Here's an idea that I was thinking of pulling off. A Street Fighter RPG. There's tons of material... Of course, excecuting that is another story.

how could you possibly give up on something that looks that promising?


have you considered collaborating with someone?

Don't feel like doing your own story? Do a re-make of another game perhaps. Wink

Nah, dont do a remake.

Books are where it's at if you want to wealth of never-been-done stories. If you hate copyrights, do an old one, like beowolf for something.

Hey, I only recently got back from home, where I didnt have a computer I could do art on. so i'll start on that next bit of free time available.

I can't see your screen shot. I can write something if you want though...

Whatever, can I look at the source code for the engine PLEEEEZE?

...Or you could just help me with the rotation origin points.


For now, I'm just working into the space. I'm having way too many problems with first person as of yet.

Here's a crude (almost caveman like) example of what I'm trying to say...


You have two arrays. Both defined as X,Y,Z. One array is for the World, and the other is for the 3D OBJ's within the world.

So for my question, lets say that...
OBJ(B).X=WorldX(W).X...etc...

It's easy to make OBJ(B).X rotate around the World(W).X axis, way out ther in space, but how do you make point World(W).X rotate around the Camera(Player).X axis, as if you were moving around in a room, while calculating in the fact that there is another 3d OBJ that needs a supplementary angle function?

This is probably vague as hell...
Sorry if I've frustrated anyone! :barf:

May I suggest the Demon Witch series by Geoffrey Huntington? Excellent series. New.
