Platinum Arts Sandbox - Free 3D Game Maker Forum

I have just recently found this program and have been playing around with it a bit. For a school project i have chosen to use this program to make the game for it and i need help with scripting, so over the next month i might be asking alot of questions and i would appreciate if i could get an answer as quickly as possible. My first question is where do i find the .cfg files for my maps (say i made a map named "halo") so that i could open it up using wordpad and put in a script such as a shop script? i am using Windows 7 and my Sandbox version is 2.5

the my_stuff\packages\base folder is where your personal maps are saved
Though I've noticed that on 2.5 .cfg's aren't automatically written
I have to create them by copying and renaming .cfg's from the other maps
in the packages/base folder

thx guys for the help, im really getting excited about this game. see ya around

I have a fair amount of knowledge about scripting and I'm quite a wizz at coming up with "a" solution to a problem.

Well.. It depends on what you want really. Do you want someone to script maps? or the game_rpg.cfg? or game_fps.cfg? etc. or even special functions for the entire program? i created a screen recorder for it. and that works incredibly well. It may, fingers crossed, be included in the 2.6 release. You can ask Arcones about the crosshairs menu script that I found. Let us know what you need a coder for and perhaps some of us can help.

okay if i could get somone to code a few things that would help ALOT, im sick and tired of learning scripting codes anyways, tried learning like fifty in the past month. i guess i would need a code that would make some sort of creature (a red robochimp would be ideal) attack the player with a spell that looks like someone is shooting a gun at the enemy, a spell that is like a gun for the user itself, something to make it play and loop a certain song, prefferably set up so i could just change a few words to make it play one of my custom songs. i know this may be a tall order but i would like this done as fast as possible. if you have any questions please pm me or e-mail me at storm.117@hotmail.com

EDIT: i would need this to work for RPG mode, if that makes a difference in how you would script it

Uh...... That looks more like a job for Venima, im the App coder, mot the Map coder.

ok thanks, i'll try to contact him/her

no luck with him, im running out of time though so if anyone can help me, even with just getting me some info on the AI scripts to make it attack and move in different ways, oh and i need to figure out the doors, as in how to make the door "open" and "close" (appear and dissappear) if i can get this kind of stuff i may have enough info to script it myself, if you have any question contact me by either pm or by e-mail at storm.117@hotmail.com
