~Howling Winds~

I'm new to the forums but not new to RPG Maker so this time, for my first project, I wanted to start from scratch. First off befor I show Screen shots I'm gonna give credit to the places and people I used resources from

(To be continued)

*NEW*
This my intro movie thingy I made. It was suppost to be for the movie thingy I was gonna make of me and my friends on FFXI but it works just as good for my game 



Ok, now I won't have a Demo for awhile thanks to school slowing me down =.=; but I'm working really hard on it so I hope to have a demo out in a few weeks. I also plan on making a Theme movie thingy thats about 3mins long or so. I'll keep you updated on progress ^^

the monster in the first screenie looks weird
and ur making it on xp right?
its looks good, i wait for the demo

lol yeah that monster looks funni, kinda like a turnip or summin , sounds good, ill wait for demo too, when do u fink it will be up? needs a storyline tho, try to fink and post one...

The graphics are all neat and cool, and then you go and toss in a little RTP charset.  It just doesn't match.

Also, HURRAH for Phanx Games and Blue Laguna.

When I was looking for resources I found on Phanx there is a lot more map chip thingys for 2k/3  and I did want to test that converter thingy out  I don't think it's that bad. Plus I wanted a world map. So this is also my first world map I'm making.

Did you use a 3D chao sprite as the base for that monster!!!!!!!!!!!

The program I use to get Screen shots of the monster and characters for my game I use is called a Model Viewer. It's made from Final Fantasy XI, so what you fined in my game is also on FFXI. If there are any FFXI players out there they can easly tell what the monster is in the battle Screen shot ^^b.

Here is a Screen shot of the model viewer. If you want the program I have the link on the top in my first post.



NOTE: I think you have to have FFXI installed to use the model viewer. It runs the .dats from the game folders :/
