Maniac Mansion The New Saga

[1mal_volltanken]

Hello,

I watched the accounts of Rubacant about his MMtNS-work again. But I couldn't get new informations about the development status of that game. Do anybody know more? I think, Rubacant wasn't here for a longer time. So he didn't write news anymore.
It´s interesting to know, when he will finish his work.

best greetings

Genau genommen ist er sogar heute zuletzt hier gewesen.
Schreib ihm doch einfach ne PN.

Manchmal ist Rubacant auch im Chat. Ist allerdings immer nur kurz, wegen des Zeitunterschieds.

Good luck on teaming up with edna_mausi, a serious and skilled designer renown for his reliability and dedication.

Das will ich mal überhört haben. Kein Beweis ist kein Gegenbeweis.

Stimmt, ich dachte mir sowas schon, als diese Sache mit dem DR.DRED vorkam!

New Verb GUI






Still needs a bit of work

[Mister L]

What are the two 'follow'-buttons for? 

[MMNS-Rubacant]

To make other kids follow you  and stop following you . So you dont have to waste time moving one kids  and the other to the same place. Take them to the same place at the same time.  The Mansion will be pretty big and this will save time.  I should make rules that you can only have 2  kids follow you at a time. Mabey i should put in a optial setting for this.  For 1 to 3.

When do you think will your game be completed?

[Link2005]

Nice idea with the 'Follow'-Buttons. Why wasn't somebody thinking about it before?
How about a 'Run' and a 'Sneak'-Button? For example if you have to be quiet or run away from somebody/-thing.

[MMNS-Rubacant]

Ya cool. If i can find room on the gui i add them.   Sneak will make you walk slower and you have a % chance of the edison not seeing you. 

Mabey i could give a special Verb to each kid. Im not sure what verb thou    And i think the follow verb would save time. like not having to move one kid up stairs and move the other one.



Its still going to be awile before this game is done.

Any possibility to get a tech-demo of that GUI?

Nice.

[Endres]

Really good. But why Laverne got a two new hair?

[MMNS-Rubacant]

Thanks for the posts.
 

    Her hair will look normal in game. I had to Shave her hair down just a bit so her head would fit and the select box allso when you pick her.
