Fable 2d (revived?)

[nosferatu]

well, it was some time now since the old fable 2d were slipping into the shadows of oblivion, wich were a shame if a giant project like that would just disappear, so i have thought about reviving the project, or at least get some people to do so, i have generated a few screens from a world map and i have created some monsters, + that i am working with a forum that would be up soon,
i hope that some people are interested in having this huge project on their hands,
so please if you have any thoughts or want to help please pm or reply this post ,

You do realize that while using the Mode7 script there are tons of bugs caused on non-mode7 maps (mainly the priority problems) that will make the game pretty much unplayable, right?

 

[nosferatu]

well, as the script is now, yeah.. i know there is lot of bugs and all that, but i do think that the creator of mode 07 will release a release a version without that many buigs in the future, so that the script of the world map will be merged with the actuall gameplay, (when it will be done)?!.

If its mode 7 then its really not 2d, its mediocre 3d.

 

[nosferatu]

...no, it's only the worldmap that is using "mode07" and it's just for viewing purposes, the "real" game will be using the current rpg maker xp camera view

Release that kick-ass earth troll edit.

looks nice but will be super laggy in mode 07, if the script can be improved then it has potential.

Mode7 has obviously had a lot of programming put into it, but it always comes across as so flat -it compresses the landscape on the horizon so houses, mountains, everything looks flat. I think that unless you can edit it to show height in the horizon, you'd be better sticking to a traditional world map.

What ^^^^ said, I was dissapointed with the flat layer two and three so I left it to maybe a later game. I even tried to do it with events and I don't even wanna describe it.
