Blizz-ABS vs. XAS

[legacyblade]

I mean those segment monsters, like we see in zelda, where you have to hit the very end, like what starrodkirby described.

[Blizzard]

He meant snake.

[Kagutsuchi]

If we are talking Zelda features, we would need the ability implant a custom sound when the target for an attack takes 0 damage. Like the critcial sound for blizz abs script thingie..

[Shadonking]

also what about double jump and hold attack for spin attack. i know these can prob be evented but there worth saying.

Spin attack could be made using skills on charge.Thought you don't get to see yourself spin around :\ just everyone around you taking damage. I think BABS needs a function where you have to hold down the button to charge it thought, and if you charge it completely, it does normal damage. But if you only charge it half way it only does 50% damage =D

[Blizzard]

Charges like that aren't complicated. I won't include them, though, as they mess up the way skills work. A plugin would be a good solution here.

@Shadonking: Double jump simply doesn't work well with RMXP's normal jumping style. I'd also suggest a plugin here or a completely separated system.

you would with a custom animation for the skill.

Owned.

I feel assraped for not being able with coming up with that by myself :S

Is this really a competition? Blizz-ABS completely pwns! It has to be the very best ABS I've ever seen, and I've tried QUITE a few, including XAS. Sure, XAS is fine, but it's nowhere near as awesome as Blizz-ABS. They have basically the same features, AND Blizz-ABS is so customizable, a hill-billy could do it! MY HAMSTER could do it! MY FORK COULD DO IT! (Ok, maybe not my fork. But, it has suprised me in the past XP)

XAS- 9.9/10
Blizz-ABS- 44/10
Neo-ABS- rejected >:3

Yayay!

And yes, I know next to nothing about scripting, and even I could customize it to suit me. If you can customize every aspect of the game, and has as many features as the so-proclaimed "best ABS ever", doesn't that make it better- or at least pretty damn awesome?

[Starrodkirby86]

Hahaha, such high praise. I'm sure Blizzard would be happy. Certainly fits the goal of the ABS. Don't diss on the hill folk though. :U

I don't believe there was that much competition in the first place. This topic just spawned from a certain person who likes ticking people off and being an XAS fan (maybe ex-XAS fan, I don't know).

[Jackolas]

XAS- 9.9/10
Blizz-ABS- 44/10
Neo-ABS- rejected >:3

your wrong there... it should be

XAS- 9.9/10
Blizz-ABS- 42/10
Neo-ABS- rejected

[Blizzard]

<3 for the 42 reference.

[C.C. rOyAl]

while everyone is talkin about this isnt it possible to make it to where u dont have to wait like half a second or 40 frames or something like that to be able to attack again in Blizz-ABS?

[Aqua]

Yes, change the penalty time to something lower.

BTW, the official Blizz-ABS topic would have been better for that question.

[RoseSkye]

I played the new XAS demo..

I have to tell you, if XAS ever comes up with a party system (It doesn't even have to have A.I.) it will completely rape the B-ABS. Not because it has more features, because it has less bugs.

I'm sure I can do most of the things it does with eventing.. even multi hit somewhat.. however, what I can't do is remove event touch bugs, and things of that nature.

[Blizzard]

Blizz-ABS isn't as buggy as I simply don't have time to work on it.

[Nightowl Atticus]

I tried XAS and I think it wasn't good as Blizz ABS.

It was pretty laggy, and of course, I didn't like the lag. But there's other thing too.
Too much shit on the screen. Why the HUD shows also the armor, accessory, helmet and shield?
I wouldn't be even interested of seeing what armor I am wearing while I'm battle.

Also, the Combo text was pretty annyoing, I just saw 'COMBO COMBO COMBO ZOMGGG HOLY SHIT OVERDRIVE' text
all over in the screen whenever I hit!
The script was damn annyoing and complex, you have to make a script of EVERY item in the database!?
After working with database like hell, would be damn annyoing to make a script of every weapon in database.
When I use Blizz ABS, what I have to do when I want to make a for example, boomerang? I just edit the Part 1 script
bit and that's it. Or even easier, I use Blizz ABS config!

Those are the things I hated the most.
I would rather use Mr. Mo's ABS than XAS, which is a damn complex pile of shit.

I know this is old, but I'm agreeing. I can't script yet; however, XAS fails so bad I deleted it twice even after it was in the recycle bin! And don't ask me how this makes sense. Anyway. It's not customizable. It doesn't have a program that's called XAS CONFIG. It's full of crap. The bird boss was awesome but was hard until I learned how the controls and how to defend. The shitas was in another language. NO matter what version I tried, I kept getting spanish o_O fucking wierd. The tutorial probably wouldn't have made any sense anyway.

The tutorial is on their website. ~.~
