Dead Content DVT: Season 1 Finished.

[Granas3 REMIXED]

Will this one do? I didn't make it, nor am i 100% sure how works. The way it is set up now will pause when the player presses "a" on the keyboard, although it is called X in the script for some reason.

It would need to be fixed up... because the way it is right now, it completely screws up the images and the tint screen events... i don't know why... I mean it works, it pauses the game, but if paused at the wrong time, it will screw things up. For domain it does anyway


Thanks for the help though. It's much appreciated.

Just saw the new layout for the website and it looks fantastic. ^^ Very neat and clean but still with an interesting design. I especially like the new character lists--a little more organized than the images you were using before. Looking forward to the next episode! I also have to watch those remakes soon.

EDIT:
Also, I've had the error that Firestalker mentioned before (the one with Dragon on the bridge), but like him, I thought it was just my own computer because no one else seemed to have that problem, so I never brought it up. I just skipped to the next scene and kind of assumed that he fell off. =P Don't know what could be the error, though, if only certain people are getting it.

 

[Speedpaws]

The forums been slow lately so it double posted my last post. sorry :-/

 

[Speedpaws]

Everyone should know that episode 2 and 3 the new versions are finished and uploaded. I'll be honest, not much has changed. However, people can watch it without needing RTP. Also, if anyone finds any errors, let me know =) Though hopefully my betatesters found them all XD Anyway Episodes 4 and 5 will be released sometime soon I hope.

Also, a minisode is in the works. It's going quite well. Just letting people know the end of season 1 will be finished by september 24 XD So be ready for new episode releases coming soon.

 

[Erichermit]

Glad to be a betatester here by the way. I love the way the new episodes are. The new graphics and animations really give it a much more unique feel

 

[Reives]

Yup, the panoramas are the main difference I think. I liked the sniping scene in Ep. 5, was quite a nice touch.

 

[Speedpaws]

Right now I want to get peoples opinions. What would you say if I created domain episodes with voice actors? Would that be something people would be interested in? Being able to hear the characters and not having to read?

Also, if I did decide to make a voice acting version, would anyone want to be a voice actor?

This is all just an idea, but I want opinions.

KEEP THE TEXT DIALOGUE! Sorry for the Caps. lol. I'm a deaf RPG player... and I largely prefer all the RPGs that deal with textual dialogue in cutscenes, normal chat, etc.

So if you must add voiceovers, by popular opinion, please try to keep the text in there as well.

Thanks

 

[Speedpaws]

haha I would have two different versions. One with text and one without. or maybe i would create options in the episodes that you could turn on voiceovers and text or keep one on and one off, just an idea, but thanks for the opinion. =)

 

[Calibre]

I'd seriously not bother with the voice acting. There are way too many problems with it. What will you do if a voice actor quits half way through? How about if two voice actors recording quality massively differs between dreadful and perfect? The filesize will jump up from what it is. Text can always be read sensibly but if the voice acting is bad it can kill a scene.

If games like FFX struggle to get it right, then an amateur game is likely to struggle to get it right too.

That is my personal opinion.

 

[Reives]

Agreed with Calibre. And since this it a text-heavy project, the amount of work to produce one episode will be unnecessarily immense.

 

[Sapphire_pt]

Man, this game is great. Love the story and it reminds me about my first RPG story. But your story is much better than my first RPG :P
Love the Episodes ideia.
Continue the good work

 

[Speedpaws]

Thanks guys for the input =) Just though I would give you an update on episode 7, I will be releaseing episode 7 with episode 6 this coming friday. So stay tuned for more action XD

 

[Reives]

Congradulations on PotM. Have fun finishing up ep. 7.

 

[Thundergod]

I walked into this series expecting not to like it, but it's actually very good.
I like the story and want to see what happens next(Only on episode 3 now)

 

[Speedpaws]

Thanks =) Yeah I try to do my best to make it something people enjoy =)

 

[Euphony]

Ooh, congrats on PotM! Looking forward to settling down and watching the new episodes after a long annoying week of school. =P Can't wait to see where you take the story now after all the new explanations in the previous episode.

 

[Speedpaws]

I'm still hoping to get episode 7 out this friday, however, my parents, being stupid as they are, have taken away my computer usage saying "you need to do more around the house" but i have my laptop in my room, so hopefully ill be able to finish it on my laptop :-/

I thought I could wait for Speedpaws to say something about the next episodes, but since he's quite silent these day, I decided to bump this thread. It's quite useless since if Speedpaws hasnt finished yet, it wont change anything. But I want him to know that there are many people who are waiting for the next chapter, so, at least provide some information for us to know that this project is not dead (hopefully ^ ^")
