Godmaster Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Yeah, I'm here again... Not for ask about Game Maker issues, but I have to tell that I'm definetively bored from GM. First, I wanted to make BrazSonic 2 as a big and good fangame, that could run in whatever pc, but I failed two times... in other hand, at the second try I got a really god engine, but even with few elements, the run performance was ruined. I had tested with some people these days. I got only few good results and to the rest it ran slow or didn't work anyway (before the first level). So I almost became depressed and emo, and I though "Why I'm insisting in only one tool, that's not flexible for old pcs" (from people who got BrazSonic 1 to run). There's lot of people looking forward on my project, even this being a freeware. If I cancel that I could drop out a large amount of work... After that I was decided to go on a new beginning, even after almost 3 years alone defining what this fangame really could be. So, I got tired of headbanging alone with a 'not-so-good' language and I just started to look for someone to help me, specially with programming and design. Before starting again the project I need to know which these languages is good enough to make a professional-like game (I don't know how I create polls, sorry): -Multimedia Fusion 2 -Blitz Basic -Blitz 3d -C++ -Java -Pascal (yeah, kinda crappy, but can run at whatever machine) -Torque -ASM (for genesis rom hacking) -Someone that I can program/hack for GBA/ DS Oh, I got two sonic-like games that were made in Blitz Basic: Sonic Blitz Mental loop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USC Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 You will kill yourself writing a game from scratch in Assembly. C++ would probably be the most flexible and fastest language, with Java coming in second for running on almost any platform. If you really want to make a game for GBA, I can send you a link to something that'll help you there. I notice you have Blitz3D and Torque on there though; are you planning on making BrazSonic 3D, or will it still be 2D? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godmaster Posted February 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 I notice you have Blitz3D and Torque on there though; are you planning on making BrazSonic 3D, or will it still be 2D? It will still be in 2d, but with some 3d addictions like parallax and a 3d maze for extras room. I'd like to know a faster way to do that and I know that I have to study new an lighter ways to do that, while I can't find someone to work together. And, MMF2 consumes a big memory like Game Maker. Most of MMF games here I can run even in my crappy 650 Mhz pc, that proudly has 320 of RAM. I want make it run in whatever machine, like MMF.

Dragon Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 I thought MMF2 was coming out with some sort of hardware acceleration extension, it may help with the lag issues? Honestly, I don't even think people whould own these really bad computers. I'm all for making a game everyone can play, but seriously, people should ATLEAST have 1 mb RAm and a 1.8 ghz processor.

But with most of my testers, the minimum that I found (whitout my old machine) was 1Ghz with 256 RAM, that made my project run pretty slow nowadays.

Sockman Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Damnit. I knew the name "Sonic Blitz" had to have been used at least once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hRook Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 but seriously, people should ATLEAST have 1 mb RAm No doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
