Please read before you post, Fartuess.

In other news, I added the demo release date to my school planner. Now I just need to hide that form one specific teacher for 5 lessons and I'm in the clear.

Oh, and good luck getting flash to work again. Do you use Vista or XP?

I have alredy done my six month switch to Vista in six months I will go back to XP.

There isn't meant to be any changes 'till the demo is released.

UPDATE: www.kttv.co.uk will redirect you to www.tabbicat.co.uk. Any addresses such as "kttv.co.uk/page.php" will not work, please replace kttv with tabbicat. Thanks.

List of addresses that direct to tabbicat.co.uk:

www.tabbicat.info
www.tabbush.co.uk

Don't ask about that last one.

I have Vista Ultimate, I think I have found a way to get it to work but I don't know. I'm flattered you have added it to your planner, but I wouldn't rely too much on that date, I haven't been able to do any work for nearly a week now (because of Flash and because I need a break now and again).

Sit tight and hopefuly it will be sorted.

Calm down, he was just doing as requested. ;)

hey man i tried to play your game and i cant do anything but walk
how do you jump and all that cause ive tried like every key on da keyboard lolz

unless it aint finnished fair enough i guess

This guy however does need to read before he posts.
You're lucky I'm not in a flaming mood. :p

Jumping is currently disabled, I have mentioned this in a number of posts.

The online demo is very limited, the full demo will be out soon.

Well, thought I'd say something... I can't do any graphical work until I get my hands on that storyline rampage was working on for the game but until then, all I can do is wait... Without the storyline the levels I make beyond the point I make would most likely lead away from it without it.....

BlackVenom..dude im trying as fast as i can ok? Im just one kid. I cant do everything in under 20 seconds. I just want it to be as good as it can be. please dont rush me. btw i got a msn now. pm me if you need it.

I know man, I'm not trying to rush you. I'm just saying I cannot continue any more work on the game unless I have something to base/make the level designs off of... Can't just take random guesses at what comes next. But it's all cool man!

hey i am making an OW game too!
i'll call it "oddworld alf's oddysee"
it is in 3D so it well take longer time than urs ;)
i still need a model for "abe,slig,munch,modokon,glukon,flying slig,scrab,paramite,shrykull"
if any body wants to join me u r more than welcome :)
abe and the mud crew well weare cloths and glasses and stuff! sligs too!
so wanna join me sense u r a very good game maker?! i well tell ya the programs that we need but not here not now. when u accept and then i'll tel ya at the PM. ;)
and cool! i may give u the sprites :D
PS: can u help me make my website? :D

dont bother tryin dude it will take a sh*t load o time and since ur 11 it will take till ur 17

Wrong place to advertise, Joshkrz wouldn't talk of such on your thread. Perhaps if you're serious about that stuff you should make your own thread, a 3D fan-game would surely attract interest from members of the FC, I know I'd have a lot of questions for you. ;)
and fuck you! I'm doing the sprites! :p
PS: Without the knowledge for simple tasks like website building I wish you luck with your game, you'll need it. :D

Damn right I woudnt.

I charge people for websites to say it's my job, and I don't have time at the moment sorry.

UPDATE:
This game will come with an automatic updater that checks for updates of the game and presents you with a straight download button. This updater is started every time you load the game (but is optional to load) and gives you access to a number of options.

It also has a custom window skin that looks like a Vista window even on XP.

I think I have managed to get Flash working as well I hevent tested it yet.
Hopefuly updates coming soon...

stop fuking man! ok i'll leave the sprites!!!
so... forget my game it'll take 1or2 years i don't think that anybody of u well be alive :p

a game without sprites is basically moving invisible objects with a crash course to randomity

Start your own thread, and you may get some people willing to help.
I can't though, since I don't know how to program games and don't (currently) have any experience with 3d stuff

Trust me, I AM a 3D graphical artist and seriously, This sorta stuff won't be made in just a few years... And nobody would be willing to do 3D work without any form of pay....

Also, getting everyone else to do the work for you isn't gonna happen without some money going out to the people working on YOUR project...

A 3D oddworld game will be no where near as good as a 2D one.

I wan't to learn how to use 3DsMAX and Adobe Director, that would be great.

BTW let go back on topic now eh?

it could be, if given enough time, and given as much detail as a 2-d oddworld game.
but anyway I'll get back to topic now.

Exactly what I was thinking! But I know how to use multiple 3D programs, Although I haven't used them for a while >.>

Blendr 3D, Pro Desktop 8.0, ZBrush and some other i forgot about! xD

My favorite 3D program is Notepad.

OK FLASH IS WORKING! Game will resume progress starting from now!

i am working at C4D (cinema 4d r.11)
PS: the 3D game well be much better cause it have more adventure!
i already wrote the story,and modeld only the buildings, but i just need to program the game and get the 3d models from anywere
BTW i have some of my frinds in my country that is working with me :)
and when the game gets popular we well get popular too! and i well give every body what he deserves from mony ;)

Just to let you know... If you make profit off a fan game, the actual game company would be able to sue you and right now in a financial crisis, Companies would be dieing to sue people.... So I wouldn't put a price on anything if I were you....

Here yeah, please can you stay on topic DJ9000. Make your own thread if you want to let people know and not use mine.

People use this basically as an advertisement thread now.... It's just getting annoying now... Might try to notify Splat about this and see if he can deal with anyone else trying to advertise here..

Exactly why you should have elected me. :p

Seriously, DJ9000DEVIL, no-one approves of your "advertising" here. Please stick to the topic of the thread you are posting in and if you wish to converse over your production make your own thread for it. ;)

OT: Sorry about the recent lack of sprite development, Josh. I'm real big on slacking and wanted to see if I could further the production of my Oddworld Caramelldansen but I hope to have the 'hop' sprites completed soon.

Ah cool thanks, I don't think that deadline is going to be met anyway.

SMALL UPDATE: Walls now work perfectly.

What has this thread become? With so much spam and adverts... It's hard to skim through and know what is about the actual game, and what is an advert to something else.

At least we know the demo is on the way.:D

Yup sure is.

Any more adverts or spam will be reported straight to Splat or Admin. People who want to get decent information have to spend time and effort just searching.

Thanks Oddey.

I don't know if this has already been stated, but when does it come out/is it already out? :D sounds like a blast. Edit: Oh, and sorry if this can be considered as spam. I was too lazy to skim through this at 1 in the morning. :D

I think there's a demo of it on the first page of this thread, but no I don't think the complete one has came out yet.

Far off it actually. But don't worry, production is continuing.

It was meant to come out on the 14th, but it dosent look that way, but like Carnix said, we are working on it.

I have learnt something about myself: I can't animate oddworld-like explosions, let alone at 40FPS. Seriously, started again for the 12th time in 2 days :fuzmad:

Yes 40fps is very high detail, but with lower frame rates it wil look like one of those crappy flash movies you see on cheap websites.

Like Newgrounds ;)

Your work is one of the best and promising fan-made things I've seen on these forums! I really hope that this one is going to be finished.
Maybe I could provide you with some backgrounds like these:

http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...es/render6.jpg
http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...es/render5.jpg
http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...es/screen2.jpg
I planned to use renders like these in my own oddworld fan-game but I hadn't enaugh time to programm the engine to the complete stage, and abandoned the game in favor of railroad caternary model project.
If you give me the layouts of the levels and basic ideas I could do them in 3D.
But still I can't promise that I'd be very fast at work because I study to become a mathematician and really don't have much spare time.

I have seen them renders before, and I think there amazing, unfortunatly there is already someone working on backgrounds, but would it be possible to create sprites such as UXB's secorbs ect, or create 3D fmv clips? If so your definatly in.

Another link to the non-updated demo:

www.tabbicat.co.uk/game.php

Yes, I've already posted these here. In fact when I was going to make a fan-game I had an idea of Abe infiltrating a powerplant. I've done a load of these backgrounds back then but never finished the engine. It was too glitchy and faulty. Still I have an idea to take that back to life in summer. I can create stuff like UXB's etc.
By the way.. do you code in Cpp or C or have some experience with DirectDraw?

No sorry, I'm a graphics and web deisgner so I only know how to use stuff like the Adobe Suite. I was thinking of learning C++ though but currently I have WAY too much stuff to do.

Can you animate 3D stuff? Because if I can have 3D FMV's in this game that would be so great.
