Ha I've found another tutorial for y'all. I haven't viewed these yet, but they're video tutorials in .wmv format available for download. It covers the creation of a text-based RPG. From the single-sentence descriptions of the 14 parts, it looks to be interesting. Here are parts and their descriptions, according to the site: Part 1 - Setting up project and library Part 2 - Creating the player class and basic town Part 3 - Defining the player and creating the Inn Part 4 - Create Weapon, Monster, and Entity classes and start of battle function Part 5 - Finish battle function. Test with multiple and single enemies Part 6 - Finished summon portal. Random monsters generate based on level Part 7 - Weapons,Armor, and potions can be purchased. (frames missing) Part 8 - Potions can be used, potion inventory autosorted. Spell class created Part 9 - Added spell list and target to battle. Stumbled over setting up spell casting Part 10 - Fireball, heal, and poison work. Spells list in stats Part 11 - Fixed various bugs. Seeded rand, spells can be purchased Part 12 - Fixed error checking. Player can level up Part 13 - Blaze and Random Spell added Part 14 - Briefly goes over quest creation and adding finishing touches. Just thought this might be interesting for quite a bit of people. I'm going to go check it out now

You are literally watching someone type code. And the video doesn't even to support skipping ahead.

Hah yeah, although it does allow skipping ahead on my computer... and the site says it allows it as well

Hey Shakedown!

Not to be overly critical, but..

If you're going to write a "hey guys check this out" post, you should probably:

1) actually watch the videos first so that you can tell us if they are good
2) give us a link
3) not write a repost of something that the original creator already wrote on this site (http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=364617)

But thanks!

Very good...I was too distracted to actually GIVE you the link...haha. The reason I post these tutorials is that even if they're not THAT informative or good, going through tutorials as a beginner is always going to help(in my opinion[did with me at least]). And, somebody will go through em, there's always going to be a beginner who wants to take a peek. So, here is the link, please forget my stupid error haha.

HERE!!!

And as for the re-post, I've searched for RPG on this site and never came across that post, so sorry for any re-posting.
