  1. Intersect to RPG Maker would be silly, since RPG Maker can do much more than Intersect can atm for single player games. The reason behind my question is simple, I've never seen many "orpg maker" games to make money in order to pay for the server, but I've seen many to fail because they had no reason to keep their server up, just like this community, maybe without the donations and low population, JC would take it down. It would be interesting to see a LAN or Multiplayer mode, using something like Tunngle to connect to eachother or if you know what to do, then portforward yourself, and be able to trade and whatever, something like Torchlight, Grim Dawn, etc. Instead keeping the server up, and paying it just for 2~3 players to play ur game.
  2. I see more and more games here, and that's good, but uhm guys, why do you pick up names that won't fit at all with the graphic style?! [good thing at least for this, that is just a placeholder]
  3. Would be awesome, oh and Rory, rpg maker ain't free, tho I do have MV, I don't really feel like working with it, somehow indie stuff motivates me enough to work on something or to play whatever.
  4. Hello there, I know all the works goes into making a mmorpg maker, though, would be awesome to have a SinglePlayer+LAN version of the engine, since having a server could be pretty expensive. Is there any chance for this to happen or it would be too hard?
  5. Please, don't tell my mom :(

  6. Because deodorants are not meant to block sweat, but to lower the number of bacterias causing the bad smell. Antiperspirants on the other hand are something else, and they have most of the ingredients used in the above product, like Aluminum Chlorohydrate
  7. I know what those means actually, thank you, nothing really new under the sun, but I'm glad it works for you.
  8. Interesting, could you please post the ingredients? [all of them, please] I'm really curious. Thank you!
  9. MV would be awesome with an updater and a LAN plugin, no need for mmo, because, let's be serious, if u want to make a mmorpg, u will need money and good ideas, and more money, else everything u make is just a hobby game, it won't matter for anyone other than ur mom and friends.
  10. Most probably it will have a checkbox M and F, blank means it's equipable by both, or 3 checkboxes M, F and Both Tho, the paperdoll thingie idea, it's great too, hmm maybe easier, instead creating 2 separate equipments, u create one and if equipped by a male player it uses the male paperdoll. Hmmmmm interesting
  11. That is worse, better stick with the official meaning other than interpretations
  12. Use of the term "sprite" has expanded to refer to any two-dimensional bitmap used as part of a graphics display - Wikipedia
  13. I will host your server for free, if you pay me. :-*

      Hmm.. Seems fair c:!

      Seems legit 

  14. I haven't found ONE tactical battle plugin, at least not complete, there is 1, but it ain't complete, very early in development. Could you please link to me some, cuz oh boy, I searched, haha and couldn't find
  15. I suggest you to try the Demo, then buy it if you're happy with it. I have the engine, it's great, though I expected more from them, like a tactical battle system this time, instead of the old turn based one, meh.
  16. Pixel Art is a great way to learn things, mainly because of its limitations. Use whatever techinique you feel it's easier for you, like drawing something dot by dot and line by line [wireframe like], or drawing filled shapes and chop the pixels until you get the wanted shape [shape sculpting], you can use both at the same time, depends on what you're drawing.
  17. Yes, you need to save it as png or jpg, gif, bmp
  18. Raster graphics, also called bitmap graphics, are digital images that are composed of tiny rectangular pixels, or picture elements, that are arranged in a grid or raster of x and y coordinates (includes a z coordinate in case of 3D) in such a way that it forms an image. Vector graphics is the use of polygons to represent images in computer graphics. Vector graphics are based on vectors, which lead through locations called control points or nodes. Each of these points has a definite position on the x and y axes of the work plane and determines the direction of the path; further, each path may be assigned various attributes, including such values as stroke color, shape, curve, thickness, and fill. On raster when you zoom you can see the pixels which forms that image, but on vector images you can zoom how much you like and scale the image and it will never lose anything or deform. In the image below you see that the raster line is made of many pixels, while the vector line is made from 2 anchor points. By tablets I mean Graphic Tablets, I corrected that on the original post for a better understanding, google Graphics Tablet or take a look on Youtube to see how one looks and works.
  19. First of, I should mention that I'm an artist now for more than 22 years, half of that number was spent doing traditional art like drawing on paper, painting, etc. The other half was spent working digitally, and I got asked a lot by people, how can they start with art, is it hard, can anyone do it? My answer was always a "Yes", you can do it, but needs to put some work in order to achieve some nice results. Some Q&A - This is not a tutorial about how to draw stuff, it's more about how to get started and what to do in some cases. I never tried drawing/ never tried seriously, I suck at this, can I get to be good at this or even pro? Yes, it doesn't matter, everything depends on your brain, eyes collect the informations and send them to the brain, the brain tries to recognise the patterns, the more you train aka draw, the better the results will be, also you will train your hand which will make things easier to control. There are no people with talent and people without, it all depends on the brain like I mentioned, some people recognise better different patterns, like those used in math or whatever, but the brain can be trained and things can be learned. What softwares should I use first? Whoa, hold on cowboy, you first need to draw on paper, and the reason for this is mentioned above, to understand shapes and to imagine shapes, to have control by training your hand, in order to draw whatever you imagined. Of course you can start directly digitally, but then you will miss the best parts, also, the harder it is, the better it is for you, on paper you don't have Undo, Copy/Paste and such, you're limited, and that is good, because you need to think more of how the shape you're drawing needs to look, once you get used you won't need to erase stuff so often. What are the important things I should know or do? The most important one is to Observe, observe the world around you, the objects, the lights and shadows, the colors, how everything is arranged, observe the perspective, the depth, and so on. Replicate the rules you've just seen in nature, try experimenting yourself with your own sources of light, materials and such, by materials I mean things like glass, metals, wood, clothes, etc. At first, use pencils, do not use colors yet, you need to be able to handle the shading of objects based on what you've observed in nature and in your own experiments. After you managed to understand the above things, start experimenting with colors, buy some cheap kids painting colors, try mixing them, see the results and such, then learn more about colors by reading books or from the internet. Sketching is also important, you can use lines or stains, see which is more comfortable with you, ofc you can use both. Another important thing is Composition, how you arrange stuff on the canvas, and trust me, things looks better when they're properly arranged and have more to it than chaos, google more about this and also about Golden Ratio. I want to go digital, any advices? The basic rules from traditional applies in digital aswel. Digitally you don't have so many limitations like you have on paper, you can work faster and also use your work for different purposes other than to be admired. I'd recommend getting used with some softwares, like you would get used with pencils and brushes. What are the best softwares to use? Whatever you feel comfortable with, a tool doesn't make the artist, neither its art better, but it can make the workflow faster, depends on which software you like and what you're trying to achieve. Like on paper you should learn to use more than just 1 tool, meaning, digitally you should learn to work with more than just 1 software. What are the important things I should know or do? Again, observe, take a look on the internet, see others work, style and techniques. Learn about Raster and Vector, see what can you achieve with both, take also a look at 3D modelling, rendering and such, it's always good to have alternatives when working on something. Work with Layers, save your work frequently and you can also save separate copies just in case. Do not copy and edit someone's work, it's ok to look and see the details and understand the technique, but never plagiate, or edit and say it's ur work! Mouse or Graphic Tablet? My answer is, what you are the most comfortable with. But, I'd recommend using a mouse when working with Vectors, because you work mainly with shapes and lines and you can easily manipulate those shapes or lines by dragging and moving the anchor points. On the other hand, when you work with Raster, I'd recommend using a tablet, it's easier to control the lines and shapes you're making, like drawing on paper. Of course, you can use both mouse and tablet at the same time, like I do in some cases like when drawing in Adobe Animate [aka Adobe Flash], I draw the characters and correct some lines by mouse, since those are vector based. In PixelArt I'd recommend using a mouse, you need precision, same for 3D modelling, but of course you can say otherwise and do it with a tablet or whatever technology exists nowadays. Tutorials or no tutorials? Tutorials are good, but you shouldn't replicate stuff, you need to understand the core of what the tutorial wants to teach you, so you could create your own things other than replicate step by step and in the end to be confused on how the hell you created that or how the hell it ain't looking like in the tutorial. If you have any questions feel free to post them and I will gladly answer. Btw, why is creating such a large gap when writing on a new line? It's just ugly
  20. Are you using an engine or? I'm interested in making a 3D game myself, got pretty bored of pixel art and 2D stuff. Oh, and the game looks awesome so far, nice work.
  21. Like I said, I never had any problem, and I have 13 laptops old and new ones, and 4 PCs, never had any problem, I mean from all of those, one should have had some problems like you mentioned you have, but they didn't. So, I have no idea what are you talking about, you better be more careful what you download and what you allow to install, atm I'm using this laptop which is 2 years old, I have no antivirus, but from time to time I do download malwarebytes and check if there are any, and guess what, none detected. Everything runs smoothly and nice, and I admit that I download a lot of games and torrents, how come I didn't get any viruses yet? I have a friend who just bought a nice laptop and windows 10, in 2 days, she came back to me saying to fix her laptop, I scanned for viruses and I was like WTF gurl, she had over 5000 viruses, those were so nasty viruses that they always found a way to get back in, also she must have thought that the "Unistaller" was going to uninstall whatever she installed, but it was an installer and installed more viruses and more stuff and those with their own "uninstall" trick. Windows has no fault that she got so many viruses and I had to wipe out everything, it's her fault for being such a noob. It's like those scam websites, where they tell you that you can win cash fast, but you end up losing money. It's not that internet sucks or those websites, it's those people who fall for it.
  22. It's free until July 29, so you better hurry my friend! @Gibier I never had any problem with windows 10, 7 or XP, it's funny how you mention that it has shitty this and that, probably you don't even know anything about windows and just collected from the internet the negative comments and whatever fit to make you feel good. Windows is alright, not perfect, though it is your opinion, no matter how much you know about windows, firewall and other things, and there is my opinion about your opinion. Have a nice day!
  23. I feel nostalgic here with all the engine updates and domain name, it's awesome, though, I hate myself for not having the will to work on a project...:'(

  24. Don't worry it will work, it works on my old mini laptop with 1gb of ram from 2009 Minimum specs Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster processor or SoC RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) for 32-bit or 2 GB for 64-bit Hard disk space: 16 GB for 32-bit OS 20 GB for 64-bit OS Graphics card: DirectX 9 or later with WDDM 1.0 driver Display: 800x600 ^This is taken from microsoft
  25. It's not a remake of Ragnarok, tho the game looks nice, has a pretty ok story, I don't like the limitations of this game, to be able to buy from Auction House you need level 40, to put more than 1 item in the AH you need a Token, to be able to trade you need a Token, and so on. Also the benefits of them tokens, the game lacks many costumes and cosmetics, they could've gone with that method of making money and supporter shit, with some stuff like, more bank space, more shared bank space, etc. I'm waiting for private servers, I'd rather donate to support the servers out of respect for their work than to pay only to lift up some useless limitations, which only drives away players and definetely don't stop bots and RMTs. I got bored around level 80-ish
