Really? I'll go tinker with that now lol... +rep

2 words. Love it.

Feel your pain bud, I've had 2 xboxes ROD'd already. The game store round my place lets me exchange Xboxes though, Elite's don't seem to red ring as much from what I can see, mine's still going. Ask for a refund or exchange, they're more likely to let you if you make a fuss. edit: same goes for RES

Yeah tried the resolution change with fullscreen, no luck. Thanks for the link, gsoft. I'll check it out.

Pretty n00b question, but basically when "resize display to fit screen" is checked and the window is maximized, it's in full screen mode but it also becomes pixelated. Checking the resize option off gives the soft-edged look I want, but then the screen doesn't fit the whole way... Any way to get it in complete full screen without the pixelated look?

I suppose there's little chance of it coming to the Ovi store ?

I'd say you're bang on the money, as I love FPS games nowadays. My PC's got high-ish specs but I doubt it'd be able to play the top brand stuff @gsoft: oh yeah true, there were loads of bans then. Bare in mind though, Modern Warfare 2's launch sales have beaten that of GTA IV; which was the biggest launch to date.

Yeah mate, gone to around 2 million people banned now. It's on the rise at the moment with Modern Warfare 2 having been released. @MFZB + Serephim: Hey hey me three, flashed PSP for the win. Nah I don't think Sony can do anything about your PSP personally, they can only counter with their firmware updates, which can be exploited by some loophole within them anyway by devs. Probably another reason why they've gone to digital content only on the PSP GO imo. Microsoft can ban you straight away though because most people on Xbox's connect online, with alllll the little details sent straight to them.. I have flashed my Xbox. Haven't been banned as of yet. And lol, yeah better to get RROD then perma-banned. I agree.

M-hm. I'll take that as a resounding no...

The face fuzz.

Soooo from November to December (or roughly around that time) Microsoft goes skitzo and bans every person and their baby who's got an xbox that's got flashed firmware. It's been on the news and everything and around 2 million so far have been banned, OOOOOO. Any unlucky candidates? Source: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8356621.stm

Lol Rael. Grizzly face = 100% man. Fear the beard baby, fear the beard.

Thanks I also love my old sprite! The problem with it though is I made the sprite using a small screen, as in 320x240. So it looks nice there. Now that using the fullscreen option works flawlessly, (TGF couldn't) you can see the not-so-much attention to detail in certain proportions and things in it, and I really hate it :/ But you're not the first to say you prefer my first one... maybe I should use it and just fix it up a bit...

Azu! I was counting on you to pick the 2nd one lol... noooooooo Ahh. I'm constantly unimpressed with what I'm working with. Sole reason I haven't finished a game to date.

Regardless I think you're doing a decent job. Props man. That screenshot with the wall run seems a bit off tho, as in the sprite's angle. is that how it's staying or..? Apart from that lol, I take my hat off to you. You can do a lot more than I can do anyway

Just played the test. your game is just oozing with high class quality, nice work. oh, and when sonic turns to super sonic = epic.

lol yea Sega need's to pull themselves together. Seriously. If they mess up the 2D sonic game that's coming out as well I'm switching sides to the fat plumber. FanGameRevolver that's not a bad effort at all my friend. Are you doing this engine as a single person?

thanks again for the tip gsoft Ok quick question? Which one's better?

I will definetely keep that in mind thanks for the heads up! (How do I multi-quote, can I do that?) @LarkSS - thanks for pointing out the jump animation, I keep forgetting that I should fix that. What I want to do is actually have the fall animation seperate, atm both the spin and the roll out/fall are in the same animation. It looks even worse because I've set the anim speed to 100 for the jumping part to look fluid... I'll also have a look and see if I can make his head bobble naturally with the movement, and tweak hotspots a bit. Lol it is a bit messy atm

Thanks for the positive feedback = motivation

Very true guys very true. I forgot how long it's taken for the 2D games to get to the level they're at now. Guess there's some time yet till we find a way of not only making 3D games quite well, but also an ideal way that doesn't take more than twice the time it takes to make a 2D one. Definetely. I get bored far too often making 2D games after the base engine, even if I can spruce it up a bit. 3D games have a while yet. That being said I also think that not all 3D games will be bad, just need the right people. And there's definetely progress being made. Maybe slow, but steady. Once the tech is a bit more user-friendly I'll probably jump on that band wagon and give it a try myself.

Yeaaah hahaha I remember downloading the likes of Sonic Robo Blast 1 and some funny game (which amazed me at the time) where Sonic went to save Knuckles, startin off by swimming the ocean on a floating ducky. Ohh I guess you're right. I just tried attempting a 3D game... it is hard atm :/ really isn't much source for a sonic engine is there. Meh, at least I learnt how to animate (pretty well I might add Guess we just need time!

I'd love to promise you something amazing but seeing as I've still got plenty to still find out about the engine it'll be a while until I can really make it my own. Lol still, I'll post something playable soon. There's definetely some feedback I'll need on a few things...

n00biest youtube vid upload ever. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2jydeNEuvs&feature=player_embedded first one to be fair.

definetely. i'd say you got it right in one, sega's 3d games have been so dire lately that most people don't see any chance in 3D games for Sonic anymore. and you're right about the 3D fan games too, I've played SRB2 and it sure as hell isn't bad. Dami's/Mark's BlitzSonic engine as well, another example. guess it's up to us hey lol
