm
LOL, I highly doubt you guys have haults (air time in ddr). But that would be really cool!
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 17, 2006, 02:06:00 pm
yeah we can just disable some features in games. Like FFR doesnt have custom song speed  but xxr does and xxr has SE only levels so I can remove some stuff in the list and convert
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 17, 2006, 02:07:00 pm
Well let me finish this up and then we can talk :Dbiggrin.gif.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 17, 2006, 02:08:00 pm
well then I need the motivation and time to do it :?confused.gif
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 17, 2006, 02:11:00 pm
Hah, me too. When I make ddr levels I try to make them as close to the real song. That mean I have to play some ddr :Dbiggrin.gif.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 17, 2006, 02:12:00 pm
At least it should be easy to convert. I wish I had time to redo original DDR simfiles for my game :(sad.gif
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 17, 2006, 02:15:00 pm
Thanks to kevins' idea, I might make the levels compress, and I will regulate the game speed by decrypting the levels!
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 17, 2006, 02:16:00 pm
for the level converter just let me know of the encryption/decryption formula though so I can do the converting easier >.<
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 17, 2006, 02:17:00 pm
Yeah it wouldn't be hard, I made one before for compwiz and it was basicly (-54125+3,1) that would be 3 times of 1.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 17, 2006, 02:27:00 pm
converting to strings might work too, but it would be slow to convert on the flow
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 17, 2006, 02:29:00 pm
Converting the string names? Well yours might not since it works with graphics and mine uses ascii.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 17, 2006, 02:32:00 pm
I meant List->string conversion
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 17, 2006, 02:33:00 pm
Ahh, well I they are mostly less than 16 char strings (they are stored in one large string).
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 17, 2006, 02:35:00 pm
kk i c
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 17, 2006, 03:07:00 pm
Well I just rewrote the engine to surport compressed levels, and it wasn't that good. It ran fine, but not all levels would be saving bytes but adding more. IE: if the keys aren't consistant.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 17, 2006, 03:38:00 pm
i c, should be fine with non compressed lvs anyway
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 17, 2006, 04:34:00 pm
The levels havebeen completed, now all I have left is to complete the readme and make a few optimizations.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 18, 2006, 02:18:00 am
cool this means we will be able to play soon? %)rolleyes2.gif dont forget to send it to me once finished so I can add it on the website asap because ticalc.org might take a while to do so <_<dry.gif
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 18, 2006, 08:01:00 am
Yeah, last night weregoose did a few optimizations and it runs too fast again! So I am thinking I need to place a better wait inside the program.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 18, 2006, 01:13:00 pm
if it runs too fast maybe you could allow customising speed in songs? Like xxr
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 18, 2006, 04:15:00 pm
Well atm I have the difficulty effect it, then also if it's a 83+ or not. But I was thinking that I could make songs that ran a certain speeds, just like the real deal.
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 18, 2006, 04:18:00 pm
yeah thats what i though
Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 20, 2006, 08:22:00 pm

BAD NEWS!
Thanks to someones program (a game) I lost all my files for TST, except the old backup.....I am not happy and really thinking twice before starting back up with calcs.

Post by: dragon__lance on February 21, 2006, 12:52:00 pm

Title: Tanzen Sie Tanzrevolution
Post by: kalan_vod on February 21, 2006, 03:19:00 pm
