The things you listed are extremely remedial. i tried not to sound like a noob but hey, when i try to use the tutorial it always says that the file is curroupt or that there is an error in the coding and im not that great at coding so i couldn't really fix the problem, the problems are in each game maker tutorial on the GM section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Probably not. Bosses are usually original. Are you wanting us to make the game for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonicProject Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Are you wanting us to make the game for you? No, he wants some examples on how to go about doing a boss fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 He should specifically ask for what aspect of a boss fight he needs help with. As of now, he is just asking for everything in general, which comes off as "Make this boss fight for me and I will learn from it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonicProject Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 A lot of people do learn through example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 True. Since I am making my fangame in GM7, I would be happy to tell you how to make bosses if you want. First you need to tell me what you want to know, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First you need to tell me what you want to know, though. o ok, thanx i appreciate it, um like how would i go about making sonic have to hit the boss a certain number of times like in sonic 1 the bosses had to be hit 8 times because in my game, once sonic hits the boss once, he wins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Ah. For that, you just need variables. In the boss's creation event, put a piece of code such as "hp=8". Now, when Sonic hits the boss, instead of destroying it right away, put "hp-=1". In the step event for the boss, put "if(hp<1){instance_destroy()}". That way, the boss will only die if it's hp has gone below 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't even know what a variable is, then adding Knuckles effects to your engine is WAY out of your league. Just stick with Sonic for now.
