8.ZSHADE for contrast (IE fall down pit, dims out, then fades in when ready
9.scrolling
10.working pickup fucnt
11.death animation and fairy revival animation
12.all code laid out very logical, it is coding and debugging is easy
13.when you displace a backgroud object, a default tile will take its place depending on location

TODO:
enemies (duh)
ppl
a better mapping system using the fg's strings
treasure chests
small graphical goodies

stuff like that...

by the way....i might not release this game to the public right away. i might sell it at my school for 1 buck. they shouldnt be able to send to others cuz xLib comes uninstalled. game=free, installation=$1 :evil:

LOL you are gonna make ppl pay for installing? well I guess it can be good when ppl annoy you to have the game on their calcs, fine, then, but if you would have said that you are going to sell the game for money I would have this thread locked and unfeatured right now, because Omnimaga wont promote shareware softwares.

btw seems like there is lot of stuff alerady done in the game, I guess the dungeons are not done yet? And the current features are awesome

Wow, that's amazing, all of it, the features, and the selling... As long as you release it here for free (here as in the online community, ticalc.org etc.)...
Did you end up looking at my scrolling code for help, if so, I want to be in the credits

you should use xLIB contrast changing function instead, this would save space and run faster than Asm programms ran with Asm(. Syntax is real(5,contrast_number , contrast_number is a number from 0 to 39

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #145 on:** August 10, 2005, 07:44:00 am »

what do you mean? actually it would run faster with xLIB contrast setting than with ZSHADE.8xp (at least I think)

@kevin: i like how fast it contrasts now. if i change it, it will either go to slow, or to fast. i know the laws of shareware, and that selling it for over a dollar is illegal. since installation is more of a FEE, it really isnt shareware. if you dont want shareware on your site, i could understand. of course, you guys will all get it for free B)

@merthsoft: no, i didnt use your engine. i spent hours going through each direction just to find out that i would have come up with pretty much the idea you had

@kevin again: i have the B451C layout of the first two dungeons, none of it set in stone. i feel i did pretty good on them

edit:
zbasic works fine, this game is god on an se...

Nice, but ZSHADE takes RAM, not much but with xLIB you could have a smaller syntax and it would take less space, but thats up to you

well I dont know about shareware laws, I am just more into open source software, 90% of what I have on my PC is open source, the only thing that is shareware or sold for money is Windows and what came with windows

the only reason why I still use M$ software now is becuase I am too much used to them, I have used them for ages

@Kevin - the game would run slow... wouldn't it?

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #149 on:** August 10, 2005, 09:17:00 am »

with zshade it would run fast enough, but by using xLIB instead you save some precious RAM space, since xLIB only take archive memory
