Commander keen in wolf3d?

Heh, Look what I found in 'WL_PLAY.C':

//
// TRYING THE KEEN CHEAT CODE!
//
if (Keyboard[sc_B] &&
Keyboard[sc_A] &&
Keyboard[sc_T])
{
ClearMemory ();
CA_CacheGrChunk (STARTFONT+1);
ClearSplitVWB ();
VW_ScreenToScreen (displayofs,bufferofs,80,160);

Message("Commander Keen is also\n"
"available from Apogee, but\n"
"then, you already know\n"
"that - right, Cheatmeister?!");

oh and also:

#define BJRUNSPEED 2048
#define BJJUMPSPEED 680

IN WL_ACT2.

so it is possible to jump?

Yes... But it would be just skipping few tiles...
I can post the tutorial later.

Oh, the basic Idea would be like this:
"playerx & playery = playerx & playery + 3"
"set_movement_speed = BJJUMPSPEED"

uh huh and...what?
all i get is about jumping or something.

Well... Jumping could be usefull feature.
Imagine trapdoors that kills the player if he steps on them,
but if player jumps he can avoid them.

Is it jumping as in height difference or is it jumping as in you move a few tiles, like thrusting except going in the other way?

I would think its moving a few tiles, the rendering engine wouldn't know how to handle the player going up/down.

@Ron: More like thrusting but other way...
@Airslide: Well... I think Wolf engine is capable of making
up and down movement (with viewheigh I suppose)...
but that would cost too much memory...

oh.. ok.

WL_Hack - I've tried fiddling with up/down before, but really you'd first have to get the walls taller (very difficult) for it to really seem useful...and then you'd have to make things passable while jumping, and modify the rendering engine to accept jumping, and it starts getting really messy....and then we'll look like ROTT

airslide is right.
i didnt even knoiw wofl3d is capable of jumping.

Of course. I you ever played the original episode 1, you must have seen bj jumping and yelling "yeah" after defeating hans grosse

Ah yes, that's it, I beleive thats the speed assigned to the BJ object at the end of the episode. Forgot all about it

that wasnt REALLY BJ jumping. that was a computer animation.

That's not the point....its still considered his 'jump' at the end.

How you know that admin? you can't even code.

Admin is right... It was only computer animation...
If you check the WL_Act2.C, you notice that its basically
an actor that is moved to certain point and then played the
jumping animation...

And yes the BJJUMPSPEED was preferring to the jumping animation.

Oh.. but is it possible?

HAHA im right!!!
anyways, its cool to have wlhack back me up
jumping, as wlhack said before, is possiable, but it will take a whole lotta' memory.

who says you're right?

oh and as you can see:

#define BJRUNSPEED 2048
#define BJJUMPSPEED 680

there is Jumpspeed, so how fast you jump. this can't be the amination..

@Angelo: Look at the WL_Act2.C,
and search for BJ VICTORY...

You will find something similar to the enemy moving
defines...

Then that "actor" calls function named T_BJJump that looks
like this:

Code:


/*
===============
=
= T_BJJump
=
===============
*/

void T_BJJump (objtype *ob)
{
   long    move;

   move = BJJUMPSPEED*tics;
   MoveObj (ob,move);
}


The most interesting thing is, it calls definition "BJJUMPSPEED"
that is: BJJUMPSPEED 680...

That definition is to set the speed of movement in animation
(aka. for the pictures of BJ jumping in the air and with his arms
stretched).


If you ever have finished the first episode of Wolf3D, you
understand it refers to the BJ Victory run animation...

I mean how fast the "jumping BJ" animation will move forward,
while showing the frames.

Ok...

basically, what wlhack meant (i think)
is that the 'bf running' animation at end of an espode is actually an animation.
thats what i belive, too.
though if someone comes up with stuff like jumping and stuff, it wil be cool. (ps, this topic is already mentioned on the sticky in this section. maybe you should be posting there)

bf?

that bf107 thingy? i forgot the number.
remember? the video game you play?

haha, bf107

BF2 and bf2142, But what you talked about it then? heh

Battlefield running animation?

arg, it apears i said what i meant wrong. what i was saying was that the animation of bj jumping in truimp was an animation.
