Re: LINK II ZZT

There are parts of the new on that are better, but I actually think I prefer the first version. Also in this version it seems the idles are wrong, the song seems to go a bit wrong after a few loops. I agree with you 100% There's something about that theme song that makes it hard to manipulate... I'...

Re: LINK II ZZT

Regarding music speed: if #play s ceg is too slow and #play t ceg is too fast, you could try alternating between sixteenth and thirty-second notes, to approximate an in-between speed. I've tried it once before , and it sounded okay to me (but I'm not the most skilled with music). YMMV. Thanks Quant...

Re: Super Mario for MegaZeux

Wow, T-Bone this is some serious skill! Can't wait to play the demo and, ahem-- make some levels. :)
Nice portfolio, btw!

Re: shameless plug

All fixed! I'll see if I can rearrange the intro, yet I don't want it blaring either. Edit: I have an alternate title theme (Link's Awakening) but it's too allegro! I'll try for a medium. I'm done musically except the second half of Skyward theme, which I'm doing from scratch (no suitable MIDI avail...

Re: Lyon

Maybe support overlay for anything above 1:1/fullscreen? I don't really follow.. Excuse me. Direct draw performs moderately well and preserves the pixels, but could Overlay speedup scaling and fullscreen? Compare performance with ZZTBOX in the upload folder... Two video modes are in that config fil...

Re: Archeologist simulator

I'm picking up an air of Dr. Jones. :) Kingdom of the Crystal Skull ® exceeded my expectations but If I were to dig for inspiration I would go for more of a Young Indy Chronicles ™ kinda feel. I bet you've got it all worked out under the hood. I would love to slap a coat of paint on those storyboard...

Re: Lyon

I've got a few suggestions from an end-user perspective but here's a couple issues: There seems to be a bottleneck in audio/video output. (quality is good though) Maybe support overlay for anything above 1:1/fullscreen? #change fake monitor produces a crash. (I use these hidden fakes to lock the pla...

Re: shameless plug

Trying to do too much in zzt (i.e absurd graphic stylings) can easily put you off finishing a game. I've started a few with high standards and completed none, but games where I just focused on doing what I wanted to do game-wise, I finished. Anyway, your screens inspired me to fiddle around with on...

Re: shameless plug

Thanks! Graphics is Nintendo/Sweeney/Janson inspired all the way. I tried to pickup where Rotaj and EvilMario left off way back in '97 but kicked ZZT to the curb when I discovered her limits the hard way. It may have a nostalgic feel to it, as many of those ideas came back to life.
