What happened to SCRAMM?

[megacles]

It used to be hosted on Mojo but it doesnt seem to be any more.

 

Is the project still going or did it die out? If it did that's a pity, it was looking very good.

[jannar85]

It went dead a long time ago.

There IS other good engines tho.

 

Like GLUMOL, AGS, SLUDGE, RoBot and some others...

 

I'd recommend you towards AGS though, and it's located @ http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk

What is sludge? I havnt heard of that one

[jannar85]

I haven't tried SLUDGE that much.

AGS is for everyone, and it's quite easy for newbies.

A problem with a lot of adventure game engines is that they're not really finished and the documentation isn't very good. AGS looks ok but I haven't really used it much. Sludge is fairly good, but it's not for beginners, it's not free and the documentation is a bit incomplete.

I use SLUDGE.

 

I've tried AGS too, but it's not my (blue) cup of tea. Maybe that's because I'm not comfortable with non-windows IDE's.

The latest version uses windows. I'm going to take a look at it because it looks more finished than Sludge. The only problem is I'll have to convert my .tga pictures to .pcx, yuck.

[jannar85]

Hehe PTDC, I've told you that I could convert everything for you - free of charge.

 

Just tell me, and I'll do it.

ROBOT is easy to use. The much forgotten about Monkey Island Explorer is being made with that - and also a version with AGS. Check out a download on the ROBOT site!

[jannar85]

I don't like RoBot because it keeps the source open to everyone...

That's the only problem with it. It's a good engine tho...
