G-Creator

Posted by T G M G on Sept. 11, 2007, 1:02 p.m.

I would like to introduce my new project: G-creator.

Some of you may remember me as I created G-Java. it was very basic, but it did support most actions and a few games were made with it: http://forums.g-java.com/index.php?showforum=15

Just as I added the gml parser, Mark decided to make G-java and all other projects that read gmk files illegal. So I had no choice but to give up. I made the project open source, so if their are any java programmers out their who would be interested in viewing the source they can.

Instead of letting all my work goto waste I decided to create my own game maker called G-Creator.

The purpose of this was a game maker that could easily be converted to pure source code rather than attach it to a large, slow runner.

Two converters will come with G-Creator, G-java and G-C++, but we have made it very easy to add more converters. Our development team consists of 2 c++/java programmers.

G-Creator is based on game maker as the development team consists of former users of Game maker. Here is a early screenshot:

Although it is based on GM, we have some changes, for example 2d and 3d rooms are now seperate, as we use a much more powerful 3d engine than GM uses:

Anyway to make a truly great game maker we need your ideas, we will read through all your ideas and if possible add them.

Btw our project is open source so anyone can help ;)

I'll help with G-C++. I've been trying to make one by myself, but it hasn't gotten all that good yet.

I heard of something called aurora. What is that?

Also I am using Netbeans 5. Will that work for the source code or do I have to update?

G-creator 1.0 is codenamed aurora ;)

Netbeans 5 should work fine, although both me and luiscubal use netbeans 6 daily builds.

Mark isn't going to take any action,though Gjava may of gotten the attention to make him react,possibly

Also,that pic requires that I register

Welcome to 64Digits, mmmmkay?

Good luck on that project. It looks like something I would use.

What will games be coded in? (I assume not GML)

That looks so good, I wish you the best of luck!
