GameDev Tools - AutoTileGen

[@uheartbeast]

Great new series Shaun! I'm excited for this.

[@MakingGames101]

This looks like a very useful bit of kit, even just for prototyping, I can see it saving a lot of time. Thanks for sharing :)

[@Hybban]

This tool is on my wishlist on steam :) I'm so glad you did a presentation on it, I'll definitely buy it as soon as I get some money.

[@StephaneGman]

I was thinking about this the other day.. the whole showing tools to make games thing.. this series was a great idea. cheers!

[@guycomments]

This program looks fantastic. Thanks for bringing it to our attention, Shaun.

[@MJoStriker]

This is really useful i'm super happy your doing a series like this.

[@TomMasonSculptor]

Have you use Spriter? That could be a good one to review (or another like it).

[@MCOD1999UK]

Can you use the tiles made from this software commercially??

[@guycomments]

MCOD1999 of course. that's the whole idea!

[@MCOD1999UK]

oh XD ty :D

[@Triral7]

Definitely looks like a program I'll be investing in, being a pixel artist myself. I'm currently using a program called PyxelEdit for my spriting/tiling. Some really good features for tiling and animation. Give it a look!

[@DeathColor96]

do you have a solution to tiles not covering some edges between tiles when the port on the window is zoomed in?

[@DeathColor96]

***** thanks man!

[@m0zzy71]

Just bought Spriter Pro .. Can you do a 'Make a Sprite' and 'Export and Import' to GameMaker Studio .?

[@joshua7426]

Do you plan on doing a action rpg tutorial series maybe something small like a town maybe 1 quest and fighting a mob with a weapon .. and maybe even a title screen etc i see all these game tutorials and i ve learned so many things yet i still dont know how to tie them into an actual title screen or menu properly lol its sad i know.. ive been trying to find a decent rpg tutorial similar to zelda based combat with paperdolling gear or weps for a while now and cant find anything and usually if you do its been unfinished for months or years

[@any9835]

how big can you make the tileset? 32x32 16x16 I answer myself

[@MistyMusashi]

Thanks shaun.

[@stijnd.6320]

[@galewallblanco8184]

***** dem TRUE. x_x

[@XaneMyers]

We don't have money to be ale to get this potentially useful tool, but... ***** can that Game Maker project it comes with be imported into an existing project by copying over its .gmx files for the sprites and objects, or does its project file have to be the base for your game's project?

[@GhostGK21]

Some sound programs that works well for GM:S would be cool!

[@SirArtanis7]

I think GIMP might help out people without Photoshop, or inkscape if they would prefer an alternate to Illustrator.

[@Aquazzz]

This actually looks so cool, this is something I have to get in the future!

[@stijnd.6320]

very nice video btw!!

[@DavidDachaDjordjevic]

Sorry for annoying, but I think many of GM:S users have a hard time with views. What I want to say is that, when making a game for different platforms, the view should be suited the device the game runs on. So could you make a tutorial on making a script or something to adopt the view for every device without stretching the sprites or so... ? Please... ? :)

[@LinkFaroreHylian]

David Djordjevic What your asking for is nearly impossible to do. Every game is different regardless of the device it's on. Creating a script that would detect what device is used and adjust the view accordingly could be done, but it would be VERY advanced stuff. Your best bet would be to just get more familiar with the GML and understand what kind of game you want to make from the very beginning, planning ahead is everything. After you know what kind of game you want to make and understand how the game will be played you will, by default, know what the view should look like and do to a basic degree. Then all you have to do is code it into your game.

[@larryteslaspacexboringlawr739]

thank you for gamemaker tutorial

[@Gamewwx]

Cool software

[@kolegaramic260]

First!, Btw. Can you make a toturial in GMS how to change wepens

[@kolegaramic260]

+Sword of Monarch Thx a lot man

[@Motorsheep]

Just got this on sale for $3... excuse my french, but how the f*ck do I make this work for top-down tiles? People say they've used it for top-down games, but I can't see how...

[@windbreakers2989]

I wanted to request more videos that don't have you in the video literally. I'm distracted easily when theres a person in the video. I'm curious if others feel the same way or I'm just the odd man out.

[@SageNode]

link is dead

[@DragoniteSpam]

Next programming challenge: replicate this in GM. Here's the Steam link, for the people who are into that sort of thing: store.steampowered.com/app/305860/

[@johncaballero151]

i think dead link bro?

[@XaneMyers]

I'd love it if any "Steam gifting' of this was possible; I think I'm Xanem123 on Steam...but of course no one will, I bet; We'll be getting money in about a week, but I'd appreciate any gifting of this potentially awesome tool!

[@CoinsWithTourettes]

do you make money on your vids??? if yo do can you make a howto vid for making money on youtube because other people make no sense and they are all different and dumb

[@zeldaolb1]
