A SCAR Game!
Deadline: 7th October 2007 12.00 Midnight GMT

Alright, you asked for it! Creating a game in SCAR! I've been speaking to some of the developers and we have decided to host the first ever Scar Game Making Competition here on the SRL forums. This is going to be a great competition to watch grow and im sure great work will be done here, however this isn't actually as hard as it sounds, as you'll find out in a sec…

As always, I will be the judge of the competition. However, also joining me this competition will be Solemn Wishes

Anyone is welcome to join the competition, the rules are simple:

Rules

• You must work on your own - no development teams
• However much you have completed must be handed in by the time limit. Even if you don't complete the script fully, you still have a (small) chance of winning :)
• You must make all of your own custom functions. You cannot take them from any other script even if you have permission. This means that the only procedures / functions you may use are the ones already in the SRL include, or ones that you make yourself
• Once you have submitted a script, you cannot submit another one / edit your current one, so make sure you check it over thoroughly before submitting your entry

I may add / change the rules at any time, and i will warn you when i do. They won't be big changes though

Extra Rules!

Since this is not the usual RS script we are creating, I'll just lay down a few extra things for ya…

• All images must be loaded from a folder, no large bitmaps to be present in your script
• Your code must be strictly unseen by any other members participating in the competition until the deadline. However, you may let other members of the public who are not participating in the competition test out your script (The code must be sent privately). You MUST list all of the members you allow to test your game at the top of your script. Each person may only help test one script!
• You MAY create a remake of a popular existing game, for example Pong or table tennis etc etc.
• No Plugins are allowed

This is defiantly going to be the most challenging scripting competition to date!
Anyone who tries to cheat will be automatically eliminated! (I.E. copying existing / other members code) I will be the judge of whether you cheat or not

Script will be judged on:

• Technique
• Individuality
• Follow all SRL rules: i.e break out of potential infinite loops etc.
• Creativity
• Content
• Efficiency
• Presentation
• Added Extras… (?)
• Addictiveness!

Good Scripts will contain the following:

• Imaginative storylines
• Specified game dynamics
• Planned action / purpose
• Create a fun and addictive working script :)

Prize
Big Big prizes this time :D
Besides gaining respect and reputation from the community, there will also be a 1 Month Membership Pin up for grabs, courtesy of WT-Fakawi. On top of that, 3 Million GP will be given to the winner.

Submitting your entry
Once you have finished your script, email or PM it to me so that others won't see your finished product until the end of the competition, and they can't steal your ideas! All scripts will then be posted up after the competition has ended.

Why should I enter?
Hopefully this competition will not only get you motivated to script but help you to develop a larger understanding of scar itself and a greater appreciation for the de-preciated functions that you may have never seen before entering the competition. This script will make you use techniques you may have never tried before, such as using the Canvas and Debug window as well as all of the Fast drawing functions… check out the SCAR manual for more info…

However, if you feel you cannot get to gribs with Canvases and the Debug Window, you could always try creating a text based game.

As a bonus
Besides both me and Solemn Wishes reviewing all entries and commenting on each script, all 'WORKING' entries will be placed into a scar 'GAME PACK' and hopefully distributed across the community to show off all your work.

Where do I Start?!
Check out the rar file attached to this post below… It is a game called Tanks, created by Solemn Wishes. Its not exactly the best script around, but it shows you how easy it actually is to create a game in SCAR. We've given you 1 month to get to grips with this, and create a good game, that should be long enough :D

hmmmm a game hey..this is gonna be interesting, no idea on how to do this, so this should be fun :p

From: Starblaster100

Good luck to everyone; Let the "Games" begin!
See what i did there :p

Funny
edit, ok got a question: when we let other people test, are they allowed to give us feedback or ideas? for example, "that ball doesnt look good there" or "it lags too much".

object orientated scar scripting.

I LIKE IT
although i wont participate in this competition.
if i did, i would be working on the script constantly and forget to eat/sleep/auto

btw, does that game work for you guys? i get this:

Successfully compiled
LoadChars failed - folder "C:\Program Files\SCAR 3.11\CharsChat2\" does not exist
x : 250y : 338
[Runtime Error] : Exception: Access violation at address 006FC968 in module 'scar.exe'. Read of address 00000000 in line 26 in script E:\!SCAR\My Scripts\SCAR Game\Tanks\tanks.scar

Dude, you have 1 month to complete it! Thats more than enough time to create the game and remember to eat / sleep / auto ;)

I hope you at least think about it, it would be great to have loads and loads of games available to show what SCAR can really do

By bad, I uploaded a bad version… download the new version above :D

starblaster: i might start closer to october, but ill have to think about it
can we make scripts outside the range of scar? i.e. you will need a pascal compiler to run them? that would make it alot easier to do what i plan(if i end up doing it)

Nope sorry, it has to be in SCAR

Wow. I bet either SKy or Yakman will win this, perhaps even Nielsie.

Thats the general idea of testing ;)

From: SantaClause

Why don't you give it a go and see if you can win?

Slightly modified one of the extra rules:
Each person may only help test one script!

woo!!im trying :)

would making more than 1 game increase ur chances? (like u grade both and whichever is higher?)

Sky will win :p

If we "test" (play) a game, can we give suggestions? Like, you need a freebitmap here, or you should put this here.

I'm IN :D

From: dan cardin

I will only accept 1 game, and that will be the first one i see from you.

Bullzeye, you can give game suggestions, not scripting suggestions ;)

YES:
You need another man there, that man is moving too fast

NO:
You missed a FreeBitmap here, there is a Memory Leak there

Ruroken - Good!

I will give it a shot… looks fun =)

Well, Ill try, it'll be fun! Only scar game I've created is a ReadLn based one xD

Ah well, I won't join this one..
Have fun guys. :)

How would this use SRL?

It probably wouldn't :P

But you still need SRL rules i.e breaking out of potential infinite loops etc.

Hmm, sounds intresting. Games like PONG aren't that special, are they? ^^. Hmm, can i remake a stupid flash game? Or does it need to be a original idea?
Oh and i think you got to many time lol:p.

P.S. Finally no RS, Im IN!

Wow. I bet either SKy or Yakman will win this, perhaps even Nielsie.

What about meh? Hehe… 3million gp looks awfully nice.

From: Starblaster100

• You MAY create a remake of a popular existing game, for example Pong or table tennis etc etc.

You can remake a flash game if you want, but it must be created in SCAR.

And, I have to many time? Not sure what you mean by that.

RS Monkey, enter and prove them wrong ;)

I mean, you gave US to many time ^^, you wasn't meant to indicate a person lol. Yeah, i know SCAR, oh is there a limit to bitmaps and\or size?

Oh, I changed my mind, I wont join.

If someone has no idea for a game, mine was *SPOILER*: bombs dropping from skys, and you have 3 scar trucks in the earth, there is a timer that tells how many ms until bomb hits earth, and before that, you have to aim with a scar truck (hover mouse on) and then a green crosshair moves with your mouse on the bomb, then press SPACE to shoot the bomb. Ofcourse the bomb is moving while you shoot, so ,you have also to notice how many milliseconds it takes for a bomb to come down from the top, and then think how far away you have to click from the bomb, ofcourse noting the speed your scar missiles go.

That was a little too complicated for me, maybe Yak or someone wants to make xD

EDIT: Holy smokes, leechers have gotten into SRL Juniours, they are running my script! yay, broke 1 days ;)

From: mastaraymond
I mean, you gave US to many time ^^, you wasn't meant to indicate a person lol. Yeah, i know SCAR, oh is there a limit to bitmaps and\or size?

I'm still confused at what you are trying to say to me…

No there are no limits in this competition. Bitmaps can be the size of the moon for all i care, just make sure i am able to load them into my memory :)

Lol, that saves me ALOT of canvas drawing ^^.

i would love to join man now its somthing i really cant sb100 i hate you:)j/k

And why can't you join?

Don't you dare answer "because I think it's too hard"

And herm dont ask help from me in these things, I suck in this area.

Uh, except for maybe "CopyCanvas(Picture, FormImage.Canvas…" :D

Does it have to use a canvas? And if it does use a canvas does it give you better chance to win? Im thinking of making poker game ;)

I dont even know were to start to make a game so i wont enter this one

I will pay you a rep if you make a scar pokemon game!

pokemon game totally deserves a memb pin + 3m

Do it!

EDIT: roflmao, market competiting or whats it called, SKy or Niels is coming and makes a… surprise surprise, DIGIMON! xD

No it doesn't have to use the canvas, it was just an idea.

rudeboialex, check out the attached game on the first page, and maybe it will give you ideas on where to start.

And Pokemon game = auto win.
jk jk :p but it would be damn cool to see

does that mean we dont need to be that 1s that make the pictures?

like a friend can help with pics?

With a debug image? not a form?

Wow, I really want to enter this. I've got 6 week tests (over 12 chapters each) coming up next week so I'll see if I can pull out a script in the last half.

If I don't enter can I help judge? I know my canvases and forms well enough, I think.

– It may be a coincidence, yesterday I made a script to make me a signiture :p

yep and that true i really never made a good form so how to make a game!!

Hmm, you have to ask that from Star dan.

oh i may enter ive never took a shot at a game before, have seen them in the scar files but never actually made one, may take a look at a few and see if im up to it or not

I'm in.

Would one get points taken off if they had two (maybe three?) scar scripts?

Or a plugin?

Game engines need to do a lot of image processing, and they have to do it quickly…an area where SCAR is 'less-than-proficient'

FastDraw.. ^^. Im intrested about plugin to… Its not SCAR and you can put in alot of delphi stuff, but it would be a lot easier :p.

Meh.

*almost puts in some stuff, but thinks again and decides to keep to self*

Interesting. I'm in and I'll certainly make a scar game.

You can get pictures from anywhere, however you have to make the script yourself.

If you feel you can make a game in a form, go for it. I am not limiting you to debug / canvases, i just naturally thought that would be the easiest thing to use

2 - 3 script… 1 game? Thats allowed.

Learn kiddo ;) Everyone starts somewhere… how did you start to learn SCAR?

Ah, so we're allowed to use plugins?
* fires up Delphi and adds some more threads to SCAR allowing BG music to be played without freezing the game itself *

holy what a challenge! Great idee! but i'm not good at forms… so i'll not join :(
but i would love to see the results ;)


btw, next comp. a runescape script plox :)

sb100 thinks ''not many will servive only the strongest people will win the weak will die mewhahahahhaha '''*taking a cup of thea*;)

i dont think plugin's should be allowed :(

Hmm i kinda agree.

OK, new extra rule, sorry everyone :p

No Plugins are allowed

made a delphi stuff

mainloop
begin
plugin;
end;

;)

I'm really bad with canvases and forms..meh..there goes my chance.

This is your chance to learn dude! Thats what the SC is all about

From: Starblaster100

*dies*

I guess two or three scar scripts it is :p

Now tell me…are you the only judge? If you are, what are your testing pc's specs…if not, can I set system requirements?

I had an idea that I really like, but it's gonna sap a lot of cpu cycles.

LMAO Awesome. Anyways, i was just thinking about making a scar game lol. I know exactly what to make. anyways i know who is the one to beat **cough SKy Scripter cough**

Forget everything else I'm doing… I plan on doing this.

I thought object oriented scar scripting wasn't supported.

No api calls neither pl0x.

Oi everyone stop saying sky scripter. He is a nub :p Hahah to tell you the truth. I never really bothered about canvas's. Reason to learn FTW ! :p

I actually think this is a chance for a member or even a junior member to own the devs that enter :p trust me. Its not often that devs bother making scar games.

almost as good as addictinggames.com

No points off for my crappy graphics job? Meaning, my MS Paint using the air brush and fill button graphics.

If school lets up soon (which I hope it does) I'm definitely in! I won't win, but I'll get to learn canvasses! :p

I'll join :). I have very limited time to work on it =\, but if I have to, I'll just turn in the bitmaps only! :p

From: The_Rs_Monkey
No api calls neither pl0x.

Correct, no API Calls either.

Solemn Wishes and I are the judges.

My computer specs:

10 mb of ram
2gb of hard disk space.

Make sure i can run the script otherwise you fail :p

Star, I can't join because I have too much school work to do. I also have NO idea where to start.

As for Rs_Monkey, yes he's definitely a contender in this one, I believe he can beat SKy. It's just that, last time he started something in SCAR, he didn't end up finishing it because he got bored :p

Thats a shame to hear dude, but remember you have a month to do it in so maybe later on in the month you could try starting something.

If not, no worries! School always comes first

Lol, empty scar takes at least 12mb RAM ;)

I hope you know i was joking lol… 2 gb of space on a computer would suck. (as would 10 mb of ram :p )

10 mb of ram
2gb of hard disk space.

Dude I feel sorry for making you test HelloFish xD

EDIT: oh, it was a joke -.-

Rofl, i was gonna make a pokemon type game.
Has anyone got small (32x32 or less) bitmaps of grass, dirt, path, rocks and trees?

Gah, a game ? Kinda low chances to win this one :( I bet mastaraymond, yakman, SKy Scripter or nielsie will win this one :S.. I doubt I'll take part to this one.

omg… Just because they've made on before, doesn't mean they are going to win!

Take part and maybe you will learn something!

just because you dont have a good chance of winning, doesnt mean that you shouldnt enter…look at the other script comp, i didnt think i would have a chance at winning but i entered, and hey i won it. its not about winning anyway, its about learning

Dudes, I never made a form (well once, thx Form Tut by SB! :p) howam I suppose to make a SCAR game??!?!:confused:
I never! worked with canvaces :(

hmmmmm…..how about LEARNING? :p i have never touched forms, canvases, or debug boxes before this either

Aww if this was "Make a game in FLASH' i would join. But not this time :(

From: The Claw
hmmmmm…..how about LEARNING? :p

I tried learning that stuff once. Just confused the shit out of me.. :p Might try again now though.

Right im definately joining now, am i allowed to shotgun an idea? :D

Alright. I've got my game idea. I'll give a shot. Thanks Star. :)

Good luck everyone.

This will be a excellent way for me to learn :)
How to script in SCAR…

Yea…
I got lots of time :)

I say mastaraymond wins ;)

but your two scripts k-a ( you know what i mean ;) ).

Hmmm I had an idea for a 3d game, but is that possible?
Without making a differnt bitmap for each angle?

Also, I wanna stick ride of the valkries in
Will you download a 400 mb file?

Possible YES. Feasible NO. Scar is far to slow to be able to render anything. Infact if you searched hard enough you would see people posting scripts about making spheres etc. But it is just far to slow to be able to really do it.

Woot I changed my mind thanks to those sprites :stirthepot:

Woot I changed my mind thanks to those sprites :stirthepot:

ok what are sprites, I just don't get it :s

Sprites are just the drawings/avatars of various characters, like pokemon, drazonballz, naruto, final fantasy characters, etc. That link was just a link to a bunch of pictures of people that you could use for bitmaps :D

I think i'll submit a script for this one - doubt I"ll win though, but i'll try.

My game has a roflmao of the year idea:stirthepot:

I've never really used canvases before - I tried them a few weeks ago, but I never got the hang of them.

Anyways, for anybody who cares, my game is like 50% done (it's…. bad). I'd be surprised if I got higher than last place :p

You're going quite well if you've got a 50% done game, especially if it's partially working. The quicker you can get your game working, the more time you'll have to tweak it.

kk, anyoneknow how to remove the mouse?

By mouse do you mean the cursor? If so, do something like

Form1.cursor:= crNone;

Yea, but can I use that on a debug image?

If it's on your form :)

Well, it sort of fails and it's pretty basic, so I'm starting over. I guess you could call that a 'tester' game. First time I've used canvases…

Just a hint about what it pretty much was, it was like that tanks game, but different. The next one I do should be much better.

Hey it's allowed for people not from this forums to test my game right?
I.E.
My sister?

Yea if she wants, as long as you list her in the credits.

What if his sister doesn't visit the forums…?

Thats OK, as long as i know how many people have tested your script, and who has tested your script.

Hey I changed my mind, I wont take part because I wanna test JuKkas script.

Anyways my script idea was: yes, its incredible:

You have opportunity to choose from are you WT-Fakawi or Boreas.

Both appear as pokemons on the debug window.

Boreas is the blue alligator thingie and Fawki is the red fire squirrle thingie, both from generation 2 or what ever it is.

Both have unique attacks for example Boreas has ability to "Prune Noobs" and Fawki "Instant Memberize Old Pal".

If I wasnt too lazy I would win the competition.

Anyways, im off.

mwwwwahaha! i finnished my script :P its soooo pwnage!

im 70% sure i wont win its such a simple game i made.

Not necassarily, look :

The 7 Sacred Checkpoints

All SRL Members on their pilgrimage must pass the same 7 sacred checkpoints. Below is a quick summary of what you have to consider to pass them successfully


Technique (/100)

This relates to what type of loops you have used where, how you found that certain object on the floor, how you detected that door, how you made sure your script was fail safe. It also refers to issues such as whether you should have used DTMs / DDTMs / bitmaps there or not, how you have withdrawn that item from the bank, and if you could have done this any better

Individuality (/100)

This refers to whether your scripting style is your own or not. The more individual your script is, the better it is for you, because this means you really understand what all of the different procedures / functions / types / methods should be used for. it means you are relying less on other people, and are developing your own style.

Use of SRL (/100)

This relates to how well you have used the SRL include. Are you creating custom functions that are already in SRL, or are you using the existing ones in the include. Also, are you using them correctly? There is no point in creating something which is already in the include. Basically this shows how well you have looked through the include before resorting to making it yourself, and it shows your understanding of the include as well.

Efficiency (/100)

This is the thing I am most strict about. The more efficient the script is, the better it is. Why constantly write out procedures when you can use a simple repeat instead? Are you using "end else" when needed? Do you have duplicate functions? Are you freeing DTMs / bitmaps after finishing with them? The more efficient your script is, the better it will run, and the easier errors will be to fix when they arise.

Presentation (/100)

Presentation of a script is always important! And this should be easy marks. There are only 4 categories. Do you have a respectable title page? A decent progress report? Good scripting standards? Commented procedures and functions? (which is the one everyone always forgets!)

Added Extras (/100)

What extra features did you include in your script? The more that are in there, the better it is. Be careful though, because including extra features which don't work / aren't efficient could get you marked down in other categories!

Script Run (/100)

How did the script run when we tested it? Did it do what it was asked for? Any problems? As simple as that.

In this competition Effectiveness = Addictiviness (?) and Usage of SRL is the Rules of SRL - break out of potential endless loops etc.

Addictiveness = 100
Use of SRL = 0

Hopefully ;)

Why use of SRL 0?

Though I dont think in a script like this there will be any "pontential endless loops"

my script only uses For To Do loops :(

Yes, thats why you get 100% SRL Rules thing!

Its not about what chances you have to fail, but where you dont fail.

I've finished my game, it's pretty fun lol. I'll have pyro test it for me and I'll apply with it.

It's not a winner but a good try xD.

Who wants to test meh script?

I've got to work on my game :) Got great ideas with custom levels and everything

Gonna take a while to make… But I got 2 weeks :)

I just hope I have enough time, Lol :p

This is gonna be fun. Running into a few problems, but I think it's gonna turn out OK :)

I did my game in 30 minutes, tweaked it for another hour and it's perfect now :-)

Well your an "experienced" coder
This is my first script :)

Well i cant say it gets exciting after a while because.. Its such a simple game.

I'm thinking about Second and Third place prizes for this one… not sure yet though

I'm thinking about Second and Third place prizes for this one… not sure yet though

Thats good! it doesent need to be anything big, Maybe a cup?

Wow canvases are more complicated than I thought haha. I haven't even started yet!

is there any tuts on how to make games? i looked at tanks and istill dont get any of it

Its pretty simple… in a couple of words…

You draw a bitmap on a set canvas… and you move this bitmap according to theplayers actions i.e

if ((IsArrowDown(1)) then
begin
  YourBitmap.X = YourBitmap.x+5;
end;

This will move the Bitmap Left on the press of Left ( I think :D)

It's all about manipulating bitmaps ( and normally there is alot more going on behind the scenes then the palyer sees :D)

You use form events and bitmap drawing functions to make most of the game.

For Form events, see how to do something when you click a button, and Scar -> Tools -> Event Handler List… to learn how to add a MouseMove event, and other ones.. Also timers are a good thing to know.

For canvases and drawing, see some tutorials, and see fastdrawtest test file in SCAR.

Let's make deadline shorter plz? I wanna see how my script ranks :D

Noooo :D ive barely started…

Sorry c0de, once i set deadlines, i don't change them :p

Star FTW :D

well ive got my really noobish game but hey its for a begginer i doubt ill win but worth a try.


so far i have all the bitmaps i need drawn in paint myself its lame but once i learn i will use better pics ect….. :p

but all i can do is load my bitmaps and make a screen pop up i cant place my bitmaps on it and i think im beggining to understand moving it

FastDrawTransparent - Thtas waht you want basically take apart the tank script thats what i did :D

I think I'll hand out my script 1 day before the deadline then.

why?

You never know when you can get a good idea :D

OOP in scar will be heaps of fun. :D

lol, if only I knew how and saw this thread earlier, half my time is gone now! Next time …(Iv said "next time" all three times, lol). No time anyways, i skipped a grade of math, so yeah, lots of stress and hw :(


P.s. If we could make the games in C++, then maybe..*franticly looks for C++ graphics tut*…na never mind lol

=\ I just lost my game due a computer crash.. :(
I already had 600 lines of nice coding.. But everything is just unreadable now.

I think i actually MIGHT enter this one.. I have a good idea about this. Time to learn about canvases!! yay!

It was so smart, they never will find about that when you l33t h4x infected a MSN message in the convo with nielsie which ate his System32 and sent his whole scar folder all credited to you autom OOPSIE!

Im so sorry, wasnt I supposed to tell that?

Sorry about that - you've still got about two weeks until the deadline, though.

I think your crash made my chances of winning rise 5% (not that they were high in the first place…)

btw, i'm like 50% done with my game - just got the outlineish stuff done (graphics, basic walking stuff, etc). Time to finish it up.

i have an elaborate plan that ive had but been too lazy to actually start :(

Ya anyone can help, i would just need some comments from you telling me what you think of the game in relation to the 7 points.

PM / Email me when the deadline is up and i'll PM you the scripts.

Thanks

P.S. Even though I'm not allowed to enter, I've still made a game (about 60% and i think its GREAT). If anyone makes a better game than me, i'll give them an added bonus of some sorts :p

I've got some of my game working

Too lazy to do anymore :)

Either that or I'm procrastinating

Hmm, I might make a game just for fun though I cant officially take part to the competition with it :)

By the way, if someone is good with canvas, all good etc, but dont have any idea, make a game like this:

"ScuneRape", you would be playing runescape same time while seeing hilarious things in the debug image, the debug image would be fake version of the rs you are playing.

I had some time today again and redid half of my old script :) So I'm almost back in the race! :)

hiya guys, nice to see this is going well so far. Cant wait to see and judge your final outcomes. Would love to see some WIP screenshots when they are ready. Bit anxiouse :D

Keep up the good work!

well thats the whole point. I tried.

Like I said, this will make a pretty good script for me :)
I got custom levels with the path loaded from the bitmap
that took me a while

I hope I finish in time. Multiple enemies respawning + 2 player (I hope) = difficult.

I just sent mine to Starblaster. I doubt I would have touched it in the next few weeks.

I script extremely slowly. I'll spend like 10 minutes just staring at it, and then change a variable.

This is also the first time I've used canvases (still getting used to changing coordinates while the screen refreshes), but I guess it's the first time for a lot of people. I don't expect to win, or come close, but I should get some good feedback.

I'll be around, it just may take a bit longer to make than usual

I'm gonna be running tight (hopefully I'll finish saturday, get minor fixes done on sunday and enter). I've got the core done (for both one player and two players), but it's pretty basic and I've still gotta add more extras.

I wont finish it because i'm going away for a few days, but I will send it in anyway.

danrox, about the complicated problem, if you made a proper framework for the game its easier to add things :p

Woohoo, just saw deadline is October 7th - I thought it was October 1st.

I'll definitely finish then.

May the best win! :)

you said we have one month to get this done? i know its almost due but is it always that long?

no, changes depending on how hard the script is to make

kool. do you know what the next competition is gonna be about, cause if its just plain scripting, then im gunna work real hard. im still a noob scripter but my script is doing quite well, even if it is just another powerminer.

aww i really really suck at making games :(

4 More days till the end of the competition!! :O

z0mg i know i wont win, And i know i wont get last :P ( i hope )

ok this will be interesting

May the worst win and the best loose!!

My script is still on my other pc =\ Which isn't working at the moment.

Linux live CD + copy to flash drive?

I'll give 50k whoever pulls their script out! :D

Lol.

pulls their script out of the competition? i will :)

now wheres my 50k…im completely serious

Lol… :P

Maybe i should just make at the last min XD

Star… why did you change the date at the last second?

Star, could you please explain this:
In competition two the deadline was sunday 26th August 2007 12.00 Midnight GMT.
We could still work on our scripts at sunday.
Now the deadline is sunday 7th October 2007 12.00 Midnight GMT, and we can't work on it at sunday.
Why?

Because October 7th 12:00 midnight is the beginning of October 7th, so you really have 24 hours less then what most of you guys (and me) thought.

[OFFTOPIC] And the clock ticks.. and SKy Scripter started making his now :)[/OFFTOPIC]

I just HAD to say that^^:p

-Tsn.

11:55 gmt+1

Eastern Time = 6:34 (GMT - 5?)

Anyways, I had to rush to finish mine (Yes, I was working on it this morning and hurried to rush it in. I barely tested it, lol. Baseball game at 3:45 (left at 3), PMed it to star at 2:58 then left.

Anyways, GOGOGO SKY.

*waits 2 months for them to be graded*

6 more minutes left. woot!

Times up :)

Yes, competition is now over, I can show my (ok-ish, laggy) entry: http://uppit.com/d/IWI3U

Mine is terrible compared to everybody elses. Just saw The_RS_Monkey's - mines like a 2/10 compared to his (he is a dev though… but his kicks ass). Like the only thing I use is… FastDrawTransparent, and thats it. I pretty much read Yakman's tutorial on canvases and figured 'what the hell, I'll go for it'.

WOW! Nice The_Rs_Monkey. I only saw a couple of bugs: When i quit it it came up with some access violations and although the towers (the first one) says it costs 75 or whatever to upgrade, it only costs 15. Nice game though!

For anyone thats interested, here is my crappy unfinished game :P

Wow, monkey your game definitely owns my non-finished, non-music game ^^, great job!

=0 It couldnt load the bitmaps for me until i added 'scriptPath + ' - space := LoadBitmap(scriptPath + 'images/space.bmp');
But otherwise it looks really nice! Like those xbox360 minigames you get in kellogs packets, except much cooler and much better graphics

Can everyone who entered do me a favor and post your script name and who made it, because most of you didn't put your names ANYWHERE in the scripts, like the little Einsteins you are…

Gonna take a while to do all of these scripts, I'm busy and there are a lot of entries. Thanks

2 Players, fire fireballs at each other and jump on each other. Sometimes it will record two kills instead of one… Less stable.

Ok, I'll post mine (with added directions, because I had about 1 minute to write them before I had to leave for a baseball game an hour be4 deadline). Just a sec… There it is.

It can be a little glitchy, like the dead mario and dead turtle images sometimes won't come up… but you get the idea. I had to fix many small bugs in about 2 minutes before turning it in.

My game isn't very good… I'll just say it's 'unique'.

BTW, if you get an error for a bitmap 'not found', just start up a new SCAR.exe with no tabs. It should work then.

Hey Star, about how many people have entered? JW… And if anybody tries my script, post a comment or something (even just 'bad game' is fine).

Nah, you have 16 chars to use in your name, and it'll be trimmed. Seems like I have to tweak highscores a lil' bit more, seems like it's been giving false positives.

Nice game Kik…but I can't exactly go off the game screen into another area?

You aren't supposed to. That's why it's so basic - just one map. I'm expecting last/second to last place :D

It's not really even mario, 1 player is pointless, 2 player is a little less pointless.

Haha…Ok…it still looks ownage :)

im so gonna get the last place :P my game is soo simple :P

Jukka, saw mine? Simpler than yours…

so its not finished… oh well… judge fair star so take your time.

Take your time but hurry! :)

Nah, just kidding, I was wondering tho if we could get _rough_ estimation when will the scores arrive :o

duhh… duhhh.. Im SOOO sure that im in the last place ;)

can we make porn hmes :P

Star's probably thinking, *oh shit, I should probably get around to grading those*

i bet one of the games that was submitted is really good n now star just can't stop playing it to grade everything else

Haha, true xD

Soon in news "…also known as StarBlaster100 was found today morning passed out and shaking next to his computer. Test results show that he played a game that was supernatural-addictive. " :p

I wonder does some SRL Member get to Top 2 :rolleyes:

Star please get back ^^, i want my game to be graded :p. I give it another few weeks, then Im going to release it x').

You can release it, it wont affect your grading, it was supposed to be private until the deadline, after that you can do whatever you want with it :-)

I wonder where all that GP I donated to the SC prizes fund has gone off to. . . ;)

Hahaha! Good one! :P Star ran away with our geepeez!!! :O

Lol actually a pretty good plan … I might try when i retire!

:p Rofl, JuKka, yeah, after someone gives you the competition prize bank account xD

Something is cooking in c0de's lab…

c0de you've had that for too long, your cookies are on fire!

I'm not genius at Scar, so ican't enter in hopes at winning.

However, that game sucked. no offence

When clicking it automatically creates the new 'fire' at the end of my tank however, it doens't release untill my mouse has been released then automaticallyl restarts at the point of my tank, so i can't even spam click

The tank movement is very jagged, not a very good example of what scar can do, i would have probs used the already made ping pong version on the forums.

So is star comming or has he ran of with some money in tow?

Nah, he hasn't ran anywhere (I think), but there are lot of scripts that needs to be graded which takes time, plus he propably has like two hours or less per day to spend time here =/

Yea i guess. Maybe star is busy with real life?

so who won? where is that posted at?

The compeition was. . . Postponed. . . -ish. . .

lol 16 pages of what? then…

It is postponed because Starblaster is taking an extended vacation. If he comes back sometime he may finish this, though.

My game isn't very good… I'll just say it's 'unique'.

BTW, if you get an error for a bitmap 'not found', just start up a new SCAR.exe with no tabs. It should work then.

Hey Star, about how many people have entered? JW… And if anybody tries my script, post a comment or something (even just 'bad game' is fine).

if u click on the goto link thing next to their name u can go to the post and download ;)

Mine is in the Other Scripts forum, I'll get a link if you want it.

Freddies busy keeping Scar updating. The backbone of SRL

freddys not the 1 who rates/judges them

starblaster does and wizzup? says he will too when hes not busy :P

I heard that wizzup? Has made plans on grading the games!!

I'll just assume that I won until a decision is made.

Hehe. ;)
I've taken a few looks at all the games.
Some didn't even work. They forgot to put ScriptPath in.
Bitmap := LoadBitmap(ScriptPath + 'mybmpname.bmp');
Instead they did
Bitmap := LoadBitmap('mybmpname.bmp');

I want to give some good input on the games, thats why it is taking some time.

~ Wizzup?

I don't think ScriptPath matters when the file is placed in the same folder, does it?

From: Markus
I don't think ScriptPath matters when the file is placed in the same folder, does it?

The code without ScriptPath did not work for me, told me I did not have the bitmaps, but when I added ScriptPath it worked.

So your telling me these people made the game without even runing once?! I would never do that because thats just asking for it to suck.

i'm guessing it worked for them. because it would be very hard to make a game withour testing at all. unless you added in the pictures last, but even then i think they would check it.

I think it worked in some older scar versions, but Freddy fixed it in later scar versions.
I can remember me running Icefire's old aircrafter, and it had a loadbitmap without ScriptPath in the form code, and it could load the picture.

so, uh, this is quite a bit way past the end date, but are you still excepting entries?

no, the competition ended a long time ago, its just the results we're waiting for

ah, ok, man, this is waaaaay over due lol!

From: Dan Cardin

wizzup? decision :P
———————
well since this thread last posted on feb 26 wanted to give a bump. well since starblaster is back and wizzup? has decided to judge. when will the winner be announced?

Since Starblaster has returned, the grading will probably be finished by Starblaster.

The big question is: when will he finish it?

The answer is: When he has time :)

so 7 months isnt enough time? lol

Its not 7 months, only 5 and 26 days :p

You should to just start a new one while you grade the others.

To me it is pretty clear who is the winner, I just did not find the time to grade all the scripts so extensively, like Starblaster did…

Tell me Wiz, is it Ray? =D

-Tsn.

Nah its me of course i always lose

Oi ray. I'm now gonna own you at css!!!

Yeah, please wiz can you release the next competition, I haven't entered any of the previous ones and I'd love the comp winners cup. Comp winner sounds like they win a computer…

I probably wouldn't win though :(

I'd bet $100 bucks on ray

Well, I don't know who entered so I don't know who could win…

[Question]Can you win 2 competition cups[/Question]

Nobody but star and wizzy know all of them. But most people released theirs and rays was awesome. But someone might have not realeased theirs and it owns.

if i remember correctly a while ago WT-Fakawi was lloking into making a stackable icon. i'm not sure if they comp cup is stackable or not after all, but you would probably get someting on your icon to say you won two comps.

n i agree, plz do release a new competition :p how about one for the 1st of may ;)

Starblaster stated (I think) he was going to grade them again. While he was writing his SCAR Tutorial.

I just downloaded his Tut and have read 3/4 of it. Look for me in competition 4. ^.^

If there ever is a Competition #4 AnonyMouse.. It's been like 8 months since the deadline of 3.. Granted, Star was away for like 6 1/2 of that, but still..

There is a good change of a #4 coming up soon…

Closed

Opened?
