Game Maker

you don't. Get Microsoft XNA. It's free, and WAAAAAAAAY better than game maker.

A simple way is to set random alarms.

E.g.

Create Event:
set Alarm 0 to random(100)


Alarm Event for alarm 0:
create instance of object obj_bullet at relative position (0,0)
create instance of object obj_bullet at relative position (0,0)
create instance of object obj_bullet at relative position (0,0)
set Alarm 0 to random(100)

Simples!

You can only puchase it

follow these steps:

1.learn the basics of game maker language

2.figure out how to make a good "platformer engine" or find an engine.

3.if you can't draw sprites go to "sprite database.com"

4. try making a more simple game first

5.once you've figured out game maker, this should make sense:

------------to make AI chase player "right"

--------step event

..........if x>objplayer.x+32(or how ever close you want AI to chase)

..................(if this is true) hspeed=6(or how ever fast you want)

to go "left'=(change > to < , and change + to -)

to make AI jump=(change x to y)

this is really all i think you could understand, you've got to figure rest out on your own. making a "fighter" is not a good start for "beginners".

Have several lines around the track. If a car passes one, set a global variable to +1, only once, and if done in the right order. Once all checkpoints are checked, the finish line may be passed. This makes it so that you cannot drive back and forth across the finish line, and is rather simple to implement. Have it then do it 2 more times. You now have a 3 lap race.

this is a stupid question

you can add an event by clicking the "add event" button below your list of events, or right click the event list, select add event, then choose the event you would like to add.

jump, and press jump in mid air. some characters can jump multiple times.

Game Maker 8 on YoYo Games is a good one. Understandable language. Easily makable, great potential.

In the file menu of the sprite editor, click create from strip

As this question is based in Airports then its assumed the response will be "Chicago O'Hare International Airport (IATA: ORD, ICAO: KORD, FAA LID: ORD".

The easiest way to jump is by entering this code in the correct places. You could set the gravity but this way is easier. This will work in both the pro and lite

put this code in you Create event of you player

falling=false; //Variable for Falling

hitting=false; //Variable for if you are hitting something

grav=7; //Gravity

movement=6; //Speed at which you move

jump=0; //Used for jumping

jumping=false; //If you are jumping or not

space=false; //if space is pressed

doublejumping=false //if doublejumping

doublej=0; //for doublejumping

put this code in you step event of you player

//FALLING:

if(!collision_point(x,y,ground,true,false) && !jumping && !doublejumping) //not touching ground, or jumping{

y+=grav; //Move down the number gravity

grav=7; //Keeps gravity set

falling=true; //says the player is falling

}

if(keyboard_check_pressed(vk_space)){ //if keypressed SPACE

space=true //space=true. For other purposes

}

if(keyboard_check_released(vk_space)){ //if space not pressed

space=false //space is false

}

if(space=true && jumping==false) //if space is pressed, and jumping is false{

jumping=true; //jumps

space=false //space no longer pressed

}

if(space=true && jumping==true && doublejumping=false) //if space pressed, player jumping, and not doublejumping {

doublejumping=true //doublejumps

jumping=false //no more jumping

}

if(jumping) //if jumping is true{

y-=jump; //go up jump

jump-=.5; //lower jump a little

if(jump<0) && doublejumping=false //if jump is nil and not doublejumping {

falling=true; //fall

}

if(jump<-10) { //if jump is below -10, set it to 10

jump=-10;

}

}

if(doublejumping) //if doublejumping{

y-=doublej; //go up doublej

doublej-=.5; //lower doublej a little

if(doublej<0) { //is doublej is nil, fall

falling=true;

}

if(doublej<-10) { //if doublej is below -10, set it to -10

doublej=-10;

}

}

if(collision_point(x,y,ground,true,false) && falling) { //if touching ground and falling

jump=10; //jump is 10, for next jump

jumping=false; //No longer jumping

falling=false; //no longer falling

doublejumping=false //no longer doublejumping

}

if(keyboard_check(vk_left)) { //MOVEMENT. if left key is pressed

x-=movement; //move left

}

if(keyboard_check(vk_right)) { //if right pressed

x+=movement; //move right

}

if falling=false && jumping=true { //if falling is false, and jumping is true

{

doublej=10; //doublej is 10

}

}

Done. if you r having trouble download the example

You make gun sprites the same way you make player sprites. Just make a gun instead of a living thing.

The guns working is harder. Using length_dir, you can make the guns stay near the player, and at the same position as usual. Making the gun point at the mouse is also simple, image_angle = point_direction(x,y,mouse_x,mouse_y). Finally, you have to make the gun shoot. This is simple: Make an obj_bullet in front of the gun.

Now all you need to do is learn how to change the guns, drop / pick them up, make ammo, and do the collisions for the bullet. ;)

What do you mean? You can make a maths game sort of like this: (Create) op=random(4) a=random(difficulty) b=random(difficulty) if (op=0) { correct=a+b } if (op=1) { correct=a-b } if (op=2) { correct=a*b } if (op=3) { correct=a/b } (Any key press) str_answer+=keyboard_lastchar (Enter press) answer=real(str_answer) if (answer=correct) show_message("Correct") else show_message("Incorrect") I am testing code now. I will post corrections. P.S. I forgot to sign in!P.P.S. Optional code: (Draw) draw_set_halign(fa_center) draw_text(x,y,str_answer) if (op=0) { draw_text(x,y-30,a+"+"+b) } if (op=1) { draw_text(x,y-30,a+"-"+b) } if (op=2) { draw_text(x,y-30,a+"*"+b) } if (op=3) { draw_text(x,y-30,a+"/"+b) }

alice is a 3d game maker go to alice.org and click alice.2.2

Also, Unity3D is a very powerful game creation tool. It includes Physics, 3D, lighting and much more. It supports Python (Boo Dialect), C# and JavaScript based scripting.

It costs 20$ and to have someone give you the code is ILLEGAL.

I would start by studying Computer Science.

When two people or more disagree with each other and they express their opinions. Sometimes the argument can be friendly and sometimes unfriendly.

I dont think so,this site is probably only for asking and answering questions

Activate? i dont think you can considering they just released game maker 8

First: save a stand alone executable of your game (file, create executable) 2: To post your game on the official game maker website you need an account on the site http:/www.yoyogames.com
3: when you have an account on yoyo games or any other game maker sharing website click on the share button and upload your game from where you saved the executable.


note: it is not necessary to create a stand alone executable but if you don't want anyone else to download your work and be able to edit it then i suggest you do.

With the 'Splash Movie' action in the 'Main 2' tab

Create a new object with no sprite. Add draw event and go to score tab. Drag 'N Drop 'Draw Health Bar' to the actions column. X2=Desired Height, Y1=0, Y2=Desired 'full' length,y.

An unsound argument is a theory or hypothesis that does not have a logical base. For instance, the idea that the sun revolves around the earth is an unsound argument.
