[Super-tux-devel] Full color wingling animation!

[Christopher A. W. <cr...@li...>]

At last, it is completed!
Okay, okay, so it was completed a while ago... I just hadn't wrapped it
together as an animation.  All the coloring was done last week though. 
But yeah, it's nearly production-ready.
The "source" files for the graphics are:
http://lingocomic.com/gfx/goodies/supertux/wingling_anim3.x
http://lingocomic.com/gfx/goodies/supertux/wingling_anim3.xcf
and the animation itself is here:
http://lingocomic.com/gfx/goodies/supertux/wingling_anim3.gif

Whew!

Jump doesn't need to be exactly tile based, just something reasonably
close.

Speaking about input, it would be nice to have a bit more configurable
joystick support as well, ie. switching the joystick axis/buttons in
use at runtime, configure the keys freely, etc. I kind of really like
the way zsnes allow to configure keys, since it does exactly what one
needs and is very easy and more quickly to use.

Yep, I second that, texture is a bit confusing name.

I don't consider it much important, it would be nice to have, but
nobody will miss it if it isn't there. I can't even name much
commercial games that support on the fly switching of graphic drivers.


My personal wishlist:

- a more flexible gameloop() that gives better results and feedback on
  how the level ended, ie. how many coins got collected, what time was
  needed, what extras did tux have when finishing the level, what
  bonus blocks got triggered, etc. Main reason for this would be to
  allow the worldmap to present some percentage value on how much the
  level is completed, which in turn with secrets would give much
  greater replay values to the levels. This would also need a
  different way to handle savegames

- worldmap integration into the game, ie. replacing the current
  sequencial levels
  http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/tmp/supertux-worldmap4.png

- seperate main menu item to select level subsets, browse them by
  name, etc.

- bonus-rooms/sublevels

- more levels

- more testing, given the new enemies and the new levels the game
  could need a good amount of testing, there is still a lot of stuff
  thats buggy or unbalanced

- jump on an enemy while holding the jump button should result in a
  higher jump (mario-like)

- new tux sprite, missing images for dead enemies (ok, thats something
  I have to do ;)

At this point in time I wouldn't care at all about multiplayer modes,
since there are neither levels, gameplay-elements nor any 'what it
should be like' documents around. So it will just end up in
implementing something in the wild which will later be needed to
removed and reimplemented in a proper way. The code is already crufty
enough, time is better spend cleaning it further up instead of
implementing new unneeded hacks into it.

Its pointless to try to fix something that we not even know if it is a
bug, in coop-mode sharing the score might be a very valuable option.

[Super-tux-devel] To be done

[Ricardo C. <ri...@ae...>]

Hi,

 Before starting adding features like crazy, I've made a list of some things 
that I think that should be done, please comment:

- Jump
 The jump should be fixed, I mean just see what happens if you leave the Up 
key, until Tux reaches the maximum.
 Also, the jump should be based in tiles. Besides, when running, the jump 
should be bigger.

- Setup keys
 We need a dialog for keys setupping!

- OpenGL screen cleanup fix
 The function clearscreen() in screen.c, doesn't work properly in OpenGL mode. 
It uses the black color, independent from the given values.

- Access to variables
 I think that variables in classes should be kept private (as far as 
possible). And could be got or changed via functions, just as setSpeed(2) or 
getSpeed().

- Textures should be a class
 Textures is the perfect example of a good use for a class.
 The name should maybe be changed to Surface...

- Gameloop cleanups
 Gameloops should be turned into a class and stuff like scene.c and 
collisions.c should be integrated into it.

- Frontend change
 It should be possible to have a SDL <-> OpenGL frontend change in the fly. 
 Some time ago, I've made a hack that would just restart the app, when a 
'change frontend' option was selected. But it should be more powerfull than 
that, allowing the change to occur during the gameplay.


Just a few thoughts,
 Ricardo Cruz

[Super-tux-devel] 2 players mode [patch]

[Ricardo C. <ri...@ae...>]

Hey there,

 Here goes a first implementation of a 2 players mode.
 It is made to be able to support more than 2 players. However, enabling 
backscrolling breaks it and it has problems when one of the players is made 
to go into tiles.

 In the 2 player mode, the keys for 2nd player are W,A,S,D and Right control 
for power. The 1st player uses the Left control for power, in that mode.
 For those that cannot test the patch, here is a screenshot:
http://rpmcruz.planetaclix.pt/trash/supertux-2p.png


 Anyway, I would like to hear feedback about the gameplay. Currently, each 
player has its own lives,. Thus, ending the game, as soon as both players 
don't have any lives. Tobias agreed with this, what do you think?
 Do you think the screen should be splited out?

(currently the score is shared by both, but this will be fixed)

Around the turn of this century, a composer named Camille Saint-Saens wrote
a satirical zoological-fantasy called "Le Carnaval des Animaux."  Aside from
one movement of this piece, "The Swan", Saint-Saens didn't allow this work
to be published or even performed until a year had elapsed after his death.
(He died in 1921.)
	Most of us know the "Swan" movement rather well, with its smooth,
flowing cello melody against a calm background; but I've been having this
fantasy...
	What if he had written this piece with lyrics, as a song to be sung?
And, further, what if he had accompanied this song with a musical saw?  (This
instrument really does exist, often played by percussionists!)  Then the
piece would be better known as:
	SAINT-SAENS' SAW SONG "SWAN"!

Well, the 'Revenge in Redmond' idea is nice for us geeks (you are of
course a special type of geek on living on the evil side, who

    Hello... assuming someone wasn't duping your email address in

Greetings,

 I have just been informed about your little game whose goal is to travel 
along until Redmond is reached.
 I got surprised right way, since I have not ever seen anything unusual at 
Redmond, so I wonder what will Tux, the fat penguin, do at such place.

 Futhermore, you talk about Revenge in Redmond... I never heard about any 
penguin that was abused in such area. If so, report to the competent 
authorities.

[Super-tux-devel] SuperTux IRC Meeting

[Ingo R. <gr...@gm...>]

While SuperTux has made quite good progress in the GotM month (new
gfx, new enemies, leveleditor, etc.), its still not fully release
ready, another two weeks are expected before it can get it into a
releasable and fully playable state. To speed up the process a bit
another IRC meeting is planed at Saturday April 03 2004 on
irc.freenode.net, channel #supertux. Level creation will be an
important topic on this meeting, so if you are interested in creating
some levels feel very welcome to join. People for creating/polishing
the SuperTux webpage are needed as well, so if you are interested
please join the IRC meeting.

Date:    Saturday April 03 2004

Joystick support got broken once in a while in CVS and then fixed

I'll check and make sure that it will work before the next release.

[Super-tux-devel] Joystick stopped working

[John M. <joh...@ch...>]

Hello,
   In the version of SuperTux that I downloaded, compiled and installed
yesterday, my joystick doesn't work.  The joystick works fine right now
with other games, and it also worked fine with supertux v0.5.

   Does anyone have any ideas why this changed?  Can we add it back in? 
Did I somehow leave joystick support out of the compilation process?

Thanks in advance for your help.

/usr/local/bin/../share/supertux/images/tilesets/main.stgt

Aborted

I tried adding the files in data/images/tilesets/ to the Makefile and this 
fixes the error, but then when I go into tux there are no tiles in the level 
(and tux falls to his death upon starting the level).

Have fixed the tilemaps a bit and added a translation table between
old and new tile ids, so loading old levels works again. Converter for
the very old levels should be up and running too. Exporter for the
windstille-editor levels is up and running as well (except enemies).

Old levels now look of course a bit weird, since old and new tiles
don't always match 100% and especially since new tiles require some
transition tiles to look really good, however loading and playing them
works (except the goal), so it shouldn't be to hard to convert them
step by step completly.

[Super-tux-devel] New tiles in CVS

[Ingo R. <gr...@gm...>]

More flexible tile code is now in CVS (thanks to Tobias :), still
needs a bit of cleanup until the old stuff runs again, however here is
a first screenshot:

[Super-tux-devel] Webpage

[Ingo R. <gr...@gm...>]

Since the milestone1 release is coming nearer, it might be a good idea
to update the webpage a bit, especially the non-developer part of it,
which is basically non-existing at the moment. Anybody around who
would like to help with this? The webpage is available via CVS at:

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/super-tux co htdocs

Looks good, commited it with some minor modifications ("on" vs. #t
mainly, hooked up configfile.cpp into Makefile.am).
