Where is the map editor? I cannot find
it. Neat program though.

There is no map editor in here, but I
am quite impressed by your example.
You have skill.

I just resubmitted this, and it now
runs much better. I used a while loop
to move / animate the character, and it
runs much faster and more reliabley.

I cant load the program, i get a
message saying
"'Retained' is an
invalid key" So I cant get in. Any help?
|
8/19/1999 6:01:00 PM:Matt
I'm not sure what that error is or how
it is caused. It could be that your
not running VB6, I guess. Also, I was
wondering if anybody else has tried
running this on a Pentium 2 266 or
higher. I'm using a while loop instead
of a timer, so it might run too fast on
faster systems. Any feed back on this
would be very helpful.

Rob, here's how you fix the Invalid Key
errors.
Open up the .vbp fle in
notepad. If it says "Retained" is an
invalid key, you'd delete the line
similar to Retained=0
If it says
something else is an invalid key, you
delete that line too. That's how you
convert VB6 to VB5

Thanks for the help! It worked, and I
loved the program!

Map Editor: when i am making a house
and I place the black Object and it
asks for "What does this door point
to?" I have no Idea of what goes there,
after typing something i get an error
message "Error '13', type mismatch"
then after clicking debug it gives me a
line which i see no errors in "a =
InputBox(" Where does this door point
to?", "Map Editor")" RPG engine: ok
here goes : you know when the character
moves, and it goes to the top of the
map it takes you to the next map, first
of all it eats my 450 intel, and second
i wanted to know if you could make all
the maps load on startup so its smooth
scrolling no load time when going
between maps, i've probily lost you but
anyway, just make all the maps connect
at startup so all load time is in
begging only, well if you have followed
at all please mail me at
'YoryAezel@aol.com',P.S please e-mail
me if you can help me in anyway....

Everyonce in a while when I am walking
around and it loads a new section of
the map the game will basically freeze
and wait a very long time before
loading the new section. I'm running a
500 mhz 800x600 how can I fix this??
|
9/14/1999 8:34:00 PM:larkins
How do i get the map editor working?
|
9/16/1999 7:42:00 PM:Matt
Nick: I'm working on having it load an
entire area all at once (it'll display
a little 'Loading...' message in the
center screen while doing so) which
should fix the problem if it stopping
for a while when it loads a map. I
really didn't think that'd be a prolem;
it loads each map in less then a second
on my computer.
Also, the Map Editor
isn't ment to be a working program yet,
it's not really to the point where I'd
consider it usable. It won't be for a
while, cause I'm more concerned with
getting the actual engine up and
running.
Also, almost got version 3
ready to post... It's got much better
graphics and a cool GUI with nice hand
drawn character pics... I'll be posting
it soon.

Hey guys......... Heres a cool way to
get rid of the retained key that VB6
leaves behind, without having to use
notepad.
When you open the project,
and you get the Retained Error, click
yes and continue to load the project.
If any OCX's aren't found keep
loading.
Then be sure to reference
any components that vb5 didn't pick up
on.
then dave the project, and
reload it!!
No notepad required.
|
9/27/1999 9:14:00 PM:same as above
uh... that's Save the project.
|
9/30/1999 1:38:00 AM:Ed
"daveing" the project sounds pretty
interesting though
|
9/30/1999 12:31:00 PM:Bob

can someone make a project that makes a
charcter move around screen with a
transparent edges (so you can see the
background), like in this rpg. Nothing
too complicated. I just wan't to know
how to do it.
|
9/30/1999 11:20:00 PM:Timothy Pew
I have a partically complete map editor
that works with the format this source
code uses, if anyone is interested.
It's much nicer than the supplied one
and more flexible.

Maybe timer

I get the message ' "retained" is an
invalid key...' please help..
|

Hi. To clear this up once more, if you
keep getting the "'Retained' is an
invalid key" error, it's due only
because of one reason. YOU'RE NOT USING
VB6!
There is, however, a way to fix
it. Edit the .vbp file in a TEXT
EDITOR, NOT VB. There should be a line
towards the bottom reading
"Retained=0". Wipe out the whole line.
Viola. Problem solved!
|
12/31/1999 11:31:17 AM:Duh!!!!
If it says you have an invalid key type
value, your probrably using the deluxe
learning edition of VB

i tried this on a p2 400 mmx and it ran
fine...not too fast
|
12/7/2000 10:13:53 AM:Alpha
Excellent project! Keep working!
|
12/7/2000 10:24:04 AM:Alpha
Only 1 Question. What does it do? I
walked every where and found
nothing.
Wait... There's a picture
missing. sa03.bmp or something. I went
north, north, and north and it reported.
|
12/7/2000 5:51:27 PM:Matt
It's not really suppost to do anything,
it's just a basic engine that doesn't
have anything like bad guys
implimented. Really all you can do is
walk around.
The missing maps are
simply maps that I hadn't yet completed
when I uploaded the code.

Whoa! This is TOO fast! I can't cross
those little bridges! lol
Excellent
