So then what about Final Fantasy 22? Or that Chicken Nuggets game? Or the several other projects you've made threads about on here, despite not actually having done any real work on them?
Title: Re: Harry Potter: The Book of Dark Ages
Post by: Doctor Professor Nikolai on November 04, 2006, 04:40:09 PM
Final Fantasy 22 was changed because there have been others made on here.

Chicken Nuggetz is as a hold until I get the sprites.

Dude, if your making a Harry Potter RPG you need Harry Potter sprites at least or it'll just be any other game. In my scripts, RPG videogames or anything else I work on, I try to make it unique and different from everyone else's.

It is already pretty unique, at first he was gona make a FF game but i told him that was as unique as making a Harry Potter game. And as for the Character's just add a wand in their hands, and maybe a robe/cape

RTP. I called it.

Sorry this is very noobish, but what is RTP? and why is it soo bad?
Title: Re: Harry Potter: The Book of Dark Ages
Post by: Malson on November 05, 2006, 12:24:28 AM
RTP = Run Time Package. Basically, it's the resources given to you when you install RPG Maker. It's bad because it shows a total lack of effort on the creator's part, due to them not looking for other tilesets and sprites to suit their needs, or even making their own. In some projects, this is okay because the game's completely unique and does show effort. With these, however, they look like they were done in 5 minutes simply to keep the topic from being closed.
Title: Re: Harry Potter: The Book of Dark Ages
Post by: :) on November 05, 2006, 12:26:55 AM
I see. well i am not going to use the characters that come along with the program but i have already started using th tilesets...is that horrrible? because no one has mentioned anything about my screenshots on the topic:

Zypher, almost every game includes the RTP stuff. But I'm not going to use the RTP chacters mostly

Well, in that case, using RTP is perfectly acceptable! Thanks a bunch for helping me realize that, Nik! I'm indebted to you!

RTP's fine. In fact, it's TOO fine. Anyone with a half-hour on their hands can make an RPG with the RTP. There are tons of custom resources, so why use RTP?
Title: Re: Harry Potter: The Book of Dark Ages
Post by: :) on November 05, 2006, 01:28:35 AM
Ok just wondering. If I use the tilesets will my game be trashed? Because my maps (IMO) turned out good with RTP, but after realizing what RTP is should i chang all them? or start makin the new maps with diff tilesets. And where are some good house/exterior tilesets?

Title: Re: Harry Potter: The Book of Dark Ages
Post by: Malson on November 05, 2006, 01:36:36 AM
It's up to you. If your RPG is completely innovative and original, how it looks isn't as important because effort is obvious. But if your RPG is just some undeveloped idea that you'll try to make up as you go along, using RTP makes your game seem very shabby and unprofessional.
Title: Re: Harry Potter: The Book of Dark Ages

Thanks for the advice!

Now lets return to this being about the game
Title: Re: Harry Potter: The Book of Dark Ages
Post by: Malson on November 05, 2006, 01:46:51 AM
My honest opinion is as follows: This game will most definitely fall flat on its face, considering Nick's track record and the fact that he made the thread seconds after you suggested the idea. No amount of planning went into this, and those god awful screens only make that more evident. He'll make this for a few days, then grow bored of it and make a thread for another game idea like he always does.
Title: Re: Harry Potter: The Book of Dark Ages
Post by: Doctor Professor Nikolai on November 05, 2006, 02:18:57 AM
Zypher, since your posting alot here, why don't ya just join the game? lool  :D

Harry Potter meets Sonic? I hope you get this one out because it could be pretty damn funny.

Post by: Doctor Professor Nikolai on November 05, 2006, 03:07:01 AM
Nah, it's just his nickname. I'm using everyones user from here, so why not use his nickname?

And yea it might be funny. I might have a seen where someone turns someone else into a mouse xD

But I wish you'd join the game Zypher :(

Making a harry potter game idea is damn easy.
If you need help in composing/idea tell me
Title: Re: Harry Potter: The Book of Dark Ages
Post by: Malson on November 05, 2006, 04:26:29 AM
Tell you what. Release an original, fun demo with tons of creativity and effort put into it, and a non-standard battle system, and I'll consider helping you out.
Title: Re: Harry Potter: The Book of Dark Ages
Post by: Doctor Professor Nikolai on November 05, 2006, 02:35:53 PM
@Zypher - Do you mean the default battle system? Oh it's not that! I'm using Sideview and Soul Rage Systems =D

@Nightwolf - I'd like for you to make a story, I'm kind of busy working on the game and getting the people togeather for it.
===Announcement===
@Nightwolf is added into the game in the house Ravenclaw, but is still a partyable member once you've completed the first quest in the game.
@Gryiffindor and Ravenclaw's dorms have been made. (Ravenclaw Dorm is only accessable once you have Nightwolf in your party.)

So Nightwolf, please post some information for you wizard.

I know, I know. Your not gonna be in it. But I was going to suggest you could be a teacher, being the Defense Against The Dark Arts teacher. I might use Blizzard for that though, only if I can get Blizzard's approval.
