super crossover fighter

i just updated my game here:

http://www.marmotte.levillage.org/ga...r_fighter.html

the title "super crossover fighter" may be not definitive, though ^^
if you don't know the concept, it will be a game with a lot of different fighters, taken from street fighters series, megaman series... some kind of huge mix of fighters. for now, i essentially coded the gameplay, it seems to work well except for two or three little things. the combo system needs to be perfected, for example.

how to play
basic moves
arrows keys=moves
medium punch = 1
strong punch = 2
medium kick = 3
strong kick = 4
combo moves
there are a lot of forward+punch or forward+kick (even during crouch or jump position)
also:
forward, forward, medium or strong punch (super punch)
down, forward, punch (hadoken)
down, backward, kick (hurricane kick)

when you put your opponent KO, the game needs to be restarted.
oh, and sorry, the opponent is more than dumb. dumb and dumber ^^

i would like some feedbacks about the gameplay (exept maybe the combo system ^^). if you experience bugs, please report. when it'll be perfect, i'll add other characters ^^

thanks

one word three letters: SNK

u should name it using sum form of "five hit combo"...

hey marmotte il n'y a rien...i just see the shadows on the floor(no fighters) weird..

try refreshing, it worked for me.

i did it's not working...hey marmotte did you ever see the flash version of xmen vs street fighter..it's pretty cool
you can play/chat against another player online
i'll keep on trying the link..maybe they'll decide to appear(they might be taking a break from all the fighting :))
later

really, there's no fighter? i used the LoadMovie command, i wonder why they don't appear...?
if we consider that there'll be a lot of fighters, i decided to use that command, instead of waiting HOURS that the game is loaded... well, if the problem persists, i'll try another way...? but one character = approximatively 150/250ko, that's why i used the loadMovie...

no clue, or other solution to that REAL problem?

Nope, not working for me either. I have I.E. 6.

Hey, marmotte, don't disapoint me. I still can't ride your cows yet :D

hey it is a big bug in the game !
you have to reload the game few times befor it works !

problem with fighters not appearing

well, it's surely because of the LoadMovie command?
i don't want to put each character in the main movie, because of its future size... that's why i used the LoadMC command.
(knowing each character will be approximatively 150/250ko)...

can anyone help me or point me to a better method?

ok i put a little new version with two or three things better:

http://www.marmotte.levillage.org/ga...r_fighter.html

i changed something in the code for the LoadMC command. are the fighters still not here? ^^

ok marmotte i just tried it...la premiere fois there was only RYU on the left side but facing right...then i tried refreshing it again and then i didn't see anybody :( i got to try ruy for a bit Hadoken!! :)

Still nothing, marmoote

Still nothing there, marmoote.

ok, i managed to put ryu and the background in the same .swf file.

now the fighters will appear, nom d'une pipe!

http://www.marmotte.levillage.org/ga...r_fighter.html

please, test the gameplay and post what you think is weird or buggish^^

thanks.

btw i'll find a solution concerning the LoadMC porblem. if you already had problems with external .swf and the net, please tell...

It's working fine, now, marmotte

Nice game I love it !

I have a realy esy question I think!
how do you do that loading thing in the begining, that red line ?

Hope you get what I am asking for !
sorry for my english !

Hi,
I was wondering how, or what you used to animate your characters....did you use Poser 4 ?...
the graphics look great...and the movement looks smooth...

thanks..

poser 4?? haha i wish poser can do that

oh marmotte your game works/looks great good job..anything with SF i love keep us updated :)

well, it actually can animate like that...obviusly you'd have to be good... but the big problem would probably be exporting to flash....so anyway, what did he use??

marmotte your game works fine now i think
i coulndt make the guy punch though ... maybe it me :)

thanks all for your replies ^^. it keeps me motivated

micke85
that's how i did (sorry for the french name of the variables)

frame1:
TailleTotaleAnimation = this.getBytesTotal();
PourcentageAnimation = TailleTotaleAnimation/100;
_root.loading._yscale = 1;
BarreLoadingMove = _root.loading._yscale;

frame 2
ChargementActuel = this.getBytesLoaded();
CalculPourcentage = Math.round(ChargementActuel/PourcentageAnimation);
_root.loading._yscale = BarreLoadingMove+CalculPourcentage;

frame3
if (CalculPourcentage>=100) {
gotoAndStop(4);
} else {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}

frame4
well... the begining of your game

pentru
i just ripped some well-known characters from the game street fighter alpha. my game will be based upon existing characters...

magnetos
punches and kicks are keys 1, 2, 3 and 4...
isn'it working? or are you under beers today too?^^

ahemmm they working now :D
marmotte dont forget to check my link above you may want to use poser 4 pro pack for your own original stuff

that's what I thought!!!....but is there any way to export out of Poser 4 (I don't have pro pack...) as a sequence of vector images....or somethind that can be used in flash??
I thought of a sequence of images (bmp) rendered with a black backgroud...but then in flash I'd have to Bitmaptrace each one to get rid of the black background...do you know of any other way???
thatnks for any help...

it's always better to hand draw these things though..i tried everyhting out there(i think) to do the animation..but i ended redrawing them in flash,it's better for the file size too. u can do the image sequence like u said but it'll take timeeeeee to do..good luck with it

well, it'll probably take longer to drawing by hand rather then clean up bitmaps of their backgrnd....

yeah but your file size would be much much smaller...it all dependson what u doing..if ur doing a fighter like marmotte..he said each character is ~200K so do the math...but it all comes down to what u doin and the quality u want out of it

yeah, It'll be a fighter...however if I bitmatrace each frame to a 10% of its original pixel size.... that should gime a dicent file size...
I wonder if poser pro pack will export a sequence of vector images to flash and whether it takes out the background color...do you Know??

LoadMovie.

Marmotte, whats prolly happening with the loadmovies is that the base swf is fully loaded. But when you goto the fighting field you use the loadmovie to load the new characters. however these movies have not fully loaded yet when it gets to the stage. that would be why nothing shows up. possible sollution would be after you pick your character a versus screen, with a loading bar for each character picked.

poser pro pack will export to swf avi and png
png is best suited for flash since there wont be any background to cut off
too bad there is no hand drawing tool

Bah. You mean I have to change Hiei again!? :P

hey magnetos cool charactered, although his movment and look reminds me of a wasted jackie chan! HA!

keep it coming marmotte!

for the characters, i did a swf like that:
frame 1: nothing
frame 2: stop
frame 3: MC of the character

main swf:
during the screen with the two guys facing (versus screen), i put a stop, with a condition, if the currentframes of both fighters are 2, then nextFrame() for them and nextFrame() for the main swf... (enterFrame of course).

...? is it not correct?

i also tried to put a loading for each character, that failed. the loading (the same i used for the main swf) acted very strangely...

From the base swf. Lets say you called the player 1 mc player1. and the player 2 mc player2. You would do something to this effect.

if (player1.getBytesLoaded()==player1.getbytesTotal() and player2.getBytesLoaded()==player2.getbytesTotal()) {

then goto the apropriate frame.

I'm still waiting for riding of the cows, marmotte. :D

...really?

Have you gotten the loadmovie working yet marmotte?
