Progress report for November 1-10
Monday, November 10
Well, there was bound to be a down day sooner or later. The only thing I did Monday with my project was to check the Maximum HP for two characters... which I don't think counts.
Sunday, November 9
I loaded up Episode 1 of Birth of a Legend and removed the return to title part of the end of episode event.
Well, I took the save to Episode 2, and it no longer returns to the title, but I still had a black screen, and kept running into King Mushies (Lv. 17 vs. Lv. 12 = DEATH). I faded the screen back in, and realized it was night.
So, it wasn't just referring to the last valid party in the old episode. Thank goodness.
Saturday, November 8
I used the save that worked before, and took a screenshot of the mountain path leading to Renzan Town, where a party member wanted to go. Now, he can be happy.
Friday, November 7
I opened up RPG Maker VX and loaded Dragon Kingdoms Birth of a Legend Episode 2, and my save from the "old" Episode 1, only to find that Episode 2 loads the old "return to title screen" event from Episode 1.
Well, I loaded an earlier save and it works fine, so I guess I'll just have to remove the return to title screen event.
Thursday, November 6
I made three more monsters (Black Eagle, Sahagin and Lake Dragon), which I could only do by re-downloading the SNES RPG Maker. Otherwise I'd get the colors wrong or something.
Wednesday, November 5
Two in a row! And on a Wednesday, too!
I colored two monsters that I had made in 2007, and imported them into the database. No more temporary graphics for Grass Snakes and Rockes (a type of golem).
Tuesday, November 4
I finally made some progress again!
I added monster groups to the database, and accompanying events to the second area (touch encounters). In fact, I have more monster groups ready than monsters that can yet be encountered.
Weekend of November 1-2 and Monday, November 3
Unfortunately, not much action to speak of in the RPG Maker front. See why in the World Series topic.
I did spend Saturday morning looking through some scripts to possibly add, so at least something is going to be done.
Sunday just seemed to run away. And Monday wasn't great, either.
