REAP(a story made by darkshade9)
I like the concept, it should prove an interesting read when finished. I like the amount of detail going for the character descriptions, there, and I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that the fact hes Grim Reaper wont be treated so nonchalantly later since its the first part.
The only problem I have is that I'm not sure it's proper to hide little footnotes in hyphens -like so-. I'm pretty sure that's what parenthesis would be used for, maybe a semicolon and splitting the sentence a bit.
But hell I'm not even sure I'm right there. I just know my English professor would yell at me for it.
Anyway, it looks good. Nothing non-trivial to complain about. Keep it up.

author=Mewd link=topic=282.msg3655#msg3655 date=1191212534Heheh, you play Fallout too? It's funny, I'm such a pansy I made a character once with the intention to MAKE myself be evil... I named him Hitler and everything...and by the end of the game Hitler was the worlds most loved saint of a hero post apocalyptic California could ever wish for...
Procrastination is divine. But usually I realize that something is really going to suck to get done, I just want to get it over with. But then again, I am lousy when it comes to forcing myself to be creative. Kentona will probably need to punch me in the face at least once while we work on Generica.
Yeah. I always play as the goody-goody in KOTOR and Fallout and any game that gives you in active choice in behavior. I'm weird in that, unlike a lot of people I know, I don't have any fun picking mean options. (Unless they're funny.)
author=demondestiny link=topic=282.msg3648#msg3648 date=1191200096What sports do you play?
I am a fantastic cook. At the moment i have a job as the head chef at my restaurant.
I love to play sport and such.
My favourite hobbie would probably be playing videogames. I am a man that when he buys a videogame he will finish it. At this moment i still hold that record.
And gaming is, simply put, the bestest, most talented talent ever. Pwnage. ^.^
DON'T YOU JUST HATE...
Um... well I like onions but they taste like poo raw. They say if you hold your nose it tastes like an apple, cause taste is supposed to be determined by smell. Lies. I'm sorry but it doesnt work. v.v For me.
If you were to create a manga series...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninja_High_School
NHS started out as a miniseries that mainly parodied famous anime and manga conventions (Urusei Yatsura appears to be the main influence). The story centers on Jeremy Feeple, an ordinary student at Quagmire High, living an ordinary life. Shortly into the story, a beautiful female ninja named Itchy Koo (real name Ichikun Ichinohei) and an alien princess named Asrial appear. The earlier stories focus on the girls' comedic attempts to marry this seemingly plain, ordinary high school boy.
I am so cutting edge.
Oh, I know that dude...the one that made it I mean. I have a couple of his books on drawing manga. He's not exactly my favorite but he's a good artist.

Yeah, and oftentimes it isn't just the video resolution, the sound is always really bad too, like someone just stuck a microphone to their TV Speakers and set up a digital camera...oh..wait..no that probably is now they do it, isn't it? X.x
Advanced Party Selection
author=yamata no orochi link=topic=281.msg3639#msg3639 date=1191179145When you say party-select screen, do you mean a map where everyone is all hangin out, or the fancy screen I'd like to implement?
You could also use the Teleport to Memorized Place feature. Link the party-select screen to an item, or an ability. When you use it, "memorize" the map you're standing on, then teleport to the party-select screen. Use a switch to teleport back to your "memorized" spot.
Or you could just have a base where all your party members hang out, which can be found in different places on the world map. Or use a save crystal. All three would work, I think.
And if so, how would I make that in the first place? Like, a menu shaped chipset? Then if it's just like a backround...how do I get the guy disguised as a cursor to go anywhere???
I dunno, I had never thought to make the party select screen out of the ground. That'd be clever, if it's what you mean.
author=prexus link=topic=281.msg3641#msg3641 date=1191179857Well I havent tried yet, but I assume it would look much like that, if you mean the event itself. I wonder, could I cheat and copypaste the whole page to another event and just change the ID of the character being added to the party? That would cut down on a lot of time.
Choice

: > Choice
: >
: : > Set Variable to Party Size
: : > Conditional Branch
: : : > Add PartyMember1
: : > Else
: : : > Error Message
: : > End
Something like that?
Intro Sequenses, Help Me!!
I had that kind of problem for a while too, only more-so with scene switching...like going from what the party is doing to the ominous forshadowing conversation of a villain on the other side of the game... for a split second when the screen shifts the hero would still be sitting there. Even the blank graphic for the hero via party change didnt work.
Here is what you do so that you don't have to temporarily change anyones graphic or remove them from the party. Go into the database and just make a flat-out blank character, with no graphic whatsoever. Name him something stupid so you can tell who it is, and go to the System Tab in the Database and set the initial party to be just him. After the event, remove him from the party and add in the real hero, and you can just refer to this blank character whenever you need the party to disappear. The only problem with that is when you wanna test your game and you ARENT doing so from the beggining you have to change it back.

demondestinyNo...no I think I"M doing it the hard way... ^.^ Wow, so many methods of doing one thing...
What i usually do is just change the hero's character graphic to blank and then once the text dissapears i just insert the event "Change party graphic". But i am probably doing it the hard way.

It's nice that you can be so forward about yourself. Some people don't even know what the hell they can do, so that's refreshing.
I can relate to the empathetic part. It wasn't exactly something I asked for, but now I'm used to it and you know, I kinda like being the go to person for things like that. Makes ya feel useful doesn't it?
I cannot, however, relate to being punctual. *procrastinates a lot*
And and and when you play games like KOTOR, do you automatically go for the light-side stuff? And have you ever tried doing evil things and just can't bring yourself to?
GTA is my exception to this. Slaughter the town. ^.^

Well I saw a thread complaining about this place dying in usage. SO I figured I would strike conversation with an open ended topic that could end god knows where in a few days. *shrug*
So, what kind of talents/hobbies do you guys have? Er...well let's keep it kinda clean, if you run the "tape people doing naughty things to llamas" industry I don't really wanna know...
And no I have no idea if there is such an industry but humans are sick so I'll be there is. v.v First person to google it gets fifty Dopefish points. X.x;
Um, well this is gonna sound lame but I like to sing and I wanna get outta school and be a vocalist. I was in a camp this summer where we did a bunch of Broadway stuff and I had no idea how fun it was till I did it there. o.0;;
I like to draw and write a lot. I don't think I'm a really good artist, personally. I haven't drawn anything I can say I'm 100% happy with after staring at it for an hour. I'm trying to not suck drawing people, currently, but I think I can draw some decent wolves by now. *points to avi*
Writing, on the other hand, I think I'm pretty damn good at, which comes in handy when you have a really boring project to write at school and find a loophole that lets you write about something totally stupid and hillairious. (My teachers have since learned to be very specific.)
If you wanna see the kinda stuff I draw/write I have a deviantART here; http://www.chibisephy.deviantart.com
Umm...and those are about the only redeeming qualities I think I have. Your turn! ^.^

author=Shadowtext link=topic=274.msg3622#msg3622 date=1191125960*Feels kinda stupid*
I was hoping someone who spoke Japanese would come on and say "But Shadowtext, doesn't 'ˆÀ‚¢Æ'WÆ'Æ'Æ'“Æ'N‚ðŠO‘Âl‚É‚³‚΂«‚Ü‚µ‚傤!' actually mean 'Let's sell cheap junk to foreigners?'" Alas.
I don't know enough Japanese to be all smart like that. And what I do know I sure as hell can't write. v.v
author=demondestiny link=topic=274.msg3630#msg3630 date=1191135923I personally never got into One Piece either, although the idea of somewhat eating a fruit that makes em all stretchy was kind of charming.author=shixx link=topic=274.msg3594#msg3594 date=1191098060
..whats wrong with One piece?
I don't think there is anything wrong with One Piece and i reckon that it's one of the best anime along with naruto.
Also watched the funimation dub of One Piece on the net today. Makes it even better that it's exactly like the japanese version. It rocks.
But now, tha answer to why Naruto fans and One Piece fans hate each other;
That damn argument about which is cooler; ninjas or pirates. Seriously, that's too much of a coincidence. And do you know what? Ninjas are cooler, sorry. Not neccesarily between these to animes. Just in general.
