Hey guys, I was wondering if I am on the write track? I been hankering for a good Bard's Tale clone make. Don't I use just vector mapping first, then add sprites from two different vector templates: one with a hall, and one with a flat screen... Then I use sprites to decorate the rooms... Is that right? Or is there a easier way?

I am game for criticisms... Long as if it has a point...

S.K.

I have no idea what you are talking about
what is a vector template?

Vector template, evidently is a word I coined at the moment, cause I couldn't come up with a name for it... It might be a skeleton or wire frame... but not the real spazzy 3d ones... This is more of an old school game... like The Bard's Tale, Curse of the Azure Bonds, old Wizardry! and Might and Magic

I have an idea of how to make profiles, but I need to know, what is the simplest way of making a pseudo-3d game (first person RPG)

I decided to go the easy route... It's a pseudo first person game, in the vein of Castle Shadowgate, and Sword of Hope... It will be emence, that is my plan... This will be even easier then to make a game like Wizardry!...

Thanks for all of you have helped me

are you talking about recreating 3D with 2D commands?

In programming, nothing exists
