Re: King's Quest 8 Remake

I'd certainly like a game like that, especially if we could get to play in Daventry in 3D in the daytime. I didn't like the fact that in KQ8 you only got to play in Daventry in darkness. But do you know how much work you're talking about? It would be on the scale of TSL, which took over ten years to...

Re: Wierd Food Laws

You may want to invest in sporks. I didn't know that that was what they were called. I thought spork was the name of the meat served in the game Leisure Suite Larry 6: Love for Sail. At work I always keep a folding camp spoon with a spoon on one end and a fork on the other, in case I forget my uten...

It's working now. However, I can't figure out where my saved games are going. It says E:\BLACK, but I don't have an E drive on my machine.

Re: My Quest for Heroes 3.0 demoversion is up now.

It looks as though it's going to be a very good game. Spielberg was always my favorite place in the QFG universe, so I'd certainly like to revisit it, or a place nearby. With Quest for Infamy now on indefinite hold, I'm especially looking forward to this game. I was playing your demo with my 3-year-...

Re: My Quest for Heroes 3.0 demoversion is up now.

I just took a look at it, and it looks really good. Is it going to be like Quest for Glory? Where does the story take place? Spielberg? Rekjavik?

Re: Kings Quest Memories

Some of those scenes are as good as, or better than, TSL, and that's a high standard to meet. Can you only do still scenes, or is it possible to do a mini-game or a video? Ever since KQ8 I've wanted to walk around Daventry in 3-D in the daytime in an enviroment that resembles the original Daventry, ...

Praise and a Comparison (some spoilers)

Okay, I finished the game. I did basically what I was going to do anyway, but I was expecting the cursor to sparkle, and it didn't sparkle where I clicked it.  Also, I think that I should have clicked it in a slightly different place to make it work.  I think that, in previous cases, the inventory c...

This game is pretty good for a start, but is it complete?  My score so far is 8 out of 8, but I'm nowhere near to finishing the game. In the KQ7 interface, the cursor sparkles whenever whenever it is placed over an object that is receptive to action.  I've been to every accessible room and placed th...

Well, basically, in filming a combat scene, you can use either human actors or robots.  Erpy says robots are better because 1.  Robots are easier to position than actors.  Actors always want to be positioned so that their best side is facing the camera.  Robots aren't so particular. 2.  Robots can d...

[An Object is] anchored by its bottom-left corner by default instead of by the center. This made it a lot easier to display graphics without them jumping around because of varying width. (when the combat system was first made, I'm not even sure if SetCharacterViewEx already existed) Oh, you just ga...

Just out of curiosity, what is is about the Object class that makes it more suitable for animating combat than the Character class?  Looking over the two classes, the Character class appears to be the more robust of the two, with over twice the number of methods and properties.  The Object class app...

It doesn't matter how you do it, so long as it works.  AGS gives some methods and properties to characters and others to objects.  Since you can't create classes freely as in C++, you simply pick whatever class works best in any given instance. Think of it like a stunt man in a movie.  The director ...
