This will not be a sprite based game. Instead it will be similar to Summon Knights conversation mixed with Phoneix Wright.

Possible i might have a mock shot next week or closer.

It looks fine from what you've said. For the battle system, it doesn't seem clear. Is it like Ryusei no Rockman or Dragon Quest?
BTW- What do you mean by this?- This will not be a sprite based game. Instead it will be similar to Summon Knights conversation mixed with Phoneix Wright. Sorry but I just don't get what you mean. I do have an idea, though I'm not 100% sure if it's what you mean

BTW2- Just curious but what's Kinzoku mean?

[Kirby Pink]

Aight in Phoneix Wright you didnīt walk around. Instead you picked move to walk from one image to another. You could also examine stuff as well. This can be easily added to Rpg Maker Xp with a event maker. It is ALSO possible to add mouse support so it is similar.

http://www.dignews.com/admin/screenshoot/summon_night_gba_06.jpg
Thatīs how they talk.

[[fish in space]]

I don't get it. Are they like, walking pictures?

[Kirby Pink]

Walking? Um, ima make a mock shot or show what im talking about maybe that will clear things up.

Ah, that makes sense. That reminds me of Riviera: The Promised Land cause you do both those things in it with the same text box style(Then again, Riviera and Summon Night are made by the same people if I remember i right)
BTW- I already knew how they talk in summon night actually, I've played both the GBA SN's(haven't been able to find the other SN's for PS1 yet). Figured I'd ask but which SN's have you played? It's spelled Summon Night BTW, no K in the Night

I'll get Tuna's question since I think I get what you mean

@Tuna- Here's how it works(since Riviera moves alot like PW does)- Your character appears on the screen in a set area. Directional bars(in riviera) appear and you select one and move that way to another screen. You can see objects/people(in riviera, don't know about PW but it's probably similar) on the screen and select them to see what they are and initiate scenes in which you get the item.

KP- ^ That the general idea?

[Kirby Pink]

Ah,sorry my bad. Been a while since i played either.

http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/8184/conversatiopnzk2.png

This is how a conversation is.
Now when they donīt talk there will be 4 options.

Talk - Talk with person/s that is there
Examine - Check your surrondings for hidden items and jack in ports
Move - Move to other areas
Bag - Check your bag and equip parts

[The Walrus]

That'll work well. My only probably is that the battle system could seem a little odd

[Kirby Pink]

I wonīt change the one that is there. (Im lazy so sue me! 8D).
Just grab a Dragon Quest game and you will notice how it works.

[AeroMan]

BTW2- Just curious but what's Kinzoku mean?


Metal...so the name is Metal of MegaMan? Or another meaning is "continuous service" 0_0

[Kirby Pink]

Actully Megaman of the Metal if Sky got it right.

[The Walrus]

I wonīt change the one that is there. (Im lazy so sue me! 8D).

Played one before. It just might seem weird to BN fans(myself included) cause of what they're used to with the battle system

[Kirby Pink]

Unless you are willing to wait 5-9 years for me to make a battle system from scratch...It will be fine. ^_^;

[AeroMan]

Actully Megaman of the Metal if Sky got it right.


EDIT: you are right. Ryuusei No RockMan means RockMan of the Falling Star (or Meteor)

Pretty good name, but how does it go with the story?

[Kirby Pink]

Machine and Metal. Machines are made of metal. But, is just a temporary name for now.

Seems like a straight forward game. Sounds even interesting.

[Kirby Pink]

The demo is progressing smoothly and thanks to tek we got some more art up

So basically like Shadowgate, Uninvited, and Deja Vu?

[Kirby Pink]

Uuh never played those xD

[Kirby Pink]

A uptade so fear my double posting.
Nya nya! Boss! >: 3

[NetSaver.exe]

He reminds me of Bass. Kikia reminds me of a girl Zero.

[Kirby Pink]

King Reaper did some shade progress on Kikai. The demo wonīt come today as iīm still fixing some stuff with scripts and adding the examine option.
The Bag works tough ^^;

http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/7858/kikaiax1lc9.png

[Kirby Pink]

Uptade no post.
http://img166.imageshack.us/img166/1696/kikaisa8.gif

King is done and it looks great ^_^. Having some problems with the return event trigger for the cursor but the demo might or may not be done by sunday or saturday.

Also we are looking for a artist to draw humans and possibly navis as well.
I do have a artist for humanīs but she got some other request and itīs good to have a extra pair of um..pencil and pen?

[NetSaver.exe]

I can't draw worth crap. What other spots are open?

[Kirby Pink]

Well, mini games deparment. Tough i donīt have any mini games right now. Any good making window skins?

[NetSaver.exe]

Window skins?

[Kirby Pink]

If you take a look at the game screenshot you see the conversation box? Thatīs a window skin used for the rpg maker.

http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/8858/001blue01zy6.png
They look sorta like this.

The big blue is the background, the uper right is for the border around and the small arrows are for skipping text while the big one is for battle picking your target.

[NetSaver.exe]

Which st6yle is this game going to be made in again?

[Kirby Pink]

Megaman Battle Network mixed with Megaman X a bit.

[NetSaver.exe]

Okay. I was just thinking it was in a different style than BN.

Well I kind of don't have RPG maker anyways.

[Dead Panda]

This is looking good! But the drawing of kikia with no helmet scares me...

[Kirby Pink]

lol dont worry, she will carry helmet at all times.=P

[Doogles]

Once I finish a normal navi, I'll sketch out ideas for allies, and viruses, too.

[[fish in space]]

Ooh! Can I submit Edge?

[Kirby Pink]

Suppose so, not excatly open for submittions but i can take a look.

[[fish in space]]

Okay, but I only have him in BN style http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n118/GordontheBold/Edge.png and Zane, his operator http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n118/GordontheBold/Zane-1.png

[Kirby Pink]

I could have him as a random encounter. Aight, itīs in. Tough a drawing could help with details for our artists so we donīt get anything wrong.

Aight i spoke with tek. And i here by declare that anyone wants there navi or characther in game can have them as random encounter.

If your lucky your navi and operator may be used in the story.

[[fish in space]]

I can make the big picture things if that's what you mean. How can you fight a navi in a random battle?

[Kirby Pink]

This is how it works
A variable or a dice is rolled each time you visit a certain area.
Letīs say you enter Elec Town 1 and the dice rolls.

Now if it hits 1 5 or 6 a event is triggerd . When it is your operator ,navi if your on the net, appears and ask you to battle.

[Dead Panda]

Makes sense. An thing i can help with?

If you guysgive me a description i guess i could make pixel art...(only 8-bit though, someone needs to shade it.

[Kirby Pink]

As for now i wanna get a demo up and running.
Ima have some mini games but as for now there aint much open slots for spriters.
tek is doing most of the work as for now and im coloring is drawings as well as king reaper.

So, ima say no for now.

[Dead Panda]

Whatever.... im just going around and helpin people, i don't really care if they say no Ž_Ž

[Kirby Pink]

Hm, maybe there is something you can do. Hang on a moment...
Can you possible sprite the pet in 96x96 icon?

Punk navi design for the game. Enjoy my poorly drawn eye candy, bitches!

[NetSaver.exe]

I might be able to sprite it if he can't make it. I will be back up.

[Dead Panda]

I'll try making the picture more sprite-ish. How big you want it?

[Kirby Pink]

Way ahead of ya.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v189/Werty2132/punk.jpg
Just black ^_^

Tough if you wanna do this instead of me go ahead.
Edit: Re read. Keep the size of the picture. Cause if itīs to large or to small it will effect ...well it might not look so good next to some other navi/human in game. Tough im to try this first. Anyhow , i fixed so that when the text goes letter by letter a sound effect is made.

[Kirby Pink]

Uptade from Rockman Halo. Another Pet design.
That makes it 2 diffrent petīs to pick from. Which shall it be?
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v189/Werty2132/PET.jpg

[NetSaver.exe]

Rockman Halo's. Now you want this to be like the one in the corner of the screen, right? I could get started on it.

[Kirby Pink]

Yeah, i plan to make it transperant and add it into the Conversation Box when the 4 options appear.

The move examine talk and bag.

[NetSaver.exe]

What are the colors for the PET?

[Kirby Pink]

Um...he didnīt say so you can do that.

[[fish in space]]

I think he's just curious.

[NetSaver.exe]

Who?
Yes I just want to know what the PET would look like with colors.

[Kirby Pink]

RockmanHalo didnīt say so that is up to you do make.Have fun.

[[fish in space]]

Finished Edge's picture thing http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/5176/edgexn4.th.png (http://img138.imageshack.us/my.php?image=edgexn4.png)

[Kirby Pink]

Itīs um...is um...
Not very detailed....but im sure tek can do something of this >>;

Didnīt you have a operator as well?

[[fish in space]]

Yeah, Zane. I showed him to you. Oh, and Edge isn't a very detailed navi.

[Kirby Pink]

Yes a sprite, but not a art of him.
But, i think tek can work from that as well. I think, if not iīll just ask you to provide one. For now itīs late ima sleep....Been working on the bugs of the demo all night X_x

[[fish in space]]

I haven't finished a pic for Zane, but I'll do it!

[Matt_ModelB]

Can You Please Tell Me How To Do A Game Please :)

[Doogles]

Look it up... go download Gamemaker or something. This isn't the thread to ask it in. *reported*

[Kirby Pink]

Sent you a pm X axl Zero

[Kirby Pink]

Ive been thinking a bit.
In each MMBN game there is some way of powering up Megaman.
In first game you power him up with getting Blue mystery data and add that to a stat.
In second and third we have styles and Navi Customizer
In 4th we got Soul Unsions same goes for 5th and 6th have Soul Cross

Now in Ryuusei we got Megaman transform like usual into 3 diffrent forms.

In Megaman X however we have parts. Now since this game is going to be a mix of MMX and MMBN i was thinking of bringing back those parts.

If you equip say:
Head part: Falcon Helmet
Armor part: Falcon Armor
Leg part: Falcon Leggings
Arm part: Falcon arms

Bonus: Hyper Move, Falcon Dive

You get the Falcon Armor in battle
But if you mix it
Head part: Falcon Helmet
Armor part: Crush Armor
Leg part: Beta Leggings
Arm part: Crush arms

You still have the parts on but it wonīt give you a bonus stat/move for having all parts on.
That said, there will still be other parts you can use to equip Kikai with.
Like
Arm part: Beta +2 ( Gives 15 +2 in damage = of from 25 str to 42 str which is around 325 damage)

Get the idea so far?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v189/Werty2132/wrighwron.png

xD

[Daisuke]

Your game sounds good so far. Hope you succeed at making this game. Good luck toward you and your team. Best of luck

[Kirby Pink]

I miss alot that should been done by my team.
One is for GuardianHX who should done the background but failed. Thatīs okay i spoke with him about it.
Another is tek , who seems to be sick or sumething. Canīt blame him on that.
Then there is King tough he is working on Kikaiīs anti alias.
Next there is NetSaver.exe who should done that PET.

Yeah i know you guys got social life and such but ya can at least give me some info on if your done or not.

Now for what ive done so far.

Ive fixed the lag issue i had by replacing 50 events to 7. Sure its just a icon you gotta move your cursor and check. But, i plan on having some secret stuff you can check as well.

Itīs mostly fixing up another thing and add text then the demoīs done. Tough itīs the small details and a major thing that needs to be done. Iīll try get the demo finished soon as possible.

[NetSaver.exe]

I made the PET, but I don't have it on this computer.

Edit: Got it.
http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/598/petag6.png (http://imageshack.us)

[Kirby Pink]

Aight time for the list!
People good guys:
Chaud like person : Aqua is on that
New Higsby: RockmanHalo did that but it needs to look like tekīs sort of.
Higsby helper: Needs fixing.
Random People: Girls, guys, kids etc. Get the idea?
Random Looking navis
Mom of Ami and dad.

People Bad guys
Well, we already got one punk navi but some variation of him maybe?

First mission sort of >_>

Story wise good guys:
Nina - Animal lover, takes care of a animal shop
Troy (Might change) - Dad of Nina, takes also care of animal shop

Story wise bad guys:
A boss navi and maybe a operator that looks like a animal in shape and the operator is sort of animal looking as well, maybe like a lion?

This is the first place you visit and that getīs attack by a navi that can control animals.


Now for backgrounds:
House of where ami lives:
Amiīs room, Amiīs kitchen, Amiīs house from the front outside

Outside Animal Shop
Inside Animal Shop

Network of Animal Shop 1 and 2


Now for you spriters i need:
A cursor looking sprite with 3 animation sprites. Must be 32x32
Various parts
Standard parts arms,armor,helmet,legs/boots
Mega parts

Items:
HP +10
MP +5

Hp recover items from 50 - 500
MP recover items 25 - 750

Also some random recover items looking such as recover from poison, paralayze the usual things.

New art

Missed anything?

[NetSaver.exe]

Well how does Ami look like first? She has to get something from her parents, right? Like hair, eye color, or something?

[Kirby Pink]

Ah right.
Sky finished her not to long ago >>
http://www.maj.com/gallery/prismman/Originals-Fanworks/ami-des.jpg
Forgot to post it here.

Good pet. Tough not excatly 96x96 ^_^;

[NetSaver.exe]

Looks like Ami would be a little hard to sprite.

On the PET the problem I had was the little icon on it.

[Kirby Pink]

Nah, first we art her so she looks like the rest, then i MS paint ink her and add colors, then King Reaper fixes up with the shades.

[NetSaver.exe]

That is a lot of work.

[Doogles]

Gotta get back to work on coloring the redoing the artwork...

Anyway, what's the status on the digital inking of my Punknavi?

[Kirby Pink]

Status? Unknown >_> I have it here
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v189/Werty2132/punk.jpg

It just need fixing up at edges and such. Tough if i remember correctly.
NetSaver.exe - I might be able to sprite it if he can't make it. I will be back up.
OmegaGuy - I'll try making the picture more sprite-ish. How big you want it?

Nothing about it since then.

[Doogles]

I really don't wanna do anti-aliasing for a while after I finish Kikai. Does anyone else wanna do the orange normal navi thing?

After I finsih Kikai, I'll start sketching up some random people. May even attempt to make Higsby in Tek's style.

[Kairos]

I'm here to help ma'am, just tell me what to do,and I'm on it!

[Doogles]

Hey, why don't you anti-alias the orange navi I just posted?

[Kairos]

Bleg. Hate Anti-aliasing sprites,but...I'm on it.

[Dead Panda]

OmegaGuy - I'll try making the picture more sprite-ish. How big you want it?



Im working on it...

[Doogles]

@Rags: I hate it, too... but it makes it look better and more professional looking, so it has to be done.

[NetSaver.exe]

How do you AA a sprite? I have seen one like it, but I don't know how to do it? Maybe someone could explain it to me in a PM.

[Kairos]

I will,and maybe then YOU could do it!

EDIT-DAMNIT! This sprite is hard to anti-alias! GAH!

[[fish in space]]

PM me about it too.

[NetSaver.exe]

I still haven't gotten my PM.

[Kairos]

Sorry,heh,blame the sprite,I've been trying it. And it kinda sliped my mind.

Plus,I'm making a guide,so it can be hosted on TSR,so,I'll have it in a hour.

[Doogles]

By an hour, he means you shouldn't expect it done within this century.

But anyway, back to work with me. *cracks whip on self*

[[fish in space]]

Uh... what's TSR?

[Kirby Pink]

http://www.spriters-resource.com/

[NetSaver.exe]

TSR= The Spriter's Rescource.

[AndromedaMan]

I can sprite, and I'm glad someone is making a game where the main character is a girl.
