so i did come up with a name for the game, i told my friend sam that i would put him in a game, so i told him i was making a new one and he got excited so i named it "Sam's Story" and he is the main character.

can someone show me Completely how to do sound with more than just a source code file? (like show me where to put things and how they work and stuff) i looked at the sound source code from RT but it was confusing.

June 13, 2011

and also random terrain, i didn't know about the beginners page, thanks for sending that! i can now cross animation off the list.

June 13, 2011

i knew about it and i was gonna use it, but people were gonna be like "what? whats this playfield editor thing? what do i do here?" because i'm the only person at my school who knows what Batari is really. barely anyone knows what a coding language is.

June 13, 2011

no offense RT, but just looking at your codes and sample files like that gets me nowhere, like if you took the parts out that i need specifically then posted them and told me how to use them and what they did then i'd understand better.

June 13, 2011

well this is just the first little piece of it, i am going to add a missile but make it act as a sword and things like that, but i went ahead and made the enemy so that i can work with lives and such.

June 13, 2011

I am making an adventure type game right now, no name for it yet, do i have just titled it "RPG 2011 FH" (FH are my initials)

so far i have the following:

titlescreen (no kernel)

playfields

sprites

movement

an enemy

collision detection with enemy

lives

i need help the following:

sound

making a sword or a weapon to hit with

more screens than just one

how to get rid of the spaces between lines on a playfield

animation.

i will upload my code along with a .bin file of it.

also i'm holding a contest for a name for it, so post names/help for it here.

i get this:

 Can't install /tmp/mono-basic-2.6.2-1.fc14.i686-1.rpm as no transaction

June 12, 2011

nevermind, the link was messed up so i had to put the ending ')' so it worked

now i am installing mono-vbnc

June 12, 2011

oh and the page you sent to me for mono-vbnc had no rpm for fedora

June 11, 2011

yeah, but i was only trying to draw a big player0 so it takes too much ram

June 11, 2011

ok thx!

June 6, 2011

Yes, I'm talking to developers so if they see that, they know what it means.

Purple screen of death (PSOD) is a very precise problem. not enough RAM to play your ROM file, so the atari flips out. it shows a black screen then purple starts coming in from the sides and sound ascends in pitch until the purple meets and then makes an ugly sound that will give little kids nightmares.

it usually happens because of the following:

too many banks

too big of playfield/playerx

too many players

or just too much happening in your game.

if your ROM file exceeds more than 4k (4 kilobytes) then you need to check your code.

my uploader on atariage isn't working right so i'll give you my code that will do this.

the way i got psod in this is from too big of a sprite. (way too big)
