Alright. I'll post some images when I get back from school today. I'll simply edit this post...

I think the animation is pretty good as it is now. I would suggest, however, that the front foot come forward instead of the rear foot sliding back. That seems unnatrual for some reason. Also, I think the idea of 'effects' being separate animations would 1) complete the animation by filling in the d...

The other problem with this, however, is that objects on screen disappear when they are out of what I guess I could call the 'view frustum'. This appears to happen when the screen resolution is out of a typical 4:3 ratio (e.g., 640x480, 800x600, 1024x764) and in a much different resolution ration of...

If you are running a client and server from the SVN, you will need to make sure that the account server is giving the client the correct address. I think it's defaulted to localhost (127.0.0.1). If that's the case, be sure to point it to the correct address in the file ' tmwserv.xml ' If you are not...

I'm also using Vista 32 (Home Premium) with no problems running in OpenGL. I get the distinct feeling that users are going to have problems with OpenGL drivers if they are using graphics cards that are either Intel or ATI based -- ATI based cards have always had driver problems for just about everyt...

I don't know why I didn't think of using the object layer for shadows. But it would work for many purposes. The problem I see happening, though, is in the case of objects on the side of buildings. Since the object will be in the objects layer, I couldn't also put a shadow tile there. I suppose that'...

I'm not sure if this topic belongs here or elsewhere so if it's in the wrong forum, be easy on me! :) I had a thought about adding an additional layer to the maps. A 'shadow' layer in which the mapper could lay down shadows. These would be drawn on top of objects but underneath the character sprite....

You may not have downloaded the latest 'nightly build' for CodeBlocks. The main download on its website is an old RC2 1.0 download -- very outdated. Instead, you will need to download the Nightly Build version -- This is the one released... today? Code::Blocks Nightly Build - Feb 06, 2008 . I garant...

Also, perhaps you'd like to bring your questions back to your original thread.

I was only having the problem in key.hpp so my solution worked. Matt, your solution would also work but that, imho, would defeat the purpose of an enum. Regardless, I'm not too terribly concerned with the WinAPI crap because frankly, it's not really needed. So far I havn't suffered any ill effects. ...

Being a developer myself, I would be irritated if somebody was abusing the terms of the GNU GPL . However, that's not to say that whoever this person is hasn't abused the GPL. As the TMW moderators have stated, the game is uninspired. Anybody who just takes a game, changes a few things here and ther...

No trouble running TMW on Vista Home Premium:

SDL/OpenGL both work fine.

Basic Specs:
nVidia GeForce 8800 GT
3GB RAM
AMD 64X DualCorex2

Hope that helps!

Thanks for your reply! After a little bit of fussing with the IDE, low-and-behold, it works! ... mostly. There's a problem with the key enumeration in key.hpp (expected identifier before numeric constant)... I'll search around on the forums to see if there's a solution to this problem. Otherwise, pe...

Hello, First, I'd like to say that I'm quite impressed with the work that's been done on Mana World. Actually, I want to use the code base when it matures a bit more for a project that I've had in mind for awhile now. To that end, I've been trying to compile TMW with no luck. I've tried VC7.1, VS9 a...
