VectorSatyr Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 If you can't see the image in my signature, the link is http://aerogp.funpic.org. I know it's not much at the moment, but I will be expanding the content tomorrow with some specific details about the project and a couple of tutorials. I've removed the link for Sonic Dash in my signature because I plan on mirroring it at the blog sometime over the weekend, so be on the lookout. In the meantime, I've got to go to prepare for school in 3 hours. =) EDIT: Please mention your name when you comment on the site, if you do not intend on registering. Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asuma Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Weird. The game crashes the moment I click on it. This is Game Maker, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorSatyr Posted December 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 You're talking about the demo of Sonic Firestorm, right? Yes, it's Game Maker. Could you tell me what your system specs are so I can identify the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asuma Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 AMD Althlon 64 3500+ 2.21GHZ 1024 DDR RAM GeForce 7300GT 512mb VRAM Windows XP SP2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorSatyr Posted December 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 Hmm... have you had trouble playing other game maker games? Is there a specific crash message that displays when you click on the executable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asuma Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 The default crash messages. "Windows had encounter an error" thing. I haven't played any other GM games as of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorSatyr Posted December 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Blog updated. Come download DamiRyoshiEngine_simple.gm6 and follow along with the tutorials! =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asuma Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 I tried opening it and it crashed. No GM errors. Just the standard windows error. I used GM7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaSpeeds Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 The intro and graphics look very professional. It seems to well on my computer. The only problem is that everything seemed to move in slow motion (but it wasn't skipping frames). I'm not sure if that's how you made the game, or if it's just my computer. But even if it was my computer, it still didn't effect the game play too much. Nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorSatyr Posted December 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 I didn't make the demo; GG did. And it's not your computer - the demo has slowdown issues that will be resolved in future releases. @Azu: I honestly don't know what's happening there. At first, I figured it might have something to do with the demo, but this new problem means that it may be a problem with your particular computer. Have you tried running any other GM games? If you have, and they work, I'll have to investigate this with a different computer somehow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asuma Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 They work. I tried an old demo of Sonic Revival and it ran fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Yeah, this runs really slowly on my computer. The boss stage ran at what I assume to be the normal speed SOME of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asuma Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 I must be the only one who can't play this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaSpeeds Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 I must be the only one who can't play this. Well based on the number of post, I'm not sure if that many people have played it yet. AeroGP: What version of Game Maker did you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenor Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 It ran normally here, but with a low frame rate. And a little thing. When the music ends, before it starts again, the game runs fine. Maybe you could do an option to disable the music? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorSatyr Posted December 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 AeroGP: What version of Game Maker did you use? 6.1. When the music ends, before it starts again, the game runs fine. Maybe you could do an option to disable the music? I'll consider it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asuma Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 I think that's why it's not working. 6.1 games doesn't work on my comp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Rush Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 I have a question: It appears that all the tutorials you'll post will only work with the latest Sonic Dash engine (in other words, the Dami/RougeYoshi X-Mas engine). Some people (such as me) prefer the older engine (the examples pack on GMC to be exact), so will you be posting any tutorials for the older engine, or are the new tutorials able to work with the old engine simply by changing the name of the variables? Originally Posted by Azu I think that's why it's not working. 6.1 games doesn't work on my comp. You said you ran Sonic Revival just fine? Sonic Revival was made with Game Maker 6.1.

Not necessarily. They're actually intended for the "template" Sonic Dash available to download on the site...

Some simple variable name changes should work for previous 360 Movement examples, as long as they're not made in GM5 or lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the download you posted sure does seem helpful, I've been wanting a dumbed-down X-mas engine for quite a while. *sigh* I guess once I'm ready I should make a new Genesis engine with the new movement engine...

VectorSatyr Posted December 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 No updates this week. Shit keeps happening, and I can't sit down for a moment to write the material out. I'll explain everything next Saturday. Apologies in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Rush Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 Hey AeroGP, would it be okay if every time you updated, can I post an example of your update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorSatyr Posted December 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 I'd prefer you didn't, to discourage users from developing copy/paste coding habits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorSatyr Posted December 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 Wow, I sure make a lot of double posts in this thread. New update today. I want to be really sincere about what's happened, and this should explain everything. Chaos Rush, you read the last part especially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
