11 people filled out the survey so far! This is better than I thought. I only need 39 more. Link:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1SyF-H9vk5uparRxf-dQcripSbrT2auMi-wyvOOQ0V6g/viewform?usp=send_form

I'll add one that says "foreign" or something like that. I'm sure my professor won't mind if I change the project just a little bit. Thanks for your submissions!

Hi all! I'm conducting a survey to collect data on the frequency, duration and preference of social media users. This was given as a project in my data mining course here at Tuskegee University (TU!). I'm required to accumulate at least 50 responses, so any help is much appreciated! Just as a treat, I'll post the results when I finish the project. Link to survey: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1SyF-H9vk5uparRxf-dQcripSbrT2auMi-wyvOOQ0V6g/viewform?usp=send_form Thanks for helping a brutha pass this class!

Hi all! Just posting to let you all know that this project is not dead, I'm just bogged down with college and personal stuff. I'm currently rewriting my custom editor in a way that allows more extensibility as the engine becomes more developed and streamlines the development process as a whole. I've decided to do away with the current pixel-based collision system and implement Box2D as my primary collision library. Currently, the level editor is my focus, as implementation of this style collision is not an easy feat considering ear-clipping, holes, concavity and what not, but I'm making progress. I'm also tossing around other ideas regarding mobile development using this engine, or atleast a more lightweight variant of it (not running a sonic 2 clone though...). So, slow progress is better than no progress, but things should pick up again once my editor gets closer to a more complete and stable build.

I'm making more progress on my level editor. Now I have figure out a sexy way to implement Box2D support...
-
Sonic games focus on physics, so I'm surprised someone hasn't made a Box2D based engine already. You have my interest....
-
The plan was to use only the collision support from Box2D in Sonic's physics code, because replicating the original Sonic's physics using modern kinematics seems rather difficult to achieve, if not impossible. Is it possible to stick to the surface of a circle while accelerating without manipulating gravity? I think not, but I'll look further into it. For now I'm just going to replace the pixel-based collision masks with mass-less, geometrical versions. So, in theory, my curre...

My tools rewrite saga is nearly over! The only things left to complete is the map editor and the bitmap font editor, then I'll be back on track...
-
With change, brings even more change. Replacing pixel collision with Box2D, which means I have to rewrite my whole editor program. All this for DirectX 11...
-
Switching to DirectX 11 provided a major performance boost, it's amazing! It's making my brain ache though...
-
Umm, I'm not dead. Writing a DirectX 11 renderer. Hopefully this will speed things up a bit...

Shame on them for buying overpriced hardware.

It already supports OpenGL too soo.......

Diagonal Springs in Sonic Dash(GM8)
justin123 replied to FastFlash's topic in Game Project Assistance
Is direction no longer a default variable for objects (like x, y, etc.) in GML? I haven't programmed in it for a few years now. Anyways, the fix for this error is simply declaring the variable (its quite obvious btw). I really expected you to copy the idea, not the actual code lol. -
Diagonal Springs in Sonic Dash(GM8)
justin123 replied to FastFlash's topic in Game Project Assistance
Try this: Speed = cos( degtorad(spring.direction))*_ObjectHandle.SpringStrength Gravity = sin( degtorad(spring.direction))*_ObjectHandle.SpringStrength You'll have to set the direction in each individual spring object depending on your implementation, but this code should move the player in the desired direction. This can be used for all springs, so I would recommend putting this into a script so your code look cleaner.
