ENIGMA Development Environment

You are right, I'm not even joking. I'm going to bed.

~Good night!

high standards !

ROTFLMAO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boy you are really that fucking daft ?  Hey Time Killer I think you found your perfect match.  Maybe you can help one another with your gay games.

It at least to me doesn't really matter what resolution is used as it automatically gets scaled to fill the screen (much like the full-scale option on windows) when running the apk. But the aspect ratio does matter if the width < height fixed portrait should be used otherwise landscape. But typically I recommend 4:3 like 320x420 or 640x480 for small games and 1024x768 or even as big as 1280x960., which is what I typically use. If your game isn't 4:3 an easy fix would be change the view ports in the first room's view settings to be 4:3 and the viewport can't be set at runtime so whatever you set the w/h view ports to in the first room then all the rooms and views of that index will have that w/h  view port.

virtual_key_add() can simulate keyboard press/released/down by making a tapp-able rectangular areas on the touch screen which will act like the keyboard buttons. The problem with this however, we as human beings have only two thumbs, so due to the way most people hold their device is kinda like a game controller. But technically only the thumbs can press the buttons in that posture due to moibile devices and tablets are rectangular and not shaped like a console controller. So each hand can only press one button at a time.  Meaning you can only press two buttons (one on each side of the screen) simultaneously which can be a major problem, a fairly easy way around it however is to make a virtual joystick.

I've never had issues with running my games on android and I've made games well over 100s of MB made mostly of large sprites and backgrounds. I really don't think we'll have much trouble getting your games to work how they should on mobile. All this hardware limitations and crap I'm very certain won't be an issue with you as it hasn't been for me and I use rediculously sized sprites especially when I make pre-rendered 3D Myst games we are talking multiframe sprites as big as 1024x760 and panoramic textures as big as 2048x2048 trust me dude it won't be a problem. =)

Wow - you are really taking it to high standards, that's nice, that's exactly what I am aiming for.  Are you using GM Studio or ENIGMA from scratch ? I was not even aware one could use such big sprites in GM Studio.  I read on forums about some people complaining of not being able to use large resources particularly on the GMC forums, and I have noticed this too.   So you are using pre-rendered stuff, great, that's what I intend to do as well, using 3D elements in a 2D game, using pre-rendered sprites, blending everything together.
As far as 3D rendered scenes that's great for building adventure games.
Which program would be good to use if I want to render rooms with lights, tables, objects, halls, doors, etc, if I want to build an adventure game ?

Of course by using those big resources they take quit a lot of RAM in GM:S, I don't know how ENIGMA handles it, but from what I recall back in the GM days the bitmap was stored twice ?  Sound is stored uncompressed and so I must assume you have a lot of RAM.  Also to do the pre-rendered 3D sprite or large objects, those take a lot of RAM too, especially the large, multiframe sprites

In GM:S I remember projects of only 2-4MB when run would take 50-100MBs of RAM, imagine when using pre-rendered / multiframe sprites, large resources.

You are a psycho. Someone should put you in a straitjacket. Don't you reallize how you're acting is the least bit crazy?

Don't call our games shit unless you have the balls to prove you can barely cough up something remotely half as decent. Easier said than done. if youre so badass prove you are instead of throwing seriously annoying cry baby rants.Until you do this, I have no possible means to take you seriously. Just a thought.

I'll have to say you guys are right, I really did blow it out of proportions. That's what typically happens when I post on impulses. I'll continue to do my best in avoiding such. Sorry about that.

You seem to blow a lot of things lately, out of impulses.

FEEL IT !

Can you PLEASE stop harrasing me.

Also I'm not "feeling" anything other than being annoyed by your personal attacks and mindless spam.

I'm not making up anything, and it's not bogus. whether some of the platforms were made in GM still doesn't change the fact some of the ports aren't. They need to credit the platforms that weren't made with GM so it won't be misleading or lead to misunderstanding. That's all I meant. I have no clue what your point is.

MAKE UP YOUR MIND.

It doesn't sound like you suggested this, but did they succeed in suing YYG? I really hope so.

YoYoGames' "GM game of the month" wasn't made in GM. Boy are they stupid. The person who submitted this shit to their showcase just wanted any bit of extra publicity they could get their hands on.

It's for PS4, Vita, and WiiU I'm very positive he used a cross platform tool that wasn't GMS because these platforms aren't possible. I highly doubt he re-wrote that game from the ground up in GM just so he could have PC, Mac, and Linux support because he most likely was using an engine that already exported those. I really doubt he re-wrote his game a single time for this.

It's really pissing me off that either way he's getting his game featured, advertised on their home page, and a contest winner when worst case scenerio it wasn't even made in GMS, whether whole or in part.
