4 replies · 1,149 views · Started 27 January 2003

just curious if anyone knew how to do storyline animations in ZC. or at least how to make extensive dialogue possible. thanx much

3 approaches:
1. Linked strings.
2. Invis. Link plus -> or left screen warps to advance story.
3. Timed warps.

4. animated tiles
5. neat backgrounds/environments
6. "MORE..." misc. sprite
7. great music
8. "No subscreen" Screen Flag

a storyline to work off of... its a lot smarter to put everything down on paper before trying to Quest it in. then you don't forget who's talking or the dialog!
