[sporemisio]

question (how do u make it change level when u it a block? cose im having problams with that) DDD:

[3kliksphilip]

@sporemisio It's no more difficult than any other changelevel.

player collides with block, jump to next frame.

[hrrobloxfan]

How can i make score?

Plz reply

[3kliksphilip]

@hrrobloxfan Instead of inserting an active object, insert a 'counter' object into your map. You can then customise it within the options, and in the event editor you can add numbers to it for certain events (ie, enemy spaceship blows up)

[hrrobloxfan]

@3kliksphilip

Can you send me a video instead?!

[3kliksphilip]

@hrrobloxfan I'll do that in my own time.

[sporemisio]

@hrrobloxfan ill try to make a vid for u about that

[ngyuenkei28]

wht software did u use?

[3kliksphilip]

@ngyuenkei28 Read the description

[ngyuenkei28]

@3kliksphilip i see~ i am doing a school project, may i know if u suggest me to use game factory or game maker(coz i dun know the different between them)?plz

[3kliksphilip]

@ngyuenkei28 Game maker is free, but I have no idea what it's like. Scirra Construct is another free one you could use. It's pretty much exactly like TGF2, but free. TGF is free, but very old and limited.

[ngyuenkei28]

@3kliksphilip really?I'll try Scirra Construct then.well thx a lot. i'll subscribe u

[mariodude89]

why are you so quiet

[3kliksphilip]

@mariodude89 Actions speak louder than words

[mariodude89]

@3kliksphilip

that's not a good excuse

[3kliksphilip]

@mariodude89 No, what do you want me to say?

[3kliksphilip]

@thedragonb0y I agree, plus 3D games are far more complex and will probably end up not as much fun. I make games in 2D, and map for Half Life 2 in 3D. Best compromise :)

[TTNGucker]

I can finally begin.

[3kliksphilip]

@TTNGucker ...but can you finish? MWHAHAHAHA

[TTNGucker]

@3kliksphilip

Yeah that's a good question.

[ChrisCaelanThomas]

@3kliksphilip I MADE A WHOLE GAME AND FINISHED IT!!! EPIC!!! AND IT'S MULTIPLAYER!!!

[TaceoPC]

Hi, you should do another tutorial like this using the more advanced and better way of doing a game. ^^

[3kliksphilip]

@TaceoPC Yeah, I should do that :P

[alexmeanberg]

You know, I want to yell at you for using Unregistered Hypercam 2. But I just respect you too much.

[3kliksphilip]

@alexmeanberg Don't worry, I've moved on a long way since then. And so has youtube.

[evillord77]

how do i make the object in question a bouncy ball object?

[3kliksphilip]

@evillord77 Select it so that its properties come up, then click on the icon that looks like a player running. For more information, WATCH THIS VIDEO!

[evillord77]

@3kliksphilip i did make it ACTIVE.

[3kliksphilip]

@evillord77 If you made it an active object then you will be able to choose bouncy ball movement from the movement selection tab.

[slicernce]

I have a question, how do you make it so that the player is forced to press two buttons at the same time? For example, i want the player to press D and A to actiavte a special attack. I don't know how to do that...

[3kliksphilip]

@slicernce I'd make it so that when you press a button, it sets an alterable value to 5. Do the same for the other button, but with a different alterable value. Make an event that always takes 1 off the alterable values. This means that you'll have 0.1 of a second to press one button after the other, and for it still to work. Make the event 'alterable value is above 0' and then in the same event, do the same for the other alterable value. The event should now work.

[Addictinggameguides]

no BOUNCE button highlited ?

[3kliksphilip]

@Addictinggameguides You haven't made the object in question a bouncy ball object (or platform, or 8 direction movement...)

[DestWa]

How to make a Object point at the mouse pointer? Sorry if this in somewhere in the video as I can't remember such.

[3kliksphilip]

@DestWa You can't make it look towards the mouse, only towards an active object. So first of all, make an active object that always positions the active object to the x and y position of the mouse.

[DestWa]

@3kliksphilip Oh i see, How retarded of me, Btw All your videos are nice *like the juggling!!*

[Aw3someNick]

Holy crap man, you make the best tutorials for the best programs.. A long time ago I got started using this program, and I took a class for it so I knew a lot about it already, but there have been quite a few things I've learned from you. I also learned how to use Hammer editor from you! Thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it.

[stoverstar41]

i went to make the ball movement and bounce and it dose not high light it so i can click on the bounce botton

[3kliksphilip]

@stoverstar41 Make sure that you've chosen an Active Object, and not a backdrop object.

[destraction100]

how can I make the game to destroy all the bricks and then go to an other level?

[3kliksphilip]

In the event editor, you make a new event. Right click on the picture of the brick object, and choose 'pick or count' and choose 'Have all (name of brick object)s been destroyed?'

That should make a new event, from there you can make it go onto the next level.

[brrapscrollcheck]

Nice sound.

[CianThEfuR]

I cant hear you very well

[TheGhostsprite]

i need you to reply this really fasy i attempted to make a game for my sisters birthday and its in a week i attempted to make an object apear when you press a button and it wont work what did i do wrong????

[3kliksphilip]

@TheGhostsprite Depends how you made it. Still interested?

[TheGhostsprite]

@3kliksphilip well i already figured it out but thanks for replying i love your videos

[MegaEditorman]

First it was boring to create... But when u see and realy want to create a game... OMG this program is awesome better than game maker...

[GamingSkool]

Soooo quiet, but good

[haag963]

oi mate, nice vid, butt my ball cant bounce i cant check in bounce like on 4:10

[haag963]

sry about for 3:50

[3kliksphilip]

You've already asked this

[Beardactal]

How do you make it so when your character collides with a wall and blocks the playe?like i don't want anything like a bounce or somthing i don't know how to make a solid wall..

[3kliksphilip]

Person collides with backdrop, stop person. (Movement ---> stop)

To make a solid wall you select it if it's a backdrop object , and choose OBSTACLE in the properties on the left hand side of the screen.

[SonicXVIDEOX]

dude this is so fast -.-

[3kliksphilip]

Don't worry! A new, far better tutorial should be out soon.

[philomatic93]

What program do you use to film your videos?

[3kliksphilip]

It says on the screen :P

[Scourgeandmephiles93]

look in the upper-left corner.

[fede9520]

i cant select bounce

[3kliksphilip]

It needs to be an active object

[fede9520]

is an active objet but still doesnt work

[3kliksphilip]

It needs to have bouncy ball movement.

[Inatje]

can u make 2d plattformer

[3kliksphilip]

Yes

[Inatje]

can you make a guide forme

[3kliksphilip]

I'll get around to it some time

[Chainer314]

The sound is kind of low, can you re upload and/or annotations? Thanks much for the tutorial anyways!

[3kliksphilip]

Yes I will

[TheZipix]

0:21 Wow Can You Make A Tutoroal On How To Do That?

[3kliksphilip]

They're just bouncy ball objects that fire at near by enemies occasionally

[TouShinku]

wow... after using game maker for like forever using this is a lot harder. Trust me if you download a tutorial or an engine for GM it will be a lot easier than this. a lot easier. Well at least if your not used to any other game making program. GM does not suck!!!!!! If you know how to use it it's awesome!!!!!!!!

[3kliksphilip]

After using MMF2 for a while Game Maker is harder :P

Construct is a free game making program. See what you think of that.

[TouShinku]

game maker is free yet you can pay for an upgrade. You can make plenty of games without pro ver.

[3kliksphilip]

Construct is totally free for the best version.

[TouShinku]

well it doesn't matter if one is better or not but yet if you can use it well and it's comfortable for the user.

[gman76757473]

i think the coding would be more fun becauseyou can make great mods (like gmod) and you can feel like "i did this... from scratch!!" i just think its more realistic

[3kliksphilip]

Yeah, I suggest you look up a program called Construct, it's a free version of this.

[gman76757473]

ok, thanks by the way

[slugheads1]

oh yes one more thing what is the hot spot and the other thing you were howing??

[3kliksphilip]

Hotspot - point the object rotates around

Actionspot - Point from which bullets are fired

[jonalynBaBy16]

i have question when i installed the multimedia fusion why the movements is not active.when i try to create a game the ball cannot bounce when i click the movements theirs no bounce is not active why?

[3kliksphilip]

You need to make it an active object. Backdrop objects won't have movement properties.

Have you set it to bouncy ball movement yet?

[slugheads1]

hey philip did you get my games i sended you?? i need ed some help to get my time one them? how do you put a timer on the game so you can see how much time you ahve left and so you know when your dead pls comment back or do a tutorial on it pls need help

[WeretFilms]

I'm working on a MGS type game, but I need to know how to make a cardboard box item :(

[3kliksphilip]

It would be an active object type.

[BodyGarth95]

[junka22]

[HamerOggy]

[HamerOggy]

[slugheads1]

[JimmyDuncs]

I Cant Get The Ball To Bounce

[RollingPepsi]

very nice video but do be onest i cant be asked

[lmfaoYrX]

sound sucks ass 1/5

[DarkSamus109]

0:12

[idk243]

i cant get it to do the bounce. i made all the items and then i go to the screen, I put in the ball and put all the arrows that point out on and then i click in the box below the ball and then i right click it and when i go to movement it has all the options in grey so i cant pick any of them.

[HearChipmunks]

i will try to understand what your saying.

[TheEvilStarOo]

I have a question regarding the bouncy ball game... would it be possible to make like Power-ups like make the ball go through blocks and have it last a certain number of seconds?

[FlashySenap]

So far I've done the active objects in TGF, then input them in MMF2 or TGF2 (but the MMF2 does not work atm)

[FlashySenap]

It's trivial things in reality, but I had easier time creating grand items with the older versions than the later ones, I dont feel like I'm in complete controll.

[FlashySenap]

The only thing I hate with the MMF2 or TGF 2 is the creating object thing. I've been using KnP and TGF1 a long time and The creating way is so diffrent I simply just dont feel comfortable

With that part. Other than that THe more recent programs are much better and enjoyable to use.

[SpraxIAKS]

Meh. Shall learn coding and seven years? If you're trying two months every year.

[b1naryguy]

lol

[rnazay]

talk louder

[dodopod]

Y'know? in seven years you could probably have gotten enough coding skill to make that kind of game.

[wr2gamer]

hey! when i make "test position of "active 2"" and press ok then is the font red and i cant choose "bounce"! plz help me

[chrisrocksurworld]

thxs

[chrisrocksurworld]

[NeilD323]

hey cheers man, the fastest response ive ever had on here! Im probly gona buy this, just have 2 shop around, it'l also c if theres updates 4 GF. L8r dude!

[Funklink]

what is game factry?

[NeilD323]

Hey mate! Glad to have found out about this. ill download the demo, then buy it eventually i reckon. Ive made games on klick n play, then games factory since i was 10 years old, i find games factory conflicts with other programmes though and can make your computer run slower and screw up now & then. (from my experience). Does MMF2 compare? I wouldnt want it to cause other programmes 2 crash like games factory did. Looks well cool tho :)

[Funklink]

hey , if ur going to download the3 deom do u have windows vista and does the demo work cuz on my vista it doesnt so could u tell me where 2 find it?
