[Spideysly]

Hey I have a Game maker but i need to make a shooter but i want a free one and no trials idk if its like game maker i want to make a game like doom or higher just somthing good idk what it is just help!!!

[doomlord]

idiot, dont post here if you have game maker and you seem way to inexperienced for flash so dont ever post here again.
also if you got that program still don't post here and don't use it sorry to sound harsh but you SUCK at programming just stick to gaming or go read some tutorials before posting

Dude im asking for a diffrent thing not flash i want a free game maker for shooters not the gamemaker from GameMaker.nl

Gamemaker. Ugh. If you want to start in some sort of shooter, or any game in that matter, you CAN start with Gamemaker, but don't expect anything like a shooter. If you want to move up a small step, you can go to Flash (www.adobe.com) and make a basic game. Learn ActionScripting, and eventually you'll get around to making a game in Flash. If you are serious with making a game, (and have a lot of time on your hands.) expect to have a stack of books on your desk, with a half-advanced image editing program, a bunch of scripts on your desktop, and your browser open. If you plan on actually doing something with the game, set up a team and add a few thick books, browser windows, 3DS Max/Maya 9, mental ray, and an emptier wallet. Continue, and you'll rent a building, and have a large team.

But I expect you to stop learning after option #2, Flash.

still wrong forums and by how you've been posting lately i see you aren't and probably never will be smart enough for this, have you ever coded before because there's no game-making-shooters out there that require 0 coding only really rpg's but if your in flash game development section learn some actionscript

You can shut up right now.
They said the same thing to me.

[doomlord]

yeah true and i will just he needs to learn some coding because only way he's getting a good game maker is by paying for it or learning some coding
all the rest just suck a bit

[Matt]

I started out sucky too.
It just takes a lot of work and others are more determined/have more time/think more logically ect to continue it.

[doomlord]

true i'm learning coding bit-by-bit but the rest is too complicated and until i take a class at uni i'm going nowhere because 1. the tuts are too complicated and 2. see 1.
also matt probably took you like a year-2 its taken me like 3years and im only half as good as you
edit: well i learnt half my flash from your tuts and the other half checking google

[Matt]

Well me just looking at the topics I've made here on xgen. Going from oldest to newest I can see how ****ing determined I was. I had to prove to so many people.

[doomlord]

yeah
off topic:
not many good tuts out there you should do some more e.g.
how to have say if this hitTest that this grows bit larger, well you'd get some more fans if you did some more tuts

[Matt]

Tut's are time consuming.
I'd rather be in flash coding.
As for that though it's easy.
have your hittest.
if(MC1.hitTest(MC2)){
_root.MC2._xscale+=10
_root.MC2._yscale+=10
}

edit: I used that in growth homicide.

[doomlord]

yeah i'm probably gonna start writing some tuts for people from what i've learned because hard to find good ones for beginners like me out there and i think mine will have mostly what they want
