The back story
Spoiler for:
(This planet is in its Renaissance times)
-Planet Toreq, from earth it is by the Eastern Star Hidden along the horizon.
-Earth is located at the western Star from Toreq

While Earth hit the year 1985 Toreq had hit the year 0850.

Toreq had never had need of recording time as it passed on until the first emperor had announced himself, Manolauge Emperor First. He took reign of the entire planet all at once not piece by piece.

Manolauge had only wanted a way in which things would be organized, and so they were, the people had never argued with his rule for all he did was ensure things got done when they were supposed to and have announcements made when things were behind schedule. the people had gladly followed him since he took power.

Manolauge had come to a time in his life 5 years after he took rule where he wished to have a wife, he had chosen an average woman from where he had grown up. This woman was a Marrat Priestess, from a society of those who had been inspired to recollect the beginning of their planet and how it came to be.
three years later the priestess had given birth to twin boys, Merikai and ViToreq.
Merikai meant passion of will, and that he would be strong with age.
ViToreq was named after their planet in hopes that he may keep strong with the planet.
12 years later Manolauge had made a promise to his children that they may rule half the planet each when he died, and so be it 3 years after his death they became rulers of north and south Toreq.
Merikai had chosen the south for its vast forests and fresh waters.
ViToreq had by default gained the north in return.
The boys had become quite distant from their mother 1 year after they took rule, but as they did conflicts raised and the boys could not bear it. The boys had met and decided that there should be four rulers not two, and each picked one from the lands they ruled. Merikai chose the strongest man from the south and said "for your strength and courage i dub thee a ruler of Toreq."
ViToreq chose the smartest man from the north and said "For your wisdom and knowledge i dub thee a ruler of Toreq."
Merikai had chosen first the land he wished to rule as he had also divided the lands on their planet map. he had chosen the central south where fresh water forests flourished.
ViToreq Chose second and had wished to keep his northern lands as he had gotten used to the altitude and taiga climates.
Bomarrow, the strong man from the south, had chosen the West for it had great plains and deserts with rich water springs and plenty full ores.
Massayo, the smart man from the north, had gotten the east land by default, whereas the land was in high altitude but still of plenty of fertile lands and trees, the water was great for farming, but cactus juice was used for drinking more often than water, but even so he wanted to choose the land with more challenge for his interests.
and so began the new age where things will have a new fall.

[/spoiler]

Year 0850;
8 generations of royalty have passed and the world has changed drastically.
the newest generation of royalty is here.

The game is a lot more interesting now that you've added some screenshots, but I'm still lost on what exactly this game's plot is... I skimmed the backstory, is something important hidden in there?
Title: Re: Dancing Saria [VX]
Post by: crow5derlock on November 13, 2011, 08:13:44 AM
yes there is, look back at the first four rulers (after Emperor the First) and keep that in mind.

Edit: and on another note; i kinda need map icon pieces to add to my tile E set, does anyone have a link for that if so i would really appreciate it if you could post it

Wasnt quite what i meant, im not basing this off of TLOZ.

and there are already enough knock offs of that game anyway.

You still have a character with a name instantly recognized as belonging to a character from Ocarina of Time.
It's ultimately up to you what to name your characters, of course. Ripping them from other games is a little uncreative though.
Title: Re: Dancing Saria [VX]
Post by: crow5derlock on November 14, 2011, 05:06:38 AM
i just thought of a name and used it, and names are all constant- i know 18 Andrew's that go to the same school as me for instance.

a persons name cannot be owned by any one person.

and i do realize the characters seem similar, but my character has a blue dress, OOT has shorts, my character has green hair, OOT has a paisley shade of yellow. but i do see where you are coming from, but i put too much into the story now to change names.
Title: Re: Dancing Saria [VX]
Post by: Acolyte on November 14, 2011, 05:38:00 AM
I'm pretty sure there's no way you just happened to think up the name Saria before knowing anything about Ocarina of Time.

a persons name cannot be owned by any one person.
Except Saria isn't a person, and her name is probably copyrighted by Nintendo. :V

Also, Saria's hair is green. I believe you have her confused with Link.

I'm pretty sure there's no way you just happened to think up the name Saria before knowing anything about Ocarina of Time.

It's entirely plausible though. I have absolutely no idea when it comes to Zelda personally, but that's a name I'd find easy to come up with. It's like a cross between Sara and Maria; two perfectly normal names. Whilst I'm not defending either side, I'm simply pointing out that using the same name doesn't suggest "ripping" it from another game.

What is probably copyrighted is the character Saria used in Zelda. Not here name, but the character concept and design. Her name is fact, and you can't copyright facts. It may be a trademarked name to protect the identity of the original concept, but unless this game is going to degrade the original concept it's probably not going to cause any issues.

Plus, there's a lot of people out there like me who wouldn't even draw the connection. In the end, as long as the concept around this Saria is different from the Saria in Zelda, I wouldn't worry about it.

original artwork from the legend of Zelda ocarina of time all of the Kokiri's have yellows and orange shades of hair.

and until you pointed it out i hadn't even thought about ocarina of time since it came out for the 3Ds, and like i said before i would have to change so many events and things in my story line its not even funny so i'm not going to change any names.

Edit: OK so i went to GameStop earlier and because of miss copyright up there^^^ i pre-ordered "TLOZ Skyward sword" gold edition.

"Miss copyright"?
Dude, that was a joke. Like copyright even means anything to anybody creating an rpg maker game. I was simply pointing out that a fictional name can be owned. It's why you don't see any Legolas's outside of Lord of the Rings, or any other toys with the name Optimus Prime.

And I don't care what "original" art you're looking at. Saria very obviously has green hair.

Could you imagine what that Saria would actually look like with a headband rather than a hairband, though?

I visualise it to look pretty intimidating ;9

Yeah, demo got crushed when i was play-testing it, so im trying to re-organize the events so the error wont show up, its a pain, but i know whats wrong and i'll try to get it done asap

and im also still trying to get a face graphic for saria, so i'm gonna take a few moments with the VX Ace to make a New saria graphic and face

Sooo this game has absolutely decided that it will no longer open with the rmvx editor and so forth everything i've tried to recover some of my mapping data makes it do the exact same thing. i believe one of the map files is corrupt so i can no longer continue this game unless i start from scratch...

any feedback?

I can map for you if you need help mapping, you can see some of my mapping in the pack i sent you, also, in VX I've only ever used the rtp map set... I haven't never felt the urge to change the tile sets..... I'm happy with most of them but drop me a PM, i love mapping.
Title: Re: Dancing Saria [VX]
Post by: crow5derlock on October 01, 2012, 03:03:44 AM
I'm a mapper myself, mapping is not a problem, it's remapping after you've lost it and recreating the story and event system, what it looks like is that all of my data files ended up getting corrupt, it probably happened after my last bug test when my laptop shutdown in the middle of a save, so basically none of my data files work now.

so now i ask if anyone would like me to restart the project or if i should just call it down and continue with most of my newer work with SpitFire?
