Paper Mario Pocket!

Look for letter by letter in the script section, it's quite a few pages back. If you are using XP, this will be a BIG help. Otherwise, look at the sticky for message codes, I don't remember the exact address, but I KNOW there is one around here somewhere...

Heh. I should have posted later in the day... I found an AMS (Advanced Message Script) over at Creation Asylum. It's awesome. It allows me to implement custom player names, and pictures instead of names to show who is talking. It's SO much better. Thank goodness for RMXP's scripting feature!

It is pretty frickin' sweet...

Teej · October 12, 2006, 05:06:15 PM

So, who do you guys think should be the party member I'm letting you decide on? Should it be free-for-all, or should I give choices?

Arrow · October 12, 2006, 05:09:13 PM

F.F.A., yo.

Maybe make it a piranha plant? Or a buzzy beetle? I'm gettin' a little sick of "generic troopa" character m'self.

Teej · October 12, 2006, 05:10:49 PM

Hmm... I was hoping for it to be a cameo appearance. Maybe Rawk Hawk as I suggested earlier?

Arrow · October 12, 2006, 05:12:09 PM

Oh yeah! Hmm...You should use him. IN ADDITION: maybe use bombette for a small part of the story? Then you could do a sort of tag team attack between her and Bobbery.

Teej · October 12, 2006, 05:17:48 PM

Yeah! I like that! I did like Bobbery better than Bombette, though. He had a deeper past. I think I'll put him in briefly.

Also, I'm doing, like four sidestories along with the main Mario story. Not all are playable, but they are as follows:

First, you see a brief cutscene with Wart (the main bad guy) yelling at his minions, and planning his next attack.

Second, you play as Drowzina, the princess of Subcon (play on the word drowsy, as Subcon is the land of dreams)

Third, there is a cutscene/playtime as Bowser and Kammy Koopa

Fourth, you play as Luigi, Peach, and Norman, the Chain Chomp.

Then, it's back to Mario. This all happens at the end of a chapter. I'm introducing all kinds of characters that I made, as well as bringing back old favorites. Expect an appearance from:

*SPOILERS!!!*
General Guy
King Boo
Lady Bow
Bootler
Mouser
Birdo
Clawgrip
Triclyde
And many more!
*End Spoilers*

So, yeah. It looks to be pretty awesome. So, arrowone, you think Rawk Hawk would be a good party member? Cause I would LOVE writing dialogue for him!

Arrow · October 12, 2006, 05:52:49 PM

Yeah, he would! Easy comic relief to say the least.

Teej · October 13, 2006, 01:08:42 AM

Well, then, if nobody objects...

RAWK HAWK joined your party!

Rawk Hawk's Abilities: A Primer:

Rawk Hawk can use his Rawk Sawk to punch a single enemy (Basic attack). He can also use his Rawk Hock to toss himself at an enemy for heavy damage.

Later on, (By leveling up. I decided to use leveling up for learning new moves, because then they can learn more moves! No Super or Ultra Rank!) Rawk Hawk can learn moves such as (but not limited to)

Rawk Your World: Rawk Hawk attacks all enemies for confusion!

Rawk Knock: Rawk Hawk bashes all enemies for heavy damage!

Rawk Clawk: Rawk Hawk uses a special power to inflict the "imobilized" status change!

Rawk Wawk: Rawk Hawk forces an enemy to run from the battle (If it works!).

Rawk Tawk: Rawk Hawk uses pep-talk to increase Mario's HP

Rawk Blawk: Rawk Hawk gains the "Guard" status change, wherein he does not take damage for one turn.

So, yeah. I even had fun coming up with the names for his attacks! Rawk Hawk is going to make this game RAAAAWWWWWK!

Arrow · October 13, 2006, 01:40:41 AM

My favorite character from that game...

HEY. You should bring back Miss Mowze. Or did you all ready?

Teej · October 13, 2006, 03:25:22 AM

I was planning to! I'm just looking for a place to fit her in. I don't know about her being a party member, as she was kind of weak, but she will definitely make an appearance!

Morris Lawry · October 14, 2006, 01:42:09 PM

I neaver really liked mario, i mean he's cool but i liked sonic better

Arrow · October 14, 2006, 01:43:42 PM

Please don't spam project topics.

Morris Lawry · October 14, 2006, 01:49:39 PM

hmmmmmm Mario . . .

Teej · October 14, 2006, 06:06:00 PM

Seriously? I like Sonic too, but I was into Mario first (when I was 3) and Sonic second(When I was 5). I may do a Sonic RPG after this one, but I do like Sonic a lot. In fact... I may like him so much, that I can't stand to leave him out of this game...

Arrow · October 14, 2006, 06:07:36 PM

Hey...don't do that. Not cool.

"Gotta keep 'em seperated."

Malson · October 14, 2006, 08:44:01 PM

Super Smash Bros. Brawl has a good chance of featuring Sonic, according to Miyamoto.

Why's that? It's actually really cool the way I worked him in. You'll see.

Arrow · October 15, 2006, 02:04:12 AM

I just...uh. K.

Morris Lawry · October 15, 2006, 03:15:06 AM

Oh my how dare you leave out sonic if you do BURRRRRN in a pit of eterna flames of unhappyness

Don't worry. He will be in there. You WILL have to find him, but if you do, you get an awesome reward for beating him and Tails in battle...

Malson · October 16, 2006, 01:04:15 AM

Well, if it's just a turn-based generic battle, that'll be no fun. There should be some kind of real-time competition instead. Donkeys are cool.

Hmm...Well, I would LOVE to put in the Action Command like in Paper Mario 1 and 2, but I can't seem to find a script for it. If you can find one, let me know. Otherwise, it's going to be a lot like the early stages of Paper Mario 1. But don't worry. Even if the battles aren't exciting, the story will be.

Argh, whens the demo gonan be out?!
