DAMN, I MISSED THIS: THE TEXT ENGINE IS FANTASTIC !!!

Good job, but this is simple stuff.
It's not EXTREME, not near extreme. It's a basic effects engine...
Probably usefull to those who copy/paste stuff, but for advanced users this is a joke.
6/10
I'm afraid it looks like a lame GameCave copy.

Better luck next time mate.

This is pretty sweet. I'm gonna use the lighting thing for my RPG propably.
I like the catherine wheel too.

Good Job!

Mmhh here's a new name for you: Extreme compilation of other people's work with an extreme lack of credits. Fairly accurate I'd say.

Meh, in my opinion it doesn't look good anyway. Built in particle effects are heavily overestimated, and often do not fit in with the rest of the game. I prefer consistant sprites, surfaces, blend modes, primitives. They have alot of power.

Can't think of anything kind to say, sorry. Happy holidays I guess ;D

I like it a lot and though I agree with the rhysandrews dude, I am still going (I think) to use and recode some things
ofcourse, credit is given...

This is awesome! I loved it! I'm very inexperienced with effects and stuff so it's really useful. I'm gonna try find a use for some of these in my game! I give it 8/10

I know theres a really good topic i found on 3D effects in GM but i can't remember where I found it. If you need more then look for that. I'll have a look...
Edit: Ahh Found It! Maby you can get some of these for insiration (But u'd have to give credit to them if you use too)
I recomend the 3D realistic looking water.

Nice job on the particles... I'm surprised they didn't even lagg me... The fire mouse effects were good, might use em for a sun!

I'm interested in the text engine: could you add a room to explain how the text drawing works ?
I mean the text of the description: it gets disposed automatically on different lines, how did you do that ? Please, add some comments to the code of obj_main_controller

This engine reminds me of the Gamecave Effects Engine, these effects aren't as good as those but they are a lot more diverse, lots of different effects.

The typewriter noise got really annoying though.

[Topaze22]

It's near of the GameCave Engine, and it's normal that you credit them (for honor and honesty)
But I admit that there are new realy interesting things and I will use it for my game to.
I give you more news in august ^^

It's about a french community project who's 3 years old.
