2d Rpg Engine?

Master Higgins · Post by **Master Higgins** » Fri Feb 06, 2004 7:21 pm

I am just wondering if anyone has written or tried to write one for DC and would like to give me and Bokkire Jin whatever they have done for it, we were hoping to make a lil homebrew rpg as a first project and it would be nice ot have a comfortable starting point to work from. But, doing it from scratch would work too. Thanx

Mr Siggler and others were working on one, but we haven't heard of it in over a year, maybe they quit.
BlueCrab's engine looks pretty good,hopefully he won't go the way the others have gone.

Have you guys though of porting one of those open source engine, there are qite a few at sourceforge, i don't know the details of how hard would it be to port those engines but the code used seemed basic enought that it wouldn't require much power to be run.

DC-RPG is 3D

I've screwed around with an iso-metric type Diablo engine called Altered God by David Piott. It's on my SDL page. I also tried a to get another 2d engine running done by the same guy, but that was months ago and I didn't get it working. It compiled, but I hacked the hell out of it and couldn't figure out why it wasn't working.

If anyone wants to check it out, you can find it here:

I would say DC-RPG is DEAD, over a year with no reports and i seen Mr Siggler around in the forums.

I wish I could do this Homebrew stuff. I always wanted to make a like expanded version of Legend of Zelda:Link to the Past (not an actual expansion, just a similar game but much much larger)... I think it would be crazy, like make it look like the old Graal Design

Believe me, it's not.

It's not too late to learn. 3 years ago, all I ever knew was BASIC. I'm not the most technical guy in the world when it comes to C/C++, but I know enough to be effective.

You're welcome to use the ljsdcdev RPG engine, written by me. Right now my main page of my website seems to be down, so I'll just point you to the download page: http://ljsdcdev.sunsite.dk/dl.php
Its GPL'ed so keep that in mind if you ever do any modifications to it (you must release them under the GPL). If you have any questions, just ask.

I thought that there was a recent update on dc-rpg showing a screenshot. It was posted not too long ago, I'll do a search and get back to ya.

found it. Was posted right around this past christmas so it is fairly recent.

Maybe so, but some people are less able to pick up coding. Anyone can do it, but for some its hard to create things on their own, figure out how to do things effectively.
