ENIGMA Development Environment

Enigma developers are sad because their product does not go to a large group. If they want to continue Enigma - I will try to help them with advertising.

For me Enigma-dev is a very important project. Unfortunately I do not know programming in C++ to help them.

I would like to pay for their development, however:
1) They do not want money (in Bitcoins at least)
2) In Poland we earn far less than in Western Europe or in America. For $ 5 in Poland you will buy a decent dinner or small shopping in the store. If $ 5 a month (or more often) you will be enough - I will gladly pay.

Unfortunately, the creators (at least so they wrote) did not want money (or Bitcoins), but more popularity. I decided to fulfill this dream.

For now, I'm working on a series of tutorials so people can send them. I believe that in this way I will popularize as much Enigma as possible.

I wrote an article (pilot) and I would like to start a series of games development in Enigma. I do not want to move all the possible functions, but after a general overview of the program and showing some lines of code - focus on reading the Enigma documentation.

I think that would be best. Unless you have your own vision?

Anyway - would anyone want to improve my articles in the future? The point is that I would translate them into English (but my English is not the best) and then someone would correct any mistakes.

Thanks

Hello

It's a topic for stupid people to learn anything

I wonder whether it is better to use SDL. In general, what exactly it is SDL etc.

It seems to me that the SDL is a library that allows you to write code that runs everywhere (games) - from Windows on the Linux or Android.

It seems to me that if one code can do the same thing everywhere, because it is the layer between the programmer and game. I think I could solve the problem for example. Gamepads (which go under Windows, but Linux does not) if he could make the game appeared on Android.

Is such a move make sense? Ew. how the SDL and acted like Enigma

Hello

Is the function of the type of show_message needs to be set in the Game Settings -> Enima -> API -> Widgets -> GTK +
?

Because if so, should review and improve (if these functions operate) Enigma code in order to patch holes. show_message (etc.) is very important in my opinion function, which unfortunately does not work.

Hello!

Save and Load game is one of the basic things that are needed by people in developing games

Unfortunately, I do not know the way how to do it with enigma
- Game_save and game_load not work at all (not been implemented?)
- INI files do not work under Linux

Other methods do not know

It is possible to implement in the near future, one of the features? I really needed (and others)

Thank you very much for reading

Hello!

Do you have any tutorial about using github with enigma project?

I want to share my source, but it doesn't look good (i can't unzip egm file, bacause when i zip it - enigma can't read) (egm file is little problematic in teamwork)

Hello!

In theory all Enigma projects are compiled by GCC Compiler

It is possible to translate Enigma Code to C++ Code?

Fervi

Hello!

I create tutorial about "creating first game in enigma", it is in Polish, but I want to translate in English. My Language isn't very well, so If somebody can upgrade them.

Hello !

Many people like to play computer games. Some prefer platformers , some bashing , FPS , MMO ...

But few forms game - it seems to be difficult and time consuming

I will try to show you that creating games , it's quite simple ( though sometimes time consuming ) game , in which " takes on " the God : P How else to create something called according to his own ideas ? Of course, we do not have power , but something we create .

First, we should be provided with something in the game where you can create , generally know the two programs, " a fashion " (ie tested ) , and a third did not understand . But then I'll go : D

- Game Editor
Game Editor is a simple clicker , which first of all you need to know English. While most things can be use , then you need to know what to use. The project itself is licensed under the GPL and can convert a number of platforms (mostly old phones and basic three operating systems ( although you can try to compile on BSD or other systems )

- Enigma - dev ( I'm going to use it )
Enigma is intermediate program (if you can call it that) - In general, you can create games by amateurs and by advanced users (of course, the more we can, the more we create miracles ) , based on the EDL ( Enigma Development Language). In general, you can call the program a clone of Game Maker ( Boys generally try to achieve compatibility )

- SandBox Game Maker ( entering into deep water , resort )
Although I tried to learn it - I lost . SBGM used to create RPG , FPS and platforming in 3D ( on the Cube 2 engine ), generally everything looks brilliant and as he was being mastered , it has to beat a lot of games open source ( and of high quality , something I have to play the game: P)


1 ) Planning
The first thing we should do is plan a little bit about the game. It should be given to a few things out (which I write ) . The basic principle - not a figment of 3D games with the campaign at 5000h and wonders on a stick . In fact, if enigma is able to create such wonders , you do such a game would take probably a couple of years . Since you're a beginning filmmakers , we should create a game with minimal complexity , mainly because these things quickly creates (ie quickly see the effects ) and you can quickly end.

The second thing is the graphics, if you do not play text , we should think about it. The problem here is that either create it in paint (or something else ) , or someone will take care of . The problem is that if we can not draw in paint is better not to take . A person who is for us to make - usually smack it ( sad truth ) and the project itself is dying. Top here before the show tileset'y ( graphics) and in the selected game. We should look at : http://opengameart.org them.

Music and sound - this generally is a big problem . You can of course use something or take away from other projects ( why not? ), But do not always fit. It should also be noted that, as you take something from another project , on what license the thing is .

It is from Google Translator with little changes.
