Virtucity

[Mark Waybill 242]

I started a project in 2005 called AtoCity with Game Maker. Despite recently learning C++ this project, now VirtuCity, is still written in GML. Its eventual aim is to create a SimCity 5 like game with the features we wanted 2013 to have. At the moment it has primitive landscaping and roads, and untextured models, but is fully 3d and has a totally free roaming camera allowing views from any angle.

If you play the game and like it please 'like' its Facebook page, and if you wish to join the project then contact me. The project is not for profit and so the only reward for any contributions would be credit.

^ This is the download link. It is in Zip Rar format, so is only about 2.5 mb, containing the exe and model files.

I have not included any screenshots as at present the graphics are untextured and the models fairly vertex starved to speed up development of the game, however most buildings now have models.

Wow! I hope you succeed in your goals. I wish I could play it and try it, but it says it cannot retrieve the document.

Also, this is just a suggestion based on the picture:

Add an option to disable grids?

Right the link should work now. Stupid me went and made the file private... Now it should be able to be downloaded.

Still getting a "Cant retrieve file" error.

Okay I've stored it at Mediafire now so the link should work now. Once again sorry about all this but I set it to public so I really don't know why it wasn't working.

The link in the first post (markwaybill.110mb.com/virtucity) redirects to some application for web hosting.

[Mark Waybill 242]

Changed link it should work now. Unless you enter it precisely it does do that.

That looks promising.

I downloaded it but my anti-virus blocked it saying its a Trojan

The file is now in Rar format so only takes up 2.5 mb download amount. All residential and commercial buildings have models now.
