Are those chipsets from "The Room?"If so, are you sure you're allowed to take those?

[Phayre]

Oh no! Zombies! *hides*
But wait... ooh, Britain! Accents! *loves British accents of all types*
But it sounds like an interesting concept, I suppose. Keep at it, and try not to fall into the usual horror game tropes.

[Dominicy]

If this sucks, I hate you forever.

Nuff said.

EDIT: What's "The Room?" o,O

[Bluhman]

Silent Hill IV: The room.

...There's chip sets made from that game, huh? Or am I misunderstanding you, About?

[aboutasoandthis]

I ended up messing up in two ways. lol

I meant this game. It's a game from the German community called "The Apartment."

I like look at German RPG Maker sites for ideas. The funny thing is that Charas is affiliated with this site.

Now that I think about it, he isn't using the same chipset. Did you make those yourself?

[drenrin2120]

Wow, Foreign games always seem so much more... awesome. =P

[Prpl_Mage]

Really should change the colours on the charsets, they look to bright, otherwise it sounds good for a zombie-shoot-em'-up.

Well I'll just add a picture while I'm at it, Rtp charset 4 a bit darker and less saturation.

---I'm going to relatives for 2 weeks, so project is on hold---
(Don't fret, my mind is never on hold )

@Aboutasoandthis and Bluhman: The chipsets are actually taken from a game my friend scrapped back in 2006, around the time I scrapped mine. They were found on a dead dutch rm2k server, and then customised for use.

@Phayre: Don't worry, I'll kill all the zombies so you are safe
lol where are you getting England from? I AM still searching for a nice place to set York in. And for getting caught in survival/horror cliches, I'll try to keep them low. New and mysterious things can happen in a game with a hidden objective.

@Dominicy: If this sucks, I hate me forever. I've played too many zombie games to have this one suck. I'm aiming high this time because I know I can do it.

@drenrin2120: Yeah, foreign games are awesome, but working with someone from the UK or South America really is interesting. They have different ideas because sources are different in their areas of the world.

@Prpl_Mage: Well, just for the screenshots I used some RTP and Custom Charas mixed. I'll run a lower brightness through the charsets and change some coloring when I get back from relatives.
I am aiming for more a dirty clothing and bloodied clothing effect, and I have some Arcsoft Photostudio tools for that .

I hope that answered everyone.

Ok, if everyone is still interested, I might need a couple of helpers:

2 mappers
1 charset artist
1 midi artist

Sorry for the wait, but I had to take care of my grandmother, she had an eye operation.

[Dominicy]

*raises hand* MIDIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!

Something with this sorta feel work?

[carrionmarksman]

Sure Dominicy, that's a good midi. PM me your email if you want, so we can trade files back and forth and stuff. Welcome to the team!
