Capstone class week 8

My assignment that was due on November 1, 2010.
Was to create a mix of different sound playing that I would hear at a concert.
I pick the music instrument and build around it set each instrument in a certain spot.
Like a live show example a concert will have the drummer on the right the electric
guitar player on the left etc.

My instrument was the base guitar I set it on the right as the solo and build around it.

I told Adam my final project will be a story using sound that I create.
The sounds will tell the story about what is going on.

senior class project week 7

I got some great fed back from the tester.
I am looking into adding a point score, points the player can gamble.
I need to do some research to get ideals on how this will work.
Not sure on what kind of point system to make.
The research will help.

Senior class project week 7

I added a black card design to the back of the dealer cards.
This make it look like a deck of cards in the game.
Instead of showing a black blank space in the dealer's card.
Slowing making changes to my blackjack game.

Senior Game Project class week 6

I added a score to the cards of the player and dealer, what this does is show the player's card score Example Six of Club, Five of Spade, Four of Spade and Five of Hearts total 20. The number 20 will appear under the player's cards. The dealer cards and score will appear when the player press either the hitme! or stay button.

If either the player or dealer score over 21 it is a bust and a lost.

Senior Project class

I am testing my Blackjack game. I have written eleven questions for the testers to
answer. The feed back from the testers will be great information. My question are
does the buttons function well? yes No. Does the sound play well? yes no.
Does the table color look good? yes no. Do the text colors look good? yes no.
Is the game too easy to play? yes no.
Should the game be changed? yes no.

Search for more picture images to used in my power point. I have the main images that
match my Blackjack game I need three more that comes close. In my power point I am going
to talk about the first ideal for the game which was in C++ code and talk about the game created in flash action script cs3.

Capstone class week four

I love the audio sound class I am taking this term.
My mentor Adam likes my sound project. He told me I doing good in the class.
My sound goals evaluation I got a 2, 3, 4, 5, 5. I did not reach some sound goals.

microphones with frequency response used for recording.

Senior Game Project

The next thing that I did in creating my blackjack game. Import the sounds in flash.
Set up class names for each sound and create variables sounds names. create codes for the sound to play.

The sound files I am using are card draw, card hit the table. You win, you lose. You got a blackjack. Dealer got a blackjack. These sound files give my game sound.

Senior Game Project

Senior Game Project

The next thing that I did in creating my Blackjack game. I found free sounds to use.
The web site is www.freesound.com I had to set up an email account to used their sound
for free. I used sound from this web site in my senior project 2 class in July. It is always a good ideal to site the address were the sound came from. Even if it is free.
This will protect you from any law suits in the future.

Capstone class

I past my goal of creating five sound files, I created 15.
The sounds are my first creation my mentor Adam said I sound create a project to show
in class. I agree and said my project will be ready on November 3, 2010.
Adam knows sound I am glad to study and learn from him. Sound was always something I wanted to do sense I was a kid. I was watching the three stooges when I was 10 years old. I said how did they make the hammer make that sound. Now I understand it was the sound artist that made all the sounds.

Senior Game Project

I have to learn test a few lines of code checking for errors, and correcting them. Then completing a project and having lots of errors. This better then checking line by line to find errors. I learn this from studying other game programmers, and tutorials.

Check a few lines in my code save time in the past I use to check line by line not any more.

Senior Game Project

The next step in creating my blackjack game. Is to make all the cards into movie clip.
I use the name mcCard.The cards will appear on the stage showing card type and card value. I talk early about the cards as Jack, Queen, King. The suite are Spade, Diamond,
Heart and Club.

The values of the cards I created as movie clip. I used the name mcValues. J, K, Q, K.
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ,9, 10. The Card Ace can be a value of 1 or 11.

Capstone class week three.

My five goals.
Goal one create five water sounds.
Goal two create ten new sounds.
Goal three create fifteen new sounds.
Goal four create twenty new sounds.
Goal five create twenty five new sounds.

Senior Game Project

When the player play my Blackjack game. I want he/she to feel like they are online.
The table is in a Birdseye view. They will see the top of the table. It is lime green
color. Most Blackjack games online are money green color. I did not want that, I wanted
my game to be different. The cards of the player and dealer will be large. This will make it easy to see and read what both players hands is.

Senior Game Project

Milestone two
creating my blackjack game, the next step is to create the Fla files. The Flash
action script files. I am going to used cs3, because I have it at home. The Fla files
will include code to operate the game. It will have three buttons and a text message
screen that will appear during game play.

mechanic revision March 18, 2010

I did not have help on the mechanic revision for our game.
I suggest having dogs patroling near the trees. The dogs will attack and kill the squirrels if they can catch them. How this will work if their is a tie the dogs will attack. The basic mechanic will remain the same the difference is dogs are added.
