TGB Adventure Kit

#1 I believe I read the TGB Adventure kit will work on an iphone but to have any reasonable performance you need to move a lot of the scripting over to the engine so you will need to know C++ and the TGB Engine. I'd learn to use TGB first before moving to working with the adventure kit and iTGB (unless you have money to spare...).

#2 Thanks a lot for the info, Drethon.

I think your advice is the best procedure, once again thanks mate.

#3 Yea the AdvKit is not optimized for the iPhone... but it will be in the future.

#4 Tom, has anything happened on this front yet? It's been almost 5 months since you posted. ;-) I assume with how busy you guys have been on T3D the answer is "no...we've been swamped", but I figured I'd check anyway. ;-)

The reason I'm asking is I'm looking for a solution to build a 2.5d iso collecting/quest game for the iPhone for my new employer, and immediately thought of the adventure kit.

#5 As I noted in another thread (AK and TX), the ground tiles are great, and the art can be scaled down and rearranged a little to work on the iPhone. I've scaled the ground down to a quarter the size (half width and height), and they still looked right. The orc looked OK, but could benefit from being rendered to the smaller size in the first place - he's also not square, so I probably messed him up in the process.

Scripts are really the sore point. Rendering out smaller art is probably a quick job, but the real problem is those large scripts which drive the AK. Converting those to C++ would be the majority of the job, but the trick is doing it well. You can probably learn a lot from them, though. The assets are just a downscale away from being usable.

#6 @Ryan - Yea mostly crazy busy with stuff.
