Hello all,
Im currently working on my game Cronius:Artifact Merceneries and was wondering if someone could help me with a boss script.

Basically the boss is an walkabout and you have to fight him in the map mode. I was hoping you could make it so that if you pressed space then it would check to see which direction you were facing and put a graphic there of a sword slicing for about 1 second. I want the effect like in Red MavRickZero's game smoking magoo. But I not only would I like this but I would like to know how I could script it so the boss attacked you as well with special moves. Like his claws and throwing boulders at you. One of his special move I would like to suspend the hero and make the Boss attack him this by using a special golden harp. Well if this makes anysense please post a reply with help. It is confusing but it is also hard to explain....

The different things I plan for the scene is:
A 15x15 area where you fight him
Boss running around trying to kill u with his claws
Hero trying to kill Boss using sword
Boss special attacks (Boulder,Harp Attack)
Boss being killed script.

Now Im not the best plotscripter but I can do basic effects like when the boss being killed then make graphics of blood squirting etc...


Look forward to your *positive* response's......

Hmm...you want a sword? Look for James Paiges 'Sample Zelda Attack' game. Also, in Smoky Mcgoo, I think it comes with the scripts. I, myself, can't script worth sh!t, but those should hopefully give you enough info.

Good luck.

I made the scripts for Smokey McGoo, so I would be glad to help. Unfortunately, Smokey McGoo is not the best zelda-style game by far, since much lag exists and I had a limited time to complete it (I hope to change it to be pixel-based and lag-free soon! I'm working hard, or hardly working...one of the two ). However, I cannot simply post a script for you to use.

What I can do is this:

I can teach you how to make the boss.

You can send me you game file with direction explaining exactly what you want to happen, and I can make the boss for you and put in many comments explaining to you how the script works.

Let me know which you would prefer. Also, do you have AIM or Yahoo Messenger? It would make it a lot easier to talk with you .

I'd be glad to help,too. i've been able to make my own sword script before(although it mysterioulsy stoped working and overflowed the script buffer when you held bottuns to walk). I definitly think I can help you with the boss though.
