Charts? Not authored by Dozen? That's wrong, man!

Kidding aside, when Dozen does his charts, he's pretty through about including as many known characters (that have tachie?) as possible. That would include incomplete routes.

I've forgot to get an approval stamp from the overseer! Where do I get one? Fast! he will be back anytime! D:

Well, as it can influence develops I've decided that I should keep guessing to a minimum. ;)
About missing people, I've made a scout through the artistic thread, and got a "unsorted list" set up, these are all the people I managed to get and relate, name-tachie, but as you can see, it's still far from the lot of IDs that we have reserved.
== Current unsorted icons list == (More icons will appear after more resarch)
- Mikari, Sarako and Yuureiko... (BDFalcon) [There's a whole lot on his locker room]
- Ryouko (Dozen)
- Ai (LordSquirrel)
- Emiko (Marrend)
- Wakeela (MoutainEyes)
- Sachiko and Shizuka (Mute)
- Megumi and Fujiko (Render)
- Seira and Yoko (Triad2)
- Victoria (Suiko)
I'll made a fly by at the old custom thread later, maybe a more through-fully search for clues too, for now I'm way too confused after the burst of info I got into those pages this last hours.

Notes:
- I've found a picure of those who must be the Ids 16-18 (Ran Fujioka, Torako Koizumi, Yumemi Tanno) but no info about who is who.
- I've found a Fran's zip file but the link goes to a Building with Anti-climbing special paint.
- Finished reading Seira's story, no info on which 2nd year she may be. I'll get wacked with a baseball bat for that? I seriously hope that she and Eliza never meet, they would destroy half of the school fighting, whole if Mayu join. .-.
- There's six chars that I don't know about on Dozen's sanity chart

Eliza falls into Quirky or Distressed? Alessa looks Mild.

Huh. A class chart would help a lot I think. Can I expect Kevincalanor's to be canon, or should I wait for another one? It'd help me figure out where to put my characters and what relationships they might have.
A relation chart, as Dozen is not here for now, and I'm known for the bad habit of canonballing into stuff I shouldn't... Guess I can try it out, but I'm still trying to figure out how to organize one.
Happily, Dozen made a relation chart on the previously quoted post.
(Side note it's from 01-03-2013, so don't expect anyone new there.)


PS. Chart updated: Noriko, Midori and Akira added.

Edit: Just found out that Megumi and Ai's last name is Nakamura. So I've changed from a duplicated name to another triplicated one. You guys are into racing games too? I should had known that more people like some Takedown action...
Not sure if I change it again or let the conspiracies roll, I'll let it this way for now.

- I've found a Fran's zip file but the link goes to a Building with Anti-climbing special paint.

I removed that file from my locker months ago. I don't even have in on my laptop anymore.

*Edit: I fully intend to make up for that lost route via Emiko. Now that she's not tethered to the character of the same name in the nebulous idea that is Oracle of Askigaga, and all that.

Allright, let's strike that out from the notes then. ^^
Also Emiko goes to other school? If not which class she is?

ps. Feedback time! I've tried to modify the School gate background to a story ^^
I want to add students crowding around it, but this surely will be a pain to do. :p

(A white coupe came in ridiculously fast towards school, all the students started to look at it when it braked sharply making the rear end slide, it stopped near the school gate)

(Wait, that Two-door is...)

Emiko is about as "other school" as Maeda Eriko (#31). Which is to say that she's a post-college graduate. To put it another way:

author=probably somewhere waaaay down the line in emiko_story.txt
ID = 25
OTHER1
You go to a coeducational high school, right? Then, you should really think about dating a girl from there over an "old bag" like me.

Since it's in a spoiler tag...

*Edit2:
Oh man, Emiko has a STORY that has four branches (not unusual) but each one activates a different switch (fairly unusual). I'm not sure if I really need that much differentiation, though.
Well mine have branches that lead to branches so 4 at once isn't such abig deal:)
Report of the day:)
Ihavent comleted too much just fixed some grammar mistakes and finished another 2 scenarios:)
Tommorow is weekned so hopefully I will have some more time to at least finish the 3rd place of meeting:)

Actually, no. I changed it previously, it's kind of buried in last few pages in the forums. It's Megumi Murakami now. For your chart feel free to put Megumi in 2nd year class d, and Fujiko in 1st year class e. Great idea too with making a chart. It makes it easier, especially if custom content creators wanted to "intermingle," stories. ^_^

Did I catch this? Yes, but I don't think that update was made yet?

After a bit of checking, it did look like I made that update with "Murakami Megum"! Weird. I could have sworn it said "Nakamura".

I think this can go in a new post.

Emiko updated! A few notes before you download should you choose to do so.

  • I, uh, haven't playtested the new stuff at all. I spell-checked it, but that's about it.


  • In respect to the last item: I have my worries about STORY 5/6 doing what I think should happen. So if it doesn't run properly, um, yeah.


  • I do, in fact, promote this game along with another one that isn't mine. The promotion of this game might be a tad heavy-handed, since I make references to myself, and my own content. The other one I don't think is particularly heavy-handed.


  • This content is still stand-alone, and intends to stay that way! Too bad Clean Mode is still on the fritz.


  • I don't know if Masako is going to make a special cameo appearance or not. Her appearance would NOT cancel the above item from occurring.

My bad habit kicked again...When ever I have abreak from work I am not doing anything besides doing nothing...So haven't done anything today(Is this even considered areport of the day?)

So, I did a play-through of Emiko. Aside from thinking Emiko's AFFECTION modifiers are too large, and some writing modifications/corrections, I think she's all right.
Great:) Then will you release her soon or something?:)
Report of the day:
Finally finished 3rd place of meeting:) (700 lines:)

A re-release might happen in a day or two. Though, I may want to re-release sooner rather than later because I made a code-mistake that throws an exception (AKA: causes an error) and causes the game to crash.

The joys of painting coding series 3.

*Edit:
I was looking at older posts, and, apparently, Dozen, did have a chart that showed who was in which class. Innnnteresting.

Got it ^^
Chart updated, I may ask you guys attention to this particular update, during one of mine scouts, I've found that Konohana's Story state that she's in class 2-C which the previous version stated as a boy class.
I've also found a similar chart by Dozen, sadly it also state the 2-C as a boy class.
As a solution I've mixed the three things in one. So now, ABC classes are on the Girl's wing and the DEF on the Boys, so you may add one letter to the boys classes on the Dozen's chart, so we can state that <player> attends the class 2-D.
You can also see the updated version on extra cool full size.

The Spoiler tag was because of the image, and I just written the text to explain why that RX7 was there, as long as no one figure why the heck a sport car came ballistic to the school's gate it isn't a considerable spoiler ;)
Thanks for the English correction, I've updated the text. ^^

Lol, seems that they had a hard time on that class, oh well, guess I shouldn't be laughing at Mayu... Shoko gave me some vicious looks a couple of times, and I don't think that she do that to everyone... Darn mine low Per points. :s

Oh lol, that just appeared when I've tried to quote your post. XD Well... yeah, I take about half hour to write a post
I'm happy that we found the same chart. I would have to reesit everything again otherwise x3

Edit: Thinking about it, I guess we should have a class chart on the Helpful things section, or any other fixed place. If something written by Dozen almost disappeared into the topics, I'm fairly sure that the same will happen with mine one day after I stop posting about it.
Not mine chart though, something text written to fit better there, I'll let this up to you and Dozen, I've read my own posts lately and I feel (Just now?!) that I've already stuck mine nose in way more things than I should. This added to mine cannon-balling, and scouting (instead of through fully reading the posts) tendencies made me owe more apologizes I can count.
To end WolfPack is was delayed more times than acceptable, even not counting with the files that I had mine files from last year.
Side note: I'll abort the relation chart project, not only because the listed above, it also requires a extensive play-through that I don't have.

I don't think there should be too many problems spitting up the classes into six. Though, I sumbit that Dozen is aware of more characters than I, so, um yeah.

The classes weren't spitted, I've just added two (one for each wing) because of the Konohana's history ^^
So the students on each class weren't changed from Dozen's chart, just the boys moved one letter above. (C to D and D to E)


Edit 2: Previous edit about a experiment removed. (Answer achievable with beta tests.)

The classes weren't spilt...

Uh, yes they were. Dozen split the classes into four (A, B, C, D). You're splitting them into six five (A, B, C, D, E).

*Edit: I am slowly beginning to realize that there's a pretty big hole in Emiko's story in relation to her initial off-day events. It's called STORY 6 - BRANCH A. Currently, they pretty much assume that players access STORY 6 - BRANCH B. Seems like a problem!

Oh, lel here we are giving different meaning for the same expression again. I really have low Per points... .-.
Anyhow let's drop this whole Split-Expand-Whatever question, it will get plain silly if I continue insisting in mine point of view.

Eliza's route is in about 85% by now, by 100% I mean the beta ready to go, as I'll need someone help to check up on my gamer English before calling it a finished content, Notepad+ checks the spelling but can't check up my bad grammar.
I plan to reward the guy brave enough to candidate himself, but I cannot find anything else I can do but graphics and beta-testing.
Eliza route features the Main route plus SMS events, a few custom calls and date events, and most important the currently in develop multi-route events.

Sidenote: I may submit myself to a "quarantine" to end up with the minimum delay possible, as work will seriously get on my way for a month starting right now. In other words, I will reduce post frequency.

Got to go to work now, see you guys later.
Try this for grammar fixing http://prowritingaid.com/ Its free and good:)
And congratulations for the beta release:)

Hey guys! So earlier I messing around with gimp, and I made some custom eyes. I'd just like your opinions on these.~


I've made it so the first row has the default color, whereas the second row has a different color so you can see how looks when the hue changes.

The column on the lefts eye looks kinda iffy for me. The middle is eh for me. And one on the right I sort of like. So yeah, opinions?! Be brutally honest, just constructive!~

Edit: The one on the right looks like she could be Tsubasa's sister. >____>
Also, I fixed the light column one and two's eyes because they weren't facing the same direction.

-eye test-


My two cents: I'm noticing the expression more then the eyes themselves. The match you present is pretty much perfect, but I guess playing around with the layers would be a better arbiter (Not that kind of arbiter!) of how they might relay other expressions.
