I bought this book the other day because it was specifically for RPG
game programming.
As I read it, I'm surprised by how much the author's ideas matched my own
in a previous game I was building. I feel vindicated in my original
ideas...
For instance, the way the author created his in-game Items were an almost
exact match in the enumeration system. The break down to what parts of
the Avatar's body locations were almost a one-for-one match. He put the
order of "Hand" locations different than I had.
The book appears to be using a version of C# for it's code base. I'm not
familiar with this XNA system, but it appears able to have use scripting.
I'll degress so I can get back to work on the project!
Well, I finally figured out the Fog of War bug. It's gone now. There was also a simple bug with loading Monsters for maps that had been visited already. That's gone.
I went onto the adventure map and added some foilage here and there for visual effect for when the Player is moving around - to see things moving around them for visual ques.
Also...
I'm able to release a play-test version today...I do not know if my web
site is set up for File Transer Protocol, but I'll post it and invite
people to attempt to.
