Every class will have its own equipment specialty, making it easier to keep track of what purchases you need to make! You may find some unique arms and armour in your travels- things that there are only one of in the world, and will never see again if sold or disposed of! Each character has a slot for the Helm, Armour, Shield, Cloak, and three accessory slots. Accessories add a variety of continuous abilities to your characters! In addition to unique arms, equipment also comes in sets, much like those seen in Diablo II, Sacred, and World of Warcraft. Lower powered sets are for sale with special vendors, and class-specific sets can be found through adventuring and questing!

Returning from Breaking of the Ancient seal is variable dialogue from NPCs. Fewer canned messages, and of course, each NPC is a character in their own right! Professions are back, each still featuring a tool that allows you to excel and also tells you how well you’re doing in that profession skill.

Thank you very much. I'm putting a LOT of love into it. It's one of the stories I've been telling through D&D campaigns for over 20 years now. Of course, it's not going to run like a D&D game, nor do I try to emulate any of the mechanics. However, the astute observer will detect some connective tissue between the two.

Your excitment is contagious! It's definitely something I'm poassionate about. I just wanted to look at it this morning, and I wound up finding a methof to place the Quest Journal into the Scene_Menu. With SCRIPTING. *ish prowd* Of course, it was kinda designed that way, but the fact that I get Ruby enough to tweak two different scripts to work with each other is a step ahead for me.
I also found ways to cut a script or two out. It seems that some YEM components do a ton of things for me that other, smaller scripts were intended to do. So, the code is less bulky! Harosho!
I have the next few days off, and I'm gonna try like hell to get some screens and pics up. Untill I have a decent working model, this thread will remain a WIP type discussion, and I welcome any feedback. Check every once in a while for a new poll; RMRK is my counsel for this type of thing.
I have a few other things planned that may turn out to be fun even before the game is complete, like community directed subclasses. In other words, RMRK decides what kinds of special subclasses will appear. On that note, any ideas for equipment, monsters, special encounters or charaters (wanna be a character? We can do that) are welcome. I'd like for RMRK to see some of itself in the game, since so many of you are a part of me.
The parts I wash.
Occasionally.

I'm no good with monsters, but I like working with equipment! Personally, I like to make each set of equipment have its own purpose (based on classes).
For example, I like to have specified weapons for warriors, rogues, and mages, and then hybrids between. Such as: warrior-rogue, warrior-mage, mage-rogue, and so on. So, typically someone will know that a sword is a mix between a warrior and rogue weapon, etc. And the same goes for armor. It just helps me organize things. :drsword:
Also, I would have no qualms about being a cheery apprentice psychic, if you're in need of one of those! ;o

Spoiler for Your Character:
You are Chaderac Vel, Daughter of Chaderac Lyn and sister to Chaderac Del and Chaderac Liv. (You're the little girl in BOTAS that talks about thanking mom for dinner.) You are of the Barbarois, a loose nation of gypsy tribes that inhabit the Demordrian and Aiel Wastes in the valleys of the Mystfalcon Mountain Range. You have inherited your mother's gift of "sight", the abitily to know that which is hidden. You are a Seer, a type of psion.
You are the first generation of Barbarois to live in Albareth without coersion. Your people are distrusted in the Two Kingdoms because of a war over thirty years ago that the Eldan conquerors could not win. However, because you lack the accent of your people, you pass for Eldan easily. You have a small business telling fortunes in Erelan close to your home.
Your sister Liv has been missing for two years. She was to go back to Serkesh, the city of the Barbarois and has not made contact since. Your brother Del has recently finished his apprenticeship as a ranger unger Yagno Pettrovich, who died peacefully in his sleep last week while Del was on an embassage to the old kingdom. His letters indicate that he has joined their corps of Rangers- but the constabulary has declared them outlaw for allowing Gnolls to enter the city's walls. Del is currently working to clear his- and his fellows'- name. He is currently back home for his mentor's funeral.
Liv was the middle child, and seemingly born with no special talents (besides a chip on her shoulder) she would always try to emulate you and Del. She shows signs of the sight, but cannot manifest them. Her survival skills were second rate as well, so she struck out for Serkesh to find her identity. You do not know your father; he died during the war. All your mother would tell you was that he was brave and led the Barbarois to many victories.
You are quick to smile, and your affect is bubblier than a two liter of Diet Coke with Alka Seltzer dropped in it. You "see" more about people than you let on, knowing that revealing someone's destiny may change it. However, recent events have begun to make you think it's time to spill some of the beans...

Hit a bit of a snag in the engine. It seems taht the nifty script I was using for skills and passives skills does not work with the class change script. They're both by Yanfly, so hopefully I can get some help from our rock star scripters- perhaps in the way of a fix or new script entirely. I posted a help request here (http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,48867.0.html) in case anyone reading has the knowledge to assist.
If there isn't a workaround, I'll have a tough decision to make. THe plan was to have JP purchased skills, JP purchased passives and a skill equip scene, all done by two of the YEM scripts. Then there was to be a class changing scene provided by the YERD script. I think it's more inportant to have the class changing, so I'll at least need to find a method to have passive skills and just write off the other functions of the YEM scripts.
OR, I can keep the funtions of the YEM scripts and forego the class change script; this will force me to remove some player choice as far as characters go so I can code in events that change class. I suppose I'll just have to wait to see if someone with more knowledge responds.
However, all the other aspects of the engine work perfectly, and as Pac once told me YEM > Tankentai for combat engines.
I'm going to work on the Database until I have more information, and hopefully there will be a solution. Either way, there are so many more features that DO work that this project will go forward. Check out the new screens I put up under "Learning the Ropes" to see the YEM JP script and a few other features, and please take time to respond to the poll!

I'm rather bummed; my computer's PSU fried. While I have another on order, I don't yet know the extent of any damage that may have occurred to the other parts. Hopefully none!
However, I do have some backed up software and a laptop I can use in the worst case scenario, and while the game itself is not backed up as a unit, the parts are. So the good news is that the project will continue one way or the other. I'll know more wednesday.
Not all that inportant to the general public, I just wanted to keep a record of the project's development- good and bad.

Hopefully I can get some gameplay screens soon. It will likely be some time, because the enemy battlers are to be animated... but I suppose I can toss up a few of the battle scenes and maps as they become available, of course.
It's just going to take some time. And a decent artist, if I can find one... otherwise it's gonna take a REAL long time. Either way, I'm going nice and slow so I can get all the features in I want to have in. It's going the be pretty dense with quests, mini games and item hunts. I sure hope it all turns out as I envision it.

Don't forget, yuyu, there's a character based on you in the game! Aah, she's a lot of fun to write.
So this is the first of the weekly updates, mostly for my own benefit. Characters were chipped, maths were done to get a working model of the level and attribute progression.
The engine is coming along well, thanks to our rockstar scripters, and that is going to be the bulk of the work. Well, that and animations. I seem to stumble over those. One this project is complete, there will be periodic updates- expansions, if you will- that simply add classes, abilities, weaponry and the like. The engine will remain the same.

All character chips for all available class permutations are in, maths done. Probably not balanced.
Item database completed; icons, effects, all that stuff.
States tab complete for now, having some difficulties with certain passive skills being applied.
Next step: Implementation of day/night system including variable npc appearance, varied encounter tables and treasure finding. Considering consequences for entering off-limits areas. Database the basic weapons, armor and accessories.
Its a drudge sometimes but it'll be worth it.... I hope.

I see my name is listed for music. I'm assuming you're using my RPG Maker Music Pack?
How about I just do original music for you instead (when the time comes you need music)? Or at least let me make those tracks you have sound better and loop properly.

Correct, I am. Wow, you'd do that? How very cool! I kinda fell in love with a few of the pieces, so lemme pm you with the tracks in using. Thanks, my friend!

Sure, PM me whatever you're using and whatever you may need whenever it is you may need those whatever tracks whenever whatever ok

The mixing isn't very good because I ended up having to redo all of it and the second time I put less effort into it because I was burnt out on it by then due to writing 55 tracks, mixing them, and then having to mix them all again in like 30 days.
Also I (embarrassingly) found out a couple weeks ago that you can actually put loop points into .ogg files so they loop correctly. Before I kinda just faked it the best I could but it's not perfect and sometimes it's pretty obvious.
