Why are a lot of us dicks?

Not to complain, or sound off track...but I just had a thought...What does this have to do with Game Development and Discussion?
This is what I've been wondering.
Shouldn't this be in like General Discussion, or Site Feedback?


Yeah you have a point but In a way its related to how people react to games developed and a discusion about how the sites sometimes filled with unessesary comments on such topics, at least thats what I understand.
If I'm wrong then I guess it should be moved or something...

How do I set the scale size in RMXP?

Huge maps are not my style, too much lag, too much work to fill 'em in. Yeeesh I cant stand walking in an area that takes 10 minutes just to get to the next town however impresive the graphics are unless their no random enemy encounters and some good scenery otherwise grind-fest just to go buy a potion?

Anyway, I dont mind that Mode 7 makes some stuff as you walk along pixley as long as its all in proportion I dont see that as a problem. Also I see what you mean of having to make a huge tileset just for such a sprite size so I might resize it to a reasonable level but still big enough to see the details and such so its looks like how its suposed to look. Drawn and custom made not sprited. I admire spriters but I feel like It would be best for me to draw everything out, its easy for me since I have all the resources I need in my little make-shift game studio plus I recently got a lightbox so I can hand draw any animation I need.

Theirs one small problem with Mode 7. The backgrounds need to be almost as big as the entire map so you dont see the end of the image and also I might need to work out a way to make some of the tiles to stop from floating around when you get too far, I'll post some screenies tommorow or later today after I get back from work.

I killed our little insect, it was the map size that was too big, Mode 7 seems to crash if the size of the map is 500 by 500 or something very huge I think.

How do I set the scale size in RMXP?

I'm using the Mode 7 ( from rpg-palace ) English version (24/04/08)
and the Universal Message System v1.6.3 by Ccoa is the only other script I have installed ( in the game ). I doubt it has any effect on Mode 7 since its a message script. Might be wrong but its the first time I've actually tried using Mode 7, before it was just laying around in my added scripts.

It would look sick with Mode 7 so I'd appreciate if you could help me squash this little bug.

What does it take to get a book published...?

A hell of a good story, you can print out the book yourself and just go a local publisher, try a book store and ask them after reading it if they can help publish it and sell it for you for a small profit, you can try doing all this yourself if you want to make more money just find a binder to bind all the pages into a book and sell it underground, if the plots wicked enough you'll have a viewing in no time.
This works for manga almost guaranteed but not exactly 100 on books/novels.. Oh and it helps if you have a circle of authors, you can share ideas and exchange books for helpfull critism and encouragement just make sure their your freinds so they dont steal your plot, then as a group you can start up your own publishing first small scale and eventually with more people you can create your own big time publishing ring.

Why are a lot of us dicks?

Sorry thought it was about critiques;
atmosphere's something no one can really control plus this is a really active site, by the time you post something you already have 5 opinions, comments e.t.c, its not like you can put everything on lock down and say that the atmosphere should change when we all control ( each of us ) a certain proportion of it. I don't know if you get what I mean but atmosphere like the weather cant be controlled by any individual and for us all to share or do things a certain way is like trying to control the winds direction, No way no how... I guess narcodis already mentioned this though.
You'll always have a bunch of immature people trolling especially on such active sites, with a "viewing" like this its a trollers paradise, they feed of our hate and anger as much as a parasite or infestation. just like the wind we cant let a little rustling here and there de-root us, it passes by eventually. Trolling can be minimized ( if thats what you mean by the bad atmosphere ) just by letting the wind pass by in other-words not caring about some kids beef with whatever kids beef over.

Will do narcosis ^_^

How do I set the scale size in RMXP?

Yeah, I just couldn't see any detail although it's the best size for such a sprite without ridiculous proportions
to the scale size.

I ripped Aanryu's profile picture and made this quick sprite ( sry but I had too ^_^ ). I never resized it so every detail is visible nothing looking pixley and such. I think the tree is also a bit more matched to the body height.
I never used the rez script as I now think its a waste of time since this already looks good.

What do you think? I think I can make the tree more visible with mode 7 but I keep getting this bug:

Script 'Mode 7 1' line 666 RGSSError ocurred.
failed to create bitmap

Thanks for the fast advice, I love this site for that. I think I solved 80% of my problems just Mode 7's acting up god knows why. If its any help here is line 666:

@map_ground = @map.clone




How do I set the scale size in RMXP?

Hmmm yeah I guess, The tree's just to show the default image size thats see-able on X.P. I found a script to improve the resolution but haven't tried it yet maybe that may improve the image quality a bit.

Hopefully I could see her eyes and the detail a bit more. I'll post a screeny tomorrow, I'm a bit tired now...

In that case I think its best I use chibi characters like Anaryu's profile picture and just make everything proportionate to that. Guess I can't expect to make a PS2 looking game on X.P after all but its capabilities are only so much so I shouldn't complain.

lol :)

Enthusiasm especially if your new can easily be killed by a few words, not all of us can take shit and stay enthusiastic ( I admit its not simple to just let things go and keep some zest going with a smile or whatever, we all have our emotions ) but I get your point Feld.

When someone says "hey you know your games shitty, get a new hobbie! " its really hard not to flame and do something spiteful, really I don't think its easy to take things hard and respect opinions even though some get you pissed. If we could try help each other out, maybe like instead " hey your games kinda lousy, you need to work on the plot" that would help since you not only expressed your beef with whatever game you also helped explain why, whats so shitty about it, If someone told me that I would actually listen and make my game better than just flaming on and on like the never ending whirlpool of hate thats so easy to stir up...
