Download this project!
Download the 4 sprites and 6 scripts of "4 Sprite XY Scrollin…" and open it in Scratch Project Notes
A simple demo of the scrolling to be used in the upcoming game "Pokemon Magnus".
Something like this is needed for larger scale games such as pokemon because without it the number of sprites would create too much lag.
This is a pretty good way to go about doing things and I reccomend learning this method for use in your own projects.

Woohoo! Archmage the great is back! You aer an absolute amazing programmer.
Hi archmage, it seems like you are coming back online now, so can you check out Pilot Ace:3D. it is being curated right now and i would be honored if you would look at it.
hey archmage, in your sig it said you know alot of languages. Do you know C?
Nope
ohai
cool! I cannot wait until the game is finished. good luck!
He quit.
(view all replies)translation: pokemon large, many.
Wow! You can turn a simple test project into a HUGE SENSATION! You are GOOD!!!
super cool
How old are you?
I used the scroll scripts for one of my games!!! Thanks!!!
It is ok, when i use the scroll scripst?
Love it and Favorite! You have 40 Love - it's!
could you explain this to me?
1_1
could you be a part of this i admire your work (link to project)
Dude. archmage doesn't go on scratch any more.
When are you making your next game?
he quitted

Hey man, you still online?
he quit
I don't see why this is getting so many views. XY scrolling is easy and that's coming from me.
He was famous.
(view all replies)have you quit?
kinda, he/she moved onto programming with Flash, see the beetlse mania add in the sidebar--->
Speed diagonally is greater than speed horizontally or vertically. (sqrt(2(x^2))>x)
Hey archmage can you answer my question down a bit?
I see ur on :P
Glad you're back! I hope you're going to begin doing games again!
Are you still on scratch?
not really. pretty much have done everything I wanna do with scratch.
(view all replies)Hey archmage, i saw in the forums that you program in pascal to! I am learning pascal and a while ago i thought i saw a comment on youtube by an archmage144 or something maybe that was you :P What type of pascal are you learning? i'm learning lazarus
Oh hey, sorry I don't check comments a lot anymore. My youtube profile is archmageflash so anyone else is different. When I was doing pascal i used this older tool called turbo pascal, I am not aware of any other variants.
(view all replies)So now I know how to do this :D Dunno if I'll ever be using it though xD
how much longer till the game comes out?
where will you get the sprites for the ground?
can I please use this? I will give credit. I've figured out how to make it absolutely amazing with my game.
You're allowed to use it without giving credit. It's a script.
Can you put comments in the code? Im generally very good with scratch but I cant quite follow the code here.
Although the scrolling in pokemon will be slower probably. This is cool! Is there a limit to the number of sectors you can add?
Can I use this method for my Sonic Adventure games? I will give credit for the method I got from you, but change it a bit for a platformer. And by the way, I have the same problem of not being able to make an app, although my sister has a mac, it is not updated enough to download the program I need to use. :P
why is y before x in this?
its compolsory its maths
just wanted to tell ya you're featured in my news thing: (link to project)

Hey Archmage? XUDI would be really happy if you would consider joining our collab camp team. Could you please reply posthaste?
sorry, if I do collabs I have to be leader, and the other ppl have to be able to effectively contribute.
(view all replies)It saddens me that you are not all that well known, yet it makes me happy to know that I own one of your favorited projects :D
archmage, not well known? what planet are you from?
(view all replies)i saw your under recently visited or what ever its called
me too!!!!!!!!
(view all replies)cool! btw i'm the 606 viewer
I was told you might be able to help me. I made an infinite scrolling engine (link to project) and I wanted help to make it work potentially infinitely, with some way to keep track of which costume to use. Can you help me?
i highly doubt that because 18 projects are on unregistered paper and projects with unregistered paper has bad reviews
(view all replies)I think this might be sort of what I want, but I want to make it myself, so I just want an idea of how it works.
OMG its hard to understand!!!
how could i make a infinite scrolling one?
Where did you learn to do all this?
this is really clever. can i use this to make a racing game?
i used a similar idea on my newest game!

Hey Archmage, I noticed the note at the bottom of one of your forum pages you were offering coding help. This might be pretty simple but I thought should ask anyway. I want to use Mesh using WWN not LAN. I have heard that a Beta of 1.4 had it but I can't seem to find one. Is there and easier way to do this (a mod that uses WWN for mesh or something) that you know of? If you have the time I would really appreciate your help. -I love colab monsters, Blobgenerator
Yeah, WWN is made up, the proper term is WAN, wide area network. The wiki has a lot of really poorly written content...
(view all replies)Sorry, I am not sure what a WWN is, I am going to guess its a WAN or something. Mesh in v1.4 only has LAN but there is a program called hamachi that can be used to extend LANs. But really, its not the easiest to set up and make accessible to everyone. I persoanlly would just wait til v2 comes out which is rumored to have really easy connectivity features.
(view all replies)looks good
hey, how old are you? have you ever thought of taking up programming as a profession? or at least getting an iOS SDK and making some $ from that?
Haha, no.
You know just to own an iOS license is $100.00 a year. You're much better with getting an Android SDK, which is like a $5.00 one-time-fee.
(view all replies)I am 20 and go to University for business. Its just a hobby, not doing it for a living. I can't code Iphone apps because I don't have a mac.
(view all replies)you said in a forums post that you were learning python. what version? use 3.1; i would have learned 2.6 or whatever but the only book on python i could find was 3.1. can you send me an attachment to a python game at maxskywalker1@gmail.com? i could give you some help if you need it (not that such a programming expert would ever need MY help). i myself am still kind of learning it, but it's just OOP and writing files to the client computer that i don't know, other than pygame.
Errr, don't know where I said that but I don't know and don't plan to learn python.
(view all replies)Please Arch
Dude no, I have other things to do, and I retired from brawl over a year ago.
Look at my comment below :)
So me and a bunch of my friends had a big brawl tournament. I lost terribly. Do you think you could train me to be really good like you or at least better than I am?
To get into the match finder sign up for the forums and go to Live Match-Making!
Well, you can go to allisbrawl.com and use their match finder. Though, its hard to get good by playing online since its sooo laggy. And I have no time for brawl, I have a job and summer classes.
(view all replies)Want to do SSBB but by your rules?
Yeah I am at work for most of the day but I can brawl right now if you want
(view all replies)ok, just say when
(view all replies)did u stop doing scratch cuz u were legendary D:
he's still here...at 20 yrs. old!!!!
i am the 443 viwed
Amazing! Where did all your genius start? I'm going to need a while to understand this code (although I do understand WHY it works)!
(continuation from last comment) the decoded version of the Terms of Service. I'm planning on using Unity as a P2P addition for a Flash web game.
Hey, can you give me some help? I'm trying to learn Unity. First of all, I need a version of the Terms of Service that does not require it to be decoded by an ultra-high-tech robot. Second of all, can you recommend a good UnityScript tutorial? Third of all, maybe a Boo tutorial, too (I started on Python, once. I never reached graphics, though, and the writing and reading files was impossible for me, so I quit)? And a thing on making objects in Unity? If you can only do one thing, give me
