BATTLER AND CHARSET RPGMAKER 2003
Posts
Hello everyone :D
I am rather tired so please excuse spelling mistakes but i also thought that this would be an awesome time to post this.

It is going to be my main character in my game, His name is Kiro.
But as you can see. That isnt very good ( i did it in MSpaint)
Now his weapon may look like and ore(boat paddle thingy) crossed with a mechete(spelling)
But thats how i came up with it. I calling a Sweep Blade, Light and fast. awesome for sweeping and cutting peoples ankels so they fall to the ground
:D EVIL!
erm. He has a percing in his ear. Look closely.
and that shiney thing is a Round plate of silver armor. His mother use to tell him to protect his heart.
but as he kid, he took it seriously and ever since age 12 he has been wereing one of those across his heart. it comes around and hooks on at the back.
Umm the shiney bits on his shoes are metel as well..idk why i put them there..just felt like it.
Or maybe he youse to kick his toes or something :D
Umm, anyways. All i ask is a battler. This is what i mainly want.
umm just make him look like of Final Fantasy dreams...I think thats what is is called..ill get a link later. anyways so basicly he goes from being small. to normal averge size. hehe
and a charset. well be awesome. same as style as the Rpgmaker 2003 RPT.
Ok with the Battler. Can you make it so that he is holding the sweep blade when he attacks and all that :D
because i like that better. I will hopefully be adding an "Upgrade & Fusion system" into my game
There will be other things yet to come. but i mainly want him to start off with. I am currently useing Zack as a place holder.
Ok.
Battler Animations:
The Attack: Normal Swing like if it was a sword.
Unique attack : "Sweep" Damage with 50% chance of Immoblizing.
Just a quick sweep to the ankels. Umm make it look really cool when he dose it :D
magic stance: Just make that ring appear around him and his stance like it is in the picture
defend: Just make it so that he brings his blade infront of him
Bad status: Make those little ball thingys appear around his head like in the RPT
Idle stance: Have him hold it so that the metel(silver whatever) is face away from the enemy . if that makes sense
Dead: Make it so that he drops his blade and then he falls.
Victory: He swings the blade around and around and around and around...you get the picture but make sure the blade is in the air.
and have cause he is going to have walking left/right(it should like he is running not walking) but with that his blade will be in his hand
(note this is for the battler NOT the charset...The blade is only with him in the battler)
Use item: Make it so he puts the blade in his left and and sorta twist his upper body and puts his hand in his back pocket. then he throws whatever he grabs in the air.
(note: he dosnt search his pockets, he just puts his hand in there for a second, then takes his hand out then throws it in there air)
Charset animations:
I dont think i need to explain this.
the basic walking up, down, left and right
(NO BLADE IN SIGHT)
and im pretty sure thats all. :D Thanks
P.S If you do this one. I will come back to you for all the other battlers and Charsets. So i can get the same detail in everyone :D There will be about 10 or less . so make sure you have spare time ok :D thanks
If you need anything else. Dont be scared to ask.....Phew. my fingers need a rest. Ive never typed so much in my life(not ture. but you get what i mean...right?)

Hey man, I'm no pixel artist but I hope you know that the amount of work you're asking to be done is a LOT.
Also the complicated animations are actually not even possible if you're planning on using battlechars because they have a 3-frame animation limit.
Pixelling takes a lot of time, especially for multiple frames. You're best off learning to edit some sprites from the RTP yourself first. There's a hell of a lot of articles/tutorials about pixel art on this site and a thread on the forums.

Since you did this own yourself, why don't you attempt making the battlechara yourself? ^^
I'm sure you can come up with something nice, not perfect, but graphics doesn't really matter. Also, you can have more than 3 frames and big battlecharas, but it's complicated : Yiou'll have to use battle animationzzzZzZzZ
Yeah I'm sleepy and I won't write anything decentm, but give it a shot yourself, you're making something custom and that's nice :D

Yer i was thinking i might have to do that. :/
fact is..im not very good and i wont my game to be decinet looking.
not like it was made by a 3 yr old :)
and i dont want the animations to be complacated. Just not the RPT animations. They...annoy me.
and i know it is alot of work. Thats why i posted this one first. Im not gunna ask for it all in one big shot.
Ill ask for the Battlers when i need them. Not when i want them
I need Kiro right about now because of i need him to go to a place witch will explain how his perents died and this Battler and stuff will go with it. :) Basicly his perants dieded and he dosnt know how it happend intill now and he goes on a revenage rampage but is stop. :)
But thanks for your reply.
Congratulations. you are the first one to reply....you will not win a prize :P
Ok at the other dude that replyed....I basicly just sum what you siad in this post

The amount of work you're asking for far exceeds that of a simple "help me out" request. I highly suggest learning how to sprite yourself because even if you find a teammate, with such a workload I bet he'll drop your project after a week or two.
Good luck but in the end, things like these are best done by yourself.

It may look bad but no one gets born knowing how to make it look good, train and do crap, so you can do pearls! ^^

Show your work here. Maybe someone will offer some tips, or better yet go to that art forum that around here....
try downloading idraw chara maker for fine pixel editiing and Paint.NET for a more advanced alternative to paint.
Both are free.
Both are free.
Practice practice practice. If you don't wanna practice, download a battlechara you like, and re-color it to be the right colors.
As a general gaming tip, dialog is important too. Try typing it out in Word and running spell check.

But still. it looks horrible hahaha

I recommend pulling out battle characters from the RTP and setting them up near your new guy as you edit. Then, pull the colors you need from them instead of picking out standard paint colors. This will help your colors blend together better, as they will be from the same palette. Also, with those characters you pull, try to find ones that wear similar clothing to your hero and use them as a reference for shape and shading.
author=ZimzamzoomFirst of all try to use the IDLE stance not the magic stance from the RTP. Try to take out the smile the RTP has (for some reason), it will look a lot different. Use the color black for the outline, do not use the gray color or the brown color( for the hair). It doesn't look that bad for the first time, but continue to work on it.
haha yes i will do that.
