Title: HLP RPG, The Reconstruction Era
Post by: Tiara on July 10, 2003, 05:33:47 am

With the death of the previous version of the RPG I am going to attemt to reconstruct the project. However, if this is going to work I need a few dedicated fellow-HLP'ers as its impossible right now for me to to the Charsets, storyline AND scripting.

I will need the following if you people want this project to continue:

- A (semi-)dedicated storywriter (well duh).
- 1 or 2 charset makers (ofcourse all already costum made charsets can be re-entered ;))

I will do the scripting by myself.

- Use the example posted below to place your charaters so they don't "float" ingame.

Use this to place your characters. The lines are just a guide, they should be deleted when you are done.

- Keep the BG the color it is (Green).
- Save in .png format

Well, don't know anything more to say. Questions? Please don't hesitate to ask. The sooner problems are gone the sooner I can get the game started :D

Free Terran, I could use a layout but I'd like to update and manage it myself. Its faster then having someone else be the webmaster ;) It'd be highly appreciated if you could provide me with a webdesign.

Nice :D

Ow, and there has been a change of plans... Well, maybe :p If UT allows it I want to get his story in a game. With changes ofcourse and added background etc. But I want to know if that is preffered over the previous plan.

(Remember, this only goes through if UT allows me to use his story ;))
