Title: HardLight Production RPG
Post by: TheCelestialOne on April 22, 2003, 09:42:08 am
Well, now that Celestia had a complete story breakdown Tiara and I are considering to make a HLP RPG. But we are only willing to do so if you guys want this. That way it can be a community project.

We can incorporate people from the board into the game (Example: an0n being the uber evil genocidal maniac). We can incorporate things like the Hammer of Justice as a skill. The Welcome Beam as magic :p.

And ofcourse anybody can contribute by making chipsets, character sets etc. You can create your own character  for in the game :D

This would be a not-so-serious and hopefully hilarious RPG kinda game. :) So don't expect Final Fantasy stuff.

What we will need if we are going to do this:

- Story/dialog writer (Requirements: Good knowledge of the English language and good story writing skills.)
- Community support: (Requirements: Be a HLP member)

What would be nice:

- Costum graphics created by yourself. (Stryke can be an evil Zombie for all I care :p)

i'll play, but i can't log on each day to write my part.

if that's not a problem, i'll take the role as medic UT gave me in his story, i kinda liked that.

:blah: I think you missed the point here :D

We want to create an actual RPG. Not a story debate like NodeWars. No an actual RPG like my original project Celestia. ;7

[color=66ff00]It wouldn't feel right in the FF world. You'd need something more Freespace-ish and that would require a lot of artwork.

Unless of course you intend to just have the HLP denizens as characters in a non FS related RPG?

A). It was just an example, I could make it sci-fi as well.

B). That is an option, but I don't know what would be best since making good sci-fi graphics for a 2D engine is quite hard. So, a non-FS related is easier to do, but I don't know what you guys want :p

I'll be the evil d00d's henchman, bombing the heroes at the most inappropriate times, delaying them from knowing important plot details. :D

Example:

Supporting Good Guy: "Well, I shouldn't tell you this, but... it's about my past..."
Main good guy: "What about your past?"
*KABOOM!!*
MB: "Bwahaha! I return to make your life miserable!"
Comic Relief Good Guy: "Thank god you interrupted when you did, I can't stand flashbacks."

Anyone wanting to be in this apply and say what you want your chara to be. (Don't make it too absurd though... No giants etc. Ghouls, orcs, elves, humans etc are acceptable)

Not the way I did it for StarCraft Taking shots of 3d models at different angles), but I don't know how applicable that would be to whatever engine you're planning on using.

BTW, who would be the main character? I'd have to be like, random newbie 17 so as to avoid meeting oneself in the game..

I'm going to watch this thread fairly closely - how much time would be required of one of the story writing dudes?

*Cries about his distinct lack of distinguishing features*

I have no way of getting in :P

3d shots in this engine looks dumb with 3d charas walking side to side and up and down only.

Main chara? Well, I'm thinking of doing something like in FF6 where the group splits up and there are different stories to tell and eventually they come together. After that I'm just going to try and give everyone some attention.

Story writing can be pretty lengthy...

Eh, i can make you a black wolf?

Stryke 9 is a mysterious voice in your head that tells you when some trouble is coming and gives hints on how to solve problems, all while *****ing at you and telling you that you'd better ****ing hurry up.

Ryder P. Moses is Ryder P. Moses, in a slightly different setting. See "I-80 Nebraska M.490-M.205".


Or wait. Tell me this isn't going to be some weak-ass fantasy RPG. Make it Fallouty, more dark than light and

to drive
you mad, with all the cutesy little purple and blue monsters and little girl heroes with blue hair.

Also....
You should use (if it's going to be online, and you don't want to make an entirely new terrain set) some screencaptures from Starcraft or Homeworld or something. Something higher than 16 colors :D Sorry if it's been suggested ;)

And, what would it be in? I'm thinking a station, but that's just me.

Oh, yea, how would this work? Would it be more like Utopia? Or maybe TDZK?

And you can be whatever you want to be.

And you will see all, fantasy worlds, uber space statetions, bordellos etc.

as i said, i can'thelp with the story,but can you useme to help with graphics?

i'd especially like to help with designing sations and things like that, however, i've never done something like this before.

my ewxperience here:

PSP, making picture tubes and editing photos, especially converting and preparing for web/printing

TrueSpace, openening a model, still working on the moving around things.

Flash, haven't used it in 2 years, but with some practice, i might be able to use it.

OtherPrograms, mmm, i've got most packages, but can't really use them.

desining buildings, one project in school, and lego(when i was 7

Funny story idea:

Something revoving around modelers being poisoned by some kind of virus in truespace causing them all to go mad & try to take over the world. Player could run around and "rescue" them, and have them join the party.

(that would be funny...I know stryke isn't a modeler, but what would a singing dancing heroin needle do in a fight?)

This program is designed to create Role-Playing Games (RPGs), a popular game genre.

With a user-friendly graphical interface which allows the user to customise all aspects of the game, it is easy to produce a real game with no knowledge of programming.

RPG Maker 2003 comes with its own library of graphics and sounds, called the "run time package" or RTP. This allows the user to begin creating games immediately. Of course, original materials may also be used.

It is not necessary to have RPG Maker 2003 installed to play games made with it.

Eh, well... either with the story (but you need very good english skills for that) or graphics. But the latter is already occupied.

You can however create your own sprites.

Well here’s my character. I tried my best, but I’m no pixel artist, so I just knocked a few of the existing ones together, altered the hue and put a hat on. I did alter the face slightly so that it’s not identical. As you can see, I have made many variations, with different coloured robes, and different hats. I have yet to decide which is the best.

(http://www.3dap.com/hlp/hosted/14_year_war/PoVBB/petrarcharcomplete.png)

I am going to make a selection of hats, and put them up for download, so that anyone working on one of these characters can simply put the hat straight on. All you have to do is set your background colour to pure red (in PSP, this is) and then paste as transparent selection. The hats can then go straight onto the characters’ heads. I have made the following hats so far: Bowler, TopHat, Beefeater/Gondolier, Stetson, BaseballCap, and Glinsk. (a Glinsk is a tall furry hat that politicians buy to go to Moscow in)

All the hats will be in png format, because I get unwanted anti-aliasing with jpg, and most other formats would be too large. I have zipped them, and they can be found here (www.3dap.com/hlp/hosted/14_year_war/PoVBB/HPLRPGHats.zip)

EDIT: Bugger! This is the first time I've looked at them at 1:1 zoom! You can't make out the detail! I hope this game will be fairly low-res.

Eh, Petrarch, its supposed to have 4 character (4*3=12 poses) horizontally and 3 chars (3*3=9 poses) vertically.

Example:

(http://members.lycos.nl/axxxewielder/charagrid.txt)
Use this to place your characters. The lines are just a guide, they should be deleted when you are done.



:)

Though very nice sprites :D

Ow and here's a peek at how they look in game:

The left blue haired guy is the default hero in the engine, didn't care to make it transparent for this screenie. The right char is a sprite WIP for Kasperl.

It could be set all over the place for that matter.  You could use shuttles for transport between ships, stations, and planets.  I think it'd be cool to have :v: and user-made ships as "levels" that one could interact with in some way.

Every so often an Active Time Event prompt will show up, and upon selecting it players will get to look in on what another character is doing. It really helps flesh out all of the characters’ personalities and is an interesting feature.

I’ve finally decided on my character, and have made a couple of new hats, a flat cap and a fez, for your character-creation pleasure. My choice of character stems from my hat construction, as when I made the flat cap cap, I put in on one of the robed figures, and my dad said that it looked like Fidel Castro! I simply thought “why not” and developed this idea, thus.
(http://www.3dap.com/hlp/hosted/14_year_war/PoVBB/PetrarcharPref.png)

What think you of it?

BTW, here is a link to the new hats, along with all the old ones, in a new all singing, all dancing, all slowly-rocking-backwards-and-forwards-whilst-humming-the-Battle-Hymn-Of-The-Republic, zip file!

Hats, so many, many hats (http://www.3dap.com/hlp/hosted/14_year_war/PoVBB/HLPRPGHats.zip)

And just for the sake of it, Tommy Cooper!

Here’s another sprite for your pleasure! If you are finding hard to do the three frames required to have a walking animation for your character, then why not put them on a SegWay? Here’s one I made, just make sure that you have your character already in place, with all three frames identical, and paste the SegWay over them! Make sure your background colour is set to purest blue, of course.

And so you know I’m not bluffing, here’s my latest masterpiece, “Fidel’s new toy”
(http://www.3dap.com/hlp/hosted/14_year_war/PoVBB/fidelsegway.png)

And here (http://www.3dap.com/hlp/hosted/14_year_war/PoVBB/segway.png) is the SegWay.

I have also made a proper uniform for Fidel, so if I could have this sprite instead of the last one, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Tiara, can I be a good Guy? Black Wolf is fine (though a were would probably be preferable) - Psionic powers'd be a plus too - they work whether it's sci fi or fantasy. Hmmm - possibly having something to do with Silverwolf also... Arch nemesis or summat :D

BTW - you never answered me - how much time would a story writer need to put in per week? I'm pretty good with English (native language after all) and I do like to write, but I'm kinda busy...

And yes, ATE was pretty cool, as was the FF6 system where things were happening all at once, and you had to choose which one to play through.

Title pic will be done by sheepy. I meant chara pics.

Tell me what chara you wanna draw and I'll give the description. (Through PM prefferably)

@Razor: No. Don't ask again please :p Got enough work to do as it is. Once a character is done I will contact you. :)

@Holy: Err.. You want to be the dreaded red X[/color]? :p

And some more things:

It has come to my attention that some of you are under the impression that you will play as yourself. Wrong. The main chara is not a real board member. You play that character and encounter other board members. Including yourself ;).

However, your chara will (for the good guys) be part of your party. Also, there can be some exceptions to this and I might have some of the characters be playable ;)

I don't ask for a different story line for each character. I can amke my own destiny. I think it would just be cool to have an option where you can choose your character to play with. What if a playable character is a girl. :shaking:

Post by: Tiara on May 02, 2003, 02:31:18 pm
For each character I'd have to create new dialog, new events fitting that particular character. Everything added up its practically a new storyline.

... Whats so bad about the main chara being a girl (which it won't be)? In every FF I've played the main chara is a guy. (Besides a part of FF6)
Title: HardLight Production RPG
Post by: kode on May 02, 2003, 02:58:49 pm
girl characters are generally underrepresented in games, so I for one can't see a reason for this one not to even the scores a little. or something. not that the gender of the main character is really important, imo.
Title: HardLight Production RPG
Post by: Tiara on May 02, 2003, 03:03:55 pm
I've been thinking. It is possible to let you play as yourself. However, the way I plan it, the story would be the same as when you play an unknown character.

As an alternative I could implement a chara builder. Which would allow you to choose between characters and give them personalities, choose which weapons they use etc.

Its your choice. I'd prefer the latter :)
Title: HardLight Production RPG
Post by: Amon_Re on May 02, 2003, 03:09:43 pm
My vote goes for the latter too Tiara, btw, i've been thinking for a sidestory for my char, if & when i write it, where do i send it to?

To you in a PM?

Yup, to me in a PM. But I can't garantee that your sidestory will get into the game though. I'll try to add it, but I can't be sure.

Why not base a game upon a time honoured and often used cliche that's neither fun to play, is barely art in any form and shows absolutely no attempt to bring anything new to the genre? We could even use a character that's both morally suspect and has remarkable.... physical attributes. Now there's a money spinner if ever I heard one. Lets base it in a brothel and have skateboards as the main mode of transportation.

I'm going to have a shower; I reek of scorn. :D

You've been mass playing RS3 eh? :p I say the latter if you can manage a reasonable depth of story/personality with that (in RS3 the characters don't have too much personality, makes them boring).
Title: HardLight Production RPG
Post by: Tiara on May 04, 2003, 02:51:00 pm
I was planning to give you the choice of the following:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gender:
- Male
- Female

Personality
- Heroic (Uber-good guy who will fight evil anywhere. EVIL BEWARE!)
- Wuss (Good guy, but always tries to avoid fighting and stuff.)
- Nerd (Very smart guy. His/her intelligence is used in battle)
- Daredevil (Backs down for nothing. Very careless and doesn't side with either good or evil unless he himself is involved somehow)

Job:
In case of Heroic personality:
- Enlightened monk
- Paladin (White Knight)
In case of Wuss personality:
- King's Fool
- Chimp
In case of Nerd personality:
- Professor
- Wizard
In case of Daredevil personality:
- Dragon Slayer
- Thief

Weapons (these are starting weapons, other kinds of weapons can be attained):
In case of Heroic personality & monk job:
- None (Martial arts)
- Iron stick
In case of Heroic personality & Paladin job:
- Broadswords
- Energy sabers
In case of Wuss personality & King's fool:
- Folding 10-foot pole
- Bells
In case of Wuss personality & Chimp job:
- Banana
In case of Nerd personality & Wizard job:
- Staff
- Magic Rod
In case of Nerd personality & Prof. job:
- Laser gun
- Beam gun
In case of Daredevil personality & Dragon Slayer job:
- Lance
- 2-sided sword
In case of Daredevil personality & Thief job:
- 2x4
- Claws

Looks:
- Will be determined by job
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This would give me more then enough variables to get out a nice character story.

Updated with bigger wings, a hood and a few minor fixes in other places

(//HTTP://WWW.WESTNET.COM.AU/GWEBER/IMAGES/SHEEPY2.GIF)

Kode - OK, fairly simple changes to make, but I'll also make some more complex ones - change the hair, maybe alter the shape of the face (the beard will be useful for that) and stuff so that it doesn't look like a Gortef in disguise.

Free Terran - If it was done, I'd have posted it. I haven't had much success with capes and stuff though - the walking motion's a bit too complex for me at this stage - so I might leave those ones to Tiara for the moment.
Title: HardLight Production RPG

Just to annoy you some more, would it be possible to conceal the face some what and make him look less like an angelic knome? :D

Any more face coverage and it might be difficult to discern much. The expression makes him look kinda evil, but it was the only way I could get him to look not bright eyed and bushy tailed without changing the colour.

Any more changes, post em up and I'll deal with 'em tomorrow. I'm going to bed :D.

BTW, Tiara, I made a very slight modifiction to my character (moved the 4 eye pixels in each profile shot up one pixel) so if you've already chucked him in, could you do the same? If not, then just copy the Black Wolf image posted before - it's been updated.

Eh, not like that. As I said earlier, thats a game feature. You get to create your own character (to a degree).

Just give me a description how your chara will look in game (also, remember that you won't play as yourself, but as the char you create at the start of the game)

Yes. Is it so hard?



BTW - if you were referring to the characters I did for Myself, Gortef and Sheepy then yes, you are correct, they were done quickly. So? Those two were lucky - Gortef provided an easy picture to work from and Sheepy asked directly. My own sprite was, for obvious reasons, done by me with priority.

If you want a charcter NOW, then do it NOW. Nobody's stopping you and they aren't all that hard.

Wow! Awesome! I'm making a game with RPGMaker2003, I have 5 sprite artists, and I'm am programmer/storyline maker.

I would be very willing to help out, as I am pretty qualified having worked with RPGM2003.

I have studied QuickBASIC, Darkbasic, Pascal, AGI, SCI, and am currently learning C/C++.

If I would be a character in this game, I would want to be that super paladin who saves the main character over and over, but is saved by the main character at the end.

If you would like to see my things, go to www.xpertstudios.com (http://www.xpertstudios.com).

Thanky you,
David.

(i just love slacking off ;)  )

EDIT: Restarted doing rpg char art, that includes ALL the people on the list (you included kasperl, whether you like it or not)..

one question to Venom and Holy imperial Gloriano: What Alignment are you guys (since you're knights and such) y'know good/evil ? i'm thinking of doing you guys in the one image...

and kasperl, your choice of weapon will be a DX-53 Parlyser Rifle...(i made it up) it shoots drug filled taser darts...., also for small arms, a stun gun...

ah well, could as well give you one of my own designs:
(http://www.swooh.com/premium/venom/variouspics/weapons.jpg)

the one to do is Godfang ( first from the left ).
it's a two-handed sword, but light enough so it can be used as a one handed sword as well, so no problem, keep the actual handle.

'Tis fine, though if you're in the mood to redraw ( ;) ) Shorter, more triangular ears, and a more angular muzzle would own. :D But if that's too picky, it's pretty damned fine as is too.

i dunno, i try to make them look 'as realistic' as possible (mind's eye is such a wonderful thing) you can see what i'm getting at though...

anyway.. you said your character was some sort of psychic or magic-user or somesuch? if so... imagine a neat glowy photoshop effect on the outstretched hand(err,...  paw:p)

in the meantime, i'll leave you with the redrawn silverwolf sketch...

looky, tower shield :) you gotta admit it's not the most complicated thing ever ;) the thing is very large btw (think romans, again. that really saves a lot of body drawing if you draw the character in a defensive pause, behind the shield, with the sword rised behind, ready to strike :)

Venom, you do realize that if you equip that ingame, you will be slower in battle (Not dodging well and takes longer to take a turn). This is due to the huge size of your shield and weight and stuff :p However, ytour defence will be upped and that usually covers the not dodging well part :)

Heh, your equipment will affect the gameplay ;7

Guys, I need some help... With item creation. I am using the stabndard Final Fantasy medicines like potion Hi-Poition and  ether etc. But I want you people to create items as well. Such as equipment, special items, offensive items (grenades/magical items like Thunder stone/etc), defensive items (Magic shield/ stone wall etc) All these itmes would be 1-time use items.

I need the following data on the items:

Name: (Obvious)
Type: (Medicine, weapon, shield, armor, helmet, accesory, magical [defensive], magical [offensive])
Special attributes: (If applicable. Things like Absorbs Lightning attacks or halves water attacks. If offensive things like effective against fire etc or negates armor)
Price: (If applicable. Some items cannot be bought only found)
Description: (No more then a few words)

Some notes:
- If it is a medicine please add what it cures or how much HP/MP it recovers.
- Also state wether its a battle item or non-battle item (or both)

Thx,

Tiara

Is it too late to join into this RPG thing?:nod: I've got a alot of freetime on my hands now (Actually more in two weeks), so I can help in someways relating to dialog or writing or whatever.
Ooh, and if its still possible to still add my character into to the rpg, basically all it would be is a Wringwraith looking thing. With a big sword. :D

Oh well, I'll go back to my cave...

We already have a basic plot. The dialog will come later when we actually start programming. And although this is a community project I don't want to make the story public for obvious reasons.

I might call upon you when I need help ;)

Tiara.. i've done a little pimping on your behalf (as well as pimping my own work:thepimp: )

Pawzco Forums (http://pawzco.hyperboards.com/index.cgi)

there are plenty of good artists that may be able to lighten your load as far as the sprites,etc are concerned...(if you don't mind of course.. and who knows they might reg here ;) )

check the concept pics in your FS1 cd ( in don't remember which VP file ), plenty of shivan drawings ;)
if I could make a 3d shivan, it's because there IS material available ;)

So, I've been MIA from HLP for awhile and I found this thread, I might be interested in it but no chance I'm reading 25 pages...

Can I get a summary of what this is all about? :)
Title: HardLight Production RPG
Post by: Tiara on July 08, 2003, 04:46:59 am
Well, here's a small summarization:

TCO and I thought up this project. We wanted, with the help of the community ofcourse, to put the community into an RPG (Like Final Fanstasy 6). It will be a platform single player game, not a online multiplayer or text based game like NW.

Turnsky is doing the art for the game (See HLP RPG Art thread in the Art Forum).

Though currently my computer is giving me a hard time (I hate this :mad: )so I won't be able to do much.

You using RPGM2k? If so I can help with development in some way......

Otherwise, just stick me in as something...........I dunno...........the quiet but irritatingly powerful occasional party-joining sub character? :D:D
