So far we are around 65% complete...
The Terrains are all set out and ready for making the maps, towns, dungeons, etc...
All 50 Classes are done...but with using RpgM2003...for each chara has the same and some unique classes...making a total of 50 classes all together, but since rpgmaker2003 wont allow me to change the battlesets, I had to copy the 50 and make the classes fit to each player....Thus over 300 classes made but only 50 really... :x
So far 4 charas out of 8..battlesets complete...so 4 to go...
Conditions and Attributes are completed...
Items are done, except for weapons, armors, helmets, acc, rare,herbs,mysticals,class aid items,so on not done.
Chara profiles complete.
Monsters are 0% complete...
Spells...project elementals are under creations by Xedret... 2%
Title, System 1/2, Gameover graphics complete.
Music complete.
So far...The game is going good..Once I finish the battlesets, I will work on the chara's poses then start on the scripting of game play, while Xedret works on the spells and abilities.
I should have a demo ready in the next month...If all goes according to plan. Or snap shots.

I have scripted most of the items so far...Only thing left is to make the final class items left which isnt much, then the rest of the items will be made as the gameplay goes along...
Spells have been on hold...Still a ways to go with them...So far over 200 spells done..around 230 spells really...not including monster skills...14 classes left to make spells for..and the other classes wont have spells..just off battle abilities which I will script after all items are made...
I made the Proprietor script...so once the game is ready to play...searching is scripted into all world areas...
Everything else is finished except game play and most the mapping of towns and such...
I did finish maping Lunori though...Here is a screen shot of Lumus Cont...One of many conts in Lunori...I will make more screne shots on Lunori later...so World map down and 1 town is finished..except for the inner housing maps...
I still hope for a Demo in 3 weeks...I will keep posted on how close I am to actually scripting the Demo...I hope to make the deadline though.

I agree.. It is true that u made it better and I think it looks fine.. But I don't think that ppl didn't effect the maps in other games.. FFs for example..

I am really upset your all telling me how it should look...
I am not telling you how it SHOULD look. I am telling you how I think it DOES look. I think it looks very flat and uneventful, and thus somewhat unrealistic. If you were TRYING to make the island look flat and uneventful, then you succeeded quite well.
If you do not want criticism then why are you posting things here at all? In that case you would be best not saying too much more until you release the demo.

Looks like you are really devoting time to your game, which is a requirement! I wish I had it LOL
It looks and sounds very promising. :jumpin:
Post by: Arcanagirl on August 22, 2004, 03:33:02 AM
For major notice...the demo is not gonna be a long one and has nothing to do with the game.
The Demo will be more of a teaser, show you some classes and abilities, battle layout and insight on the storyline of the game and some personal chara moments...
Post by: Arcanagirl on September 07, 2004, 05:17:19 AM
The game will be on hold for a few weeks...I have been thinking up some huge ideas for my game...my main goal I will work on it scripting class and love meter before I make my game...that way I can make the story line and not worry about all the scripting of extras in the game like side quests and such...
So far my game has an intro and a start...I will spoil a little so you know the game has been worked on in the past few weeks...I have it to were you pick out of the major charas in my game...see their before the beginning...You will play as the character you choose...but the main star is Lilly...this is more choose who you want to view first...All of the charas who play a serious role in the game will be selected from...
You will play into their lives before everything starts...The selecting ends after all charas have been viewed...Then the game will begin...This will be a view into their lives, who they are, where they originate from and a little into their persona and dreams...Dont think for a second that it will be gay...My chara's lives are no drama drama bore bore...just a bit of drama and a whole lot of..holy *%&^ work!!!
Notice on demo:
It is not a real demo just a teaser to give you an idea on my charas I chose to star in the teaser, I gave them a certain level and class..each is differant then the other..Give you a feel on classes and magics. See a few kewl innates of the players..brief feel of their persona and see a little portion of the storyline...
The storyline will be huge..not just oh gotta save the world storyline...Everyone knows you cant save the world..there is always evil and always death and war..This is more of a storyline that changes and merges into a big mad story.
There is like a lot of stories that will merge into the main idea...
The teaser is done and will be posted on my site...Once the teaser is active on my site..I will release the link on this forum topic.
The major notice:
My game may take a very..very long time to finish...I have to script the story all alone..so...You could be looking at a year or more before game is truely finished. The game will have over 80hours..way over..this game could take you a year to play..I hate small/short games and this will be very exciting...I will make sure every part of the game isnt boring...I wont let anyone lose interest..got it! Now you wont see me online for a while...But I might stop by here and there.

Post by: Arcanagirl on September 14, 2004, 01:34:43 AM
Serious/Minor Changes:
-Classes are reorganized: All non battle classes have been removed..meaning there are less than 30/20 classes...Now dont get upset..they are not gone, they are just no longer classes...meaning you dont need to be a classes to do them...
-Class menu will now be scripted by me...so no more of this goto a class wizard in a town...I will script an item that will open a menu to change classes..Yeah this will put the game behind more in time of release..but hey, good games take time to make good.
-More spells will be made...a lot more...and many removed..since some of the classes wont be useable in battle, their skills will be removed...only field type classes are removed and set into menus...so no classes are removed really...and also, I am adding 2 secret classes... oh yeah...Suprise! 2 new customizes classes...Not like warrior or mages...2 secret classes that no game has had...But they are secret and will be hard to obtain.
-2 added secret charas...Yep I added 2 more charas...But they will be secret charas that you have to work and find to obtain...and they wont be no weak idiots...
-A new menu will be created through an item...For the Love meter thingy I have in my game...I will make a menu for fun and exciting ways to get them together...There will be other ways to help the meter grow for 2 charas..but this menu serves as a way to see how well love flows between the charas...and there will be set things in the menu...which is secret...that may increase the meter...or who knows...something kewl..Wait and see...
-Battle Zone: Oh I am adding a battle arena..only located in 1 of the cities on Lunori or in any realm...so only 1 exsists...sucks for you guys...lol
*Soul Terror: Single player fight(1 on 1 match)
*Judgement Core: Single Player fight(1 on 3 matches/no healing...must win 50-100 matches)
*Last Stand: Team Battle(1 on 1 match)
*Serres Grail: Team Battle Rankings(go against challenging enemies...as in you challenge different teams)
*Core Survivor: Team Death Match(Go for the goal...team must last with no healing for 50 battles-100)
-Maps...well, I never liked the idea of world maps...I may have made a world map, but it wont be used in the game...You will progress through plains to get to a village...like secret of mana/star ocean 3/and a few other games...no world map walking now..lol...if your lucky you will find portals that take you back to towns...dont get lost now...wrong turn might take you to a place you dont want to go...
-instead of making classes change outfits...characters will have some odd set of clothing to wear...there will be a place to change clothes...but that wont be mentioned here.
-4 secret dungeons will be added...and 2 secret villages will be added...
*Demo notice*
Demo will be upgraded...I will add more to it...and it will include the menus...so this will actually delay the demo from being released...very sorry...But why play a demo that wont have any of the actually games menus and stuff...The new demo will hold more things to do...Have a better sample of classes to play as...Few places to explore...and no major thing going on...Go view towns and stuff..before the demo was you are in a cave and once you reach the end and fight the boss(who was godly hard to beat even for me..and I made the game)then a slight convo between party and end...about 20 minutes max..unless you got lost in cave...trust me...I made cave and I got lost.. :/ I forgot here I set the end to cave...hehe..hehe
Love meter will not be in demo.

Hey, as long as the music I've made so far still works with everything, then Allen's fine.
I haven't worked on any compositions lately for it though since my free time has been cut a bit, and I've been working on other personal compositions lately.
..but I'll get back on track with all of it eventually.. I mean.. that list of midis needed you gave me is quite large to put it bluntly..
Kinda overwhelming..o_o;;
Either way, glad to know it's still progressing.

The only thing I've done that I haven't gotten to you was a forest midi attemt, and I had a little progress on a mountain one a week or two ago. I'll try to pick up with that sometime.

When you reach the end of town you go streight to a forest or mt or plain what ever I put as a transition to next towns or secret dungeons..etc..
I think this will make my game graphics seem more gamish than what I had them at before...

Heh, sounds good then. ^_^
I think I'll attach the forest midi I did a good while back.. since I dunno if I'll be on MSN much lately.
I'm not sure if it works for a regular forest.. or a snowy one.. but that's pretty much up to you to decide.
What happened to the one overworld theme I did if there's no world map?.. o_o;; (The Lands -overworld-.mid is what it was I believe)..

Some places will not be open at day, some places wont be open at night...There will be timer sets so at a certain time in the game a store may close or a shop may open.heh heh...some shops may be 24 hour shops...you wont ever know...lol
Arent I cruel... (J)
Proprietor script is finished...
still working on class menu and love meter menu.
Will be working on auto weather as well...trick is to make the auto weather not snow in a non snow area or rain in a desert area...might take some work for that one.

I never planned on submitting any of the compositions I've done for Lands of Lunori to any source for the whole point of them being specificly for this game. So.. yeah.. I think I'll upload anything else I do for it to your site then.. though I wasn't sure what catagory to upload to...

In my game there will be a lot of side actions from in town to out of town that will affect a script called the love meter...The love meter counts or minuses all the points you make with another party member/non party member...lets say a tavern girl and Leris(main star chara) talk in a side action in town...by how you talk to her or your actions with her, you may affect the love between the 2.
Love between Party...In my game after so many events or so...you can enteract with your party in town...now when you inter a town your party is already around town...If your lucky to hit the right time of the game when an action is precent..you and that party member may enteract together by talking or action...You will have many choices in any event you have with another chara...For when ever you act or say something the other chara likes, the love meter will improve...disliked actions decrease meter.
Love between NPCs: Not ever NPC will have a love meter...and there will be for party members not directly leading...Leading party member is the person who is walking on map...The leader will interact with Party/NPC by your will...non leading party members will interact with npcs or other party members by themselves...
There will be a lot and lot of events between NPCs and party...and if you change the leader of the party, the events will also change as, if Lilly had an event with Camui to do with love...If Leris was the Leader, I dont think you would want to make that same event possible...I am not raceist towards same gender relations...But this is an era in my game when only difference in relations is different race relations...that is forbidden...but that will be allowed in my game...I will let NPCs only to interact in bi/gay relationships...Sorry to disappoint some, but all my charas have an actual true love rather than their love meter...but that can be changed, but if you want you can excellerate the true love meter...

Didn't Harvest Moon have something like that to [I only played it once.]?
However, it sounds like a pretty cool idea. :)
I will download this demo when it's out and check the topic for updates...
Good Luck. :)

I have already completed making the enemy group Dark Riders...
I have completed making the charasets for the 3 secret characters...I will work on their battlesets tonight as well...
If I have time I will work more on mapping Meridian Forest...
There is no storyline scripted yet...must have much more mapping to even begin making the story...Once enough is done for scripting, a demo will be released...I have been working a lot more, so I have less time to work on my game..Dont worry, game is slowly in progression...I will not abandon it...I guess this gives more time to my staff to work on their projects...
I will keep everyone posted as soon as I can...

Sadly I never got to work on any mapping...I didnt have that long online due to work and other things I have to attend too...
I am currently hiring midi composers...Feel free to pm me if your looking for a game to compose for...I can be picky about what midis I want in my game, but if you are very patient with composing and are capable of making do overs to fit my games needs, you will be hired in a split second...Be aware that I do test my composers with a demo midi...If you want to work for Seaside Palace Inc. pm me and I will give you a demo midi to make...Then once completed email me your demo to jenna@seasidepalace.com
From there I will decide your fate...
Another note to all...Once I get enough screen shots I will try and make a flash video and post it on my site for a preview to hold you over...Atleast till I get the demo made.
Please..I really need composers...I will hire as many composers as I can get...
To work I go....I will be in chara genterators for a few hours...

There are 30 Chapters in my game..but they will not be shown in the game..this is my guideline to help me keep my story on target...Each of these chapters is around 10-20hours of game play...some chapters may be smaller than others or longer...You can say that is you add it all up...that is around 300hours..I really have my work cut out for me dont I... (J)
Hopefully my next post will have a lot of work done...wish me luck...

my first book on Lands of Lunori when I was 15..I wrote over 200 pages front to back, and I only got to chapter 3...Lands of lunori started as a story idea that became a great idea for a game...So many who read only that first 3 chapters of my book said it would be kewl as a movie or game...When rpgmaker 98 game into my grasp, I thought well I might as well make it a game. Over 400 pages of writting and ideas flowed around...I have papers and scribbles all over my house...I tend to lose them in the mess and remake all my ideas on different pages...So you can say I have ideas all over the place and I tend to run across them and make whole new pages of story ideas adding every other page of ideas I made...My Story just grows and grows with every page I make...Movies and anime..other games also help fill my head with ideas...I dont steal the ideas from them..but they give me ideas that dont even coexsist with the inspirations the ideas come from...
Once I get enough of the story done..I will make screenshots and turn them into a flash video..like a prievew most games have...I will keep posting updates for my game...they may not be huge updates, but if I come into a huge update..you'll all know.
I hope that answers your question Ace...

Hehe. Yeah. It does. Quite more than what I had asked. Well, that's great. Long games are usually really good, just as long as it isn't boring. One thing that some people do to make the game go by faster is (I don't know why the want it to go faster) play the game in test mode and use the control button to bypass certain things. Well, not in my game. There will be little traps set out for cheaters. Well, keep things going. I'm sure this will turn out good. About your story thing, mines kinda the opposite. I have the game and writing the story at the same time. I want it to become a book sorta thing. But I guess you can say I'm basing the book off the game. Looks cool though. Lookin foward to it.

There are only character starting classes which assign the characters Will skills...
Gaining skills that were in the 50 once known classes...They will be taught to the characters through training schools...But there will be 1 small/little/tiny new rule with training.
*You can only train in 3 fields...Example*
Lilly: You may choose 3 training fields...Lets say you want her to be a mage with swordskills and orb casting...
Training fields will be:
-Magery
-Swordsman
-Orbithian
The 40+ classes are now in training fields...Combine any 3 you want...but choose wisely, cause once you train in all 3 fields you can not replace or change training fields...That chara is stuck with those 3...Lucky you I made a system that allows you to only train 1 fields at a time...So be sure to think before you decide to give your chara a training field.
Now if your curious about training time...
Training is short...You train in the field and then once you gain level A in Training, you automatically gain skills through battle points even if your now training in a new field.
Training Field Levels:
C-B-A
There will be in game demos of the fields so you know what kind of power comes from each field...Enjoy when game comes out...But it might not be released till sometime next year...Sorry :(

My only back up died the day my pc died...always my luck...
I would have burned my project..but I wasnt able to get a cd burner in time...so costly...If my site*my only backup* fails...I might not every work on my game for a year or too...I just cant take all this work and proud achievments dying on me everytime it is getting good...
The only thing left to do now...is maybe hope a real company like Square Enix may buy my game scripts...Then atleast my game would be made for sure...
Sorry I am so upset, I havent been too excited about working on it anymore...I feel I let so many down...
Post by: Arcanagirl on December 11, 2004, 05:07:28 AM
Storyline...Item listing...basically make a walkthrough guide and hope one day someone will take it and create the game for me...I just have one issue on that...they make it and take credit...sad world no a days...

I will offer my help as a graphic designer (or the ghraphic artist for lower ranking) and probable character design. Graphics design work? Dunno if sprites count but I have made some around; to original to edits, to customs. If reference is needed you can ask around here on charas or pixeltendo (some people know me already in there) I've done logos too as well
example:
A logo I did for a custom battle system to be used in rpgfreedom.com (100% original, if font not counted)
Character design? well I amde characters of my own. I had gotten good compliments and bads (which everyones gets)
What I am doing on my game currently are anime still scenes and anime style characters (hence my avatar, also some more examples can be found on the thread of my game). I've gotten better (or so I been told)
I also contain quite a variety of graphic design tools so yeah.
However I am willing to help you only if you are truly willing to remake this and make it. I am willing to stop my game in-game process (that is to say rm2k3 in game making. art and other stuff I will still do) to help you, but again only if you are really willing to do this, at least to reach that goal. And besides this could also help me.
Preposition made. reply expected.
Post by: Arcanagirl on December 19, 2004, 08:21:34 AM
This isnt the first time my game has went through remakes...
If we can get a lot of people tp help, I wont be so stressed out about remaking it...Cause even with help from my last crew..I did a lot of work...More than 75% of the work I had to do...
If I can just recruit enough people, like 2-3 maybe 4 people to a section of work...I could get my game back to 70% game status complete...
I love it that you will help me, and I will hold in my promise, but only if enough people help out...
I will look at your game and see your graphicsa you made..by the way, I liked the example logo...it was very good.
Kijuki? do you know any others who might want to help out? If so have them post here or email me : mystic_soulreaver@yahoo.com
Post by: Arcanagirl on December 19, 2004, 08:41:39 AM
Kijuki...you are so hired...lol
Those are amazing pieces of work...I can draw good like that, but I cant scan them, and even if I could, well I am no good at coloring like that...I just post my drawings o my wall...Pure talent...You make it much harder to quit my game now...I mean think of how nice my graphics could be with your help...Like owning my own company almost with the best of game designers...Wow...
:smoke: Nice...makes me want to get started now, but since my pc wont be bought till after my tax returns come in...I can only email and chat on forums... *Sigh* But if your really wanting to help me..I hate the idea of you just ditching your game for my sake...I feel guilty, like I shouldnt try and keep you from your work...I dont like acting selfish..So I leave the choice to you if you wish to hold your game to help...But if your gonna help...Your job starts as soon as you agree. If your truely willing...Let me know and I get your started on character designs...
Post by: Kijuki_Magazaki on December 19, 2004, 09:14:31 AM
And yes I am willing to do it so,as far as you completely sure of making this alive again.
Again do not feel like stealing anything from me, as in time for my game, I will work in it at times at times with idea, I figured I might not get it finished anytime soon, but I am going to finish it, lol that's the basic point.
So yeah I agree to this preposition.
I have different e-mails with different purposes, but they are all around the same:
Kijuki_Magazaki@hotmail.com : My main e-mail, mainly used for MSN messenger.
kijuki_sprites@yahoo.com : My e-mail for sprites and other graphic things. (also available for the YIM)
KijukiMagazaki : AIM screename
hamtaro_jake_kijuki@yahoo.com :First ever e-mail anything goes in there (also used in YIM)
So either if you have any messenger (MSN,AIM,YIM) add me and probable that I'llbe on, or if not PMs are always welcomed.
And well agreed.

But then I must ask you, can I be the mapmaker?
I'm pretty talented at that stuff. You wouldn't be dissapointed.
If you'd say "yes" I must also say that I'm working with my own stuff too. So somtimes I'll be busy with other stuff.
But I promise I'd do my best. ;)

As for Robotam..You can be map designer...If you have msn add me : magijenna@yahoo.com..if not pm me and I shall send you a list of maps styles I need...

Kijuki just finished a rough drawing of Lilly the main star...And he did well...I will show her when she is finished though...
I have been working on Item lists in MS works. so far 100 items listed and I rethought skill and magic gaining.
Each chara will have their own magics and skills to themselves...
So no classes..Classes will be costume changes...Class will stand for class costume...
Example: Class - Eligant...Chara will look nice...males mostlikely in jeans and a black shirt...Females and pretty dress.
Thanx to the help of Kijuki...Chara battle charas will look more 3d, and in anime style. :)
For skills, it will be possible to upgrade a chara to learn magic or skills from a different chara, by using scrolls...
Example: Lilly uses Mystic Magic and Ancient Arcana...If she wanted to learn Elemental Magic, let her read the scroll or that type of magic and she will learn only a portion of the magics.
Lands of Lunori Staff now 3...
Check for updates often.
Post by: Arcanagirl on December 27, 2004, 02:29:54 AM
This staus update serves as a review of some new additions to the game...
There will be fields to plant items...there will be several tools to aid in planting and harvesting plants that you can use to aid party or mix to make new items. You can even sell your items at a trade shop...They will buy your harvested items...Kewl eh?
There is also going to be digging tools...Digging can only be done in certain areas, like in mining caves, or on dirt or sand...sometimes snow. See what you can dig up, maybe someone lost a valuable item...hehehe, maybe a hidden spell book..oh yeah there will be hidden books that teach certain charas some of the most powerful spells and skills.
Geologist..bring dug up stones for appraisal to see what kind of stone you found...Some stones can be used in synthesising items. some stones can be use for alchemy to create mystic items..and some stones can be sold for a good amount of $$$$$.
Or you could have found a rock..sucks for those people..lol
Bar training...Yep, become a bar tender, learn the secrets in making the best drinks in all Lunori. Sell or use to aid party. In order to be a bar tender you have to go through training, then once you obtain a certificate, you can run any bar...Some good pay here.
Writer...Become a writer and create plays and songs. Register them at a bar or theater and have your own party act them out.
You may want to train them in dancing or singing...You dont want rocks thrown...lol :bend:
Bounty Hunter...Find and hunt down the most wanted people in all Lunori...Return with them dead or alive and obtain an award.
Adventurer...Become a quest seeker and earn the peoples trust...Take on missions and adventures to help others or just take jobs to earn money or awards...
Orbithian...Learn the secrets of hold magic into orbs..Then use them to cast spells...Must have tools and items needed to cast spells into orbs.
And a non skills would be my new idea...Target tactics...Advertise a party member to the market...You feel your friend is lonely or depressed...Are they unable to attract a mate...Well pursuade people to date them...maybe they will be lucky and make it to a second date.
Thats all for updates...check back later...

All my work and others work..its all here now...Lands of Lunori is now back to 75% complete...spread the news everyone!
*jumps around happy*I am so excited I feel all funny...I feel like running around and jumping and screaming with joy...
Edit: I regret to enform, but 25% of all graphics and files were damaged in pc crash, I was only able to recover midis, graphics, but half the graphics are damaged, like charasets and battlesets, some how the pictures became all weird, the pictures look like someone took and distorted them...They are un repairable, but on the bright side 75% of everything was saved...Sadly 5% battle sets and animation were distorted so I have like half Lilly battlesets and her other sets distorted...Take a look at what the crash did...see post below.
Post by: Arcanagirl on January 10, 2005, 08:04:59 AM
Edit: On the bright side, I have 40% of the entire game back...Better than 0% really...Less work for me to do now eh?

Robotam: Keep up the good work.
Dalherrin: could you try and make me a menu script for chacater swamping.
The menu would be activated by an item...and there are 10 characters in my game...I am not sure what type...I just need the script, you can use what ever you like as backgrounds or pictures to designate the characters...I can modify that later on. I just need a good menu script so during the game players can change party members. Can you do something like that?

Lot of creations... 30 png files for 5 Girls...2 costume sets...
Add 2 more costumes for girls and 4 costumes for men...looking at 120 png files and 2-3 hours per battleset of 3... Looking at 100 hours of work.

If you need a place for a website, http://www.brinkster.com/Hosting/Educational.aspx is the best bet you've got.
As for hosting the game, that's a different issue. Most people have been using Freewebs, but I know not of their service.

Sadly only items will open these menus...but hey they work and everything..I am so proud of myself...I drew the borders and background myself...it is awsome.
Menus Made:
A Crafting item menu, which was tested and works...no errors...If you have the right amount of materials to make an item it says creating new item...or if you lack any of the 3/4 types of materials, it says not enough supplies...
A Party Changer...since there are 10 charas...Gonna need a chara switcher...
A bounty Scroll Menu...This is a scroll that tells you what bounties you completed or are currently working on...SO many bounty points may grant you a prize... :P
A Quest Menu...Same as bounty Menu
A Costume Menu...It will hold each charas name, click a character to view their different costumes then select a costume to change into. You must first buy or find a chara's secret costumes.
A Music Selector...Listen to music from the game, or change the themes of battle..If you want any battle to have your favorite theme, this is how you do it.
Love menu: Feel like having fun and playing god...This menu will be for you to make any chara you want try to hook up with different charas or npcs...But there are only so many that can be hooked with..Not all npcs will be dateable. The menu has limits...You can set up a date with a party member or an npc, but you can only give gifts in the window to party members...To give a gift to an NPC..You have to have the item when you talk to them and select give a gift.
Realm Travel menu...once you obtain the right item, you can realm travel...Select which realm you wish to goto.
Alchemy Menu: Mix herbs together to get more powerful items.
Digging doesnt have a menu but know this...digging is only allowed in certain areas.
Orb Casting menu: Take ordinary orbs and sythesis them with magic...They are used as items in battle or outside depending on orb.
Warping Menu: Once you learn warp, you can travel to any place you have been to in Lunori...But only places you have been too. Dungeons included.
Marrage scroll menu: If you get married, this menu, which is only located in your home you buy; will serve as actions and such you want to use with your companion...
House menu: Each character can buy a house to live in. There will be a menu for each house with a list of things you can do...place some items you made(only a few items though, like treasure chests or magic items to help you on your journey...calendar too)...some other stuff too.
Tutorial menu: This is a book that will explain various things in the game you can do. So if you get confused on how to craft or marry and such it will explain all that.
I may make a couple side games, not sure what yet...or how to script them, I will post later on that.

I like menu, I really do. There's nothing really wrong with it, not to my eyes.
Very good, I'll try keep up wth the maps but right now when I'm taking care of the Community Contest there will be less work done.
But I will still try to keep up with the work.

Another note I completed several menus and redesigned them completed in style and looks, a huge improvement...Screenshots will be released later on next month.
I made an entire game map layout, they may be black but atleast I have them layed out for me.
A few items were scripted in and a about 35 spells created.
All that is left, which keeps me from working on gameplay scripting, is maps/battlesets/items and spells... I am almost there everyone! Work is going slow but each day of an hour or more of work will pay off months from now.
My other main consern is music. I have someone making me music, but there will be a huge amount of midis, I would like to take the time to request a composer to maybe compose a few midis for me...You dont have to be my full time composer, just a few midis..Like 2 or 3, or maybe 1 if that is what you would like. Every bit counts now.
I will keep updating when I do several things...Keep an eye out!
Post by: Arcanagirl on February 11, 2005, 01:01:56 AM
I updated my chars menu to add in male charas.
Liera Cave has been started. Maridani Forest has been started.
All recovery items made, working on weapons now.
Made 20 more spells.
Work is starting to speed up for me...
Goal is to finish Zaons battleset, then make a few more spells and 3rd battle costumes. Also to finish The 2 started maps.
Post by: WarxePB on February 11, 2005, 03:52:53 AM
Uh... If you would like me to sprite your weapons, just say so. I'll need a list and a short description (basic shape, color, anything else) of each. You can ask for as many as you like; I have a lot of spare time. You could also check my site if you want to use some of my other work.
I hope I'm not being overly aggressive. But I think that this game is going to turn out really well, and I want to help in any way possible.
Post by: Arcanagirl on February 12, 2005, 08:09:30 AM
21 weapons made for average swords.
Next goal is Knight Swords...Mostlikely be 35 of these...
Then to staffs and rods...
Followed by Claws and Gloves...
Then Powerbands and Specialty weapons...
Whips and guns...
50 more spells made! plus an entire spell list was created of over 150 spells...not encluding spirit abilities and omega spells.
Liera cave has not advanced at all since last post...
Meridani Forest now has 3 sections and a hidden cave section.
a midi was added to music section....
New Ideas enrolled in game:
-A coward point system
If a character has high coward points they remove themselves from battles they fear. They will leave party entirely and you have to find them. They could be out in open area or just running around in circles on map. Sometimes aftr battle they rejoin auto. Sometimes you can talk them into being brave enough to come back into battle. There will be way to lower this point scale and or raise it. Note this system means all battles a party member is affraid of, even main bosses or final battle. A game over is possible also if all 4 party heros become cowards at once. So make sure to check coward status on a member to make sure they dont run away.
Also note a member can get fearful if under a certain condition. Like poison or Sidren Poison even Bind.
-Marrage and divource are a new option in dating events. Even having children.
Goals for tonight and tomorrow:
-Finish 25% weapons
-Map some more of Meridani Forest
-Get started on 2nd costums for Leris/Tetsia/Merric/ and Zaon.
10 more spells done
I will post when 50% or more of these goals are meet or on any new info for my game.

As I said before everyone, The demo might not be done for another maybe 5 months maxium...Mean if not done sooner it should be done for sure in 5 months. I myself am so excited.
Sadly I dont have all the midis I need, so I have 5 months to see if I can get someone to make me some. Dren is on a break I believe.

I really want Dren to work on my music, he is very talented at it and he made some of my games best music already.But I realized last night that I totally need some midis now. Like the Sedian Utility Base and a victory theme for battle. I also need a midi for mission status and success... I need these for the demo..and also a forest theme. These are my main conserns I need to get done. Before the next 5 months. If anyone is good at midi composing please attach a midi you made once for me to listen to and if you wish to aid in the games work. I would be happy to get some more composers.
Unless dren comes back...
Post by: Starduster on August 05, 2005, 06:39:20 PM
No demo should take five monthes...I mean you want to introduce the characters, the world, the basic storyline, and a few things like that, unless your trying to put out half of the game. this game seems REALLY huge and i give you props for such a huge task, but like i said don't spend five monthes on a demo. I remember keeping up with this forum when it started, you should have just released that first demo instead of expanding it more and more.
Also don't go too far off course of th game like making abilities and stuff like secret characters. If secrets characters come way later in the game i would assume it wouldn't be in the demo right?
Keep on doing good work but don't stress over making a five month demo, I'm ready to play the game not hear about it! :sweet:
Until then I'll continue to keep up with your progress.
