Graphic Practice

A long time ago, I posted a question about how to create sierra style backgrounds. Since then, I have seen several links posted to tutorials. However, with my old job, I had very little time to play around with it. Now, with a new job, I have a little more time for spare, I wanted to give a try and ...

Problem with the new gamers is that everything has to be fast-paced. Move fast, aim and shoot. Gamers of this generation don't want to stop and think. Just show them Graham trying to clean the path were the snake is. Instead of trying to use any item in the pack, they will look for a gun/bomb/laser ...

Hey Hey!! That's what I call a control question.

What do I mean by that?

[edited]

That is a luck question. So, don't feel bad about it. I don't even know it myself...  ;)

QFG2VGA in other languages??

While responding another post, I remember that my first QFG game was QFG3 in Spanish. I know that QFG2 was not even finished. But will be a chance of getting it also in Spanish? I can speak and write english, but some of my old friends in Argentina don't. I still want to show them the game. If there...

Ok, here we go with opinions... QFG3: The first QFG that I ever played (because I got it in Spanish). To me, it was excellent!! Each character had a story, culture, etc. I do have to agree that the battle system was a little week. But I still remember creating my first staff!! (And I finally underst...

Re: Adjective position

The problem is, the translation to another language completely kills the true nature of the joke; the repetitive "dead ant" was supposed to be a send-up of the Pink Panther theme music.  Trying singing it and you'll understand (presuming you know the theme). :rollin  I got it now!!! lol!!

Well, the idea is not for you to train us.

But for us to train ourselves.

At least, in my case, I can say that I could learn and understand the entire script in one month without anybody explaining it.

Let me help. I am sure that I can give a hand.
