Platform Character Outline by chumbucket

This is a very large sheet of several 48x48 poses for a platform character. This is just an outline, intended to be minorly edited to provide you with a great variety of stylistically similar platform characters. I designed this resource for people who want to spend less time drawing sprites for their characters and NPCs in platform games and more time programming the actual game - this shows when programmers make games that are focused on small, 8x8 "blobs" or "pixel-men" as main characters which are just very difficult to get emotionally attached to in any way, shape, or form.

The process is simple - just import the frames of whatever animation you'd like into Game Maker, edit them to look like your platform character (porportions and styles are already taken care of, you just have to draw hair and clothes - usually the easy part of spriting a character ^^), and you have a human platform character to use in your games.

These sprites are completely royalty free. You can use them for private or commercial purposes, on Game Maker games or in Flash movies, or maybe even professional games, whatever. You don't even need to contact me for permission to use them.

Quiz Game Engine. by bluesy_92

This is a simple Game Maker file that can be used to create a quiz. The questions are ones I used in a presentation, but can be replaced with your own. Working it should be easy enough to figure out, and it shouldn't be too hard to have a different background for each question, add more questions, etc. It is really simple right now, but can be made as complex as you want. Please give credit to Bluesy_92 for the engine if used.

Read and write strings in b... by asmodeus

These are two scripts to write strings into a binary file or to get a string out of a binary file.
script 1: file_bin_string_append(fname, str)
Call the name of the file as fname and enter the string (str) that should be written in the binary file.

script 2: get_file_bin_string(fname, string_start, string_end)
Call the name of the file as fname. string_start is the start position (offset from the beginning) where to get the first char (0 for the first byte, 1 byte = 1 char) and string_end is the position if the last char (1 for the first). example to read only the first char: get_file_bin_string(myfile, 0, 1);

I hope that helps you.
