MORTIFERE'S PROFILE

An aspiring game designer. I have absolutely no knowledge of game design in any aspect and am frantically searching for more information. Some article or another led me to this website and so far so good.

As for my likes, well a few would include music (currently learning guitar), anime, martial arts, movies, reading, art, photography, and it goes without saying, video games :p. There's more of course but that's just what comes to mind.

Currently I'm in the military, preparing for the civilian life in less than 2 years (hence the frantic searching and learning).

I'm always open for new advice, friends, anything really.

RPG Maker VX Help:

I'm a newbie to the game making process. I'm trying to learn as much on my own as I can, however, I figured I'd try and get some forum help. So in hopes I don't upset anyone:

I downloaded RPG Maker VX. I tinkered with making a map for an hour or so but the stock graphics only give so much. I know there's a few tutorials and I'm interested in this RM "School" game but it won't load. I assume this may be in part due to the fact that I don't have an RTP (whatever role that serves I don't know).

I'm also looking into learning Ruby language, but as I understand it, there is RGSS2 that is Ruby geared towards game making. Maybe I have that wrong. Any explanations, tips, or direction would help. Thank you for your time.

Also, I want to learn how to import sprites (and make my own eventually) and tiles, and how that whole system works.

Booble's art stuff

Wow, very nice pieces Booblebeedo. The first one elegant and the second very stylish. Great job!

Because a real man's sandwich has barbed wire in it >.>

No offense Mortifere, but I think Sam's passed the point where arbitrary, generic artistic advice is helpful.


Actually, my aim wasn't to provide any advice at all but to just give a different point of view of Sam's posted artwork. My comments were more geared towards the other comments made as well as complimenting his ability to mimic other already implemented art styles, which is more than I can say for myself. But all in all, no offense taken ^_^.

Agreed AABattery. You use "mimic style" as a stepping stone. But man does it help with learning how to draw forms and draw correctly. It also helps train the "artistic eye", that is, drawing what's there and not symbols. But, I can't draw worth a crap so that's just my guess ;)

In Sam's defence, I believe that although his art is in DBZ's footsteps (minus the robots), I hear it's a good place to start by mimicking an art style you like best and go from there. Which, in my opinion, he did quite well. Plus the robots look pretty sweet (I also like the "damage" on the bots, nice touch).

Funniest Joke You've heard

Kinda sucks Chuck Norris jokes got played out, I always thought his ridiculous feats and adventures were hilarious.

So these two cannibals are eating a clown and one looks up at the other and says, "does this taste funny to you?"
