Hello everyone! It’s been 4 months since we last talked. Progress on CPEA is still going strong however, the Christmas themed game did not go as planned after I added some more scripts to it and messed it up.
Details, (if you do not want to read this part, skip to the part labelled “Details are over”)
Using some scripts I tried to a) resize the fullscreen game window, and b) resize and customise the game’s text.
Both of these were going rather well when I encountered a problem - the loading times for the game to start up were significantly longer since it had to load 6 - 7 scripts AND resize the window. It was still doing rather great though until the next problem occurred. The script I was using for resizing interfered with a lighting script and could not produce the light inside the bigger window. Due to the size of the window, the maps keep repeating themselves towards the bottom and the top.
(Details are over)
I’d like to get the game out ASAP but I think a much better option is working on it in small chunks whilst working on CPEA to really have something to show off next Halloween / Christmas time!
I am sorry if all this waiting around frustrates any of you, I understand, however, I am not quite out of school yet and unfortunately, assignments and exams are both frequent and constant.
I hope you all still follow the news on CPEA nowadays even if I have not spoken for 4 months.
See you all! Hope you had a lovely Christmas and New Year!
