If anyone wants to look at/help test my game you can download a test version at http://www.serpentsoftware.com win9x + directx required. Regards Bill bill@serpentsoftware.com

Hi there, your game *worked*, but it stayed at the hour glass pointer the whole time. Even when it wasn''t doing anything, other wise I could scroll around make the little guys chop wood and the minimap updated so your doing something right!
All in all pretty nice, fix that mouse bug though...

I tried it out and it looks really good, I ran it and got around 20 fps, and that isnt bad for 800x600x16 for my old P200 pro.

You might want to increase the scrolling rate though.

Possibility

Ran on Win2K. No problems except for the already mentioned hourglass cursor.

Got a steady 36-37 fps

Good work! I wish I could do stuff like this. Running a 400mhz P2 with an AGP vid. card I averaged around 47-48 fps (occasionally it hit around 72-73 fps).

Oh yah forgot to mention... 60fps constant no dips or spikes (Got DX set on "Optimal" Refresh rate) on a PIII 533Mhz w/ Voodoo3 3000 (16mb AGP) and 128mb of ram.

And I''m running Win98se.

Great stuff, ran at a steady 55 fps on my PIII 700 with a GeForce GTS. Nice lumberjacks too

Cool game! Ran about 20fps on P200 with 12MB Voodoo2. Would be good if you could select more units at once if the game is going to have combat. I like how the woodchoppers spread out to chop wood (like AOE2).

AMD K6 233

Cirrus Logic 5446 PCI (Video card)

Thank you all for having a look at my first rts test program.
If anyone is willing to help try out the multiplayer version
over the internet /lan etc. I would be gratefull.
The multiplayer test should be ready in a few days.
Maybe I will add some attack units at the same time
