@strawberry
as well as adding a border to the face, you should also consider something like a gradient for the background instead of just plain white.
otherwise though, looking very good.

So much work needs to be done in figuring out this UI. There's just no comparison out there unfortunately because this is so different to traditional games and apps.

It would be very easy to just shove in a menu with Shop, Friends, etc - but I don't want to do that because...Uh...Actually I might just do that! Seems to be the right answer now that I think more and more about this.

Sadly, that's a placeholder track, it's heir of grief.

If you meant the songs I embedded, wasn't me, it was composed by my good friend Jake "Moneymenace" Gamelin, who has been the CCC's lead composer since mid 2014.
Speaking of him, he did do a REALLY good track recently.

Here's the OST for Intel so far.

I actually have no trouble believing that.

Despite being released, I'm still making warranted changes and additions to I314... coming in the complete GOTY edition will be some new optional bosses, the ending I linked a portion of some pages ago, the finished OST (still being worked on), the updated battle sprites (which you can see in the video following) and some map revamps.

Trying to get back to Ghost Shards and mapping our tiles for VX ACE.

This place almost looks like a real thread! Hopefully I'll be posting some pictures soon of my RMMV project. :biggrin:

Just finished making adjustments on my menu for Odyssey, I'm satisfied with how it turned out. The middle window makes the players equipment readily available, so the player can switch items with ease. Highlight the selected weapon, and press the desired weapon button to equip it. The player graphic in the menu will change to reflect the currently equipped items. Any feedback is welcome!

 

[Juan J. Sánchez]

I'm glad to see the project is still alive! It would be awesome to get a project update.

 

[coyotecraft]

It's too homogeneous. There's no hierarchy of information. Everything has an icon, and everything is the same type.
You can't tell the Menu options apart from the Item list, the Equipment Slots, or the Game Stats.

I mean, they're separated by windows. And We know, from experience, how to make heads-or-tails of it. But visually there needs to be a greater degree of separation. You can change size and color for some things, lose the icon for others. Use a different typeface for Item Names, Descriptions, or OPTIONS.(all caps is style choice too)

That is always bugged me when I noticed Japanese games had made use of Kanji, katakana, hiragana, and English characters. But the localisation sets everything to English and they don't do much with the code , so we get this flat sameness.

 

[ZenVirZan]

I feel like it needs some depth. Also dont be afraid to use different font sizes + bolding & italics to help things flow

Spoiler: literally minute edit

oop went overkill with the dimming but you get the rough idea

 

[Ace of Spades]

Thank you for the solid suggestions guys! I like the idea of adding headers and trying different fonts for the menu options and game stats. I also like the dimmed window example you showed Zen, I might try something similar. Juan, I wish I had more to show off at this point, but I'll be preparing a new thread when the time comes.

Heres two Animated Gifs for a Script that Im working on...

The maps are pretty basic. Im focused on the quality of the Lighting Effects in both images.

Sadly, the script is not stable enough for release. If anyone is familiar enough with C++ to help out, please let me know on this thread. I dont want to derail this thread, although feedback on the Light Effects is more than welcome!

That forum is pretty hard to read. What exactly is the problem you're having?

Unfortunately, this board doesn't have a section that matches RGSS DLL programming support. There's the extending RPG Making forum, for projects in this category that aren't seeking support, there's programming board for general programming issues and RGSS support for script support.

Extending RPG Maker
RGSS Script Support
Programming & Web

Either make a thread about your script/lighting engine in Extending RPG Maker, requesting support at the end of it, or post the problem in the Programming & Web board. RGSS Support may be half-way the right place to go, but the problem itself likely has nothing to do with RGSS (but there is a chance).

I've done a lot of stuff with RM Bitmaps, specifically this project which adds OpenGL 3D Rendering into RPG Maker VX Ace. I can probably help you.
