hack And Slash Tutorial

can anyone answer my question?

 

Aren't they all on his youtube account, should be able to find them all on there still.

 

They are both on Youtube on his channel and of course over at http://www.burgzergarcade.com/tutorials

 

iTunes, by default will only display the last 100 videos. There was some discussion on this in the chat room about a month ago where someone posted how to get it to display the last 200 videos. I am afraid I do not recall what the solution was. As already mentioned, they are all available on a few other sites. The most popular being, Our website, YouTube, Blip.tv, and VodPod.

 

Im currently deployed in Afghanistan and it would take an 1hr or so for a whole video to buffer on youtube so i dont really have the free-time for it to buffer so while i sleep i would let them download but ran into the issue where the first 70 or so videos i cant find.

 

this is extremely nice but can you do the tutorials using javascript?.. it would be exelent

 

I will try to take a look later on today on finding a place that they can be stored for downloading. Since there are so many, I do not want to have to host them myself, as this could lead to extra storage and bandwidth costs.

 

Most of the stuff that we have done so far can be converted to JavaScript fairly easily. The real problem will be later on when we are done prototyping and start to refactor things to be more efficient. I have not found a substitute for such things as delegates in JavaScript.

 

Hey Burg. I just wanted to say that you are doing wonderful job wiht these tutorials. Thank you for doing this.

Karel

 

appreciate i really hope you can find something. If not i guess ill just wait till i get home.

 

Wow this set is really moving on since I last looked - I need to find time to get into learning C# and Unity. I have done a few of these videos and they really are excellent and perfect for anyone looking to get started with Unity

 

Just recently happened to stumble across BurgZergArcade and these awesome tutorials. Can I just say:

"THANK YOU FOR ALL THE HARD WORK YOU HAVE PUT INTO THESE", seriously there is a lot of great information in these tutorials. Please keep up the awesome work!

 

Just wanted to let everyone know that we are starting on particle systems/FX.

 

Thanks a lot for creating this tutorial series, this is really good for people that are from rpg focused game communities and so it really holds my attention well. I'm only on tutorial eight Targeting Enemies 1/3 , I had a problem where I couldn't get the 3 enemies targeted where they would appear in my inspector and when I pressed play, it would start on pause and I had to unpause the game to start it. I continued through the last part of that video anyway though frustrated because of the bug. I searched over and over for the problem and finally found it.

GameObject[] go = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag("Ememy");

Pretty frustrating to find your huge mountain was a spelling mistake, my MonoDev font made the "m" look like an "n" even through my quick scans. lol

Either way, thanks a lot for creating your awesome series.

ps. Why did the game pause right away when I pressed play, when I had only one spelling mistake? Also when I was still stuck on that spelling bug but finished the video anyway, why did pressing Tab pause the game during play? The only thing tab did at the time was call a blank list of enemies (like I said, the spelling bug failed to target anything.)

 

awesome stuff.... just loved it...

 

This should deserve to become stickied, I have followed these tutorials from nearly when they were first starting and I must say Pety has put a lot of work into these. In my opinion this is the best series of tutorials out for unity coding in C# and Unity 3d in general

Keep up the Awesomeness man

 

I am new to Unity and after getting to know the program I wanted to learn how to develop simple arcade style games and these tutorials was just the answer. I had been studying scripting by itself and wasnt gaining much ground but after watching several of the videos and seeing how they are applied it is starting to make sense. Now when I have an error I am able to use the log file in unity to see what the error pertains to and what line its on and am able to fix it. I am no artist so scripting was all I had and until watching your videos it was just a bunch of code with not much meaning but now with monodevelop and the error log in unity this starting to be more and more fun. HELP I CANT STOP lol anyway thanks for giving back to the community and I look forward to see whats next.

 

Hi have one problem with 20. tutorial , here are the code:

}
}

And get 2 error message, but im new in C# dont know how to repair, please help me out from this problem.

Here are the erors:

Assets/Scritps/Character Classes/BaseCharacter.cs(98,114): error CS1526: A new exression requies () or [] after Type

Assets/Scritps/Character Classes/BaseCharacter.cs(98,114): error CS8032: Internal compiler error during parsing, Run with-v for details.

 

@iceangel :: post your issues on the burgzergarcade forums -- but double check whatever issue you're having may have already been resolved. AS for your code snip above -- don't forget to do a spell check For example: its Length, not Lenght in all the array calls .

 

Oh thx, dont seeing that whriting bad.
Near all errors gone , only one remaining but this will post there.

Thx for help.

 

Not only that, but you have spaces where there shouldn't be . . . for example:

AddModifie r(new

there is a space between the "e" and "r" that should not be there

 

GetSkill((int)SkillName.Ranged_Deffence).AddModifi_er(new ModifyingAttribute(GetPrimaryAttribute(int)Attribu_teName.Nimbleness), .33f));

Actually theres two spaces . . between "AddModifier" and "AttributeName"

I highlighted them with a red underscore.

 

Thanks for the support You do not know how many emails/PMs I get a day with typos

 

Keep up the amazing work Petey!

 

I'm sorry to ask this, but, what is a hack and slash style game? :S

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hack_and_Slash

 

Wow.

This is definitely the biggest tutorial collection I've ever seen. I'll be diving into this soon.

Really commendable work.

 

This is probably the BEST tutorial I've seen, it clearly and concisely delivers what it promises.

On a personal level, I did get stuck at around 40~ because even though I could swear everything up to that point was exact, it errored aplenty. I then tried to buy the scripts for $10, but I couldn't get anywhere on the site, it kept saying my cart was empty on check out.

 

Whoa that list of tutorials looks very helpful! Diving into them now
Huge thanks in advance!

Also motivates me to continue writing my UDK tutorials I've been planning to do!

 

The last website update introduced a bug for people that were not signed in and trying to add stuff to their cart. This has been fixed now.

 

After finishing the Community Challenge #1 tutorial series (well done, btw!), I started to dive into this one.

Right at the beginning, you import the Standard Asset package. I don't have a Standard Package to import. I have a Standard Package (Mobile), but it doesn't have anywhere near what you have.

This is in Unity 3.4 Free. Where can I find the Standard Asset package?

 

Hello OldRod, If you select to add for instance, the terrain package, character controller, and or skyboxes package in your file structure will be added inside a Standard Package folder like it use to be in the older version of Unity.

 

I have been lurking on the forums for quite some time and just registered to say thanks a lot for these great tutorials! I started following them this weekend and have completed the first 30 now. So far it has been a great learning experience and I always wanted to learn how to create an RPG so this one is right up my alley.

Thanks a lot and keep up the good work!

 

This tutorial series is excellent - I want to chip in my thanks and respect.

 

I do not get updates for this post (not sure why), but do try to get over here every now and then. It looks like people are still finding the series a good experience. Thats awesome, because I do not plan to quit any time soon

Thank you everyone for your support!

 

I wanted to express my gratitude as well but couldnt find a donate button on your webpage.

 

There is no donate button on the site. Just site back and enjoy the ride I am.

 

I been working on these but i've taken a different approach I am following ur tutorials but instead of using C# im using unityscript and i find its quite enjoying and insightful, however i have hit snags n had to work out work arounds...So while im still new fairly at unity and unityscript My code is a bit rough but I know this is wrong however it still works, This is for the targeting Enemies part

Code (csharp):

1. var targets : List.<Transform>;
2. var go : GameObject[];
3. var selectedTarget : Transform;
4.  
5. function Start(){
6.     targets = new List.<Transform>();
7.     selectedTarget = null;
8.     AddAllEnemies();
9. }
10.  
11.  public function AddAllEnemies(){
12.       go = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag("Enemy");
13.       for(var enemy : GameObject in go)
14.         AddTargets(enemy.transform);
15.      
16.  }
17.  
18.  public function AddTargets(enemy){
19.      targets.Add(enemy);
20.  }
21.  
22. function TargetEnemy(){
23.     selectedTarget = targets[0];
24. }
25.  
26. function Update () {
27.     if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Tab)){
28.         TargetEnemy();
29.     }
30. }

I would just like to know where I went wrong and how i can fix it...


Also i cant seem to figure out how to get the Selected targets to select the closest one but everything else works...

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.  
3. var targets : List.<Transform>;
4. var go : GameObject[];
5. var selectedTarget : Transform;
6. private var myTransform : Transform;
7.  
8.  
9. function Start(){
10.     targets = new List.<Transform>();
11.     selectedTarget = null;
12.     myTransform = transform;
13.     AddAllEnemies();
14. }
15.  
16.  public function AddAllEnemies(){
17.       go = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag("Enemy");
18.       for(var enemy : GameObject in go)
19.         AddTargets(enemy.transform);
20.      
21.  }
22.  
23.  public function AddTargets(enemy){
24.      targets.Add(enemy);
25.  }
26.  function SortTargetsByDistance(){
27.      
28.      
29.  }
30. function TargetEnemy(){
31.     if(selectedTarget == null){
32.     selectedTarget = targets[0];
33.     }
34.     else{
35.         var index : int = targets.IndexOf(selectedTarget);
36.         if(index < targets.Count -1)
37.         {
38.             index++;
39.         }
40.         else{
41.             index = 0;
42.         }
43.         selectedTarget = targets[index];
44.         SelectTarget();
45.     }
46.  
47. }
48.  
49. function SelectTarget(){
50.     selectedTarget.renderer.material.color = Color.red;
51.  
52. }
53.  
54. function Update () {
55.     if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Tab)){
56.         TargetEnemy();
57.     }
58. }
59.  
60.  

 

I love these tutorials. They pretty much taught me most of what I know about scripting.

 

We can support by buying the scripts
http://www.burgzergarcade.com/product/tutorials/hack-and-slash-tutorial-scripts

 

+1 to rockysam. I bought the scripts even though I never actually used them just because the tutorials were so great.

 

Hi admin,

Why not make this thread sticky too?

 

I also wanted to chip in some thanks here, this series is what got me working with unity in the first place . Also i heard some things a while back about multiplayer, are you planning on turning this into a multi player hack and slash or just stay single player? I would definately love to see some ideas you have about that topic as some of your approaches to tackling things are pretty cool.

 

thanks BurgZerg , you're an amazing person

 

This is probably the best tutorial series for unity using c # to make a game, so why hasn't this been sticky yet ??

 

i definitely agree ,he deserves it

 

So BurgZerg's website seems to be down. Is there a mirror or something for the tutorial?

 

Here's the youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/BurgZergArcade

 

Hi everyone. unfortunately BurgZerg's website seems to be down and I can't download the 249HumanAnimated file. would anyone please upload it here or send it to my email address because without that I can't have any further progress in learning unity3d.

 

There are files associated with the tutorials? That might be a minor inconvenience. I tried to tweet at him to let him know that his site was down, but got no response.
