Wumpus polished

admin — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 17:06:41 +0000

Finish it.

Wumpus game is now finished, with GUI and cool features along the way to let users learn more about AI.

See my initial plan which is the features of wumpus game itself, here below to see some glitches about what is going to be like when using it.

Basic Version
This version is the pure XNA application, no winform involved (no buttons, no controls). It demonstrate the basic idea of Wumpus Project. This version will let users be able to do the following.
- See the Agent-Bot in action moving automatically.
- Manually play the agent by using keyboard as control.
- Switch between “Automatic”, and “Manual” mode during anytime even we are currently in different mode.
- Set the weights for agent via config file (can be taken in effect during run-time).
- Regenerate the map (or restart everything).
- Pause the game.
- Quit the game.
Advanced Version
Users are able to do the following.
- Included all the basic features in Version 1.
- It’s a winform application consisting of UI controls.
- From the point above of replay file, users can modify their own agent-bot with their own algorithm. (%)
- Adjust the weights through the UI controls.
- Play-back control, either by playing turn-by-turn or playing the whole actions.
- View the history in text-mode from input replay file.
Extra Version (not yet started !)
It’s purely a map editor creating a map file for our wumpus application to load the map file instead by generating with algorithm.

The current version is the advanced version. No more to talk now, let’s see them below.

I will upload the executable file later on, just check back soon.

Wumpus updated !

admin — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 17:51:14 +0000

More exciting works are implemented.

Fog of war
More exciting when moving agent into another cell.
Reveal all part of map
Let users know what’s all about ?
Retreat
When the goal cannot be achieved then get out from this wumpus cave, and reveal all part of the map.
Textures changed
Breeze, and stench textures are now made to be better.

I am extending this wumpus game into more robust application which includes the GUI to let users control the behavior of agent, and set up thing controlling the application itself. Time will tell then …

Let’s see the updated captured screens.

Wumpus: The Journey to avoid pit and wumpus itself LOL !!

admin — Sat, 21 Aug 2010 15:44:32 +0000

Hey guys,

After idle for a programming task for a long while, right now I with my friends (the same faces as in JubJub team) together do the Wumpus Game for KBS Class (Knowledge Based Systems).

The intention of Wumpus Project is to let students know how to design, and implement the AI mechanism relating to knowledge inferencing. My responsibility is to implement the game core. Others part are doen by my teammates which are AI part for agent, graphics, and sound.

I am a little bit strange to myself at first that I never saw this kind of game before. As I have heard from my friends, this kind of game is already born since a very long long time LOL
Anyway it’s still better to have known it right now.

In wumpus game, you’re an agent who goes deep down into dark to dig and find for a gold piece. The map is 6*6 in which only the center 4*4 is the active area for movement, the edge is wall. There are 3 pits to avoid, and 4 directions not for diagonal direction around each pit will be breeze. That is an agent can perceive breeze and use it in the AI part for knowledge and inferencing stuff. Also there is one wumpus, with stench around in 4 directions not for diagonal direction. An agent can shot a bow into the wumpus to kill it.

As always, the idea of representation may not be the same old school, then we design to create our wumpus world relating to myself, yeah, you just hear it right -> myself lol.
I really like to eat pine-pineapple from 7-eleven alot, and also I love nvidia and my high-end PC is also nvidia both in case and graphics card, then my artist just create the stuff as follows.

Gold – Pine-Pineapple
Agent – Me
Map – 7-eleven
Bow – Nvidia force

There’s a lot of technique to implement such an intelligent agent in order to walk carefully, least costly, and safely. There’s really up to the imagine of programmer.

I will publish our complete game later but right now let’s see what we got so far from the last 2 days of work.
Anyway thanks to my teammates which anekodoll, mochaz, and vuotovoid for their great collaboration so far.

First attack ! Starcraft 2 [Part II]

admin — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 06:43:04 +0000

Let’s continue on this Part II.

For this part, it was all about waiting waiting waiting and waiting !!
Curious about that ? Then I will clarify this for you.

After I was there, my final destination, Zest at Digital Gateway, Siam Square via BTS, I was shock at first to see several gamers waiting at front of the shop !

Let me tell you first the condition.
As Zest announced that there will be only 20 boxes of Collector Edition of Starcraft 2 available today, then first comes first serves.

My purpose today was to get that Collector Edition only and only.
At 8.30 I was in front of Zest shop, I just grasped around and roughly count the number of people there, above 20, this would enough let me not to count no more, my heart went down, my feeling flashed away, and finally I just had no idea what to do next.

I was standing still at that position thinking what should I do next, I had failed at this point. More and more people just flew in in front of the Zest shop waiting to be opened, and the time was 9.00.

I want to make sure that those guys waiting around me aren’t here for Collector Edition, so I asked a nerd computeristic guy near me about that registration for 20 person for Collector Edition.

The answer from him clearly depress me further.

“The registration began at 3.00 AM, and ended around 8.00 AM”, that guy said to me.

How’s come ? How could that be ?
The first comes first serves doesn’t mean the one who comes when the shop still closes right ?
Did anyone mention about that ? Not at all.

I can’t do anything, just to accept it. But my mind was trying to get out of the box, to know what’s really happen.

Fortunately, my white horse came just in time. P’Em (from Skeek Team that won the 1st prize in Software Design, Imagine Cup 2010).
He came with one of his friend, P’Tai, which in fact I thought I could remember him or at least have seen his face once ago in the past.

We started to talk, and this was very great. It delayed time for me not to immediately go home with nothing.
They also targeted for the collector edition, but at this point, they realize they weren’t gonna get it, so they switched to standard edition instead.

“What an easy decision !”, I said to myself.

I decide to wait in the long line just to have a talk with them for a while before I go back home.

But …

You know that as I have talk with them, exchanging the idea of software development, game (especially starcraaft 2′s history), etc, this completely changed my perspective !

I incrementally changed my ego with the only want for that collector edition into standard edition, reduce the karma for what is not going to be reach within today.

We have waited in the very long line for about 3-4 hours. For me, it was one of great waits happened to my life.

Collector Edition can give you everything you targeted for at the first place, but in this case, standard edition, although it cannot give you all your want but it gives you more than that; the different perspective, different opinion, different idea. I have changed in a good way after this happened to me.

In addition, I also have been interviewed by Future Gamer’s staff about feeling and opinion on this event “First Attack !”. I have met much of people whom I knew beforehand.

Thereafter, I got back home with something valuable in my hand included joy along the way.

Till next time my friend, some great events may occur to you soon. It’s up to you whether you wanna grab them or let them slip.

Take care !

First attack ! Starcraft 2 [Part I]

admin — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 15:22:26 +0000

Halloooo you guys,

you won’t believe what I have been today !
I was at “First Attack” the event held at Zest, Digital Gateway, 3rd Floor.

It was a rough and rush hour along the way i got there.
So let begin my journey now.

I woke up at 7.00 AM. and took only 30 minutes to finish taking shower, dressing, and setting up my hair :)
At 7.35, I got in a taxi calling in front of my village. You know what, from the very beginning of calling that taxi, that taxi was going in the different lane I was standing for. After I choke up my hand, that taxi just stop and caused cars behind it to cease as well (ahhhh, this is not the intention from me :( ). Feel so bad at first to make the traffic go to crazy for a very short period of time.

Anyway, I got in. Told him to quickly take me to BTS nearest to my village. The route that I would get is as follows.
- Via Taxi, go to the nearest BTS.
- Via BTS, go to Siam Square Station.

Only 2 passes I need. I must make time, in ideal about 30-45 minutes should be enough, also due to the low-level of traffic in this holiday as well.

This guy, taxi driver, just made me nuts !!
He drove so slow, so I told him “plz be quicker”. Then he laughed, and try to speed up the engine.
I heard the sound from his engine, and it’s so noisy to know that this engine is quite old and not well taking care of.

I don’t want to hurt him by calling him to stop and let me out, then call another taxi. Just go along with him in this time.

Anyway, along the way he drove quicker, very pleased for that man.

Finally I was at the destination I’ve meant for, BTS.
And from this point, it’s no more rough and rush for traffic.

– This concluded part I of my journey today, continue on Part II –
