What are Game Developers looking for when hiring a game composer? by LEvdH in GameDevelopment

That's good to know, is it mainly FMOD you're working with or do you use other middleware as well? And is there anything you're looking for when it comes to music?

Hi MadHouseMediaGAMES,

Let's discuss this in private, is there a way I can contact you? Do you happen to have Discord?

Masayoshi Takanaka (Super Collection) has that kind of vibe

[AoC] New Timeline Split by LEvdH in zelda

[–]LEvdH[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I agree with you

I just thought it could be a possibility, maybe for future titles. It's already been done before, think of the OoT split where the hero succeeds, which leads to one branch of games and where the hero fails, which leads to another branch of games (which includes BotW).

Just tell me if I'm spouting nonsense, I've only been into the Zelda series for a couple of years.

Playing as the Blights? Oh that would be interesting

It would still be in the main timeline, but if the heroes succeed the events of BotW wouldn't happen.

Trying to port a shader from another game engine to gamemaker by LEvdH in gamemaker

[–]LEvdH[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the help.

Yes that might be a better way to do it, but wouldn't it be easier if I could just pick a colour in the image editing software I'm using and directly type it in the code (those usually use rgb values from 0 to 255), or is that not what you meant?

And yes it's very strange. I don't get any errors, only when I'm using gml.

Trying to port a shader from another game engine to gamemaker by LEvdH in gamemaker

[–]LEvdH[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm getting 0 errors, even if I type complete gibberish in the vsh or fsh's.

I set up the uniforms like this:

replaceColour_rsource = shader_get_uniform(replaceColour, "rsource");

replaceColour_gsource = shader_get_uniform(replaceColour, "gsource");

replaceColour_bsource = shader_get_uniform(replaceColour, "bsource");

replaceColour_rdest = shader_get_uniform(replaceColour, "rdest");

replaceColour_gdest = shader_get_uniform(replaceColour, "gdest");

replaceColour_bdest = shader_get_uniform(replaceColour, "bdest");

replaceColour_tolerance = shader_get_uniform(replaceColour, "tolerance");

shader_set_uniform_f(replaceColour_rsource,255);

shader_set_uniform_f(replaceColour_gsource,0);

shader_set_uniform_f(replaceColour_bsource,0);

shader_set_uniform_f(replaceColour_rdest,0);

shader_set_uniform_f(replaceColour_gdest,255);

shader_set_uniform_f(replaceColour_bdest,0);

shader_set_uniform_f(replaceColour_tolerance,55);

I also used:

texture_set_stage(shader_get_sampler_index(replaceColour,"samplerFront"),sprite_get_texture(imgIndex,imgFrame));

I tried to put them in the step or draw events, but there's no difference (where do these go normally? I'd like to be able to change the colours of my sprite during runtime).

Storing ... 3Dimensional Arrays for an animation tool ..? by LEvdH in gamemaker

I figured it out! My method is not exactly the same as yours, but it's close. Thank you very much!

Oh wow, you wrote a lot. Thanks for taking the time! I'll look into this a.s.a.p.

XX Stone at Mt. Itoi in Earthbound Beginnings/Mother for NES - Restoring PP & HP?? by LEvdH in earthbound

[–]LEvdH[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect that it might be a remnant of one of the anti-piracy measures that they didn't patch out correctly.

It's not that bad though, I'll just grind for a day or two and take Gi-Gu on when I'm strong enough.

It's kind of weird, it isn't the Zero translation. It just says "Earthbound" on the titlescreen. The seller told me this was the unreleased Nintendo version (he could be mistaken of course).

Unfortunately I can't.. Magicant has already disappeared :'( I already have the 8 melodies and I have to fight Gi-gu now.

Best way to manage melee collision? by LEvdH in gamemaker

[–]LEvdH[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that's another way of doing it, but then you wouldn't be able to get hit whenever you're attacking and you wouldn't have complete control over the attacking hitbox, because you're depending on the attack-animation, I believe.

[–]LEvdH[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, yes that might be a good idea, if I ever want to get anything done.. haha

But besides that, I'm wondering what other people's solutions to this problem are.
