Pascal Gamer Magazine Issue 4 Needs Content: Want to write an article?

"or whatver"? lmao What does that mean?

haha I was being silly saying WhateverX for some other API that I hadn't mentioned or heard of maybe!

I used to use PasteBin and screen cap from that, but it comes out blurry unless I mess with the DPI of the images in photoshop... It'll be as a single image anyhow so it's not like people will be able to copy paste your code. Nor should they. You can include code in file form that can be downloaded as your article bonus archive file for that. So for beautification, I used to use that.

I actually just manually color code it all myself lately. Takes some time, but it looks the way I need it to at least.

Ok, thanks mate
Maybe I will leave it up to you so it doesn't become blurry if I do it via PasteBin...

Hi!
After some browsing trough the forum I found a Thread from Mayley (http://www.pascalgamedevelopment.com...1039#post81039) in wich he is asking for help in developing off a combat system for his game.
Since I havent ecountered any Theme or article on this matter I was thinking off making an example off a combat system for him and maybe even try to write an article explaining off how it is done.
Would you be interested in including this article in the nex isue of Pascal Game Magazine. If so please do tell me till when I need to finish the article.

@WILL: it looks like it might take maybe 2 or 3 more days for me to finish my Boulder Dash article...is this a problem?

cheers,

Yes, that would be an excellent idea for an article! 'How to make a combat system for your own RPG Project' has a nice ring to it. In fact I would like more things like that in each issue since it's a GAME development magazine. I think sometimes articles focus too much on API and libraries and porting to platforms and code when the really good stuff is in designing the mechanics and structure of different games. As far as deadlines go, I'd like to have it by the end of December if that is possible.

Paul: Hey that's no problem. Like I said by the end of this month is best because I can take all the submitted articles and work on them while I'm away. I don't know what my internet will be like when I'm gone so getting it all in before hand is best.

Again, in case you missed my email address it's contact@pascalgamer.com. Send all submissions to me here.

Hey will, about the android tutorial, I'm in france at the moment and although its been going nicely so far I suspect that due to me not having 24/7 access to the web and having to decorate a house I may be a day or two into next week. Of course if that causes any problems I can still push for sunday completion...
