All right, i've updated the first continent of my world map a little more.

Show

Compared to this:

Show

As you can see, i remodeled a few locations, (More notably, the North-west region.)
and i also removed about 20-30% of the forests, and overall made it seem less square and strange.

What do you guys think? I think it looks much nicer now.

Probably a horrible code, but it is a custom damage formula script for items.
By the use of notetags I am creating, it's designed more for my game than anything else. Do any of you see immediate errors?

The entire create_custom_skill_cache is bad. This pretty much breaks the whole script. Also that regex... I don't even know how you learn to make regexs like that. It's so awful (also unnecessary and checking the notebox line by line for the regex is idiotic because that already happens and augh there is no part of that that isn't fucked up).

Here try this. Didn't test it, I just whipped it up:

# Knot of Rust thingy

# Change UsableItems so they can determine if they have the knot of rust attribute by having the string "knotrust"
# in the notebox
class RPG::UsableItem

  def knot_of_rust?
    @knot_of_rust = @note.include? "knotrust" if @knot_of_rust.nil?
    return @knot_of_rust
  end
  
end

class Game_Battler

  alias make_obj_damage_value_rustknot make_obj_damage_value unless $@
  def make_obj_damage_value(user, obj)
    # Check if the skill/item used is a knot of rust. If it is nil then this is actually a regular attack.
    # If it doesn't have the knot of rust attribute then do a normal regular attack
    if obj.nil? or not obj.knot_of_rust?
      make_obj_damage_value_rustknot(user, obj)
    else
      # This is where the damage calculation for the knot of rust occurs, change this as you want
      damage = user.hp / rand(10)
      damage = apply_variance(damage, obj.variance)
      # Once damage is calculated set the @hp_damage variable to it
      @hp_damage = damage
    end
  end
 
end

OH MY FUCKING GOD ADON IS LEARNING HOW TO SCRIPT.

If I really believed for a second he was 13, my shame would be enormous.

@Adon: Not to discourage you from learning how to script yourself, I think it's awesome, but I'm pretty sure YEM does what you're trying to do and more elegantly and with less complications. (I haven't even looked that closely at what you're trying to do: this is just kind of a blanket statement; no matter what you're aiming for, there's a good chance it's true.)

Arand,

It looked fine to begin with, to me anyway. I can't really see any difference at a glance.

The biggest difference is that i smoothed out a few areas so they didn't look....square. I also reduced much of the forest tiles, as i stated above.

Also, i'm using a different water tile, one that doesn't make it look blocky. (Unfortunately, it is not animated.)

And call me by my full name! ):(

Thanks! I guess trying to attempt to self teach myself kinda has a downside.
Thank you for the commenting, this is very nice so I can understand better. :D

Umm, yep, it's called I realized something.

I am thirteen. I thought that was already discussed.

Ohh, YEM can do what it wants, because I have the most incompatible script in the community in my game. (Though I loved YEM)

I barely mention it at all.

I actually like Tankentai a lot, but it isn't really flexible.

Right now I am working on a game Called "Alpha-Terra Conspiracy: Empire of Stars" . I have never seen an RPG maker game with Starships and time travel in the same storyline so I wanted to take a stab at it, It has to be massive but I am hoping to come up with something really cool here, I am mainly trying to focus on a good storyline.

Arandomgamemaker,
Your map is looking better already! My only complaint is that a certain tree you're using is EXTREMELY lime green as apposed to the rest of your trees.

@Those who commented on the expressions: Yeah, I'm planning to make more that are more dramatic. These are just the faces meant for subtle changes in emotion. The more notable ones need to be sketched out first, since I would need to make big changes to body language as well. I just can't do that until I get my scanner back. XD Thank you though!

@Arandomgamemaker: I think it looks pretty good. My only complaint is that the flat piece of land to the right of the ~~penis-like~~ ~~appendage~~ ~~phall~~ic god damn it, why do I have the mentality of a 12 year oldI'mbetterthanthis

That bit of land looks unnatural.

Creating elaborate/fancy battle animations for super skills.

While I've gotten a lot better at it since then (and so has the technology, to be fair) it still takes me back to the olden days.
