getting good

I'm now 3 hours and 30 minutes into the beta playing. I'm now further than I've ever been. Now is a really fun quest. The only thing keeping me from doing it is thinking of quirky stuff to fill up the stores in the town before the quest.

I'm now almost 5 hours into beta playing. Wow the game keeps getting longer and longer thanks to contributors :-)

I just wanted to comment that this game is legitimately fun to play. I've just found the tower and I'm in lub with the game!

I read every post. saw all the screenies, but didnt look at the quest spoiler (i wanna play) and im workin on a small city. it will take me ages but it will be worth it i guess. not too big, not too small (i hope). i might even put in a quest or 2. But so u know, im the king of my city, hows that for putting my name in my work? lol

so far:
1x 2 story Inn
1/3x 3 story watch tower/armory.
1x shop

not much... yet.

I hope this gets bigger than runescape (i wonder...)
 OK IM PUTTING THIS PROJECT IN MY SIG!! woot!

ummm ok... i tried to download and play ur game but it keeps saying extraction failed. then i try to play and it said failed script or something.
any chance of putting a .zip or .rar or .7z file up?

I just downloaded it, opened it, played it. Works for me.

Maybe your download was broken?

Like instead of being 11.7MB its only 4.3 MB? It happens.

Thanks for wanting to contribute.

Well i tried twice and it was11.7mb both times... anyway, whats the main character? the default 1st character or one u made? i mean what character graphic?

EDIT: BTW, this should get stickied! it deserves it. STICKY IT SOMEONE PLZ!

This is all using the default graphics of RPG Maker VX. You make and customize the character at the start of the game like Dragon Warrior III or Final Fantasy.

The 4 characters / actors in the game are the first 4 in the actor listing.
\n[1]
\n[2]
\n[3]
\n[4]

Can you upload the game in zip, rar or 7z because the exe isnt working properly... for me atleast.

Random Question: When would someone use  or  ?

Actually, nevermind i got it working! 3rd times definitely the charm.

Edit: oops sorry for double posting, accident

ReEdit: umm you might wanna fix a bug... in the first city, where the guy says this is not a shop, u can get in but u cant get out =P

Double ReEdit: someone should make a guide, like which character in the pub is what class, and what they can become, where to train at what lvl ect.

Maybe that could be my 2nd contribution after my city is done...

Triple ReEdit: My city is taking a while...
Status:
1x shop
1x bank
1x huge palace
2x new enemy
1x underground cavern
about 5 or 6x new items
1x shop
3x merchants
1x quest (half done)
1x King A13x
1x watch tower
1x inn
1x river in city
3x gardens
1x scarecrow

[Spoiler]

The .exe works yep :-) The .zip would only have a .exe in it anyway.

About your bank, it does not need any code, I already have it defaultly set up along with a slight interest rate.

There are potions in the game that make scarecrows talk, unless of course your scarecrow naturally talks.


I just checked the armory and yes that is an error. I have slide doors where you can pick the locks to enter, but you don't need to pick them to exit. I had that door reversed. Those slide doors work well for when you leave the prison you can't get back into the prison.


As for classes, there is an in game guide that tells you where to go. The Shrine of Destiny. Here are spoilers as to where exactly they are.

Spoiler for Hiden:

Class = Undetermined goto Shrine of Destiny to pick a class

Class = Apprentice goto Tantegal in the south western tower to become Black Mage
Class = Apprentice goto Tantegal in the south western tower to become White Mage
Class = Apprentice goto Tantegal in the south western tower to become Herbalist

Class = Brawler goto New Alefgard pub to become Grappler
Class = Brawler goto Akarothi inn to become Fighter

Class = Informist goto Tantegal prison to become Thief
Class = Informist goto Tantegal center court to become Merchant
Class = Informist goto New Aliahan east near a cabin to become Hunter


Those are all of the classes in V.6 that you can become. Then in V.7 you can become:

Class = Informist goto Kendall Village to become Hunter
Class = Informist goto Shenagard Castle mall to become Merchant

Class = Black Mage goto woods northwest of Kendall to become Witch
Class = Black Mage goto ?i cannot remember? to become Warlock

Class = White Mage goto shrine west of Time Passage to become Pilgrim

Class = Herbalist goto woods southeast of Kendall to become Alchemist

Class = Any goto Magesto in Batroga to become Light Warrior

well the guide contribution just went out the window. atleast i didnt start it lol

Edit: yeah the download is working for me, its a pretty good game already. Im like lvl 3...
And where exactly is this Shrine of Destiny? any chance of a world map? lol
Does the spook guy ever get any skills? do any of the 3rd recruits have skills? 3 lvl ups yet no skills =P lol

ReEdit: damn theres no chef sprite...

Double ReEdit: FINALLY FINISHED THE PALACE.... that took ages...
Now for the peaseant houses and one farm...

The Shrine of Destiny is directly north of the first town / castle. There is a world map. It might be a bit out of date, but it is there.

Right now the creature characters don't have any equipables or skills. That has been corrected for V.7.

The human characters should all have skills based on their classes.

I don't understand... Is this really truly NON-linear game play? Can I do really what ever I want? I downloaded it and it lags horribly. At least only in HUGE places with tons of events.

Where does this lag for you? I've played it on two computers and it doesn't lag. There are not any huge areas quickly into the game. Later on though it does get to huge areas. I am doubling / trippling up on the maps.

You can do whatever you want. Kill NPCs... as long as they accept your duels. Prepare to face the consiquences like prison time. Revive the bones of NPCs.

Go on kill the king. Well you need to either wait for the right moment or offend the king enough that he takes you on. You can kill priests and pilgrims, but they must hate you enough to accept the duel.

You can use keys to get in any doors... just gotta find the keys.

There is a lot to do in the game. btw I loved your screenshot of that town!

UPLOADED VERSION 7

ADDITIONS
 - new castle
 - new foes
 - new puzzles
 - new woods
 - new mini games
 - new shrine
 - key system for unlocking doors
 - 4 new classes

I have now played 7 hours into the game to get where I am.
My party:
A Seductive: Brawler -> Grappler
A Pessimist:: Brawler -> Fighter
An Intelligent: Apprentice -> White Mage -> Pilgrim
A Pessimist: Informist -> Merchant

ive decided a city is:
too annoying to make
too big
too much time needed (i have a life that needs time too)

so i decided it will be a town
Its finished now but i got a few VERY ANNOYING bugs to fix up.
ooh V7 is out yay!

Yeah a city can be 4 towns depending how big the city is.

What are the annoying bugs? There are things that the game system defaultly fixes like the character graphics and names. The church system is also automatic as well.

for a quest, i have it so every time u kill a dragon, a certain variable goes up. i kill 17 dragons (thats how many are needed to be killed) and i go to the guy who gives the quest and it says i havent kill any. i cant find the damn bug any where.

Problem 2: i go to download the new version, it says 12.1mb till the very end then jumps down to 7.6mb. the extraction fails ect. i dont know what is goin on with that either... and it deleted my save...

Going back to 7.6 probably means the download is broken. I just downloaded all 12.1 MB. So it works for me.

I don't think that it could delete your save when it has not even set up. Anyone else have this mistake?

i try to extract the game, it overides the last version, and everything in it, then says extraction failed =P
bigpond is crap

Edit:
i have nothing other than the internet explorer open, and i dont click anything (keyword: ANYTHING) and i leave it alone till its done, and it says 7.6mb in 3 mins or something along those lines...

ReEdit: My OS is Microsoft Vista by the way

Double ReEdit: it finally worked! i sat and wathed the download to see where it buggers up at, and it didnt bugger up.... 12.1mb in 3 minutes 56 seconds.... 54kb/s and i got DSL, WTF!.

no offence but ur community project is dying. ur gonna have to pull a fast one to recover from the lack of activity...

Just downloaded the communal proj. Can't wait to see what's going on with all that I've been reading. Might even submit my own stuff... if I ever get around to VX that is. 

no offence but ur community project is dying. ur gonna have to pull a fast one to recover from the lack of activity...

I was away for a full week to the motherland. The project is on 3 forums. Dying on here is not dying on the others.
