Re: Simple Steamworks API usage
Thank you! This is pretty awesome. I've been struggling with steam achievements for a long time.
Re: Iceroyds!
Hey, Congratulations!!! I had to use a specific version of the steam dll. 1.35 if I'm not mistaken. I'm on trip right now, very far from my dev pc. I can post my steam code next week. Some is already here: https://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=27574 I'll take a look. I had made m...

Re: "Basic Warfare" FreeBasic Multiplayer RTS Game
I launched this game on steam. This game is still available to play for free via the Love Letter to FreeBASIC contest thread. https://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=27069&p=258316&hilit=basic+warfare#p258316 https://www.indiedb.com/games/basic-warfare https://store.steampow...
Re: Iceroyds!
Congratulations Landeel! I just got my game on steam as well. One thing I'm curious about is how you managed to get steam achievements integrated?

Re: Are you happy with your office's lighting?
Did you or anyone experienced dynamic lighting features? You know those stuffs that imitate natural light in intensity and changes during the day. Ubuntu 18 and windows 10 both come with a dynamic blue light filter and I have a very hard time using a computer or device without one now. They make a ...

Maybe a (youtube) game play tutorial would help.
That sounds like a good idea. If I can find the time I'll try to make and upload one.

Re: "Basic Warfare" FreeBasic Multiplayer RTS Game
tip: the unit you control does not (seem to) fire I discovered that with a "Patrol" unit you can fire with the "Left shift" button. The whole interface via keyboard is complicated, a mouse base interface would be better I think. The number of key you have to press to create a &q...

Re: "Basic Warfare" FreeBasic Multiplayer RTS Game
I tried it again, using Windows this time. But I still don't understand how to create e.g. a scavenger. To build units you can press "1" to enter the buildings menu. Then press "=" to filp tabs until you get to one named "Compilers". Then press the corresponding number...

Re: "Basic Warfare" FreeBasic Multiplayer RTS Game
Ah yes, I just got a bad case of the Sunday stupids :-) Now the game loads and runs, but I can't seem to get anything to working. Klicking any network related buttons ends the program. When compiling, I get the following warnings: C:\...\FreeBASIC-1.05.0-win64\FreeBASIC-1.05.0-win64\fbc -s console ...

It's a dynamic library so they don't need to be in your compiler lib folder. They just need to be in the same directory as the executable.

Re: "Basic Warfare" FreeBasic Multiplayer RTS Game
I feel a bit stupid for saying this, but all I get when trying to compile the code is this: error: lib fbsound-64 not loaded ! I checked the folders, and everything the program needs seems to be there. If you are compiling from source you will need to copy the runtimes from the runtimes folder to m...

Re: "Basic Warfare" FreeBasic Multiplayer RTS Game
I managed to start a game, fly around, place 2 watch towers, but then I did not understand how to continue / what to do. Anything specific that was confusing?

dafhi wrote:unit list idea. most-used at front
possible formula

I think that would be nice. The interface is definitely still somewhat awkward to use at times.
But what you can do is group units into sets selectable via the F1,F2,F3, etc...

Thank you! Sorry about the load time. It's how long fbsound takes to load the music files.

Sorry guys for the delay with listing the final entries. I have problem running Zamaster's The Secret Garden, and I'm still not sure how to go about it.
