Telepathy duh. . .

thats how your mouth moves when you text to talk, LoZ people are always on Facebook

Funny thing is, in Dragon's Dogma, their mouths move but dont match the words. So, point here is this... Mouth not moving with words coming out is much better than the mouth moving, but not matching.

I should probably be starting an external devblog, now that I think about it.

Which one takes less MB and is easier to make?

Pre-rendered 3D handrawn maps.

And... yeah, I forgot to mention that it was made in RPGMXP.

It's been a long time in the making, now. I've heard of it, and seen a few videos.

They put so much effort into it, but the end result is that it didn't seem to sell well. It had some amazing character designs, too.

I'd expect it to be about $15. I've paid more for less.

I was thinking $6, since I don't expect people to pay much for something that they have no expectations for. There will be a demo, of course, but it'll only serve as a "try before you buy" sort of thing and not an early beta release.

Unless the game is of lesser quality I wouldn't go under $11.99


This is because people will assume it's bad otherwise. If it was 10 hours the price would scale down to about $9.99 In other words, don't sell yourself short unless you have no confidence in your ability.

...Hrm I put up a comment but it doesn't look like it went, haha. I like the first design, but I like the markings on the head in the second one better. Is there any way to combine them? And what do you use to color these, by the way?

I do the shading in greyscale after the linework using MyPaint, then I use the Color brush function in GIMP, followed by the Burn brush function using a very light grey over the whole image.


The first design will probably have tattoos added later.

I like the first one a lot.

Decided not to use this design for the person it was intended for. Maybe I'll use it for something else, though.

And by defaultly, I mean "with knowledge of the engine's programming language" which I already have from working with a similar system.

I am an evil person


It's to encourage people to at least attempt to map certain areas or show off battle concepts haha

But no they're not really necessary, if you check other project threads, some of them don't have screens.

Oh, you! Maybe I should post an Early Project Feedback thread...

Yeah sure, but you need to make tons of script to prove yourself as a scripter.

I only bothered learning it for five scripts for one project, though, so it's not like I'm going to be posting helpful scripts all around the forum or anything now.

Grats!

Oh, there's definitely a way. But that wasn't your question, so I'm not telling how.

How logical of you!

This sounds awesome. o.o; I have no suggestions, but I wish you luck.

Have each event keep a pointer to it's current hitbox, and make collision checks pull relative coordinates from the hitbox image. After that, scaling is just an extra bit of division when checking relative coordinates.

"Collision," by the way, is defined in this system as at least one pixel of a hitbox overlapping with another pixel from a different hitbox that isn't being applied to the same actor.

If I can figure out some way to do it, I'll save myself the trouble of having to use Map IDs to control passability by just defining room boundaries as hitboxes and changing the way player movement works.

I'm thinking of using blue to represent passive hitboxes (ones that can't attack, but can be attacked), red for active hitboxes (ones that can attack and be attacked. Priority determines the winner if both happen at the same time), and green for walls on maps.
