Oi! Long time no see ya'll! No, no new updates for TF, EXCEPT I NOW have an overworld tileset for Makai, so I COULD start working on the game again...COULD, except I got a schedule I'm following. The order is going to be vid playthroughs for DKC2, DKC3, and then Earthbound to round things off, and THEN work on TF. So expect work to be in about a month or so!
In other news, still need more beta testers, to make sure all bugs are cleared out (for those that's already played through the game, I would highly suggest using the debug room for further testing, to find errors and such). I am ALSO looking for people who are interested in doing a LP or review for this game. I know that's asking quite a bit, but hey! Can't hurt to ask right?!
(Cant hurt to ask) LOL true...
(overworld tileset for Makai) Do I smell a Final Fantasy IV reference?
Xenomic... I have pretty much a suggestion to give you but I made a Teleportation system that basically you use the cursor to go to one place you desire... I'll tell you on how to make it if you wish...
(For Example: You select Hakurei Shrine and then you get taken to the Hakurei Shrine on the overworld map)
I also done a Time and Date system as well... Basically it's a Parallel Process where it's based on a realistic time system... I also done a day & night routine as a Parallel Process... You start at 9pm as a clear day then once it hits Midnight (24 Hour) It goes all dark... The times go 3am, 6am, 9am, 12am, 3pm, 6pm, 9pm and (24) So It makes 8 different times and then the hue of the screen changes as well to give a realistic feeling... (You can freeze the timer if you wish when it comes to entering a dungeon, Also best to put it a common event to make things faster than placing it all over the maps...)
The last thing I want to tell you is on how to make natural unlockables... It's another parallel process you put in a common events you don't need a switch to activate it of course... But you've got to make branches!
For example:
Branch if Variable: [0001:Alice Dolls]: 50
Branch if Switch: [0001:Alternate Ending]: OFF
Message: You have collected all 50 Alice dolls! Congratulations, You have earned "The Seeker of Alice"
Switch: [0001:Alternate Ending]: ON
Now you could make more than one achievements... Like maxing out money or collecting every single item in the world... But it's usually best to make sure it's worth doing for like unlocking an extra or phantasm side story... But how you make awards is completely up to you... I'm giving you things that I worked hard on figuring out...
