  • Finally preparing to build a small game. What sucks is I have to figure out what scripts i need which means digging through 4 gigs of RPG Maker files and resources....
    A dwarven cleric of Kord....I'm wondering how odd that seems...

    A dwarf as a cleric? I don't think its odd really. Dwarves must follow religions to, why wouldn't they have priests and holy man as well.

    no, i mean a dwarf as a follower of Kord over Moradin. lol. thats the odd part.

    Oh.
    In a single player dungeon Crawler game would it sense to make legendary equipment/item drops? I mean, they kinda mean more in MMO based games, but I'm kinda curious of the notion.

    I know dungeon crawlers, but small/not major... uh, well... I programmed a (messy) randomizing dungeon system for mine. >.>


    The original Phantasy Star Online didn't really count as an MMO - the lobby was the closest thing to massive. It had rare drops off ob mobs that were specific to that mob that could be used to craft (in your case exchange maybe?) specific gear. For instance, a bear-like creature dropped an arm. It could be crafted into a weapon for the character that looked like one of its arms. You could likely event some kind of item exchange process. Don't forget to check for the item in the character's inventory, though.


    Just my little suggestion; no clue if it is helpful.

    I dont see why not. Having powerful or unique items randomly appear can spice up the game.

    This is not really the subject matter for Status Updates which are more a casual way to share your random thoughts or bits of information.


    Perhaps it would be better to start a thread in General Discussion if you want to get ideas on this.
    So what does a Thesaurus eat for breakfast? A synonym roll. :p

    Thats a pretty good joke, but may I suggest "what does a Verbivore eat for breakfast?"

    I don't know, what does it eat?

    verbivore is another name for a Logophile, which is just a big word for a person who is into words. Someone who consumes words.


    Like me. :p
    I wish my old friends on here were around still. I miss talking to them.

    Motivation I guess to go and make some new ones; plenty of cool people around now you might not know.

    Assuming you made efforts to keep in contact with them and they failed.. you can and will always find new and amazing friends to fill voids that old ones leave.

    easy... buy some new ones!
    Tonight's bedtime paradox:


    If pinocchio were to say, "My nose will now grow", will his nose grow? Note, his nose will only grow if he is lying, so if he says it will grow, knowing that it doesn't just grow, it would grow because he would be, in affect, telling a lie. However, since it does grow he would then be telling the truth thereby nullifying the statement as a lie. This would mean he told the truth, to which his nose would not grow. However, if his nose did not grow after he said it would he would then be lying, which would make his nose grow in response. I assume you all can see the circular cause and effect on this one. :)

       A lifetime's worth of Disney movies tells me that what would most likely happen then is his nose would grow for lying, only to rapidly distend back into his face as that lie is proven true effectively clocking him unconscious for turning his odd karma into a paradox.


       By the way, loving the bedtime paradoxes. Keep them up!

    be careful wizard, too much paradoxes will put your brain in a loop.

    I miss all the people i used to chat with. Dekita is MIA, Dark is MIA, all the people who ever messaged me are all MIA. Where did everybody go? I couldn't have been the glue to keep them here. That wouldn't make sense...

    That's going to make it harder to tell him that he didn't renew his domain name. There was a script I was considering using on there - perhaps I'm fortunate in not remembering what it was.
    Wyn Wizard
    Wyn Wizard
    wait what? who didn't renew what domain name?
    taarna23
    taarna23
    Dekita didn't renew his. It was dekyde.com or some such.
    Anyone see dekita around recently? if you have, could you please send him my way? The student would like to meet back up with his teacher.
    You know what would be awesome? A script system that would allow users to use saved data from a previous installment of a game (much like the Dragon Age games) so that games made in the RPG Maker studios could be sequenced in something like episodes or sequals. Now, if such a system exists, I would love to see the code behind it. This srcipter in training is back on the horse!

    There are significant implications on the game design when you have to accommodate players with old saves and new players at the same time.


    Remember to version you saves. Good luck with your scripting~

    oh i know the difficulty of the project. im not even there yet. im gonna try to revive my old script engine actually.

    It is fun, and there's that great feeling when you get it to work to boot.
    I wonder if anyone still remembers me. and if VX Ace is still a relevant format since the new MV....
    Vox Novus

    I recall seeing your name but I don't think we ever had any real interactions. Definitely lots of people still using Ace, I'm using it at the moment and I can name a handful of others that do as well; Celianna just had her latest addition to her ancient dungeons tileset released which was formatted for the vx/ace tilesize, so resources are even still being supported.

    I'm still using Ace because I find it more stable atm, and because it still has by far the greatest range of resources, both graphics and scripts.
    Current project - an RPGMaker-like program in C#, but completely different. Cause I have a different idea on how the UI should work and I know C# better. That, and I just cannot seem to grasp the main concepts of RGSS3

    I tried to write such a program back in 2000, got as far as a rough inventory and monster database.

    I know its gonna be hard but I found a tutorial called XNA GPA. so far its kinda like RPG maker, but in a different programming language.
    i've been rethinking a lot of life and some of its aspects. I'm not sure i like what i see or if i'm just seeing things differently. Either way, it doesn't look good.

    I am in my exact situation right now. I just learn to brush it off. Might not work for everyone.

    There's a lot that you'll find that you don't like, and for good reason, but remember that there's nothing binding you to follow those bad examples, and if you're willing to put yourself far enough out there you can even change some of what disgusts you.

so hopefully tomorrow i get to go home from the hospital i've been here for 5 days already and it's driving me mad. I miss my family like crazy but at least I get to use my own toiletries and my own clothes. My mom is coming to visit soon i can't wait to see her cause i miss her the most. :kaojoy:
Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
