It's a shame my game isn't nearly half as good as this... mine's s**t

[Reives]

Thanks~


Mm, today I tested out the mode07 script by MGCaladtogel; it's probably the most amazing script I have came across in terms of RMXP. It pretty much *simulates* '3D RMXP'. However it seems to be still undergoing development, and highly tricky to use when it comes to complicated maps, so I probably won't use it. But here's 2 screenshots of Korbin Village with the script implemented:






The most amazing things happen when you move, as the tiles that's simulated to be as 'close to the camera' (e.g. the large building top on the second screen's bottom) moves with the camera.

Anyhow, it's a very very fun script by MGCaladtogel. And by the way here's a demo by Shadowfox for the script if anyone wanna check it out: http://files.filefront.com/Mode_7exe/;7400289;/fileinfo.html

[Rune]

Holy Shit!
But won't you need to make new fogs for your indoor maps?

Could you post the script please?

[Kokowam]

You could just get the demo and get it... Whatever. Here. I did it for all you n00by lazy people. XD Jk. You all cool.

[Reives]

Oh and here's the thread for the script;
http://www.dragonkid.org/forums/showthread.php?t=19976
Definitely check it out.

And as for the cosmetic fogs, I would need to make new ones but also, it wouldn't work anymore for maps bigger than default size. So yeah. . . I'll probably only use it for worldmap-ish effect. Or something of that sort.


Edit: I've decided to utilize the 07mode for the intro music video as well as battle system... Here are a few screenshots, again.

Intro Music Vid with 07mode and improved lighting fog/picture effects:





Quintessence original CBS Battle Intro and During-Battle:

[modern algebra]

That's cool! I like it for the battle system and video it looks nice. I wouldn't keep it for anything else though, simply because it seems a little artificial. Maybe just cutscenes and battles.

[Reives]

Agreed, that's what I'm planning right now; probably not for the cutscenes neither though, just battles and some scenes in the intro 'vid'. While it kinda looks nice (mainly because it's different), it has a lot of holes at the moment and isn't very reliable for actual main use.

[Rune]

Heh... good thing you know how to use that Mode 7 script properly... I don't
Battle system looks cool and i'd use Mode 7 for anything that isn't indoors or similar... If you get my drift...
Can't wait for the next demo

[Irgna]

Mode 7 is awsome, but I can see some flaws that it has in the demo (the trees).

[Reives]

Chapter 2 might take a while, since I'm planning to make it go through the Kardian's past which takes place in Aeria; hence I have to make the maps of the capital city as well... Which is what I'm doing right now. Just finished the governing central of Aeria's exterior.

Screenies...


--------V






Off to interiors now. This might be a pain.

[modern algebra]

Those are some nice maps. Good job, and good luck with the interiors.

[Rune]

One question... how long does it take you to make a good map?

[Irgna]

Those screenies look awsome. Keep up the good work.
