    Ah, I stand corrected; Naughty Dog didn't kill off Ellie. That part of the leak was wrong.
    "Oh, hooray! In a lifetime of evil, at least Naughty Dog didn't add Bury Your Gays to the list."

    Still not touching that game with a sixty-foot pole, though.

    I honestly don't understand why so many people are so emotionally worked up. Yeah, it sucks, I really liked the first game, and the leaks (well, spoilers now I guess) show me explicitly that the game wasn't for me and so I have no interest in it. It's as if it didn't exist, I'm not buying it, and I'm not patronizing ND period for their blatant abuses of copyright law and the like. That's all you can do.

    Give them your ire and you gain nothing, and honestly, considering the overtones of TLOU2's story I believe that our ire was what the developers (at least the main ones, obviously not the ones who quit in protest or spoke up and got fired or whatever) wanted in the first place. Thematically, it is a nihilistic rant designed to make you feel bad about feeling anything but bad. It bludgeons you with it.

    @Philosophus Vagus Oh, I'm not mad-- not mad at the game itself, anyway (ND mistreating the devs, however, yeah no, they're getting my ire for that, whether they want it or not). tbh I feel smug satisfaction that the game's getting panned, exclusively because I'm tired of "grimdark" in general.
    FirestormNeos
    What's that? The edgy grimdark zombie apocalypse game made by a company that crunches its workers isn't any good?



    tbh y'all shoulda bought resident evil instead.

    Cut off some of her fingers and used flimsy reasoning to make her act out of character. The zombies don't even play a major role in the game anymore, they're just a bit of nuisance. I didn't love the first game like some did, but I did enjoy the opening sequence where you got to play through the start of the apocalypse.

    How did they bury the lgb character exactly? Pretty sure the first trailer was mostly focused on Ellie and her girlfriend kissing wasn't it?

    Or was the speculation that people had about a certain character which Naughty dog specifically denied wasn't quite so speculative after all?

    Posting this as a status because it's just a passing idea that wouldn't work with the current project I'm working on: turn-based RPG where the first half is making four characters-- picking their classes, customizing their name/appearance, and getting them to max level individually in some kind of open world, and the second half is you having all four members joining together to take on several dungeons.

    Wish there was a way to set up VX Ace/MV so that every time I start a new project, the specific things that I do with EVERY single new project I start (examples: remove escape's RNG chance to fail, remove surprise/preemptive, remove how Luck stat messes with the application of states instead of just the bandaid solution of setting everyone's luck to 1, etc.) is just done automatically upon the project's creation.

    I do what Avery suggests. Or make a copy of your old project, clean out the extra stuff and then you got your changes already too.

    For the MV you can go to the root folder and change on the standard scripts/plugins 'n data json. For the Ace you can create a default project with the setup, then copy every rvdata2 to the root folder

    Those solutions are... acceptable tbh

    I'm very lucky that the test project I'm working on for MV takes place in a dreamland that's seperate from the rest of the continuity of my "series," because these default enemy sprites do not fit AT ALL with the general aesthetic I typically go for.

    @Black Pagan "tHaT's JuSt A lAmE eXcUsE" What do you want me to do? Rip the assets out of VX Ace and put them in the MV project?

    It wasn't an excuse; it was a complaint. Big difference there, buddy.

    After "careful" consideration, I bought MV on steam since it's on sale. Let the cycle of "inspiration -> obsession -> burnout -> banish the poor project to the fiery depths of purgatory" begin anew!

    Good on you! I'm currently in the 'sabotage' phase of working on a project, just about to pit stop for a little post-project-depression and then, finally, back to inspiration. It's nice to have structure ^^

    Which means that hacks like using full screen sized pictures with transparent space is a no-no. Keep everything by the power of 2 or divisible by 2, so graphics cards won't freak out and make your images blurry and so forth. Also, stick with the latest version. Most should work on 1.6.1 and 1.6.2

    4/5 random strangers I asked on the Internet agreed MV is a better source of fiber than VX Ace. So clearly you should get it. :LZSwink:

    There are several threads in Product Discussion and Support which examine this. They have far more information than can be given in short comments. I suggest you check there.
    Please do not use Status Updates to ask Support questions, that is not their purpose.

    The default one hurts my eyes., both it and it's recolor are also a bit weird to use.. Thankfully RMW-Lighttheme is basically the secret savior, far and away the best of the three. Though it would be fantastic if RMW-Darktheme existed.

    I use the dark theme, but am not impressed any more by the other ones. Not to mention, at night, which is my usual time during a night shift, light themes hurt my eyes, so I use dark themes almost exclusively.

Oh look, 12 more free Daz3D models. *adds them to his collection * Yes, the fools... Give it a few months and my collection will be crazy, all without paying a dime. I still have no idea if I'll ever learn the software, but hey... Just in case, these models are quite expensive. In two weeks, they've already given me almost $400 worth of free models. :LZSexcite:
