Title: Wheel of Time--My rpg
Post by: doomdude15 on August 05, 2005, 02:28:31 PM: The Wheel of Time turns and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to Myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the age that gave it birth returns again. In the Third Age, an Age of Prophecy when the World and Time themselves hang in the balance, a wind rises in the mountains of mist.

The Dark One is stirring in Shayol Ghul.
It is time for the prophecies to be fufilled.

I will not give the main story away, and if you have read the books, please do not either.

The game will have many characters, some playable, some not.

It will be like Lord of the Rings: the Third Age, in the way so that when you play, you can do many quests, change your party, and do many other things, as well as play through one main underlying story, following the people from the real book and helping them. However, in this way, there will be characters in this game that were not in the book.

This game is made with rpg maker 2003. Screenshots and Demo coming soon.

Post by: DragonBlaze on August 05, 2005, 03:01:41 PM: I got about 500 pages into the first book, but after two years of reading (I don't read much) I gave up on it. I think it would make a good game, but you should at least tell how the game starts off, it won't spoil anything.

Just don't tell us the prolouge from the first book, after reading that, it just spoiled the rest of it. Just don't give out any information on who Rand really is. (is the main dude named Rand?)

Post by: doomdude15 on August 05, 2005, 05:17:08 PM: Well, I decided not to make the game follow the main characters from the story. I decided to make it more of an rpg of the world, where you can go on different quests, build your party, learn skills, etc. However, as your party progresses, you can fight with people from the original story, and follow their quest too. as well as many other things related to the main story, like joining a nation, etc. Ever played Lord of the Rings: the Third Age? It will be like that. A lot of the main people will be in the story, but the game follows a different group of adventurers.

Post by: RPG LORD on August 05, 2005, 10:11:09 PM: Hmm...I would suggest making the character styles fit together, since I don't really think Minish Cap style matches RTP style. But of course, that's just my opinion.
Title:
Post by: DragonBlaze on August 05, 2005, 10:18:08 PM: I usually don't like saying this, but that map is horrible. Its very empty and plain, you have to add more stuff to it, and make the ground a bit differant than just green. Add some tall grass, some dirt, plants, rocks, and that sort of stuff. Also be sure to add a tree or two.
Title:
Post by: RPG LORD on August 05, 2005, 10:23:28 PM: Oh, yes, that too. It could indeed use some more stuff on it.

Post by: RPG LORD on August 05, 2005, 10:35:31 PM: Otherwise, I suggest you keep going on the project, no matter who'd complain. (not that I'm sure anybody would complain though..)

Post by: doomdude15 on August 05, 2005, 11:53:50 PM: Another Screenshot: Fishing!! I know, you guys don't like Minish Cap graphics. However-- I DO!! And, this chipset worked very well for what I wanted.
Title:
Post by: doomdude15 on August 05, 2005, 11:57:13 PM: OK.. for some reason graphic didn't show up. Here it is!

EDIT: What the heck....

Post by: Red Fox on August 06, 2005, 08:15:00 AM: I don't really know if zelda chipset matches the other chipset so good :S
Title:
Post by: doomdude15 on August 06, 2005, 11:43:31 AM: I'm sorry, I like the chipset. And that chipset worked perfectly for the map I needed.

Post by: doomdude15 on August 07, 2005, 03:22:34 PM: Whitebridge is finished! Well, almost, a few more inside houses to program. After that---Trollocs!!!!!!!!! Trollocs will be introduced and, once they are, a demo will be released.

Post by: Shadow_Blade913 on August 08, 2005, 07:18:36 PM: HEy, if you want the characters you have to have different clothes and such not, I can do that. I'm pretty good at recoloring. If you want me to do so, just lemme have a look at some charsets.
Title:
Post by: doomdude15 on August 08, 2005, 07:51:59 PM: Hey, that would be great! There is a really cool race up north that guard the border, and I made a black one here. However, if you could make some of the followuing, it would be great. No pressure by the way.

Red
Blue
Green
White
Red and White
Gold

If you do good on those, I will request some more, however, you will get credit no matter what, and I feel I have asked for quite enpugh already.
Title:
Post by: Shadow_Blade913 on August 08, 2005, 07:59:24 PM: Just one question, Do you want them all to have red capes, and when you say white and red you mean white cape or something like that, and I will get to work right away, and it may take damn long. It might be done today, tommorrow, or next week, not sure.
Title:
Post by: doomdude15 on August 08, 2005, 08:05:17 PM: Red Armor, Black Cape
Blue Armor, Red Cape
Green Armor, Black Cape
White Armor, red Cape
Red and White armor, black cape
Gold Armor, Red Cape

Sorry, should've been more clear. And nor ush. You don't even have to work on these if you don't want to. But if you do, i should put you in. What do you want ur characters name to be, and what do you want his/her profession to be?
Title:
Post by: Shadow_Blade913 on August 08, 2005, 08:05:36 PM: Sorry bout the double post, but I can complety reclor a character to make one have a twin or something. Another thing is here is some of my unfinished work on a Protoman recolor.
Title:
Post by: Shadow_Blade913 on August 08, 2005, 08:08:12 PM: Okay for some reason the recolor didnt appear...But I am working on the recolor as I type. Sure its cool to be in multiple games. :D Okay sure my name could be Matt and I would go with some sort of Mage/Knight thing. Here is a charset I have of the character. I'm using it for my game too, he looks sick.
Title: Whoops
