Game Design / Re: The Difference between Yosniper's and Yuuutu Engine
« on: January 29, 2014, 05:07:20 AM »
Yosniper's engine isn't that great to be honest. It has some stuff going for it, but for everything it does good it brings up a ton of problems. I've been stuck with it for months now and I would only recommend it to people who know how to modify the engine.

Programming Questions / Re: How do I rip a Tileset correctly?
« on: January 21, 2014, 06:33:43 AM »
This is how I usually go about doing this.
I use a image editor called GraphicsGale.
https://www.humanbalance.net/gale/us/
Then I take a screenshot in whatever game I want to rip the tileset from.
You can also get already made maps from a lot of games here wich speeds up the prossess.
https://vgmaps.com/
The cool thing about GraphicsGale is you can set up a grid and use the snap to grid tool wich works perfectly for tilesets. Usually they are in 16x16.
Then with the cutter and snap to grid tool, drag and drop everything that looks useful down in one compact tileset. Try to arrange the tiles in a square.
Select all the tiles with the cutter tool and select "All Frames" and "Crop".
And finally, since these are 16x16 tiles you want to double the size. Use "All Frames" and "Resample". Then increase the size by 200% and uncheck smooth.
There you go, a 32x32 tileset. Save and import it into GameMaker.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Programming Questions / Re: Alt key freezing the game ?
« on: January 11, 2014, 12:51:50 PM »
Go to Resources > Change Global Game Settings and
select either "Don't draw a border in windowed mode", "Don't show the buttons in the window caption." or both. That's the only way I know how to disable the alt key pausing the game effect.

« on: January 10, 2014, 12:35:16 AM »Let me guess where you fixed that rainbow spike: the green area? If it is, then I knew that goddamn spike was wrong in Rainbow, but everyone just accepted it as fact.I think you mean the orange area, and yes. I went back to check the screenshots I took and realised that the spike was supposed to be 4 pixels lower.

Programming Questions / Re: game maker help
« on: December 05, 2013, 01:21:06 AM »
When I first got into Game Maker I had almost no coding experience. So, I sat down one night and read the Game Maker help manual.
I didn't remember everything at first. So I would refer back to the manual whenever I needed a reminder. Eventually, everything becomes second nature and you can code with ease. The rest just comes up to logical thinking and math.

Programming Questions / Re: HELP
« on: December 02, 2013, 07:08:46 AM »Well I'm pretty sure the 'S' key is a event in the player object.
Just put the Event of Pressing the S key in the player, if he doesn't exists (which he doesn't if you touch a spike), then it won't save.
If not, well yeah that would be a problem.

You could do place_meeting+speed to check for spikes before allowing a succesful save.
If !place_meeting(x+hspeed,y+vspeed,playerKiller) and keyboard_check_direct(ord('S')) { saveGame(); }
You should probably add a key to allow the player to restart at the start of the room.

Game Design / Re: Ressource sites for sprites, sounds etc. ?
« on: November 29, 2013, 02:30:20 PM »
Whenever I want to make my own sound effects I use this tool:
https://www.bfxr.net/
Then I use Audacity and add weird effects to my sounds using plugins:
https://audacity.sourceforge.net/
Otherwise, one of the only place I know where to find sound effects is this:
https://www.themushroomkingdom.net/wav.shtml
The rest of the sound effects you can use a emulator and record using Audacity by cutting off the sound channels that the sound is not using. Nestopia and ZSNES have that feature.
