Hm. I tried to upload the demo of Eternal Night (not at all tiny at 63 MB), and it hasn't shown up. I'll try again.

Hmm... the opening song to Vision of Escaflowne (that's the Japanese version, NOT the American one) has always been a fave of mine. Ditto Lum No Love Song, the original opening theme to Urusei Yatsura.

Well, it took a bit longer than I planned, but I now have a demo of the first bit of Eternal Night! I will here note that combat isn't well-balanced, especially at the higher levels, as yet-- I'll go back and do that later. For now, I'm hoping for feedback, and for people to tell me about bugs that I missed...

Path by Apocalyptica. Really, almost anything by Apocalyptica. Heavy Metal cello quartets rock.

I'm more of a Mercury kind of guy, myself.

Unfortunately, my Spanish has degenerated to the point where it's almost all work-related, and that's no good for this.

Welcome... we're getting a lot of new people lately, aren't we? I guess I'd better go finish up that demo of Eternal Night.

Welcome aboard. And don't sweat being n00bish-- I don't mind answering very basic questions.

Welcome. Don't sweat the English-- esta una lingua loca.

Welcome! (My plan is working-- soon, I won't be The New Guy!)

Welcome aboard!

Boy, it's hard to pick-- at this moment, by whim, I'll mention Justy Ueki Tylor from Irresponsible Captain Tylor, Bareho from Kishin Corps, and Xellos from Slayers. But there's lots more.

Those would need to be events, of course, but it's a good idea. Or you could do the same thing with a fog, and reduce lag.

Why do marriages have to happen in a given church? Nobody's saying that they do-- and there are any number of churches that will happily perform gay marriages. But you can get married at a city clerk's office, and lots of folks do.

There's a lot of freedom in what size you make the pictures-- your major problem is going to be editing out the background, but that can be done with a little bit of patience. As for size... well, honestly, that's up to you. Resizing works, after all. Try a few different sizes and see what you like.

In general, I'd like to find more resources for this program. Does anyone know where to find anything for it?

Welcome aboard! Mind the spammers!

Welcome aboard.

Hippo Birdy Two Ewe!

It's a link to the exact same site as the last PM.

You've got the Condition set to Turn 1. That's only going to check the first turn of the battle. Try changing it to turn 1 + 1.

Happy Easter!

Like muzrinkl?

I'm a little vague about what, exactly, this game would be about. Naruto, yes, but how? At what point in the story? Which characters would it follow? What would the plot line be?
