Something like this! http://minus.com/mXifewelT/3f

Oh man, that's bad. Can you run 'glxinfo' and PM the output? Would help to know what linux drivers you're using, some have known issues with the framework I'm using.

I also get the same artifacts from the video. I will also PM you the glxinfo, if you don't mind.

  wow that was fun...

Could be a lot more difficult though... It seems that when you leave an area(or maybe just over time) enemies respawn. I may have killed the boss a dozen times but I don't think it took more than a hit or two.

I can't wait to see where this goes.

Hello. One day I decided to install Java 7. I thought, "If this is an upgraded Java, might as well get rid of Java 6!" not knowing what would happen. When I installed Java 7, I saw I could not see anything ran by Javascript! (3D images, etc) So then I went to download Java 6 again, long story short, Java 6 couldn't be installed again, so I decided fuck it and might as well use Java 7! I went to install Delver alpha, and a WinRAR file came up, when you said it would be Java. (Nothing against you) I went to see the "Open with" tap, then the only option was WinRAR. I need help with how to find the Java file again!

Java has nothing to do with Javascript: the only thing they share is part of the name.

Besides this, you can run the jar file from command line with:

Code:

C:\>path_to_java_binary\java -jar name_of_package.jar

You can do this from a console window (Run -> cmd). Note that the "path_to_java_binary" might be something like C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_27\bin\java.

Hope it helps.

I'm really liking where this is going. That 'GOODBYE DELVER' screen is going to haunt me, haha.

I put together a short piece of music inspired by the game; feel free to use it if you so desire: http://soundcloud.com/accendilux/david-zaine-aarons-delver

I need help on how to run it. I'm not that smart when it comes to Java.

Any update on an Android version?

I need help on how to run it. I'm not that smart when it comes to Java.

The current alpha release of Delver is in the format of a "jar" archive. This archive contains all the data needed to run the program.

Executing (that is, running or opening) the file can be a little tricky because of how java is installed on different operating systems.

You will need the current (stable) release of Java in order to run the .jar file (see http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp?locale=en). This is called a JRE (Java run-time environment) which enables you to execute the .jar file.

If you have Java installed...

To run the Java program, see this guide for Windows or Linux:
http://www.wikihow.com/Run-a-.Jar-Java-File

Or check out these guides/forums:

• Windows: see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/394616/running-jar-file-in-windows
• Mac: http://macosx.com/tech-support/how-to-execute-a-jar-file-in-os-x/9549.html

... Basically, like it has been noted several times in this (growing) thread, "java -jar nameoffile.jar" is the universal syntax for running Java programs on all operating systems using a CLI. Running them more easily without using a command line interface (CLI) could be as simple as assigning ".jar" files to open with "Java" inside of any operating systems configuration settings. (ex. windows, "Open with other application," -- find Java JRE program --"check box, always open with this program."

Euu...  Ahhh...

It's gorgeous ain't it?

[architech7]

is that a key i see there..?!

Personally I like the simplicity of the old look more.

[Strife]

I love the blocky old-school look of the graphics. Reminds me a lot of some of the first FPSes like Doom. (And, well, you could say it resembles Minecraft, but it seems like the gameplay deviates enough to make it stand on its own.)

I'm a fan of the new visual style myself. It looks bolder, and the way you used the lighting effects helps add a ton more ambience.

[Xion]

the new graphics are tonslymuch better. This game looks excellent. I'll try it later but just wanted to say "fuck yeah!" to you, sah.

[surt]

Looks kind of like Ultima Underworld, which is nice.

EDIT:
Looking back in time I see that is already known and is intended, which is even nicer.

[ajf]

To be honest I don't mind the new look, but please maintain the old look as an option )

[Uykered]

Looks nicer, but the textures are too low resolution for me.

[Wizard_^_]

I like this game a lot so far!
I like the new graphics as well. My advice, as some random guy on the internet, is to take feed back from people like us who are your future target market, but not let it get in the way of your creativity and dream.  Like the gentlemen who said this was too low resolution: that is obviously the style of the game!  Minecraft showed us all that even with all of the high res. industry games out there, low resolution animation can be fantastic if the gameplay is really great!  I think that what you have so far is really fun to play and I hope you keep on making it the way you want it!

Sincerely,
Wizard

I actually preferred the original graphics. However, I think it would be really wise to embrace support for fan-made texture packs the way Minecraft does.

[yuotta]

I really like the GUI/Items with this new texture..But for terrain and stuff definitely revert to the original.
