(unknown title)-Development Thread.

[Gregg Richardson]

First... I would like to thank baardbi for creating the NESMaker BBI Modules with the help of the NESMaker members' patches. Thanks to all of these members for patching the Nesmaker.

I had tried the original NESMaker Adventure Module and realized there is no save and load script. I played around with this in a simple demo and quietly left NESMaker until last July. I tried using BBI Modules 2.2.2. and watched Unofficial NESmaker Tutorials on YouTube. It helps me to get a better start on making an Adventure game. By far, BBI adventure modules 2.2.2. It is a big improvement. Every Sunday, I watch, learning, and spend time making it.

I am making a basic adventure game.

So far, progress.

The title is blank with two options to start a new game or load a game, both are working. Even saving the game is working too.

Both male and female are complete. Standing, moving, attacking, and being hurt. I have not decided which one will be the main character for this game.

The layout of the village is almost done; it needs to add more NPCs and move their furniture around randomly per house. (6 houses in total)

The layout of the first-level forest is done; it needs to add monsters and a boss.

Known issues.

If rapidly pressing the attack button causes the attacking animation to be cut shorter, and replaces the newer attacking animation sooner. It causes slow in the game speed. I need something that disables the input button when press an attack button, then enables the input button when the attack animation completes.

Solved: Thanks, dale_coop. When attacking 4 enemies get a greater risk of getting bounced the hurt coil back and forth between two monsters to death. I need something that the players won't get rebounced and won't be hurt more for a few seconds.

Gameover screen isn't working because I changed the bottom overworld into High Resolution mode on a row will allows placement of 8x8 pixel titles. I will rewatch the YouTube video to make sure I didn't miss anything.

- To prevent the attack animation from restarting while the player is already attacking, in your attack input script, find the line:

ChangeActionStep temp, #02

And change it to:

GetActionStep temp
CMP #02
BEQ +skip
  ChangeActionStep temp, #02 
+skip:

- For your player's hurt state, you could implement invincibily frames, like explained in this post: https://www.nesmakers.com/index.php?threads/adding-invincibility-frames-to-4-5-9.7220/#post-49793

Add invincibility script works on Adventure BBI 2.2.2.

Attack animation is 50% fixed. It fixed the main character's attacking animation, but the weapon animation isn't fixed.
