Der Luchs Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Hi folks, only wanted to write down a little bit about my experiences I've started coding the Jag a few weeks ago, it was a bit hard to get into it by using source codes from orion and reboot. Lets say, it was quiet hard to figure out, how everything works. After some days, masematte told me, that the Raptor Engine was released (I had no clue what he was talking about ^^), but I've downloaded it After looking into the Raptor file, I've found the great step by step examples and after that, everything runs by itself. You only need to understand what's going on in this examples that will show you at the end a Space Invader clone AND YOU'VE GOT IT! Look at me, I've started coding with the Raptor Engine on 4.12. and on the 20.12. I've got my own game done Once again:THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO CyranoJ and everyone who worked on the Raptor Engine. More Games will come by using the Raptor Engine! Stay tuned ^^ 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Stars Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Haha, here I thought you would use the Raptor Engine to begin with.^^ Didn't occur to me that I need to tell you. But it all ended well, first game done! Congrats! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der Luchs Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 Thanks I've never heard of the raptor engine before masematte told me ^^ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Stars Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 It was released just around the time of e-Jagfest, so it pays off to actually visit here and look into what is available or coming soon.^^ That's the nice thing about AA, homebrewers for many systems bring you the newest stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der Luchs Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 At the E-Jagfest I didnt know that I'll code a Jag Game as you might know 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Stars Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 You did! You bought a squirrelboard and were planning to look into it at least! All I'm saying: It's worth checking AA out regularely, I really would have thought you were starting with Raptor, seeing that it was released just when you were about to start. But even without it, at least you did not quit out of frustration.^^ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CyranoJ Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 at least you did not quit out of frustration.^^ Things are a lot better these days, there is far more available than a badly photocopied 'technical' reference with 'confidential' watermarked through it 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der Luchs Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) You did! You bought a squirrelboard and were planning to look into it at least! I've bought flashcards for some others consoles as well and I'm still planning to look into them too. That doesn't mean, I know all devkits for all systems, knowing who will release which tools or coding a game Edited December 21, 2014 by Der Luchs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Stars Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Which brings me back to my point: It pays to look into this forum before you start coding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der Luchs Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 ^^ nope, there are too much of them And if I would check them the whole time, there wouldnt be time for coding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Which brings me back to my point: It pays to look into this forum before you start coding. Yep. The RAPTOR BASICs being transferred here is what brought me back. Should be an interesting year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
