I need help making a house in Game Maker for a game I’m making? Also, I need some graphics resources? Please?
Hello, I’m making a Final Fantasy themed RPG on Game Maker Lite. I need help finding graphics resources. I’ve gotten a few from the website itself, but I’m out now; they don’t have anything else that I can use. I’ve also submitted requests for spriters there to help me, but no answers yet. I’ve decided not to use anyone else’s sprites unless they allow me to use them (usually you have to give them credit in the game, which is fine with me). I’m TRYING to make my own…it’s hard. I need to know how to make a house. I tried using Gimp and just making something with different colors, but it didn’t work. When I make the pointed roof (I’m trying something Final Fantasy/medieval/renaissance themed, like I said), then it shows a white background outside the slants for the roof. And I can’t get rid of it. I can’t make a background of it because it does that, and I can’t make a sprite and then an object because it also does that. So how do I make one? Also, how do I make it so when a character hits the door of the building, they go into the "next room"? (which I have made the inside of said house.) I tried using the event "Contact" and when that even t happens, having the action be to go to the next room. I made that event and action on a door object (made out of a door sprite, of course), and tried putting it on top of the house (it was a house someone else had made and I downloaded.) But the door deletes the house it’s put on top of. I tried unchecking the "delete underlying" and it didn’t work. So how do I do all of this? Feel free to message me at

because I’d LOVE someone I could ask questions of. Usually Yahoo Answers people just tell me bullsh*t or blatantly ignore what I’ve just said, unfortunately. Also, I want to know how to do this WITHOUT learning GML, because Game Maker Language looks what I like to call "IFC", a term that applies to programming languages: Incredibly Fucking Complicated."
I’m trying to learn C++ now, so maybe one day I’ll be able to do simple games with that…I hope so. How hard is GML to learn?How long would I have to do it until I could make a game like the one I’m trying to do now? (Keep in mind it’s got FFV-VI like graphics, on the SNES) And how would I go about making a game with it??? And how would I go about making a game with C++? Sorry I’m asking so much, I’m just eager to make one. Thanks alot:

Well, it seems to me like you’re all bots. Because two of you have practically the same name and none of you have a picture, and the first two answers I got were to search browsers that had absolutely nothing to do with what I asked. The third was to "The Oracle"??? WHAT THE H*LL WAS THAT? Nothing to do with what I asked! Well thanks, I hoped you got your laughs, you little uneducated ten year old. Guess I’ll report you now! ![]()
You could go to http://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php and request sprites (and help) but people don’t usually take on such huge requests.
But if you’re going to make an RPG, maybe you should try RPG Maker, which is especially designed for these things. And it makes pretty decent games too (something you’d never accomplish with Game Maker).
