Does anyone have a system for naming things? Like People, or monsters, or worlds, or places in general? I am so lacking creativity, and was wondering if anyone had a system. One of my friend's systems, which I hate is rearranging letters from a normal word. For the name of a castle He Said Castle Elsact. (Castle rearranged) Got any others?

VXAce Support forum is for 'How do I do this?' sort of questions.  It's for specific problem-solving, rather than a discursive look at some general aspect of game making.

Therefore

I've moved this thread to General Discussion. Please be sure to post your threads in the correct forum next time. Thank you. 

EDIT

Except that - embarrassingly - it doesn't seem to have moved.  I shall have to get this sorted out.

You can always use an online name generator. If it's for like a medieval or fantasy type of game, Wizard's of the Coast has one here:

I go with names that just come to me, or if I just want one that I like the sound of, I mix letters together until something forms. Then I make sure it's not some sort of foul-meaning word via google search. I started adding the search to the method after seeing a few people put together words without realizing they had a...dirty/terrible meaning. Luckily haven't come up with a foul word myself.  :rock-right:

How many parameters is 'too many'??
Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such? No-one c
So I was playing with filters and this looked interesting...

Versus the normal look...

Kind of gives a very different feel. :LZSexcite:
To whom ever person or persons who re-did the DS/DS+ asset packs for MV (as in, they are all 48x48, and not just x2 the pixel scale) .... THANK-YOU!!!!!!!!! XwwwwX
