Slick Forums

Welp, no need for that, Gornova. Guess the speed vector variable isn't initialized when the object is created in ME 0.2. Updated to 0.3. If I ever run into this problem again, I'll let you know.

good, okay!

What kind of game do you plan to develop ?

Is pixel perfect collision detection already implemented in marteengine?

not yet

sadly i come over to italy in one week for vacation, maybe i'll visit you for an extreme programming session for pixel perfect collision in marteengine

Hi
So i've just started using MarteEngine and it's pretty neat. although for the collision part, i realized that you could only make simple box collisions. i think a nice addition would be to add circle collisions too, since many games do need this, and circle collision is very simple to implement. im just suggesting, but i am currently in need of it, and im deciding whether I should just make it myself, although doing so might conflict with using MarteEngine. I can too help with implementing this into MarteEngine if needed. hope you guys'll consider it

This library needs a forum or section of its own because I have a problem that nobody can solve because I think its specific to MarteEngine.

You can ask to admins to open a new forum sections, but first.. explain your problem

What exactly does this code do? I know what the is (I coded that), but I have no idea what the code in the parameter for collide does. I get what SOLID means, it checks if the player has collided with a wall, but what does do? And why is that all set equal to null? This is why I wish they had a forum or documentation.

MarteEngine have wiki pages and in particular about collision here

In short: you are checking current entity at position (x+10,y) (=> that means it's moving right with a step of 10 pixels) against another entity ot type SOLID

Hi Gornova, I was just wondering how you would change an entity's grapics to an animation? Because I made an array of Images like but then I wanted to do but setGraphic doesn't take Image[]. Is there another way to do this?

lavago,

Depending on your marte engine version you will find a setAnim in entity. If this method does not exist you can use currentAnim.

If you use the latest version from the dev branch you can load an animation from resources.xml
This works like this:
Like any other resource you add a line in the resources.xml file:
anim name imgName frameDuration row frames(default=all horizontal frames)

name: name of your animation, this is the key to retrieve it later on
imgName: The spritesheet key where the animation should be read from(the spritesheet should already be loaded)
frameDuration: The duration of all frames
row: what row in the sheet contains your images
frames: what images should be in the animation on that row

then:

I agree with stef, just use last version from dev branch and you are okay

ok, but where do I download the latest .jar? all I can find is the source code.

Does anyone know? I've tried doing things with the code but nothing has worked.
