Prince IO Sketchup Game Demo

HFM

thanks! I wanted this first time I saw it!

unfortunately I'm at work, and they refuse to give me SU7 for a few more weeks... no way we could get an SU6 version, is there?!

It's pretty simple to make this SU6 compatible. Just save the maps [.skp] as SU6

That's incredible...

I have a mac running OSX 10.5.5, and for every frame, I encounter the error
%(#808080)["newGroundz:
value=>-5000<
TypeError: Value undefined (result of expression value.split) is not object."].
the error pops up first, i have to click enter, then next frame, same error, this repeat over and over, then the knight falls through the floor, screams, and SU messes up. Any idea why?

BTM,

Ah, there's a snippet of code in the .rb file that detects if you're on a mac, but it was added back when the mac/su6 had WebDialog errors that are fixed in 7.

I'll need to test on my Mac with SU7 and post a fixed version.

fantastic! thank you so much for posting this game. indeed, a new era is about to begin

Thanks Scott, this is great!!

I'm working on incorporating this into a school project, and I'm wondering if there's a way to load the engine onto any map without it being hardcoded.

IE - if I could download anything from the 3D warehouse, start the Knight plugin and be able to navigate?

Thanks in advance,

Luke J.

Well, you could do one of two things.

Open one of the .skp files inside Plugins/knightgame and edit the maps directly.
Open the knightgame.rb file and modify the code to not load in a new model but simply run on top of the current model.

So yeah... it's doable. Let me know if you have specific questions.

chief1234

Right, changing the code to run on top of the current model would be ideal.

Unfortunately, I'm a novice at Ruby so I'm not quite sure how to do this...

I tried removing any direct references to maps in the file_loaded? method at the bottom. This way the engine will run, but only on maps AFTER they have been hardcoded, run, then the code removed again...

Obviously I'm missing a vital part of the puzzle...

Any help out of your busy schedule would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Luke J.

Thats fantastic

So when do we get worms

trickout

when i try to go to the linked site for the .zip, it says sight unavailable

can someone post it somewhere else?

scottlininger

Hello trickout. Terribly sorry for the broken link. Please try again.

Cheers,

trickout

Thank you for fixing the link. How can I edit the code, for instance make it move in 3 dimensions instead of just on a plane? I've tried to find a .rb editor but no success.

.rb files are merely text files. Notepad, Textedit, lots of editors will work. Always save as plain text.

Hey August,

I've sent a query to the code site folks asking what happened to the video.

Thanks!

Hi Scott,

I'm Having the same problem BTM did back in Nov:

Have you found a way to correct this?

Hi All,

did anyone ever get this running on a Mac? can something be changed to make it run?

todd burch

This was working on a Mac back when Scott posted this thread. Did someone or SU break it since then?

driven

hi Todd,

I only downloaded it recently and it appears to have the same symptoms as BTM's early post described, so I thought it had not been fixed....

or the solution had moved on to a different thread, as sometimes happens...

so, it's not currently working on 7.1 on a Mac and although I'm happy to modify the code, I'd need some instructions.

cheers

Hmm. Todd's cleaned up version was working on mac. I'll take a look...
