Hey everybody. I'm starting my game completely over, only this time, I'm using RMXP. I've just recently found out we're allowed to talk about RMXP and ask for resources nd such. But any-who, my problem is I want to make an opening movie for my game Distant Light, but I do not ahve the skills required to do so. I'm looking for somebody who could make an opening movie animation for my game. Of course, absolute full credit to anybody who helps.
I'm lwant it to be:
(For anybody whos ever played Kingdom Hearts, you know what I'm tlaking about) I need this (MAIN) character (Attatched) falling through the sky crashing into an open sea, than slowly sinking downward. (I'm not trying to be a copy-cat, but I loved the idea). Then a clip of the same (MAIN) character killing this MONSTER (Attatched) with two daggers. Then go back to him sinking. Than another scene of the same type of MONSTER running towards him, but the (MAIN) character jumps behind it's back and plunges his daggers in it's back than jumps off of the MONSTER's back as it falls to the ground bleeding, while he pulls his daggers out. After that, show this (OTHER) character Attatched) standing on a beach, ankle deep in water, looking at the (MAIN) character, grining, and suddenly a giant wave knocks the (MAIN) character on the shore, as the (OTHER) character vanishes as if the wave did nothing to him, cut back to the (MAIN) character sinking, he opens his eyes slowly, and from first person perspective, he's looking directly at the sky, it's sunny and bright and there would be a lens flare, than fade the screen to black.
I'm sorry if this is too much to ask for, but im desperately in need of this. Thank you to everybody who helps out, as I said, full credit will be given no doubt about that. I appriciate it.
EDIT: I've added a link to watch the opening intro. of Kingdom Hearts just for some ideas.

If I were to do this, I would be able to use my own style of animation, right? I mean, I would follow the basic idea, just with my own personal touches. Oh, btw, what movie files does RMXP take?
-
Correct, yes. I think if you make an animation in flash and convert it somehow to Windows Movie Maker than save the file from there i think .WMV will work or .AVI im not sure exactly...So does this mean you're interested?
-
I'm already started, actually. Just check to see if it supports .mov files. Otherwise, you'll end up with a .gif (no sound, and it auto-loops).
-
Well how do I exactrly 'check'? ive got RMXP running already but i cant seem to find it..and Thanks! oh Yeah i forgot I wanted to have a song in there.. is it too late to ad music i can put the song in a .ZIP and you could add it if its not too late.
-
Sorry for double post. but here's the song...

uhh rmxp takes all files lolz, so do u want some techno with it? I could supply teachno or somethin if somneone else makes the vid lolz..
EDIT: OOPS SO YOU HAD YOUR OWN MUSIC LOLEZ
-
All? Are you 100% sure about "all"? I just don't want to give him a file that isn't compatible. And no, it's not too late to add the song, I prob'ly won't be done for quite a while. I'm a perfectionist, so it'll be pretty good, but I'm also a bit of a slacker, so that'll take some time. I'd give it a month or two to do. Sorry for the delay, but you can work on the rest of your game in the meantime.
-
Yeah no problem i just wanted to make sure i could have that song in there..oh and by the way this may seem wierd but once the movies done how cna i import it into RMXP? I just started my game not too long ago so, ive got much to improve. i dont want you to feel rushed, pease take your time.
-
Well, I don't have RMXP, but I would assume it's similar to RM2K3. If so, there's a button at the top that says Import/Export. Click it, then click Movie. Then click Import on the side. Then find the movie file. Open it, then... use it, I would suppose. As for checking, I think there's a manual in the Help section. Search for the word Movie, then look through the results for usable files. Once again, this is assuming that RMXP is similar to RM2K3. If you can't find out, I'll check it over the weekend. My friend has RMXP. At least, I hope he still does.
-
in RMXP there is no Movie file...should I create one?...look at my attachment...
-
Hmm... It might be under animations. I wouldn't suggest making a new folder. Look for an empty folder that it might belong in, or try that search. Until then, I'm goin' to bed. Here's a pic with what I have working so far. Don't worry, this is just a pic with the stuff. It's still a work in progress.
-
Yes. Im going to bed as well. Keep Up The Good Work! I like it so far. i jsut created a Movies file in the Graphics folder. ill search tomorrow for it in other folders. thanks again! :jumpin: but do you think you could make him falling without the weapon than when hes fighting the monsters hell ahve the weapons?
-
Yes. Actually, I was thinking about doing that, but I never got around to it. No problem, concider it done.
-
Thanks a lot! By the way, feel free to add any necesary details to it its your masterpiece jsut my idea!
EDIT:
I forgot to mention, the place he fights the monsters just make the background like a city or a town kinda, not like real town or city, every other scene will be an island/beach with palm trees thats for when he's looking at his friend than his friend grins adn a wave knocks MAIN character onto the shore adn the friend just disapears. just make it like copplestone ground some blue lamp posts near, make it like night time looking too, and can you pu this clock tower behind them or diagonal from them in the battle. sorry for not being so detailed earlier.and ya know how i said he kills one monster than it shows him sinking than it cuts in and he jumps over the other monster and stabs it in the back than jumps off while tkaing his daggers out of the monsters back, well when he slashes the first monster can you just make the second monster like next to the first one, kinda like hes surrounded, blood would be nice too. Oh by the way i realized that song i sent you its like recorded off the radio and some lady is speakign in it at the end i dont want her speaking in there so if you could, can you make it fade out a tthe end of the song right before she talks so you dont hear her in it, if not i can redownload the song a better version or something and put it in a .ZIP agian. Thanks again for everyting!
EDIT:
I uploaded a different song, its techno but it might actually go better with the Movie so here it is.

here's the clocktower picture too!
-
Alright, I can do that. Once again, sorry if it takes a while to complete, and I apologize if it's not exactly like in KH, I haven't played that game in ages.
-
No it's alright take your time like i said i can work on my game it needs improving. It doesnt have to be exactly like it just similar so dont worry about it. Thanks :)
-
here is the picture i finished it today ask if you want anything changed
EDIT: this is like a rough draft i will make a better version soon.
-
Thanks, the only thing I see that caught my eye, is his ears are a Liiittle too small, and so is the belt on his chest other than that its good! Thanks. How the hell did you learn how to draw in Flash?..it's crazy I can draw pretty good free hand, regular drawing, but when it comes to computers and drawing and lines nd what not, I suck. Lol.
-
Really? It's the complete opposite for me: I can't draw well (anymore, mostly due to shaky hands) by hand, but I can reflect my work on the computer (to some extent). And having CTRL+Z doesn't hurt. Or the editing tools. :D
EDIT: Mind if the monster bleeds something gooey and dark-bluish instead of blood? I just think it'd be cooler if he bleeds some alien liquid.
-
That'd be awsome. You're on the monster scene already? I like that idea. Can you make it likeyellow liquid or something, i dont want it to be the same color as the Monster.
^_^
-
i can draw much better in real life but i have a shaky hand too... i just image the mouse is my pencil and ctrl+Z is my eraser
-
I'm quite a talented Manga Drawer and I can also do Final Fantasy drawings too! Not trying to boast!

^_^
Oh, no, not quite, I just like to think ahead! ^_^; Sorry if I got your hopes up, but that'd be crazy if I had that much done already. And prob'ly of poor quality. Like I said: procrastinator+ other projects+ school crap+ perfectionist+ other stuff= a long time until completion. I was just curious about that, things run through my head like crazy.
-
hehe yeah, well thats cool i procrastonate too...a lot. Lol, well everyone take your time ive got pleanty of it im just curious, so any updates, post them. Thanks!
-
Since you siad you "like to think ahead"..i hope your not at the monster scene yet becuas ei ahd a sudden rush of ideas...remeber when i said, make him just kill the one monster, than stab the other in the back with a flip thing..well instead of jsut a fight scene can you make the MAIN character appear out of liek 'darkness' like a black and purple-ish warp hole thing, so when he walks out of the darkness he will take out the two daggers adn begin to fihgt the monsters that surround him... If you could do this, that'd be awsome...thanks! :D :bend:
-
Hehe... Cool idea. I'm not there yet, and important school stuff is taking up my time recently... Statewide testing is really taking its toll... I have to pass this test or I won't be able to graduate next year. :( So it would seem that I'm running into a bunch of obstacles lately...
-
I realized the song I asked you to put in the movie sorta' ends like outta nowhere so could you somehwo make it fade out. thanks! and Good luck with testing!
EDIT: Any updates?... :|
-
No, I've recently been fighting with my new computer, trying to get internet on it, and waiting until the weekend so I can install Flash on this new compy. I'm almost ready to start up again, so I'll be sure to start working as soon as I'm ready (hopefully by Monday). But between getting things organized and state-wdie testing in school, I'm afraid things could take a bit longer than originally planned. I'll ask my friend (DarkFlood2) to help out a bit, since he seems to have more time on his hands and is somewhat addicted to Flash as of late. I'm sorry that things are taking so long...
-
Oh okay I see. Don't be sorry at all i was just wondering if there were any updates. good luck! I've just found out RMXP accepts .AVI movie file types the best, so once you're done if you can possibly convert it to .AVI than it'll work perfectly.
-
I do believe I can. I'll check on it later, but I don't want to start up the ol' lappy just to check on that right now.
-
Heh heh, thats alright thanks. Just thought I'd give ya a heads up!
EDIT: Updates?...or Good News? :blue-eye:
-
Bad news, actually. I can't find the Flash CD, so I can't install it on my new computer. Until I can find it (or buy a new one), I can't add anything. I would suggest you try and find someone else to try and work on it. It's awful news for me as well, as I had put so much work into it, and I had a few other Flash plans in the works.
-
Ah geeze, well thta just sucks...
Uh...anybody else up to it?
