i want make a simple game in dos

[devcom]

nice update mate.You can add something whitch will echo all maded accounts on computer and sth like del all of saves or something becouse you have hiden a saves folder.

Yeah im betatester ?  And your inspiration ? 

           Tested By:
             Devcom
                 ....
          Inspiration:
 Devcom's Realms of *censored*

i will post my game but i must improve save and load game, make some maps and i think it will be cool

[gamerx365]

Well you are the only person who has commented specifically about EDS. Realms of *censored*, well if you never showed me that then I wouldn't have made a game at all. And tell me more about this hidden save thing. I used to have a hidden command that would show all users but that was less effective. I think I will fix that now though.

[gamerx365]

and also I forgot the code to show a whole txt inside the batch. anybody know it?

[devcom]

Good i coudl help you

hidden i mean the game folder is hiden in C: so its imposible to delete account or sth

to show users you can make sth like this

Code: [Select]

dir /b C:\EDSit shoudl echo all folders so accounts too

and also I forgot the code to show a whole txt inside the batch. anybody know it?

you mean type "file" ??

[gamerx365]

yeah, there is a delete profile option if you go to the profile menu.
alright thanks for the directory thing. before I just had

Code: [Select]

dir C:/EDSYeas exactly the code I was looking for! thanks.

[gamerx365]

alright I used a different code for the users command though, what I did is I made it so that every new profile will echo the username into a new line in allusers.txt and then when the users command is used, it just reads that. Now i get to do the fun stuff, making dungeons... ugh... I want the dungeons but I feel like theres something better to do with my time lol.

This EDS game is very good and I like it. I think you should have it so you can walk around the place and so on. That way it would look better and be more of a game. So the player could wonder around and do what he wants instead of just choosing options.

Good game though,

[devcom]

my game have that option so you move and sometimes monster is attacking you

[Tan_Za]

What I mean is that so you can move your character around a map. That sort of thing. Well any way I have had a big think about this and I think We should make a team and produce a good batch game. I will post my game soon in .exe format. I have been taking a look at the EDS game and I think that the coding point of view that it is a very good game. It runs on windows 2000 and XP and I don't know about vista, I havn't tried yet because I hate vista and I don't have a copy of it. So what do you guys think of us all making a team to produce a batch game.

Does my idea sound good or bad, choices!!!

the team is good idea imo. It works on Vista. Butif you post your game can you post it in txt so can view a code and learn if we dont know sth

[gamerx365]

Good, I'm so glad you like it. Any yes, for the next version I am working on a map that you can walk around on, well kinda. Its a map and each exit has a choice and you can pick wich exit to go through. and sometimes there are monsters in the room and sometimes you find things which are transferred to your inventory. For now you cant use anything in the inventory but I might make an option to sell all things, i dunno....

As for the team, that would be cool but we would have to split up the coding, since thats nearly all there is to batch scripts. like we would have to divide it in to sections. I would be willing to try the team game after I finish the EDS V4 update, which will be awesome lol.

here is my game but its not finished yet so if you can, post BUGS etc.

ok phoniex looks really good exepect on the main menu were you create or login to an account it keeps on flashing and doesnt allow you to select which option.

[macdad-]

hey great program macdad. um a few suggestions.... one, make it so if you type the letter 'g' it does 'G' i hate having to do caps. also, when you do system time and stuff, make a seperate menu for them like this:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
:time
echo                                                                 %date% %time%
echo            1. Check date and time
echo            2. Change date
echo            3. Change time
echo            4. Go back to main menu

set /p choice=PLEASE ENTER A NUMBER....
if %choice% GEQ 5 cls & goto time
if %choice% LSS 1 cls & goto time

if %choice% EQU 1 cls & goto time
if %choice% EQU 2 cls & date
if %choice% EQU 3 cls & time
if %choice% EQU 4 cls & goto mainmenu
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
that way they can check the date and time WITHOUT accidently changing it
feel free to use this or feel free to flush this down the toilet, i don't care

thanks for your advice until now i didnt even know the date and time variable so ty. (i'll make the changes in version 2 )
