[What is required from you]

What is required from you

I need you to test the game i give you and report any bugs you find to me. I will tell you to choose certain dialog options and i will tell you what should happen, if what i said does not happen there is a bug and you can report that . If what i say happens then we can move on to the next part

I need you to be online atleast twice a week. Once i will contact you to tell you what to do and the second time you can report any bugs to me
If you are online more often than that then we can get more work done ( like if you are online 4 times a week then we will get twice as much work done ). If you are unable to come online then please say so before hand and give a reason why

My game will be divided into chapters. Each time i complete a chapter testing will begin. After which i will proceed to make the next chapter. The length of the development ( i will handle this myself ) and testing periods will depend on the length of the chapter



What i will be doing

Making the game and debugging it



Number of people required

For now no limits ( This may change at any time )



Rewards

Credit
You will get to play it before anyone else
The game is NONcommercial so no cash



Current progress

Demo 1 has been developed, tested, debugged, released
Demo 2 has been developed, NOT yet tested

Required features:
1) Limits for the number of items, weapons and armors in inventory EACH SEPARATELY. ie i can configure it like this..... 5 items, 10 weapons, 20 armors etc
2) The configuration needs to be done using a call script command so that it can be changed any time

Consider game_guy's party item limit script but instead of a universal limit for items/weapons/armor there can be a separate limit for each one

This game is intended for mature gamers. By mature i mean those who can understand the greatness of games like The Witcher, The BG series, PS:T, KOTOR etc.

PS: Please read the manual first

STORYLINE

Spoiler: ShowHide

29 years ago research of magic yielded weapons that could be enchanted and with these weapons all manner of beasts from the lowly kobolds to the mighty dragons could be slain. Since then magical research has become an integral part of every country

Around 5 years ago the kingdom of Serilia attacked the nearby kingdom of Dalatrene. Surprise attack along with use of magical weapons of mass destruction led to total decimation of Dalatrene

Within months the Serilian army conquered a number of smaller kingdoms. It was when Serilia attacked the kingdom of Arcetum, which was home to the greatest magi, that the various kingdoms rallied against it to prevent it from getting stronger still

The alliance declared war on Serilia and in order to ensure total victory they recruited all manner of peasants and criminals to use as shock troops. One such person was you. In one particular battle you were severely injured and dying but to your surprise when you next opened your eyes you found an old man sitting next to you, smiling as he saw you stir. You were in a village near the battlefield and the old man was its Elder

That was 5 years ago and now after all these years the old man needs a favor done and has sent out a call for mercenaries. You decided to take it up for free and thus pay your debt to the Elder. On the way to meet the Elder you have a disturbing nightmare. It's probably the work of a sorcerer or necromancer, you've made a lot of enemies in your years as a mercenary. All part of a day's work........

CLASSES,SKILLS, AND ADVANCEMENT

Spoiler: ShowHide

This the one thing i forgot to include in the manual. Most party members will start out with the same class (vagabond ). This class is like a jack of all trades master of none. It can use skills from all classes however the most potent skills of each class are denied to it. One can change classes by doing certain "deeds" ( this would be a spoiler and so i wont reveal it ). When one changes classes they will retain all of the abilities they have already learned. This will allow you to make all sorts of hybrids. Also you not only control the class change for the pc but ALL your party members

As for skills, skills are NOT learned by level up, in fact the concept of level up has been scrapped. Skills can be learned in many ways. Get on the good side of an expert and you can convince him to teach you, find a long forgotten tome of spells are read from it ( if you have the appropriate language learned ) etc

CREDITS

Spoiler: ShowHide

I have asked a number of you permission to use your scripts/other resources but you may notice your name is not here this is because in the current demo not all of it has been used. As and when they are used i will give credit
Another thing: I have tried to trace the creator of all the resources i used however as you all know with the various sites out there this is nearly impossible and so if i have used some of your resources and have not given proper credit please pm me. I apologize in advance
Also if i have accidentally missed listing someone whose permission i asked, i apologize

no idea where to post this

This is the database part
I found a site with some icons
http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&u=http://whitecafe.sakura.ne.jp/material.html&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dstrawberryquartz%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DG

This is the request part
Any idea whom to credit or whether we can use it in commercial projects??

RMXP
--------------------------------------------------
How do i get <subject of post> to work in a game
It must work in messages. ( all other areas like menu etc are optional )
Does the user have to install it??
Is there any message script that can do this??
--------------------------------------------------
the font is " Abaddon "

well blizzard said that the script provides only the control not the quipping system so im looking for 1
If you know any or can make any the please post a working link as i have seen some such scripts whose links are dead

Im going to write types of games. You can tell me which all you like/hate/like somewhat/hate somewhat/will play to kill time but not if i have other games etc etc

THIS IS NOT a comparison of particular games but the general vibe you get from the sub genre of RPG's.

*************************************************************
GIVE REASONS

If the above statement is ignored I will do all in my power to delevel you

1) Action RPG type 1--- ex diablo,titan quest
2) Action RPG type 2---ex Fable , Fable:TLC, Fable 2, the witcher
3) Action RPG type 3----ex Elder Scrolls
4) "True RPG" type 1---ex Laxius power, Aveyond
5) "True RPG" type 2----ex Final Fantasy, Golden Sun
6) "True RPG" type 3----ex nwn, nwn2, Planescape torment, BG 1, BG2 ******NOTE: i am not going to call this type D&D rpg or Pen and paper rpg because not all rpg's that have such mechanics are based on pen and paper*********

1) Hate it ----- all you do i kill kill kill with as if the hero/heroine can think for himself

2) Love it----- The games add an nice blend of freedom( good/evil ) and restrictions( ex only male )

3) Somewhat like it----- I like this type only because it is modable and mods are great (usually )

4)YUCK------ Though the characters can actually think everything else sucks

5)Love it----- Too many to list out

6)Love it------ This is the most tricky. Since you need a great balance to pull it off. Give too much freedom and you ruin it too less and it falls into another catagory and thus i will judge based on how many good/bad games are out there VERDICT: Love em

First of all i am not sure where to post this

I have collected a number of scripts from these forums and am trying to get permission from their creators to use them in a commercial project. I have been able to get permission from more active people (blizzard and game_guy) however certain members (Falcon, Winkio, Shdwlink1993) have not responded.

While Shdwlink has protected his work with CC, winkio and Falcon have not done so. I have thought about using their works by simply crediting them but not asking permission. I want to know is this morally, ethically and legally acceptable ???

Advice please

Requirements : 1)Skill that when used on 1 or more enemies can damage their SP/HP and transfer a configurable
                     percentage of that to the caster
                     2) I can configure it so that it can do direct damage or damage over time.

If 2) is not possible its ok

Could someone please seperate out the wings from all 4 RTP angels, devil 3, monster 13

I am going to make a commercial game with Blizz ABS ( i have taken permission ) but i require a small modification of the script and i am no scripter

REQUIRED FEATURES :1) view and hearing range should be affected by variables like when variable 'x' has a
                                 value 'y' view range =...... and hearing range=...... ( different view range values for
                                  different enemies )
                                   Ex : suppose enemy 1 and enemy 2 have ranges of 2,10 and 5,20 respectively (view,
                                   hearing) then if a variable 'x' gets its value changed from 'z' to 'y' the both their view
                                   ranges should be changed by a value 'a' and hearing by a value 'b'                          

Credits will be given
Thank you in advance
