I believe that this is going to be a hefty task to answer everyone when a lot of people start posting on this.I'll be on this several times a day to give as much help as I can to this thread, because its a fantastic idea!

If anyone could answer me these questions I would be in their debt

1. Is there a command to equip a spell in rpg mode, i.e. BIND "1" [equipspell_01] or something like that?
2. Can you make seeking spells, for example, once cast follow another player?

3. Also when I use writeobj Mymapname it outputs an obj file of about 255KB and opens blank in other programs... Any ideas?

Thanks,
Owen.

1: I Not great in rpg mode but yes there is but i am not sure what it is like i try my best to find out for you.
2: I think you should be able too but yet again i am not great in rpg mode.
3: Not sure what you mean about other programs but if you mean other programs as other game maker's then the .Obj is in cube scripted which most other programs do not understand.

Thanks

@Owen

So you can make an object of a map which u can open with another program? what kind of file? (Needed 4 gamemaker)

[klimyriad]

You might be able i not sure.

I found out what was wrong with my question 3 - What I meant was:

Afte making a map, i typed in writeobj mymapname into the console, then an obj file gets created calld mymapname.obj. However, when I used blender nothing came up when I imported it. However all i needed to do was scale it up about 1000 times, and it was all there.

Any ideas about the first two questions?

Thanks,
Owen

1. I'd assume there is a way to do this, but sorry, I couldn't help.
2. Well I know you can make models follow the player around/chase the player, so more than likely you could make a spell do this. If you can't figure it out/nobody helps you, I will try and look into this after school today.

And as for this topic... it's stupid. Forcing all the questions into one topic is a train wreck waiting to happen; people are not going to get answered once more people start posting, it will be harder to tell if there are new questions (Let's say someone posts a question on page 2. Then, another person posts a question right after him. Well, people start discussing the second question for a page or two. Unless you go to all the pages and look through the posts, you won't know about the first poster, so it will be a bunch of "answer my question plz!!!!" posts). Not to mention, when each question is in its own thread, people can search the threads to see if their question has already been asked. Once this gets bigger, nobody is going to search through 30+ pages to see if their question has been asked before.

Keeping each question to its specific thread is far more logical and practical, jamming it into a single area isn't going to assist anyone. However, chances are my suggestion will be dismissed by some illogical rant, so whatever.

[owenisred]

Ronnie is correct I think... It will be pretty much impossible to manage this eventually, ill still give as much help as I can.

You could make it a bit easier, if you intend to keep this up, klimyriad, by editing your first post every time there is a question with a link to that question. Then people could see if their question was posted already

2. Well I know you can make models follow the player around/chase the player, so more than likely you could make a spell do this. If you can't figure it out/nobody helps you, I will try and look into this after school today.

Ah ronnie you hero, cant believe i didnt think on that!

Any advance on my first question?

[klimyriad]

Ronnie at this minute of time it is just a test and also we are not jamming people into this thread there can still post outside of course but this thread is here to help people that is all.

owenisred i will i going to add as much as i can to the FAQ and i try to help you.
