Yeah good point James. Though I am not asking for code, just direction from those with experience. Guess trying to re-write a game in a day at the same time as trying to learn a new subject is a bit ambitious. I had pretty much finished the game but the code is just one huge class, and all the pseudo 3D movement is totally fudged as the graphics (fish eyed view) do not help with coding 3D movement. Anyway I decided to start again from scratch and try and do it in a more organised manner.
Here is the version of the game that I had nearly completed. Lots of bugs but you will get the idea.... http://www.mediakitchen.co.uk/rugby_game15.html The 3D effect of moving down the pitch was done by just scaling the background / pitch image with values that I got by trial and error and its just not good enough to polish things off. Hence I am trying to recreate the pitch entirely with code http://www.mediakitchen.co.uk/move_pitch.html Then I will add a camera. http://www.mediakitchen.co.uk/scaling_camera.html Anyway as I said, this all has to be completed today which is why I cheekily asked for some direction. I will probably just do the sounds the way I previously done them for now and research this at a later date. Ok time to create the 3D game environment....
