Hello! Given it's been a little while since my last video came out I thought y'all were due a small update!
I'll come back around to adding a bit more the inventory mini-series I've started but I don't want to over do my focus on it due to the increasingly specialised nature of the content ...
2021-09-22 16:33:39 +0000 UTC View PostSome of you might recall when I was frustratingly vague about a decision to take on *even more work* at a time I had largely promised to not take on more work.
That project is finally out! I provided some program...

Sorry this one took forever! A whole lot of moving rectangles around in after effects. Enjoy!

This one is taking me a little while! There's quick and dirty ways I've written this before but given how clean our base inventory was I wanted to write something good/generic to match it with the mouse control.
I opted for a state machine controlled 'mouse' object that deals with all mous...
Nice to have an up to date video on the topic, and a shorter, cleaner one to boot!
This video will go public tomorrow, enjoy!

First two minutes are strictly info, the following seven are background, opinion, etc.
I could have made this video much longer, there's a lot of common complaints I could have addressed and more background info on the situation and how truly inevitable this kind of thing really was etc but...

Every week the end has felt so close and yet so far, every bit of work revealing yet a little bit more work that needed doing. But here we finally (finally) ((finally)) are.
It'll be a long episode that frankly, earlier I would have split into t...

Actually buying items from the shop! Most of this is handled by the dialogue + responses system we set up way back when with a new function for giving you the items themselves and deducting the money.

An annoying amount of just setting stuff up, but it needed doing! The more interesting code for this will be next episode.
Episode will be live in a few hours when the HD resolution finishes processing. Sorry there's no bigger Patron lead on this one! Some weeks are just better than others ...

Weird topic to cover 44 episodes in but here we are! Mostly a bit of a cleanup episode and episode 45 is going to be similar. There's a few things we've glossed over or put off that are very minor changes and fixes and content that needs creating to get us to where the original Demo was.

Hey everybody!
This episode has been 'done' for a little while but I had some rendering difficulties. I've picked up a new M2 harddrive that I hope will speed a few things up as I realize I've been relying on a lot of footage being held on my slower but bigger HDD for a while now.

In continued efforts by YoYo to render my old tutorial work entirely obsolete you can now automatically create nine slices in version 2.3.2 without any scripting whatsoever!
In version 2.3.2 (currently in beta, due for imminent release) you can define nine slices on a sprite by sprite basis...
