  1. The best TV show openings are the ones that you don't always skip when you're having a marathon.

      i love when TV shows make the intro long for the first 2 episodes then shorten it every episode after till the next seasons start.

    Change party in battle

    This may be difficult to do since I'm using Atoa's ATB with Enu's Tankentai side view battle system, but I want to add an option to the battle menu to switch a party member out without using a turn like in FFX. I'm already using Blizzard's party switcher, which I've set up to be called from the pause menu, and it would be cruel to prevent the player from switching out a character and using one that's better for fighting an enemy they didn't know would be there, and couldn't have since it was a random encounter. I also need it to work with Blizzard's party switcher so that characters who are simply disabled for the party temporarily can't be in the party, and characters forced to stay in the party can't be switched out. Here's the party switcher http://forum.chaos-project.com/index.php?topic=116.0 and here's the battle system http://www.gdunlimited.net/scripts/rpg-maker-xp/custom-battle-scripts/sideview-battle-system-tankentai-xp thanks in advance :D
  3. My only game console that's upside down is my Gamecube...

      Does a cube really have an up and a down since a cube is square?

    Hit detection formula

    Thanks, that helps a lot! :D Guess I don't really need to change it then :P And now I know what I'm doing when I change the EVA stat :D

    Hit detection formula

    Don't help while studying then :P I appreciate it though lol

    Hit detection formula

    so... if self.damage = 0 hit = 100 else hit = 100 - eva that's sorta simple i guess, but I still have no idea what good this does lol Thanks anyway :D

    Hit detection formula

    I'm trying to make a custom accuracy formula, but I'm having some problems. For the damage formula I used formulas from commercial games like Disgaea 4 as a reference, but the only thing I can find about accuracy is unhelpful things like "hit chance = 1.2 * (HIT/SPD)" I don't know how to put that into my game at all. Also, I'm confused as to why, in the code, there needs to be a first and second hit detection. Everything seems to work fine when I only use the first one, which comes before the damage formula The first hit detection looks like this: hit_result = (rand(100) < attacker.hit) which i think means, take a random number between 0 and 100. if it is greater than the attacker's hit, then hit_result = true. and then there's this silly thing, which comes after the damage formula: # Second hit detection eva = 8 * self.agi / attacker.dex + self.eva hit = self.damage < 0 ? 100 : 100 - eva hit = self.cant_evade? ? 100 : hit hit_result = (rand(100) < hit) What are the colons and question marks for? I don't get it >.< For critical hits it's easy since I just keep the LUK stat between 0 and 100, but the HIT and SPD stats can be from 1 to 255 Maybe I should use an evasion stat so battlers can attack often, but be easy to hit...
  8. Renaming Melodale to Mellodale because Mellon is the Elvish word for friend in The Lord of the Rings, and I just started working on a sort of mandatory "side" quest called "Elf Friend"

  9. THCoA is now easier...or should be. Someone play it...please.

  10. Added difficulty levels and made it so the player is forced to chose one of each class. this prevents the player from getting stuck on certain parts and forced to restart the game. Expert mode is how the game was before i added the difficulty levels. Hopefully the game is easier now :D The one of each class thing also prevents players from having 3 characters with the exact same stats and skills. Kinda boring huh? Each character levels up at different rates anyway...
  11. There are enough similarities between Kingdom Hearts and Star Wars that, if there is a Star Wars world in Kingdom Hearts, we could easily end up with Darth Sideous summoning heartless. I'm not sure how I feel about that...

    1. Polraudio

      Polraudio

      I bet there will be a star wars world.

  12. I read a sentence about a graph and the first two words that caught my eye were "blue box"...Is there something wrong with me?

  13. A couple of those might work, thanks.
  14. O.o The HD version of FFX looks like a better improvement than the HD version of Kingdom Hearts

      tell me when they make FF12 HD

  15. As you know, I'm working on this click the image to go the topic. And I need some help. I need... -Someone who can give me ideas for map designs/layouts -A battle system tester/balancer -A quest idea thinker upper -Someone who can make NPCs for me, or give ideas at least. -An enemy/boss designer -A dungeon designer -Character appearance designer -Sprites for a few NPCs that look like Elves. NOT short, Santa Elves. -A world map of some description. Shape and location of most things is already decided. -Someone with a small amount of scripting skill. None of these jobs will be you doing anything by yourself of course...except maybe the Elves. I just need help with ideas and someone to help me do some things that I can't seem to get started. Most likely you'll be contributing a small amount and I'll do as much of it as I can. And if anyone wants to help me fix up the prequel, that would be great too. example of someone who helped me: Phionabrie made a city map for me, and I ended up using the same tileset and one of the houses in it, but it mostly just gave me some inspiration, which was all I really needed. Just pm me and we'll talk. I would be grateful for even just that :)
  16. Best movie plot twist ever: Character played by Sean Bean is about to die, but doesn't and survives the whole movie, or finds out he's immortal.

      My brother said: Or he plays a character who's supposed to be immortal, but dies anyway.

  17. http://imgur.com/a/6Zl7k ok, forget my last status. THIS is something I need to share.
  18. I'm honestly surprised that Doctor Who sprites aren't more common around the internet. Or did you not look very hard? Well anyway, I think I'll give it a try... Unfortunately most of us can only do this much spriting. I'm actually kind of proud of this one though :D I actually hadn't read your whole post, so I almost made a green one for 11 too, and posted both. Good thing I read it, because I didn't want to lol :P And I have 1 tip for you, if you can call it a tip: Don't spam catch-phrases. If The Doctor says Brilliant, Fantastic(for 9), or Sorry (or even "well") all the time, that's fine, because he does anyway, but an overused catch-phrase like Allons-y would get annoying fast. The best catch-phrases are usually just a line that sorta sticks with the character and people like it so much they use it again. It's usually not meant to be a catch-phrase. I would love to see a good "what!?" scene though :P if that's too small or something weird happens, use this. it was uploaded to this site instead of imgur, like this other one
  19. Can't help with sprites, but I can say that I don't think the show would work well as any kind of game, but I hope you can pull it off. Good luck :D
  20. Guys, get in chat, we're talking about tacos

    1. Marked

      aww i missed it :(

  21. Yea, that's always been there and everyone gets it at some point. I think it happens when your internet slows down, so the chat thinks you logged out, but you didn't so it logs you back in...a second time. Used to happen to me all the time while I had multiple tabs open while in chat. It was even in the old chat, long before GDU. Maybe Mark just doesn't know how to fix it...or can't. :\ At least it's better than when the old chat just randomly booted you instead sometimes for having slow internet. I almost miss that chat, all the bugs just sort of added to this site feeling like an internet home :P
  22. editing posts in the script section and clicking save takes me to a page that doesn't exist, even though the edit was still saved. I just need to go back to the page manually.
