There really isn't a plot as of yet. The game basis itself around an arena. The arena itself is a selfsustaning town with seven wings that tear off from it leading to seven rooms that lead to seven gateways that lead to seven worlds. That so far is basically it. The arena should be roman empire setting. My first step is really learning out Java works in the gamming environment for 2d animation and play. Once my applet is done with v2.0 I will release it to the world and go from there. Characters and plots are always a nice thing to have and on top of that if it gets picked up by PO then the story/characters/world could probably change.

I already have some ideas from the last time, I'll try to revisit and flesh them out some and pitch them to you.

Oh it wasn't directed at you Yunni ^^;;
I typed the post up, talked to Hoth about a few ideas I'd had stirring and then realized I didn't post yet. You and I should work together, I bet we can get all sorts of crazy ideas.

*Update

Switched back from Jbuttons to regular ungraphical buttons due to repaint and got the absolute positioning down.

Working on positioning the fighter pics for fighter 1 and 2.

Okay after much learning I sat down last night and built Panel 1 Smile

For Mr. Shino this is what it looks like.

Code:

package adventure;


/**
 * @author zalexander TODO This class builds Pane1
 */

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;



import adventure.ImageLoader;


public class Pane1 extends JPanel {

   static final long serialVersionUID = 0;
   
   static Button       viewInventory,newGame, loadGame, saveGame, exitGame;
   
   private String      playerHp;
   private String      playerExp;
   private String      playerExpNeeded;
   private String      playerLevel;
   
   
   
   
   
   Pane1(){
      
         viewInventory = new Button();
         viewInventory.setLabel( "Inventory" );
         viewInventory.setEnabled( true );
         viewInventory.setActionCommand( ConstantsButtons.VIEWINVENTORY );
           
         newGame = new Button();
         newGame.setLabel( "New Game");
         newGame.setEnabled( false );
         newGame.setActionCommand( ConstantsButtons.NEWGAME );
   
         loadGame = new Button();
         loadGame.setLabel( "Load Game");
         loadGame.setEnabled( false );
         loadGame.setActionCommand( ConstantsButtons.LOADGAME );
   
         saveGame = new Button();
         saveGame.setLabel( "Save Game");
         saveGame.setEnabled( false );
         saveGame.setActionCommand( ConstantsButtons.SAVEGAME );
   
         exitGame = new Button();
         exitGame.setLabel( "Exit");
         exitGame.setEnabled( false );
         exitGame.setActionCommand( ConstantsButtons.EXITGAME );

         add( viewInventory );
         add( newGame );
         add( loadGame );
         add( saveGame );
         add( exitGame );
         
         setLayout(null);
         setSize(90, 400);
      
   }
   
   public void paint(Graphics panel1){
            
      //Paint Player Image
       panel1.drawImage(ImageLoader.playerImage, 5, 5,this);
      
       //Set Player Strings
       playerHp = "HP:" + MainView.player.getHp() + "/" + MainView.player.getMaxHP();
       playerExp = "Exp:" + MainView.player.getExp() + "/";
       playerExpNeeded = "" + MainView.player.getNeededExp();
       playerLevel = "" + MainView.player.getPlayerLevel();
      
       //Paint Player Info
      
       panel1.drawString( playerHp, 5, 90 );
       panel1.drawString( playerExp, 5, 100 );
       panel1.drawString( playerExpNeeded, 5, 110 );
       panel1.drawString( playerLevel, 5, 120 );
      
       //Paint Buttons for Pane1
       Insets insets = getInsets();
       Dimension size = viewInventory.getPreferredSize();
       viewInventory.setBounds(5 + insets.left, 150 + insets.top,
                     size.width + 35, size.height);
       size = newGame.getPreferredSize();
       newGame.setBounds(5 + insets.left, 180 + insets.top,
                     size.width + 47, size.height);
       size = loadGame.getPreferredSize();
       loadGame.setBounds(5 + insets.left, 210 + insets.top,
                     size.width + 10, size.height);
       size = saveGame.getPreferredSize();
       saveGame.setBounds(5 + insets.left, 240 + insets.top,
                     size.width + 10, size.height);
       size = exitGame.getPreferredSize();
       exitGame.setBounds(5 + insets.left, 270 + insets.top,
                     size.width + 10, size.height);
      
   }
   
   
   
}


Also made a class for Player, Image Loading, ButtonConstants, Main Window and set some sizes Smile

Ill do more this weekend. I need to figure out how to do the player name and if it needs to be in the Player.class (where im defining and storing all the player stats) Until another Pane

is "player" a member of MainView. If so, why are you referencing it directly as opposed to with a getter.

Why are you referring to MainView Staticly? This isn't a good idea in the big picture. If you ever get to the point where this is on a server somewhere then the "player" member will be shared by everyone who uses that server.
