Yeah, I tried to use pieces that wasn't in the VX RTP just for that purpose... o.o The RTP isn't even all there, just bits and pieces and what's there looks amazing. Even if I can't understand a single bit of it because I'm Japanese iliterate. They have a lot of new stuff in there, most of which I haven't seen yet.

Actually, that is a good question! I'm almost afraid to ask... I was happy with what I heard, then, began to play around with it. For once, you have a shadow pen, it doesn't erase anything placed, nor does it take up room in your graphics. :crazy:

I do love how clean everything looks, plus the new graphics look amazing... :blank: I'm only baffled as to when I turned into such a graphic whore?
 
Hey MigratoryEagle, neat graphics there! Love the battle screenshot, sort of gives off a Red Dead Redemption out-in-the-woods-holy-crap-it's-a-freaking-bear feel to it.
 
Uh, perfect as always, although house should have pillars moved 1 tile down, I think.

PS. Can you give me tileset with that house? It would really fit in my game.
 
Finally have something I can "show." Still don't have anything releasable, but i'm slowly getting there. A few more things need to be done with the Number field, how numbers are typed in, as well as the increment buttons still need to be inserted, but that is next on my list of things to do.

EDIT: I got the Number Field working perfectly. here is an updated screenshot:


The width of the field is determined by the maximum value the field can accept.

Next step: creating a popup window so that my Change Maximum button will work.
 
"What's going on, Authur? Why do I have to close my eyes? That man is hurting that lady! We have to save her!"

Ahahaha I died laughing, thanks for making my day MigratoryEagle! btw awesome graphics, they're practically flawless! Dang JD Slasher, you've improved alot over the years!

I'm developing my own world map in XP, most of it is still an early WIP. I'm trying to incorporate as much of nature as I can (different dirts, grasses, trees, mountains, bodies of water, etc), but I've only got a few basics so far. I think alot of it still looks kinda shoddy, but I'll get to it!
 
hey Eagle those are some nice screen shots, Im liking the sprites and mapping you have there keep it up do you have a project thread or site for it yet!?

Dude i love this, i know you said its a wip but i really love it as is!
 
Tuna: love your interfaces. They're always very clear cut and easily readable.

I'm having trouble with making a message box which "pops out" making it clear it's a message box. I could just use js alert but that sort of detracts from the game a bit.

How's

Awesome Bro

Amy's Pond: Thanks! :biggrin: You could try adding a shadow to the message box. If it's a really important message you could always fade the rest of the play area by overlaying a transparent dark-colored fill. e.g.

It has to be you, because you're putting words in Steve Urkel's mouth. Unless this is a reference I'm missing (and probably plenty of others will too). I guess, though, that it's probably not as big of a deal here than it would be for a larger public figure, where crazy media people would make a big deal out of it and the "important" black people (you know, the ones that are somehow supposed to represent all African Americans everywhere) would denounce you and demand an apology. Here it's just possible you'll get flamed.

Really? Is everyone at Rockstar Games a black guy? You know, the company that created a GTA game that uses the "N-word" God knows how many times?

Honestly, if the character is black, and it fits the scene, I don't see the problem. You guys are too uptight.
 
...let's drop that, because I was trying to be uptight to represent the rest of the world in a half-sarcastic fashion, and as I started to qualify my reasoning it got a little out of hand.
 
Acceptable use of the term is based not on whether you have privileges but whether it has a legitimate reason to be there. Personally I don't find STEVE URKEL SAID NIGGA LOL IM HILARIOUS at all amusing because the entire punchline seems to be that Steve Urkel said nigga. I like my humor to be clever. Honestly, if you're not good at humor, don't try to write it; no jokes are a LOT better than bad jokes. I know I'm not good at writing humor, so I don't set out to write things that are hilarious.

Dude, it was one line. And you don't even know the context of it. Steve Urkel is a black guy, Steve Urkel said "nigga", legitimacy confirmed. Black people use the word among themselves, and part of writing a believable black character is use of that word.

It has nothing to do with racism or whatever, he didn't use the word in his game to be hurtful, he used it to make the character believable and for comedy. Whether you think it's funny or not is not the point because you are not the standard of what's funny and what isn't. Others may think it's funny.

Don't forget humor is based on opinion. You might laugh about stuff I think is stupid and vica versa. Sure there are bad jokes in general, but this is not one of them.
