SyntaxBomb - Indie Coders

currently working on to create my first game ever , it is a simple slide puzzle game in blitzmax , with three modes of difficulty beginner,intermediate and expert  . It is in final stages of completion .

QuoteDoes AGK also supports DBO files? which has lightmap and multitexture support format like B3D? or does it just use .obj files and  generate the lightmapped object on the fly? I would assume it still uses DBO since AGK got some features from its DBPro predecessor.

..AGK file format support is very nice..it does support major formats (Collada, FBX, X), and of course OBJ, B3D and so on..what im fighting is certain inconsistency which im trying to pin down, process of lightmaping for example, will be straightforward...in fact, it is straightforward already, if you judge trough provided command set, as, commands exactly dedicated for that (lightmaping) does exists..but for some reason..i just cant get it to work..and apparently, AGK forum members as well...

btw what are the forum codes to get a full screen picture like playniax's? 

All the codes should be here.  http://www.syntaxbomb.com/index.php/topic,2.0.html

Yes, that's fine for people hosting their own screenshots.  But what is the URL for an uploaded image to SyntaxBomb?  Only the thumbnail web address can be found.

Hey Steve, just upload your screenshot to your gallery, load the page and just copy the url, at least that's what I'm doing. See example here..

Thanks RonTek!   

Right now I am converting my very old BlitzBasic games to BlitzMax to support Mac and Linux.

I am planing to port them to iOS and Android using AGK unless I figure a way to use BlitzMax NG to do the job.

You'r welcome!

It looks like you are an anti-Windows guy, if I got it right

Lol! They make it so easy though.
That said, anti is a bit much.

Ive got my blitz3d coding mojo back and am working on a space strategy that has play by email functionality.

Now that sounds cool Matty! I'd love to play it.

Sure thing Steve though it would be nice to just use attachments directly.

Edit: I think it works, just need to get the image url on another page (again), but the thumbnail attachment is also displayed.

Yes, I updated my original post.  I think it looks better to have (a reasonably sized) screen shot, rather than a download attachment.

Attachments are really for a demo program or code to pop into an IDE.

Right now I'm slooooowly working on my game entry for the Halloween competition.

Loads to do yet, fancy effects to add etc etc but it's beginning to take shape - Hopefully in about a week I can actually start turning it into a game.
