Author Topic: Block and White - v2  (Read 19002 times)


I am currently working on a project to recreate a similar game to 'Black and White' in blockland...
Not sure why, but it's fun and I was bored...



POLL RESULTS:

April 9th - Do you like it?: Hell yeah!    10 (43.5%)
April 15th - What pet would be best?: A giant bot     7 (41.2%)
April 20th - What secondary pet would be best?: A strange alien creature   3 (60%)



For V2 the following addons are needed.
Although it's not released yet, I am putting all the addons used here for my benefit since I cannot remember all of them. It's also a kind of pre-warning of future reuqirements.
By request, I have put the urls of the ones I can find.
Ok:                                                     (More will be added when I know what I am using)
- Bot Events
- Zombie Mod
- Additem event
- Zone Bricks
- Zone Events
- VCE Variables
- SetEventTimeout
- Prompt Events
- Best with Tape's Colorset

Defaults Required:
- Rowboat
- All playertypes
- Bow
- Sword



Right...BETA released at this url
http://www.mediafire.com/?gj0ymjdzo3q
V1 beta
V1 requires a really old version of prompt events...so meh


Getting it to work? = I haven't got the time with all the extras to make a manual but:
First, make a mine, then back at control board, click the plus which appears to gain power...30 sec timeout[/size][/color]

Black and White - A game where you are a hand (god) and have a land with people and buildings on it and do stuff...


The best way to show it is by a video I made:
1st v1 video - Original Video
2nd v1 video - New Video
Block and White v2 Video

Since I screenshotted 9 images, I didn't really want to place them all on the topic because I spent time organising it and making it compact.
Here is the link to the album, along with the old B+W images.

A couple of the images are below: (Sorry for Page Stretch...i'll fix sometime)





Bugs: (v1)
- Sometimes, the soldiers do not attack you enemies - ALWAYS
- You may have to click multiple times to avert a disaster - Fixed in v2
- Some of the villagers phase through the first floor of the houses, trapping them on the second. - lol fun, still happens due to playerscale stuff

Bugs: (v2)
-The miner's waypoint makes a miner go wierd and switch back and forth for a few seconds...not sure why...unfixable, but it only happens once


All screenshots currently shown in video, due to version re-doing.
I will add v2 screenshots tomorrow (maybe)


If you wish to help, post a reply in this topic asking if there is anything than needs doing. If I accept, these are the rules:
- Build on a maximum 8x16 plate unless specified. I will usually want smaller
- Make it mini scale (like minicity)
- Make it look good
- Keep to the theme allocated
- Try and use similar colors to the ones I've used for the other buildings (tape's colorset if possible)
- Unless you are:
A - Told to add events    or
B - You are someone who has helped already (boodals),
do not add events, except a possible disappear events if you can make a reasonable door :D

Alternatively, you can look down this list and pick a build to do without my approval. Then, post it here and I will accept/decline it.

Needed:
- Docks
- A college/library/university building - Plan to have educated citizens
- SPECIAL: A wonder to the gods with maximum 50 bricks, all of which must be easily accessible by wrench

Allocated:
- Destroyed buildings - Conan
- 4*8 plate ship - Phflack

I also need ideas on what happens if:
- N/A for the moment



OTHER
-------
As you can see, i've renovated the main post with pictures.
I will add pics of v2 later



- How do you make it so that a citizen has a 50% chance of going a different way at a road junction. I know it uses ifrandom, but I don't understand how to use it SOLVED - Ty boodals

Looks fun, But the build aint that good

I built the thing for events mainly (my primary aim) and once all events are there, i will improve the buildings.



I have the exact same problems with prompt events. :C

well maybe not this project specifically.
but a simplified real time strategy game would be cool on blockland.

Halo Wars?

forget no.

I use prompt events for this...
It kinda gives a 'try and fail' basis to averting disasters!

All the more reason to make this!

Are you loving stupid?

It was a joke. I was mocking all the die-hard halo fans on the forums.

Looks pretty cool.

Nice cover-up there. You are just a bandwaggoning friend.

nice, i would love to play with this or test it out :D



I loved the original Black and White game. I especially liked the giant pets... GO MY COW OF DOOM!!

This is a really good idea and would like to know more about how you actually set up all of your events. Good job.

9/10 (1 for it seeming like it's a WIP)
