Good to hear from you, I figured your new son was taking up all your time 

Yey its back in business i wondered whered youd gone im glad your back cant wait for the demo

Kool, nice to see the flash version get on its feet again!  ps: I couldnt see anything when I followed your link kwigbo.

thanks for the link and clever thingymabob ;)

I just added some simple movement. I'm working on the jump next. Also you might notice the red when he moves left. I am aware of that issue and i'm trying to figure it out. Any comments would be helpful.

I tweaked the numbers a bit I had the acceleration set to low. Does that look any better?

Edited by kwigbo - 16 July 2006 at 8:47am

What's the framerate? It seems a bit choppy.

i hate the acceleration, it may be realistic but it just will annoy me during the game.  I also hate that when ur sliding it takes ages to turn the other way.

Great to have you back and working on this :D

Try running... sliding... then running in the other direction.

The sprite animation seems too fast. Is it on one 1 sprite-frame per overall frame? Also when your running, if you let go of all buttons he comes to a complete sudden stop. I think he should have a tiny bit of momentum left and de-accelerate.

I just updated the movement. The jump is now working. (Space Bar) Please point out an glitches in the movement.

God that midair jumping is rather addictive. Lol. There should sooo be some low gravity level where he can do that...

I didnt even notice the jump. But I'm gonna figure out how to turn it on and off so I can use it. I changed the physics variables a bit to make it more like swimming in mario. I'll upload those changes tonight. I'm glad everyone likes it. I'm just anxious to get back to the point I was at before. Next step is to start creating a world! I'm gonna use the brians ice world tiles for the demo.

That's a nice little game you have there. What actionscript version did you use to make it? The pj game is being developed in actionscript 3.0. So if you can write as 3.0 classes let me know.

This is perfect!!

great work so far - the jumping is a little bit off though.

If you jump and you're not holding space.
And then you push down.
He slows down in mid-air.

oh forget about that, I googled it but what IDE are you using for developement (them macrodobe product series becomes ridicilously complex).

And how do you like flex? I'm thinking of diving deeper into it but not sure yet...

Well I have nothing new to show but I have been working. I just got done building a map editor so I don't have to write out the xml for the test world. So you can look forward to seeing pj in brians ice world soon.

I'm currently trying to get some proper 32x32 tiles for IceWorld happening. Would be nice to see how it all fits in. Currently, he seems to be walking on almost nothing. Gotta get the multiple jump thing fixed too btw

I just added horizontal scrolling. The world is also built and destroyed as it scrolls. So the game only keeps track of whats in the visible area. Which will allow for much more goin on in the game because it's only dealing with whats on screen.

Whenever I update the demo I will update the date on this thread.

I need some help though. Does anyone see the red around PJ when he walks past certain tiles? If you see it or not please post and tell me what operating system you are using and what browser. Thanks.

I see the red, and I've got Windows XP with IE6.

I use a Mac, so I guess I can check. I don't seem to be able to play the game, though. I'm downloading Flash 9 right now and see if that's what's missing.

EDIT: I can play the game now, but some funny things are happening...I see the ice tiles - that's supposed to happen, right? Curiously, the tiles seem to be part of the background, because they don't affect me in anyway - I walk in an invisible platform on the middle of the screen (a litle below maybe) and can't get on top of any of the tiles. Everything else is fine although the background is white (but that's temporary, I hope). Oh, and the little guy probably doesn't like borders because if i keep walking to one side he eventually gets out of the screen - but he comes back if I click in the opposite directional button.

Good news. I didn't see that red thing you were speaking of

If all this is supposed to happen...I apologize. (I haven't read t he whole thread so I don't really know it's what's supposed to be like)

EDIT2: Plus, he's got the magical gift of eternal jumping. Better fix that, no? I forgot to mention that I'm using Firefox on Mac OS X 10.3.9

Hi,

I submitted a bug for this and it is already fixed. So it will be fixed
in the next release.

I had sent you an fla reguarding a glitch with bitmapdata objects that
are transformed. The same thing happens when they are masked as well.
I found both these problems to show on the windows player and not the
mac.

issue : red tint on transparent pixels set with threshold when they
are transformed or masked.

attached : fla and loaded image that I used.

Please let me know if this is going to be fixed I seem to run across
it alot when working with bitmapdata.

Below is a link that shows the same issue on a larger scale.
