Blockland Scripting #1: Setup
Jan.28, 2011 in
TorqueScript

I’m teaching you people to script. An alternate to Notepad2 is gedit (which works on Mac OS X too). Comments without research or just plain idiotism will get deleted.

This is a PoC crowd generator for Torque Game Builder 1.7.2 that I’ve been working on. It dynamically generates each runner in the crowd with 25 different shirts, 25 different pants, 5 different shoes, 3 different skin tones. Random height, weight, speed, and location. The concept will be expanded to be more dynamic in the future…

I’ve been playing roblox a while and have scripted there, I might change, how much is blockland?
January 28th, 2011 at 4:08 pm
@slotheron207 Not much. I’d say it’s more like Perl or Ruby than anything.
January 28th, 2011 at 4:36 pm
How similar is this to C++?
January 28th, 2011 at 4:40 pm
@SkullSlayer5575 Enable file extensions. Google it.

It’s a visual representation of an LSD trip D:

That’s partially youtube’s fault and partially my fault for apparently not using the right software. The original movie was 480p and 600mb uncompressed, but youtube’s FLV converter murdered it.
January 28th, 2011 at 8:05 pm
I’m trying to figure why it suddenly turns into a bloody mess part of the way into it. o.o
January 28th, 2011 at 8:31 pm
For some reason I find this quite amusing. xD
January 28th, 2011 at 8:40 pm
cool code… now it needs a nicer character
January 28th, 2011 at 9:21 pm
great music.
January 28th, 2011 at 10:18 pm
Thats what i ment.
January 28th, 2011 at 10:59 pm
I get it for free
January 28th, 2011 at 11:54 pm
bwdevel, add me to your list. I have TGB Pro and would like to be updated on your progress!
January 29th, 2011 at 12:35 am
Sure, if you don’t plan on selling it when you’re finished.
January 29th, 2011 at 1:29 am
i am sure there are…. cheaper ways.
January 29th, 2011 at 1:47 am
I’m planning to get it. $150 for the engine isn’t so bad… Cheaper than most game engines out there.
January 29th, 2011 at 2:43 am
this is great, you get the idea of it. good job
January 29th, 2011 at 2:46 am
he he lol, i would buy torque if it didnt cost so much…
January 29th, 2011 at 2:54 am
awesome video,
maybe if you set keyframes to every 15 frames it’ll take care of the artifacts
January 29th, 2011 at 3:52 am
Unfortunately, FLV really sucks for detail stuff… so just when the video gets nice and sexy, it goes to artifact hell =/ I’ll do some production tricks on the next update to work past that…

Awesome project. And inspired choice of music.
