Yet, ANOTHER project

[X-F3R]

aight.. i don't know what to use for a title yet (very hard for me cuz i have to relate the name with the game.. no.1 rule.. and even tho my english +SOUNDS+ fluent, i still lack a few meanings of a few words.. i DON'T and WON'T bother to look at a dictionary so plz, don't start telling me to do so. i like learning on my own when if comes to these things) but i'm using resources that are already made to speed up the progress of the game. making original resources is really hard.. and VERY time comsuming. well, of course you can make one tile for a chipset every 2 mins (I CAN! LOL) but you'll have to look at it, re-adjust some stuff and ask someone else if it's ok or not.. so.. making original stuff IS time consuming..

well, for now, i won't be revealing much.. that's actually not the reason why i started this topic. i just wanted to ask if [bold]Rowan and Reain_ could be the Beta-Testers of my game?[/bold] why them? i just trust them.. why not any of the mods/admin? well, they busy.. and Rowan and Reain_? they're making their games, hell yeah they have time! lol..

all i could reveal now is:
It's about Vamps, as mentioned in Reain_'s topic, "Squirell".
7 characters. 3 die or gets their energy drained (donno which i should choose.. it's part of the main story..)
4 humans, 3 vamps.. yeah.. the 3 vamps die or get their energy drained..
The hot-seats for the title is:
Vampire Blade (a weapon of the game.. wehehe)
any opinions of the name are welcome as long as it makes sense (lol! just being cautious, i don't mean to insult anyone)
and the last thing i have to reveal is:
I DON'T KNOW OR CARE IF THERE IS A GAME LIKE THIS! I'M STILL MAKING IT EITHER WAY! MWAHAHA MWAHAHA MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! lol..

X [btw, Rowan, Reain_, if you want me to be your beta-tester, then you have my assurance that i WILL try to help you on your games [story] if i have anything in store!]

[Rowan]

I'll gladly Beta-Test your game! Also You can Beta-Test mine as well but only until I FINALLY get to the end of Chapter 1 (Sorta like disc one) Of my Game. Here's my AOL E-mail: Mario1080@aol.com Just send the game through E-mail or by Web Site if you feel more comfortible! And yes! I do have PLENTY of time to do something for someone! If anyone Else want me to BT their game just Send me a PM about it!

alright.. i have to do  lot of re-writing because i've just been inspired by medieval war.. that vampire bit can just be a side-quest..

the PC which had my project was formatted without me being notified. i've started a new one, writing a new storyline, flushed my old one down the toilet.

it's also inspired by Suikoden, but you won't be getting 108 people.. just about 8-18 not sure yet..

i'm just planning this out just like suikoden II, as in, if you look through Riou's eyes, they are the good guys. and if you look through Jowy's eyes, they too, are are not the bad guys.

i'm having a hard time on how this war started in my project..

anyways, latest updates:
Facesets: Roco
Chipsets: Mac and Blue
Rest of the Graphics: Various Artists
Music: Various Games/Artists

as you can see, this project should be a lot easier compared to my untitled project due to the fact that i am trying to make my own original graphics for it. maybe i'll just abandon it.. or leave it in store until i have more free time..

anyways, the hero's a mercenary who's hired by Eldamore Knights (is that name taken?) and then was blamed by the Eldamore Knights for slaughtering their men and then the Kingdom of Eldamore charges the Hero with treason. he meets up with bandits, who are allies with another Kingdom.. i forgot what i named it..anyways, he eventually joins up with them since he has no where else to go.

from here, i have no idea what to do.. i'm still thinking, taking a break by making maps, playing C&C:Generals, WC3.. etc etc..

help or advise is welcome. if you demand too much then i suggest you don't post anything here

btw, apologies to both Reain_ and Rowan, the demo of my previous game was almost finished.. but then.. haiz.. sorry guys!

[Reain_]

ahh man thats to bad you lost your other game you should get a re-write disk and save your stuff on that (thats what i do also alows me to work on it on other computers)

well any way
this new game of yours sounds great i've played sukioden 1 but havent played 2 yet and i got 3 for christmas (but havent gotten far) as far as what you should do next i have no idea i wish i could help but im spacing out right now my mind is clear of ideas except for my 4 games that im working on they were the only ones that i found a story line for (ok back on subject)
well i hope your new game is good and i cant wait to test this one out the only thing i could sugest is at least have 6 characters thats pretty good cuz any less isn't that fun (but if you could 108 is fine lol j/k i think my FFTNB has about 50 characters)

well see ya soon

[X-F3R]

..yeah.. 6 people for the DEMO only.. XD

anyways, all i can give out right now are screenshots of towns.. one of them is a city which is like. 100x100.. lol..

and also, you better let your better testers try your game before you release your demo thats the most effective way to release a good game/demo! =P

[Rowan]

That's awful X-F3R! You have a point there about letting people Beta-Test your game before you put out a DEMO! I'll be looking forward in Beta-Testing your game later on!

[X-F3R]

thnx! i hope i won't disappoint u.. i'm gonna be on my way to college soon.. =\ then after a few years, get a job and then help charas out =P

anyways, a little update on a few minor stuff..

Made By RM2K3
max level 99(duh) but the HP of characters won't go over 999. max mp 999 aswell. i like it that way plus, having a final boss with over 10000 HP against the heroes -999 HPs would be VERY challenging. i'm doing a lot of calculation on this and that so that everything wouldn't be too hard nor too easy.

[Mikagami]

Good. Can I beta-test your game too?

[X-F3R]

well.. ummm.. to tell you the truth, it's hard to say no.. but here are a few rules for my beta-testers:

i've got to know them pretty well

that's pretty much it.. well, aside from those, i expect them to give fair comments on it and how can i improve it.

so yeah.. it's still hard to say no, but it still ain't a yes.. i still havent said no tho =P

i don't mean any offense whatsoever, Mikagami. it's just i'm choosing in a very strict manner.

[X-F3R]

soo for dual posting ,but here's a screenie of the city i mentioned. it's in 1/8 view cuz it's 102x104, including the backwalls and the sidewalls. =3= meaning the whole ground thingy is 100x100

[Kijuki_Magazaki]

Nice pic! And nice town too. or City

[Mikagami]

Cool town, but isn't 100 x 100 to big?

[X-F3R]

thnx. it's a city. i've played suikoden over and over and over and over and i just compared that one to Muse and Gregminister. i didn't mix the 2 together, i swear. i just wanted to add that "Midieval (sp?)-Peaceful" town. i've also played Age of Empires, watched Midieval-based movies like Lord Of The Rings.

that's how i wanted it, to be frank i've made it in 3 different sizes and that one gave me that most satisfactory result. the other 2, i deleted it.

oh yeah.. if you wanna get across from the entrance/exit of the city to the city library, it takes about 15 seconds.. lol..
