Static Engine

I need a static engine for a game Im working on, but I'm not good enough to make one myself yet. I've checked the site, but I can't find anything that fits my game. Can someone help me?

I'm actually almost finished one that's for people like you. With details, and simplest events, you can customize it to your liking. Just let me finish, and then I'll upload it.

Thanks!

Good, I need one too.

ZeldaFreak's has a lot of good feature, but it's quite hard to adapt to fit other sprites.

Well, thing is, howto's aren't just there for you to copy and paste events and sprites. You're actually supposed to learn from them. That's why I do comments on mine, so that people can understand, not just try to learn from a bunch of events they can't figure out.


Alright, here you go.

I tried to aply the engine to a normal mario, but the animations are messing up. Can I fix that?

This one doesn't have animations, that's why. It's easy, just make conditions like



If Right button is held - Change animation to walking
If Left button is held - Change animation to walking
If Right button isn't held and left button isn't held - Change animation to stopped

You really need to be a little more advanced than you appear to be before dabbling in static engines.

If you're using TGF you can find good static engine tutorials for beginners on the CD.

What, mine doesn't work? I even put comments for them to understand what's going on.

I already did that. I tried to use the jump animation, but it woudn't work right. I fixed that though, so thanks for the howto!

Yeah, the jump is a little harder for animation. Just in case it doesn't work again, let me tell you:



Make sure the jumping animation is looping, and the falling too.


Value B of Mario greater than 0 - Change animation sequence to Jumping
Value B of Mario less than 0 - Change animation sequence to Falling


He'll have a little weird animation change at the height of his jump, but if your standing animation is good enough, it'll look somewhat cool.

Sorry for bumping this topic, but I've been having trouble trying to get the jumping on the static engine to work right. It keeps sinking into the ground and jumping at random different heights, even after trying the things it says in the comments. Anyone know how to stop these things from happening?

This has been happening to me, too. Someone please tell me what to!

I found this old engine I made over a year ago which has some basic stuff, so mabye it could work for somthing. :X

You need to copy the link and paste it into the address bar in order for the link to work.

I keep wondering why people have a problem with it sinking into the ground. As I said, it creates a 3d-isc atmosphere.

I don't want a 3d-istic atmospere. And the link still won't work.
