Can i create a Clue / Cluedo game?

Hi guys, I'm new here!

I'm trying to create a cluedo game with visionaire. Let me just say that i have no idea of programming or what soever but i'm willing to invest time in learning, if someone provides a link for a tutorial of programming for what i'm trying to achieve or just point me to the right direction. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

you can do most things in visionaire without needing to resort to LUA Script.

what sort of style are you going for 3rd person, 1st person, find the object & so on?

I can't say I've ever played cluedo only that I know it's a who's done it board game thingy.

there's a few templates in the templates section me & nigec & few others have uploaded to give examples of what you can do & or the basics.

+ there's Glenfx's & Suro's tutorials in the tutorial section ... all in English

there's some documentation on LUA Scripting within V.S but it's not exactly detailed & is lacking clear examples of code - can be found here:

Thanks for the quick reply mate! What i'm trying to do is basicaly a who's done it game. A victim and a suspect are selected randomly and the player has to roll dice or something to make it to each room to collect clues so he/she can eliminate them from the suspects/weapons/room list until he's left with the right clues. Also ai opponents would be nesessary in order to make the game more exciting and competitive. Is this possible???

I'm not so sure ... this is Engine is made specifically for point & click adventure games like monkey island/broken sword but can be used for first person games like myst or find the object ...

having said that I believe the dice would be possible to a point by using a random value in LUA or maybe even in the v.s editor itself.

the AI probably not so much.

everything else aye using conditions, values, if else statements.

you could use random values on new game start to determine which storyline the player will play & using values & conditions you could even make it an adaptive storyline based on clues or decisions you make.

Thnx so much for your help! I'll start learning about conditions, values and if-else statements.

they are fairly straight forward - most of v.s is just logical thinking besides the illogical LUA script

you should pick up the editor itself in no time

& you're welcome
