Am I still in on this?Abso-freakin-lutely! I actually need a script to make the monsters chase you instead of just run around aimlessly, so it may take a little while longer, but it'll be worth it. Sorry for the wait. I totally forgot about this. I actually started designing levels for Counter-Strike. ;D
You could try to use battle animations. Like so:
Needs to animate -> Character Grapic = none -> Display animation at hero position -> change hero graphic to "graphic"
That usually works pretty well. ;D
Your mapping is, put simply, awful. Some of the pieces don't blend in at all, like with the large green structure and the yellow walls around that floating island-type thing. The idea's not too bad, but this could very well turn into just another terrible fan game. You've got your work set out for ya, kid.Yeah. I noticed that. Hopefully, we'll get all that stuff ironed out before the game's release. Also, I am planning, thanks to arrowone's idea, to add a new party member of my own. A tough, young Chain Chomp named Chain! Luigi will also make a previously unscheduled appearance as well as Princess Peach.
I love new Rpg mario games but please finish i've seen projects started but not finsihed :-\*stares at friend*Definitely. I will finish this game. I promised myself that. ;D
Also, are you sure you wanna call him chains? Why not...Chad? Or maybe...Crunch?Hmm... I DO like Crunch. OK! That's his name, then!
EDIT: The link to the site is dead :(
Look for letter by letter in the script section, it's quite a few pages back. If you are using XP, this will be a BIG help. Otherwise, look at the sticky for message codes, I don't remember the exact address, but I KNOW there is one around here somewhere...Heh. I should have posted later in the day... I found an AMS (Advanced Message Script) over at Creation Asylum. It's awesome. It allows me to implement custom player names, and pictures instead of names to show who is talking. It's SO much better. Thank goodness for RMXP's scripting feature! ;D
"Gotta keep 'em seperated."Why's that? It's actually really cool the way I worked him in. You'll see.
Oh my how dare you leave out sonic if you do BURRRRRN in a pit of eterna flames of unhappyness
nah just kidding but sonic and mario would be pretty cool
Well, if it's just a turn-based generic battle, that'll be no fun. There should be some kind of real-time competition instead. Donkeys are cool.Hmm...Well, I would LOVE to put in the Action Command like in Paper Mario 1 and 2, but I can't seem to find a script for it. If you can find one, let me know. Otherwise, it's going to be a lot like the early stages of Paper Mario 1. But don't worry. Even if the battles aren't exciting, the story will be. ;D
...You mean that script all ready exists? DAMN. I'm surprised I didn't know!Well, I HOPE it exists! Otherwise, I'll have to request it!
She's hot.Heh. No, the food she cooks is hot. Usually. I will be implementing all kinds of cool recipes, but you have to find the scattered pages of the Grand Cookbook of Subcon to make them. Each page will give you 5 recipes, and you can find the items to make better ones. It's not as freebased as in Paper Mario, but it's still there! And you can make some awesome items with this system but, again, you have to find the cookbook page to use it! No worries! I will have a full Gamefaqs.com styled strategy guide for the game available on the website!
Oh! I got cool recipe ideas :) may I share them with you?Sure! That's why I posted this topic! This is a game by the people, for the people!
You just have to have Geno in the game!I would put in Geno, but there are several reasons I can't: (read them before you start the riot)
Geno and kefka pwn!
he looks happy... ???I changed the picture.
Fans of the U.S. version of Super Mario Brothers 2 will be quick to tell you that it's the oddest Mario title to ever appear on the NES. With plants that you pull from the ground, characters with special powers, and a setting straight from Arabian Nights, Mario 2 simply doesn't fit with the games that came before and after. There's a reason for this: The Mario Brothers 2 title released in the U.S. was not really a Mario title at all. It's actually a game released in Japan as Doki Doki Panic.Japan's Super Mario Bros. 2
Before Doki Doki Panic was even released, there already was a Super Mario Bros. 2 in Japan. Using the same "engine" as Super Mario Bros., featuring different levels, SMB2(J) was basically a harder version of SMB. Perhaps, too hard...? Deemed too challenging for American players, SMB2(J) was never released in America. Later on, however, SMB2(J) was included in Super Mario All-Stars as "Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels" and in Super Mario Bros. Deluxe as "Super Mario Bros. for Super Players." But even before America got to play SMB2(J), SMB2(USA) was released in Japan as "Super Mario USA." Confused yet?
Mkay! This time, REALLY I didn't screw up! The link is right, the file is there, the music is linked, all you need is a program called WinRAR to decompress the file. If you don't already have it, you can download it at http://www.rarlab.com/rar/wrar361.exe.
New link:
lTHIS IS WHERE THE LINK WOULD BE... On the real E-mail it was there...
Enjoy!

OH, and teej I found these I don't know if you already have enough sound but they are good ones...
Don't double (or triple >.<) post, Teej. Use the Edit/Modify button instead.mkay. Sorry.
It'd be nicer if he had used the tiles correctly. :/
yea im gonna b patient:D
oh i applied for beta testing n haven't got any replies from ya... just letting u know.. (email sent from was... admin@feildmaster.com i beleave...)
It seriously helps me to know that you guys are so excited to play this. I hope you aren't disappointed!
Bad news: I had to remove jumping from the map because it was functionless and only made movement harder.
Good news: I found a script for adding a splash screen before the title. You can now see the "Characters By Nintendo" logo, and the "DeskTop Productions(R)" Logo (That's my little development company). I came up with the name for DTP when I was, like five, so it seems like kind of a kiddy name, that's why. I stuck with it, though.
Update: Chapter 7 is FINITO! I am on my way to Chapter 8! THE FINAL BATTLE!!! Then, it's the...extra stuff, and then I can send it to you all for debugging, and then...
WE UNLEASH IT TO THE MASSES!
...And I start working on the sequel! ;D
I want Vivian on the second one.Vivian would be cool. Sushi and Vivian team together WOOO! I wouldn't like to be there. lol.
Okay. PM me when it's ready for beta testing because I don't check my Email.
My hard drive recently crashed, and I lost all your e-mail addresses anyway. I'll post on the forum when it's ready, and you can all PM me to let me know you signed up. I lost everyone's stuff. Undecided I thought I had it backed up, but it wasn't. Everyone who signed up is still in, but I just need you to let me know. There were a lot of you. Grin I really appreciate all of you guys helping me out!
I don't have school on tuesday! It's gonna be a "Cold Day" (not to be confused with a "snow day")!It's gonna be like -20 degrees fareignheit! I live in rochester new york.
I'm so happy! :D
Sorry. My mom's been badgering me to find a job, and I've had to spend a lot of time doing that. I'm still working on it, but regardless of whether or not I am done, at the end of March I will package it up, and send it to all my beta testers as-is (with blocks on the areas I haven't finished, if any). So, no matter what, you can look forward to playing the beta version on April 1st at the latest. And that's no April Fools! ::) Corny, I know. The game is much funnier, I promise you that!I'm glad that we can expect the beta version around April 1st ;D

P.S. Here's an idea of what you'll find in the replacement for Chapter 4 if you want to see...
No need to post it 7 timeseach link was to a different part of the page that had different songs on it. i did that beacause there are alot of mario songs on alot of different pages, and i wanted to save him some time.
Thanks. Lol, I love that site. I used a couple of Midis from there, but most of the songs taken from Mario games are the actual MP3s. Grini dont really care about switching party in battles because ill just remember what monsters are in the area and keep 1 or 2 different party members with me while in that area, so its fine, as long as the beta is coming out on april 1st ;D
I was just about to go on there to look for a techno remix of the Toad Town song for the sequel: Paper Mario Pocket: Future Shock!..........
the intro was done by SephirothSpawn on CreationAsylum
This belongs in a PM but..Quotethe intro was done by SephirothSpawn on CreationAsylum
ive searched for the script on creation asylum but i cant find it, can you post the script that you used?
The syntax for the AMS that I used for the game (I think it's Slipknot's) is \name[Name of Speaker].
That's a bug that i fixed in the final release. I'll be releasing it in a few days. BTW, does anybody know how to get the file size down short of zipping it?Lower the bitrate on the mp3's?
I'm working on it now, but I don't know when I'll release it. My computer recently crashed, so I lost a lot of its data. I'll try it again, but it's always discouraging when that happens.Why not create a new topic, with the story, screenshots, information, and everything? I'd really like to see how the sequel is progressing.
Nobody seems too excited that Geno and Mallow made the cut for partners. Is nobody a SMRPG fan anymore? I always felt that they fit into the Mario universe better than any other Squaresoft character that was in that game.Err, you really need to make a new thread for your game. D:
