Dugeons and Dragons: Dawn of Darkness

Alright i changed the topic's name cause i mistaked someone's title name for a topic. So the real name is on the topic.

Still need more people to make their characters.
Update 1:

Here's some Screenshots (I have redone them too. they were a little messed up.):

Part of the intro:


Starting point:



Update 2:

More pictures

Inko Forest:

Possible spoilers:




(The guy that is knocked out will start the quest of your long journey.)



The Third part of the Intro


Update 3: As you know i'm not a very good mapping person. I'll be trying to practice on my mapping ot make them look good.

Update 4: Instead of 2 pictures. There will be 3 for this update. Cause i'm happy with my grades.

Ocarino town:


Ocarino Castle (Outside) (it is still being loked over for mistakes. don't count anything yet.)


Ocarino Castle (Inside Whole View) (It is IMCOMPLETE so this map doesn't need mistakes until it's done.)


(And no i didn't update the swamp map yet. Next update it shall be updated.)

Update 5: I've stopped working on this. This is due to working on a new game. I will announce the game later. I'll start working on this later in the early 2007.

More coming later.

(If there is anything wrong with the maps, please tell me and i'll fix it.)

does this have to be old-school D&D characters with like only old weapons or could we use, say, guns and stuff more common-age?

dungeons and dragons is online (..I think) so will it be online? I doubt it but I'll still ask.

Some of you need names if you want to join.

Ok guys i need a title screen (Not very good at making one.) So the picture is this:

http://www.flux.utah.edu/~aclement/templair/collection/Ciruelo%20Cabral%20-%20Unknown%20-%20A%20black%20dragon%20writing%20at%20a%20podium.jpg

Now on the top say Dugeons and Dragons and on the bottom Say Dawn of Darkness.

Whoever does this will be listed on the credits.

is it just me or are you ignoring me? Maybe cause I already awnsered my own question...

~Winged

Online? No this will be the first Dnd to be featured with no online play.

color for title text?

Very good. I'll add you to the credits for making me that title. Thanks so much.

really thats it? lol k thanks i guess

I've found a Dwarf battler for Boe. But few problems.

1) I need to change the color transperrent

2) Needs to be bigger.

If anyone helps me out i'll put you on credits. here is the link:

Updated. See first post.

Mapping needs help, there is a tree trunk in the water and the walls pop out of no where.

here is my 1 min copy map of your 1st one:

yay.  Sniper, the gunman xp

Mapping needs help, there is a tree trunk in the water and the walls pop out of no where.

It was suppose to be in the water. couldn't find a tree trunk water lookalike. i'll change that soon.

It's a room. But i'll try to finish it.

Updated. And we still need more people so make their characters so i can put them in there.

You are using the interior tilesets wrong. THe wall is not the thing you use to make the outline, use the tile next to the white one.

And as for the other maps they are sorta empty.

here is how the house should look: (what do you think, better? )

Sorry i'm not very good at terrians yet. But i'll be practicing so i can get better.

And my maps are empty huh? Thanks i need to add some more. I'll redo all the pictures with better on. (Hopefully.)

Don't worry practice makes perfect. If there is one thing I would say I am good at in rpg making it is mapping but I suck at everything else.

Don't worry practice makes perfect. If there is one thing I would say I am good at in rpg making it is mapping but I suck at everything else.

I'm good with events but not mapping. You're good with mapping but bad at events (Sorta.) We both have the different weakness and strengths.

Very true, I suck at alot of things at am average at mapping(many people will consider my mapping to suck...). Here is what your Swamp should look like: (remember I am making these in like 2 mins each)

I know you are helping me i thank you for showing me the house. I didn't know how to make a average house until you posted one. And my swamp is kinda randomish. I'll try to fix it.

I have been trying to point out everyone's flaws in their mapping. Its one thing that I can help with here at crankeye. So good luck with your game, and I can't wait to see your new screenshots.

If you want you can copy how the maps I posted looked, or heck even use my screenshots if you want. If you wanted to you could upload the game here and I could fix your maps for you and send the game back over, and maybe when I need help with eventing and stuff I could do the same back to you?

I'll try to copy some of your mapping so it would look good. But switching between game would be a good idea. But i promised that i would complete this game by myself. (along with some help.) Sorry. Updated.

We still need more people to make their characters so i can put them as party members. So when you're ready plz do. Just put the name and class and you are done.

No, its ok that you want to do it yourself, I was just throwing out my help. If you ever do need me just PM me with what you need and I will gladytake a shot at it

Well i already have redone them so when you come back please take a look at them.

Nice! THey are looking wayyyy better then your first attempt. They look good but still can use some minor touchups:
1. House is still too empty, try making different rooms, put the bed in a different room instead out in the open, try adding windows, and rugs.
2. Nature is random, in your swamp the two things comming out from the water are the exact same on both sides.

p.s the forest looks great.

1)I have a kicthen opn the top left. But i'll add more.

2) Yea it's kinda like a mirror. i'll fix that soon.

Ok there' are done. The windows are on the top area and the area you start off is in the bedroom. And the swamp has been modified.

Looking better. I like how you jump to fix your problems right away thats really good. =]
But still the house is sorta BIG and EMPTY...here I will make a quick house, and show you



notice, how you can tell which room is ment for what, and their aren't that many empty spaces always something new in every room.
You don't want to many things pushed against the wall and have the center eempty.

uhhh...secret project was a project i strted liek 3 weeks ago good name idea though stealling tis cool and all. like they say plageursim is the greatist form of flattery


im jsut screwing around honestly the project doesnt look half bad

uhhh...secret project was a project i strted liek 3 weeks ago good name idea though stealling tis cool and all. like they say plageursim is the greatist form of flattery

My game already has a name. Read it.

The house i have is big around 20X35. So the bottom is the bedroom. I'll add some more rooms in that house soon. But i'm still working on it.

why double post within seconds of each post???

spammer.....

ya but that should be the titel then i had the secret project thread first

I was going to change it anyways. Now would be the good time.

you didnt have to change the title man honestly i was just screwing around though it does make me intrested i havent read any thing so far so whats this about and have you decided on a cbs?

It was the time to change it anyways. So i felt like changing it. Anyways i've put up a poll allowing which Battle system we'll use. There's a chance i'll keep the battle system the same as the RPG Maker XP.

oooh dont do that the base battle system bloows hard

Not even with new monsters i got from the website? Took me awhile to get them.

yes even then the xp system sux get a custom one definitely

Alright we'll still decide on the battle system then.

i myself like the side veiw its pretty

Ekomyst teh Druid/mage/priest

It needs to be 1 class not 3 unless you are referring to that class.

i ment its up to you, any caster will do me

Online? No this will be the first Dnd to be featured with no online play.

Ah, thanks, I was just making sure.

You mapping has improved, but with the swamp it needs a bit more "randomness" in it.

~Winged

winged is right the swamp needs more creative touch...well its early for my swamp for my game, but heck here it is: (yes there is no bridges, why? I am making a boat that you will command to move to the right platform and continue the map)



see the diff of your swamp and mine

Thats what I call a swamp!

The land isn't straight and features are spread out more, great example of "randomness"

~Winged

well I just amde a swamp tut if you want to use it:

http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,9174.0.html

My skills of Mapping ain't that good. But swamps are tough. As you know i am only good at events. So thxs for the Tutorials on making swamps. This will come in handy. More Screenshots coming. Release date of them: December 1.

can't wait!

*deletes spam*

Ok guys i still need more characters for the game. It has to be done before i can release the demo when i'm done with it.

My skills of Mapping ain't that good.

Perhaps me and Nouman6 could be good mappers for ya.

Read my posts. I'm going to do this myself. Though if i do make mistakes, you can correct them or show me a better map. Thanks anyways.

thats what I have been doing so far 

Done updated.

hmmm...maps looking better, but still not yet perfect. THe wall tile is split off in the center, use the same tile for the wall center, and it wont have that line..Also the maps are sorta empty, If you can ever get a full map screenshot up, I can try and re-make it my way as I usually do  and post a full screenshot as a reply...other then that your skills are improving alot from last time.

Yea i am still working on them so thank you. and which map has that wall split?

look at the wall, there is a line going across it.

Oh i didn't see that. Thanks for finding that.

yep...amd from the pre-view of the map you have shown..hint: On making big maps...don't leave so much empty.

Why can't i show a map i'm working on? It is just to show my imcomplete maps for the game. This will be the only screenshot to be imcomplete.

no no you can by all means...what I ment is that from waht I can see there is alot of empty space..fill it up in the final map. 

Dude i decided to post up a empty map cause i was bored. Besides i'll update on this tomorrow with the swamp map too.

Change that. I'll get them up tomorrow by Monday.

Last update in 2006.

The house map could be divided a bit more, but apart from that, nice job!
