well im at the half way mark now and things are looking good so far.

I have done some minor tutorials inside the dungeon of the castle and now its time for me to put up some fighting scenes.

As i stated before ...this will mostly just be a mockup level.
I want to be really clever with my level design so what i release at the end of this month will most likely change.

I will post some game play soon!

i will not have the editor done yet but you will be able to draw your own character and sandbox battle ground.

-adventure will be a single player rpg
-battle grounds will be a multiplayer field battle up to 4 teams
-options will allow you to configure the keyboard and some minor graphic settings.

Thanks!

im working on it

i had this cool idea that i just coded in.

-the guys are down on their knees while its loading the tiles.
-when the tiles are loaded they all stand up
-menu appears
-they all start walking
-background fades in
-infinate looping back ground as they all move

it looks really dang good!

I pray that paul manages to fix the obj format loading time or i will be forced to convert this back to agk v1.

ah....im gunna fight through it.

it just sucks that it take 2 mins just to test a new chunk of code or even just testing an adjustment.

i would switch to agkv1 however the compiler just sucks.... this new one with the code folding is a huge thing and makes it easier to organize code.

so just maybe i will still have a demo out. This has just increased my development time for the worse!

What happens if you remove the sync call during the loading procedure?

Maybe there is something in the mechanism that is lugging V2 behind? try to analyse it further, maybe you are using an effect or something that is no longer relevant? I hope TGC look at your issue soon...

Are you running v1 and v2 on the same system?
I have not made the move over to v2 yet, but I may give it a try now if I do not have to uninstall v1.

yeah im running both on the same system in different install folders.

there is others complaining about object load times as well so i know its not my code.

most of my models have next to no polys... and they still take a long time to load.

ok im back on track today!

just finished converting all my objects to .ago format

here is a screenshot of the new menu.


i went with a darker outline so you could see depth on the characters and background better!

they walk in the background and the background keeps scrolling threw infinitly!

But does .ago support animation as you use it?

I would risk saying that looks quite polished already... perhaps some shader effects are needed

Mind you I have some further understanding of Vertex and pixel Shaders now currently studying about Textures and such
