I know this sounds crazy,but I believe I can do the Unimaginable. How? I am developing an Adventure-like-game and I intend it to be shown at the E3 games convention. Using what tools? Why,Bryce5 and Poser5 of course! Oh yeah,and for my Interactivity Engine?That's a simple one; Macromedia Flash Mx.

What is a CRIF?

Where at E3 do they display flash games?

I eat babies.

Give us a preview man, it sounds cool :D

Sorry its not unimaginable... Folks have been useing Bryce to make Stuff for Games for Years... But bring on the Preview...

Good luck. I helped do the graphics for a similar Flash based WWII warplane shooter. The two guys that worked on it spent literally thousands of hours over the course of 13 months. One guy's wife left him. I hope your not taking on too much.

Well it might be simpler than some think, it's just a matter of developing the dynamics: 1. Render a series of images for objects/characters. 2. Mask render the same series. This is for alpha masking. 3. Use the Bryce renders to produce sprite sheets. (Probably easier than one might think if the renders are consistantly sized, etc.) 4. In flash - make it use the sprite sheets for objects/characters along with the corresponding alpha sprite sheet. 5. This produces an image sequence in that has a proper transparancy. The animation and dynamics is then done through clever scripting in Flash. I was talking to someone at school about doing something using that idea. Basically making rendered 3/4 view sprite sequences of cars thatI have modeled and making a simple racing game. TerraSpeeder vs. SpeedyMotorCar anyone? :)

There might be something worth downloading.

Aye, I've rendered all kinds of cartoon backgrounds for Flash games. It's fun! We recently made a flying Superman Flash game, but then changed it to flying ninjas because ninjas are way, way cooler.

God Bless You All for Being there!
The Truth is I am Making this game for one...er, two reasons;
1.For EVERYONE at Renderosity
2.To Let people understand that I exist and that people like us [the artists at renderosity]deserve to be acknowledged because we are in truth gods who create Life and Emotions.

Enough of that,here are some in-game screenshots to give you guys an idea of the kinda graphics involved.
Thank You.

Hi Fellas,I'm torn as to which of these Engines would be Perfect for my Game.

First there is Flash Mx

Then there is AGS: http://www.bigbluecup.com/

Could y'all help me decide?
I was thinking of a Game creation Gallery/section for Renderosity Maybe sometime in the near future.
