About your platform game: It doesn't look that bad, but you use awfully small numbers like acceleration 3 instead of 20 or something. And the animation must go extremely fast if you just flip 2 images, or is it a road runner game?  you can set the FPS with set_fps. you must know, if you have 60 frames per second: this means if you swap the image once per frame, as in your example, it swaps 60 times per second, this is useful to animate electricity, but not a character. ____________ Kwakkel |

To easily copy the following code to your .prg file, I pasted it at Pastebin, here. Fenix code: Program platform_engine; Global Playerfpg; Ground_height=200; Begin Set_mode(320,240,8); Set_fps(40,0); PlayerFPG=load_fpg("Player.fpg"); Map_clear(0,0,RGB(0,0,0)); Write (0, 64, 16, 1, "Platform Game"); Player(PlayerFPG,1,50,200); Loop If (key(_esc)) Exit("Bye",0); End Frame; End End Process Player(file,graph,x,y) Private xspeed=8; yspeed=0; y_start_acceleration=5; y_acceleration=0; jump=0; Begin Loop // Walking If (key(_left) or key(_right)) If (graph==1) graph=3; Else graph=1; End If (key(_left)-key(_right)>0) flags=1; x-=xspeed; Else flags=0; x+=xspeed; End Else // Standing still graph=1; End // Jumping If (jump==0) If(key(_space)) jump=1; y_acceleration=y_start_acceleration; End Else y_acceleration-=1; If (y=>ground_height) jump=0; y=ground_height; y_acceleration=0; yspeed=0; End End yspeed+=y_acceleration; y-=yspeed; Frame; End End Judging from the code you had first, it seems you don't understand basic things like how the parameters of processes work, so look them up at the Fenix wiki here. If you would study the space game example it would become more clear. You asked to help with your second FPG, but there's an image of a tile inside. I am not going to program a tile based game for you, you won't understand a bit of it. Once again first fully understand the space game I wrote out for you, and expand upon it yourself. If you're not willing to learn the basics that way it's going to be a lot harder if not impossible for you, and we're not going to write a platformer for you! ____________ Personal website: http://www.loijson.com |

actually i would pay someone to make an engine itself for me :), i was just wandering i can can spawn multiples of that tile on the ground and make points all around it.

thank you for the code! i needed this to get started yes i will read the wiki. i set the fps to about 25 cause 40 was a little too fast. whenever you post code with the [code] thing, i cant seem to copy it right (even in paste bin), i had to quote you and cope the code from there and it copied right. thanks ____________ |

I was joking around. I don't want any payment for such thing. Maybe it's useful experienced people make tutorials and share them somewhere on the net.

to be more technical, picture megaman. imagine his walk movements 3,4,5. it goes (on repeat) 3 -> 4 -> 5 -> 4 -> 3 -> 4 -> you get what i mean. I tried setting a speed of the animation but the game got too many errors (i think i did something wrong from the wiki). im sure if you find a nes gameplay of megaman, you can picture the speed you see the sprites in your head. how would i incorporate that? the wiki didnt really seem to tell me. as for jumping, i was able to get it that if its graph 1, it will jump. but not while walking, when you start walking, it goes to the walking animation. now, i have actually placed global variables throughout the code that when walking, it makes walking true, and everything else false; jumping, same thing; standing, you know what i mean. would these server any purpose where i can make a section of code saying like: if Walking=true; graph=3,4,5,4; if Standing=true; graph=1; if Jumping=true; graph=2; along those lines? thanks [Edited on February 26, 2011 by DoctorN] ____________ |

and i would like to have it that you dont hold down the jump button to keep jumping. you have to press it every time. i found on the wiki: http://www.fenixdocs.com/index.php/Timer that i could use this. how could i incorporate this into it? i tried putting it into the code but it didnt work. i want it there just so you cant hold down the space bar, but you can press it again no sooner the second you touch the ground. ____________ |

Quote: Process Level(file,graph,x,y) Private int map; Begin map = new_map(100,100,8); map_clear(0,map,rgb(255,0,0)); put(0,map,160,100); Loop frame; End End I also put this in the game (got it from the wiki, word for word), but nothign showed up (didnt get any errors) so if you could shed some light on this it would be greatful. also, what could i do to turn this map into an image? would i have to add points for every pixel in the fpg? ____________ |

I haven't been doing bennu/fenix/div for years but I used to make an array. g_animation[] = 3,4,5,4; and then you COULD use timer or skip frames. I used to skip frames with an interval variable, creating somethign like this: (It could have syntax errors) Fenix code: process player private p_animation[] = 3,4,5,4; p_interval = 0; p_graph_i = 0; end begin loop graph = p_animation[p_graph_i++]; if (p_interval > 3) p_graph_i ++; if (p_graph_i > 3) p_graph_i = 0; end p_interval = 0; end frame; end end However, there is probably a better way to do this, since my way is 10 years old from the days I didn't know much about programming.

it will run through that animation once and when thats done, it will make it the standing sprite once more and you dont seem to be moving but when you let go, you "warp"

how can i make the jump graph last from when you start the jump to when you land? i put it it in this bit of code: // Jumping If (jump==0) If(key(_space)) graph=2; jump=1; ____________ |

Here is a basic gravity system I used: Fenix code: private g_speed = 8; end loop y+=g_speed; g_speed++; if g_speed > 8 g_speed = 8; end if (key(_space) and jump == 0) g_speed=-8; // player will jump. jump = 1; end while (touch_floor_or_object) jump=0; //jump ended y--; //move the player out of the floor // do not use a frame statement because we don't want to see it happen end frame; // send the (changed) coordinates to the screen end It's not perfect but I hope you can do something with it. It may have bugs, I don't have the application to test it and my head may not be enough. XD ____________ Kwakkel |

hmmm.... i dont think you really knew what i wanted (thanks anyways though). What I want is: how can i make the jump graph permant as long as your jumping? when you land, your back to normal. & how can i make the animtion go through 3,4,5,4 and repeat? i tried what you helped me with, i tried the wiki, but nothings helping. heres my code (bits and peices from your help are in it): Quote: Program platform_engine; Global Playerfpg; Ground_height=200; Standing=true; Walking=false; Jumping=false; Level; Begin Set_mode(320,240,8); Set_fps(25,0); PlayerFPG=load_fpg("Player.fpg"); Map_clear(0,0,RGB(0,0,0)); Write (0, 64, 16, 1, "Platform Game"); Player(PlayerFPG,1,50,200); Loop If (key(_esc)) Exit("Bye",0); End Frame; End End Process Player(file,graph,x,y) Private xspeed=3; yspeed=0; y_start_acceleration=4; y_acceleration=0; jump=0; p_animation[] = 3,4,5,4; p_interval = 0; p_graph_i = 0; g_speed = 8; Begin Loop // Walking If (key(_left) or key(_right)) graph = p_animation[p_graph_i++]; if (p_interval > 3) p_graph_i ++; if (p_graph_i > 3) p_graph_i = 0; end p_interval = 0; Standing=false; Jumping=false; Walking=true; End If (key(_left)-key(_right)>0) flags=1; x-=xspeed; Else flags=0; x+=xspeed; End Else // Standing still graph=1; Standing=true; Walking=false; Jumping=false; End // Jumping If (jump==0) If(key(_space)) graph=2; jump=1; Standing=false; Walking=false; Jumping=true; y_acceleration=y_start_acceleration; End Else y_acceleration-=1; If (y=>ground_height) jump=0; y=ground_height; y_acceleration=0; yspeed=0; End End yspeed+=y_acceleration; y-=yspeed; Frame; End End Process Level(file,graph,x,y) Private int map; Begin map = new_map(100,100,8); map_clear(0,map,rgb(255,0,0)); put(0,map,160,100); Loop frame; End End howcome you dont have the program? ____________ |

I think someone needs to take over your PC for that.  I'm sorry that I'm not of much help. I don't program Fenix anymore so all I can provide are things in my brain from 5 years ago. I don't see any system how you make your character check when you touch the ground. Basically you just have to check in the main loop wether the character is in the air (not only when jumping, but also falling) and change the graph accordingly. There are many many ways to do this though. [Edited on March 9, 2011 by Dennis] ____________ Kwakkel |
