CHARLESGABRIEL'S PROFILE

I didn't had time to finish off the new message faces/message style of Soldier's Quest... also, there are major bugs that stop the game, which I encountered not too long ago today... I am polishing and getting rid of the bugs right now. For those of you who plan to review SQ, or give your opinions, can you guys please wait for it until I'm done fixing these problems? if anything, can you leave this game for last in your list? I will appreciate it... the problem is... "destroy to re-create" and that's what happened in this version, I got rid of stuff, to remake them. :'( So that explains why the game crashes, when before I never really had this problem, but well, I'll update the RMN game thread with a blog, etc as soon as I'm done. I'm sure I'll be done today.

I made this topic to generate action, not just posts that go "Yeah, you're right! *sits around*."

Haha, you are right, a lot of people do this. I personally don't know many people who are actually talented and willing to work... most people I know are useless for these types of jobs. I have met some spriters, but I'm not friends with them, as a matter of fact I should say they are just plain cocky to offer their help to anyone, not even their feedback... so it's just me in this area. I don't mind contributing to be honest, I like it here... but I prefer to do it later on, as I keep getting better at this... so this is something we could talk about later on.

This is the short update of Soldier's quest. First of all, this update isn't basically complete, there are things unfinished, some outdated monsters that I did back when I started spriting, and some other small graphical mismatches you will find. I didn't finished setting up the faces with pictures, nor could fix all the small grammar issues that were found in the previous version. XYZ files are mine, made from scratch. The rest are edited rips/compilations I also made for the game. Most of it will be gone in the next upcoming versions. Oh, and there isn't any extra gameplay from the last version.

I'm uploading the game right now. I will provide the download link here, but I will also
update it in the game page in RMN:
http://www.rpgmaker.net/games/709/

I will add screenshots after I update the thread.

EDIT: Done uploading.

EDIT 2: I have spotted bugs that I forgot to get rid of while I was improving the game. If you download the file from the link, don't delete it, I'm working on a patch right now...

Bugs present...
-the face of the king appears all the time for all dialogue in the throne room.
-regular battle has no music.
-Not all dialogue have faces, and some of them are mismatched in terms of colors.
-The game crashes after the first scene where you meet a healer for the first time if you talk to her to heal you.
(I will fix this problem too, but there is an alternative, and you got to copy Example face.bmp or .png in the picture folder, make sure you check and grab the one with the blonde girl and the white gown.)

Patch will have all that fixed, I'll have it ready by 4pm, and since this thread will be locked, it will be on the RMN game page.

I'm not much of a crier when it comes to my own woes, but I've definitely shed tears out of empathy for others, and of course I've cried when I lost those close to me. When one of my grandmothers passed away when I was younger, I was really bawling over that when the news broke to me, especially considering it was relatively sudden. A few years back I cried over the 'heartbreak' (in retrospect it seems so silly now) at losing my high school girlfriend to college separation.

Considering how the girl herself turned out to be, or rather what I finally noticed about her once the rose glasses came off (she was not the best of people!) that seems really silly. Most recently though, I cried like a baby last year, when my mom was (and still is) really sick.

Yeah, I'm sure that I will feel the same if something similar happens to my parents. Well, yeah, like I said, looking back now, it feels kinda silly, but at that time, it wasn't as funny or silly...

Well first off all, now that I really decide to write this topic, this does sounds kinda pathetic haha... but either way, let's just get down to it. Well, I actually I'm the type of person that rarely ever cry or get sad. There has been two girls in my lifetime that let's say I have loved or whatever... the first time around It wasn't like the second time, since I was younger and really, relationships as much intense as I thought they were, weren't really a big deal for sad moments to really strike me this bad lol.

The second time I had strong feelings for someone, it was a whole different story... it was something more complicated, in all terms. There were times that I actually ended up crying, for many reasons, not because I was too soft or whatever... I mean, I'm sure that you probably met an specific someone that you get that reflects that whole positive change in you... make you inspired enough to become that someone that you really want to be.

In most cases, loosing someone who had great influence over you, makes you feel uneasy, sad, or whatever the case... while this is in my past completely, I just wonder if anyone of you have gotten into similar situations. Share your views now.
