hi
im still stuck on creating a game or a character walk
plz help

[johnie]

Game examples are on many sites. Hilary has one or two here http://www.bridel.org/ Necromanthus has several http://necromanthus.com/main.html and I have a few samples also scattered all over- I've attactched one to this thread although I have several other games around also.

Check the basic starter tutorial with the bouncing ball at KoolMoves and it will tell you the very basics of animation. Also read watch the Bones tutorial. Animating in KoolMoves is pretty easy though. You simply copy the set the tweens, copy a frame, and move points, Bones, or shapes in the next copied frames and KoolMoves fills in the rest.

Hi Liberty1,

I am not sure exactly where you are at when you say you are trying to make a game, or a character walk.

Are you trying to get a handle on the basics, like making a shape appear to move across a screen ..
.. or are you looking for more advanced stuff like action scripting, maths/physics/trig and etc. ..
.. or something in between?

Perhaps if you describe your project in a little more detail, and where you are stuck?

Success to you.

Johnie how do i start creating this game?

[gusmus]

Liberty,, as a newbie here as well,,, just like the characters you are working with,,,, you have to learn to walk before you can run,,, study the help pages and practice,, I promise you'll fall down a lot but keep with it,, it's a nice game,, all the best,,, cheers

The Example Fun is already made. It points to methods used for making a simple shooter. Just about every element of a basic shooter is included .

If you serious about designing a game you first step is not going to be to jump in a start creating lines of AS but rather deciding...

1. What Type of game (Shooter, Platform, Pong, Fighter, RPG, ECT) or concept do you have for your game?

2. What are the games rules?

After you have decided that you then start on the more specifics.

If you just want to use new graphics and add sounmds to my FUN file that is fine also (Won't be that exciting of a game).
