SC1-2 > StarCraft - Wingy - 01-08-2007
This mansion is called StarCraft. It's going to have to have custom art, which I'm working on. Here's a screenshot of a room. Bty, the mansion's name is StarCraft because most of my art is related to the awesome masterpeice by Blizzard Entertainment... StarCraft :: Broodwar.
Here's the screenshot:
As you can see, the money is abit different, and Jack is stuck on a space platform! In the game StarCraft, you need Minerals, (Blue Crystal) and Vesvain Gas. (Gas Containers) Also, there's no life up there but Jack. There's just robots in the way!
I'll finish it... in awhile.

Stunning !
Looking forward. But take it easy, Wingy. No need to run.
Re: StarCraft - aquaMat - 01-08-2007
That looks very promising, Wingy !!

Beautiful, Wingy! Hurry!

Re: StarCraft - Wingy - 01-09-2007
Btw... Have anyone ever played StarCraft? There's a free demo at this address:
http://www.blizzard.com/starcraft/macscdemo.shtml
Most of the bad guys are not related to StarCraft,
but just robots. You need classic to play the demo. The full version you can get a installer to make is OS X. 8-)I've been drawing new bad guys and tile sets for like... 5 hours?
@Vern: You said you couldn't edit sprites. Well uh... how come I can?
Re: StarCraft - frost - 01-09-2007
Looks pretty good, Wingy.
How did you manage to make another background than the ones included in the game?
I've been trying this for quite some time, without any sucess so far

Wingy, as I said before.... of course it is possible to edit sprites (in the Midnight Mansion Sprites resource map), it's just not possible to do it in the resource file of your mansion (as it is with tiles).
I'm currenty doing custom graphic sprites myself...and it's a lot of fun !!

Its easy to get another background, Frost! You simply get the image you want, like I went to StarCraft's Wallpaper gallery and got that one. If the image is too small, it automaticly makes it a pattern. Once you have your image, you rename it, background8.jpg (Rename the extention) and put it into: /midnight mansion (folder)/game data/screens/
Then when you select it in the editor, you can select another backround! You can keep renaming differnent images. (e.g. background9.jpg, background10.jpg) Remember, the image has to be .jpg or .png.
Re: StarCraft - Freddy - 01-09-2007
Backgrounds and music have to be handled in a similar way. The mansion will need an accompanying read-me-first textfile with instructions for adding the backgrounds and/or the music at the right place(s). And you have to take care about RIGHTS. Don't use anything that result in bills send to Vern or whoever. Including yourself!
Re: StarCraft - Wingy - 01-09-2007
I'm still confused with the music thingy... I renamed my own music, put it in the right place, told the editor to play it in a sertain room, and I got a error window pop up when I played the mansion! :'( :-?
