Game Design / Re: Gamemaker 8.1 for Windows, gone?

« on: May 18, 2015, 01:40:01 PM »

I've been having that bug as well. I guess studio is finally going to be the new standard for people who don't have 8.1 and don't want to pirate it.

This makes me wonder if the license isn't required anymore since you can't purchase it.

Game Design / Gamemaker 8.1 for Windows, gone?

It doesn't seem to be up for purchase and from what I've googled it seemed to have been removed around the 12th.

That's why you should make a habit of naming every sprite strting with "spr" and every sound starting with "snd" (or similar). That inherently avoids naming errors like this.

Basically this solves 50% of the problems posted here.

Why not just go through the Savage Mountain Challenge?

I've felt a lack of motivation to playing and beating fangames as of late. I needed something to spice things up so I figured I would maybe do the K2 Savage Mountain challenge as well instead of just mindlessly playing through one here or there.

Anyway... Isn't https://delicious-fruit.com/ exactly the answer to something like this?

Programming Questions / Re: Spinning Cherry?

« on: April 16, 2015, 06:32:50 AM »

i dont know why the code thing is squished. probably a bug with the new forums

Put this in the cherry step event

(click to show/hide)

Cherry Step Event:

Code: [Select]

if spin = true {
scrSpin(orbitObject,orbitAngle,orbitSpeed,orbitRadius,orbitDirection,orbitX,orbitY) // spin object [if direction = 1 { clockwise } else { counterclockwise }]

if orbitRadiusMax > orbitRadius { orbitRadiusDec = true } // if radiusMax is greater than the current radius, decrease it
if orbitRadiusDec = true { orbitRadius += orbitRadiusDev; if orbitRadius > orbitRadiusMax { orbitRadius = orbitRadiusMax; orbitRadiusDec = false } } // decrease radius

if orbitRadiusMax < orbitRadius { orbitRadiusInc = true } // if radiusMax is less than the current radius, increase it
if orbitRadiusInc = true { orbitRadius -= orbitRadiusDev; if orbitRadius < orbitRadiusMax { orbitRadius = orbitRadiusMax; orbitRadiusInc = false } } // increase radius
}

Scripts to make it run.

(click to show/hide)

(Only use this one, spin code is just ran in the cherry step)
Make it Spin Code:

Code: [Select]

//scrMakeCherrySpin(object,x,y,speed,direction,radiusMax,radiusDev)
var object,xx,yy,angle,fast,radius,dir,radiusMax,radiusDev;

object = argument0
xx = argument1
yy = argument2
fast = argument3
dir = argument4
radiusMax = argument5
radiusDev = argument6

if object != 1 { angle = point_direction(object.x,object.y,x,y) } else { angle = point_direction(xx,yy,x,y) }
if object != 1 { radius = distance_to_point(object.x,object.y) } else { radius = distance_to_point(xx,yy) } 
if object = 1  { object = 9999 }
spin = true
orbitObject = object
orbitX = xx
orbitY = yy
orbitAngle = angle
orbitSpeed = fast
orbitRadius = radius
orbitDirection = dir
orbitRadiusMax = radiusMax
orbitRadiusDev = radiusDevdiusDev

Spin Code:

Code: [Select]

//scrSpin(Orbited Object,Current Angle,Speed,Radius,Direction,rx,ry)

orbitObject = argument0
orbitAngle = argument1
orbitSpeed = argument2
orbitRadius = argument3
orbitReverse = argument4
orbitX = argument5
orbitY = argument6

if (orbitDirection) {
     if orbitObject != 9999 { 
          orbitAngle += orbitSpeed;
          x = orbitObject.x + orbitRadius * cos(orbitAngle * pi / 180);
          y = orbitObject.y - orbitRadius * sin(orbitAngle * pi / 180);
     } else {
          orbitAngle += orbitSpeed;
          x = orbitX + orbitRadius * cos(orbitAngle * pi / 180);
          y = orbitY - orbitRadius * sin(orbitAngle * pi / 180);
     }
} else {
     if orbitObject != 9999 { 
          orbitAngle -= orbitSpeed;
          x = orbitObject.x + orbitRadius * cos(orbitAngle * pi / 180);
          y = orbitObject.y - orbitRadius * sin(orbitAngle * pi / 180);
     } else {
          orbitAngle -= orbitSpeed;
          x = orbitX + orbitRadius * cos(orbitAngle * pi / 180);
          y = orbitY - orbitRadius * sin(orbitAngle * pi / 180);
     }
}

How to run it:

Run this script with variables associated like thie

Code: [Select]

with(delicious_fruit) { scrMakeCherrySpin(object,x,y,speed,direction,radiusMax,radiusDev) }object = object name ( if no object set it to 1 )
x = if no object, set this to x pos you want it to rotate around
y = if no object, set this to y pos you want it to rotate around
speed = how fast it rotates around object / x,y cord
direction = 1 for clockwise; 0 for counterclockwise (i forgot which one it is)
radiusMax = maximum radius it is allowed to expand to (for cases where you want the circle thing to expand out a certain amount)
radiusDev = the speed at which it expands

This is what I use to make shit spin. There are probably easier ways but this is how I do it.
