Title: Does any body here use GameMaker 6? Because I need your help.
Post by: ivan mage on August 15, 2005, 06:50:33 AM

If anybody uses GameMaker, tell me, how do you get an object to change its sprite when the player moves around it? Like, when the player's to the left, have the object change it's sprite to one facing left. I've tried EVERYTHING!

If you help, i'll put your name in the credits of my game. :o

Ill put an example on a player and a shooting monster, if the player is on the left side of it.

I think it is like "If there is an object "player" on a position ---somewhere left of the monster, determined by its shooting range---", then do "---whatever stuff what you want, like shoot a bullet to the left---".

Change object instance?

If it isn't called that, sorry, I'm a bit rusty.

You can use the image_index (or was it sprite_index?)

trevlac , game maker is  way more legal than any translated rpgmaker will ever be.

Sides your comment was like, not helpful at all, yet this comments will help you understand that game maker is aoud to be alked about cuz... it is not illegaly translated, for it's in english to begin with. and it's free i believe. so freeness pwns illegal freeness.

Anyway, if you need not of this thread, pm me or post about it an myself or another mod will lock it. (alking to the author) If not then resume with a diff problem i guess.

Well right now, the npc creates an object of a bullet when the player is nearby, and the bullet is programmed to go towards the player. I'll email the game to you.but since i just started the game, is only one room.

Once you have figured it out could you please send it to sundre12@telus.net

Thanks for your help.

EDIT on second thought, could you just pm me the directions, as my emal has just crashed on me.
