General information

Hi to everyone, i'm Umberto,i have not a license yet. I made my previous game "Chronicle of Innsmouth"with another engine and now i would like to go to a platform that can support multiple platform specifically for adventure games. 

Ciao Umberto e benvenuto nella "famiglia" di Visionaire Studio

Hi,

you can start with the Indie License and later on when you're ready to publish your  game you can purchase a professional license (or whatever license fits your need).  An upgrade is not possible because prices for Indie License are already very low.

Thanks for answers, by the way i'm playing a little with free version. It's very intuitive and  i like it.

You have to create an options menu & use Lua script to be able to read/write data from/to a config.ini file. That way the player can determine the default language, volume levels, resolution of window mode, etc.

There are some filter options in the game properties tab (cog icon on main menu). Choose nearest neighbor in the minification/magnification filter dropdowns if your game has a low default game resolution. HD resolutions should have the filters set to linear interpolation.

I believe there will be some artifacts generated by screen scaling, but that's to be expected with 2D images. They aren't 3D so they lack anti-aliasing for smoothing out the pixels & they aren't vector either. It's a shame VS doesn't have support for vector images.

already did it, but i would like to know if there's some options (maybe in full version) to have the scaling use the screen resolution instead of native one to have less artifact. (this is how it works with previous engine i used)

What do you mean? Scaling up or down to fit the screensize will always generate some artifacts. The only way you don't get artifacts is if the game is played at the default game resolution you specified in the game properties tab.

Fullscreen mode always scales the game up/down to fit the screen. Window mode by default unless you have manually specified a different resolution field in the config.ini file will scale the game to the default game resolution size.

i was talking about character depht scaling

character pixel size cant go smaller than the resolution of your project. It will not look like in AGS so that the pixels get smaller (which looks nor right by the way). It will look like the classic resolution scaling of objects like in MI1/2, DOTT, Indy or Flight of the Amazon Queen

regarding window mode:

you could run a lua script at game start to double/triple/quaduple the size of the window

Which is simple enough.

Thanks guys i will look forward into it
