Gaming and heavy art stuff - Photoshop, Maya, etc.

Think a SSD is necessary or something?

I'm doing some art stuff where it's very repetitive in that I...

Click one button at Point(X0, Y0),
Click a text field at Point(X1, Y1),
Enter Variable A,
Click a text field at Point(X2, Y2),
Enter Variable B,
Variable B++;
Repeat N times.

Using a script to do this for me would be VERY helpful, but I don't know how to do it.
Anyone want to help?   I'll love you long timez if you do.
It should hopefully be able to work despite what desktop applications/windows are active and whatnot, in case I need this thing across different applications.


I would attempt to google some stuff to figure it out... But I have to do this art thingie right now xD

Hai~
My mind is pretty frazzled right now, and I'm having trouble thinking about this...

Could someone tell me and explain the following if I am wrong?

Given 5d6, what is the probability that you roll any kind of triple, quadruple, or quintuple?
The order in which they are rolled does not matter, as long as a triple, quadruple, or quintuple can be formed.
So... 1-1-1-2-3 is the same as 2-3-1-1-1.

What I got was 630 out of 7776 possibilities or 8.102%.  Is this correct?

Hi guys...

I probably won't be on anymore forever...


















Nah, I just started college yesterday, and I'm not sure how much I can be on CP.
I'll be sure to visit everyday, and I think I will be able to still no-life lurk on here...
But just this week is overpacked with first-year experience jazz...

So I'll precipitate soon.

I'm going to Canada from tomorrow to next Thursday.
So uh...
See ya

I was gonna wait for another tutorial, but Blizzard poked me to move it to Tutorial Database.

Goodbye Chaos-Project!!!

I am actually going on vacation and will be back July 20th or so...

A fence 8 ft tall runs parallel to a tall building at a distance of 4 ft from the building. 
What is the length of the shortest ladder that will reach from the ground over the fence to the wall of the building?

I know it involves similar triangles... BUT I DON'T GET IT ;____;

Author's Notes

This was much easier than I thought

Rawr!

Anyone be willing to make a script that allows for states to reflect a certain % of physical attacks (including physical skills) back at the attacker?

So if Giant Blob attacks Arshes who has state with reflection of 1%...
Giant Blob deals 10,000 damage to Arshes.
Arshes's state reflects 100 damage back to the Giant Blob.

(Then Arshes dies because I said so.)

Compatible with DBS pu-lease =X

Thaaaaaaaaaaank youuuuuuuuuuuu!


(Lolz I hate making request topics... I sound so weird D:)

This topic left Chat and has been moved to Welcome!.

http://forum.chaos-project.com/index.php?topic=3973.0

Hi hi!

I'm requesting 4 sprites that I'll use for Reno's boss battle competition.

However... I will not post the reference pictures or the description of the sprites on here; I wish to keep them a secret.

If anyone wishes to do these 4 sprites, or even 3 or 2 or 1... then... post here or PM me, and I'll send the info via PM.

All help is appreciated and will be rewarded with credit in the game and a choice of the following:

• 1 Hug


• +1 Aqua Point


• 1 Quick Sketch of a (Human) Character


• Something... special

Lol... um... hope someone helps despite the lame topic... ^_^"

[Percentage Health States]

Percentage Health States
Authors: Aqua
Version: 1.5
Type: Battle States Add-on
Key Term: Battle Add-on

Introduction

This script makes it so that battlers will gain states when they are below a certain percentage of health.  The states would be automatically lost when the battler's health is above the configured percentage.
Note:  this affects all actors and enemies.

For example, you could have a state for when HP is critical and battlers gain more attack as a last effort to win.

Features

• Seperate percentages for each state
  
• Automatically gain/lose the configured states
  
• Very easy configuration
  
• Actor/Enemy specific states possible
  

Screenshots

Not really needed.
Imagine that Arshes gains Sharp when his HP falls below 20%

Demo

Don't think it'd be really necessary, but post if you do want one.

Author's Notes

Hope you enjoy this!

I might add Scene_Map checker later.

Would anyone be willing to script a HUD for me?
The trickiest part /should/ be the drawing the bars in proportion since it's curvy... lol

Here is what I want the HUD to look like:

Spoiler: ShowHide

Wonder where I got the inspiration for the HUD... 

I want the Red bar to be HP and the Blue one to be SP.
It's a One Hero game, so only $game_actors[1] info is needed.

Now the individual images.

Face: ShowHide

HP Parts: ShowHide

SP Parts: ShowHide

Thanks!

Anyone mind making an RTP sprite for me?

Spoiler: ShowHide

I wonder where I've seen her before... o.o

If made in PS, could you also supply the PSD?

Thanks in advance! ^_^

Edit:
Here's the picture of the back

Spoiler: ShowHide

I'm having trouble with my MiniHud... Hopefully, someone can help. 

The Script So Far: ShowHide

class HudGunMini < Sprite 
   
  def initialize(viewport = nil) 
    super 
    self.x, self.y, self.z, self.opacity = 50, 120, 5000, 255 
    self.bitmap = Bitmap.new(150, 43)  
    refresh 
  end 
   
  def refresh 
    self.bitmap.fill_rect(1, 20, 120, 28, Color.new(0, 0, 0, 0)) 
    @gunministring = $gunletterarray
    
    string = []
    
    if @gunministring != nil
    for i in 0..@gunministring.size    
      case @gunministring[i]
      when 1
        string.push('A')
      when 2
        string.push('B')
      when 3
        string.push('C')
      end
      return string 
    end
    
    end


    self.bitmap.draw_text(1, 20, 120, 28, string.to_s, 1) 
  end 
   
  def update 
    refresh if @gunministring != $gunletterarray
  end 
   
end 

class Scene_Map 
  
  alias upd_gunmini update 
  def update
    $gunminihud.update if $gunminihud != nil
    upd_gunmini
  end
  
end

What I want this HUD to do is to show a certain key combination on the map.

The Key combination is stored within $gunletterarray as numbers like [1, 2, 3] would be A, B, C.
I am able to show the key combination in the form of numbers using

self.bitmap.draw_text(1, 20, 120, 28, $gunletterarray.to_s, 1) 

The problem I'm having is converting the array such that 1 => A, 2 => B, etc.

    if @gunministring != nil
    for i in 0..@gunministring.size    
      case @gunministring[i]
      when 1
        string.push('A')
      when 2
        string.push('B')
      when 3
        string.push('C')
      end
      return string 
    end
    
    end

From what I can tell... this should take the value of $gunletterarray at index i and throw it into the case.
So, if i is 1, then it should push 'A' into the string then repeat with the next index.

But when I display it using

self.bitmap.draw_text(1, 20, 120, 28, string.to_s, 1) 

Nothing shows up at all... =/
No error message... just... emptiness...

Any suggestions?

#===============================================================================
# Fill out all the info in the below module with the settings that you want.
# Please make sure that 
#   FIELD_ELEMENTS, 
#   FIELD_EVENT_ID, 
#   FIELD_SWITCHES, and 
#   FIELD_ELE_CHARGE
# are in same corresponding order to avoid possible bugs.
#
# In order for a skill to make a field, it needs to have the elements of
# one of the FIELD_ELEMENTS and has to have the element set up in FIELD.
# NOTE:
#   If a skill that creates a field has multiple FIELD_ELEMENTS for elements,
#   then it will create only the elemental field of the last element set up in 
#   FIELD_ELEMENTS that the skill has.
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# IMPORTANT!!!!!  YOU MUST DO THIS FOR THIS PLUG-IN TO WORK
# On the map ID that you set up for FIELD_MAP_ID, make one event for each
# elemental field that you have, making sure that the event IDs match 
# FIELD_EVENT_ID.
#
# For best results it is recommended that you have this event coding for each
# event.
#
#   Conditions:     Switch ID (corresponding one in FIELD_SWITCHES) to be on
#   Event Graphic:  An elemental field
#   Trigger:        Parallel Process
#   Options:        Through   (others depending on how you want it)
#   Event Commands: (Remember to change the Variables to appropriate numbers)
#
#       Control Variables: [0000: Hero Map X] = Player's Map X
#       Control Variables: [0000: Hero Map Y] = Player's Map Y
#       Script: @foatime = $game_variables[
#               AquaFoA::FIELD_TIME_ID] / 
#               Graphics.frame_rate
#       Conditional Branch: @foatime == AquaFoA::FIELD_TIME
#          Control Switches: [Corresponding one in FIELD_SWITCHES: ] = Off
#
#       Else
#          Control Variables [0000: FIELD_TIME_ID] += 1
#          (Add optional, misc. coding here ie. heal party)

Author's Notes

This is a Chaos-Project.com exclusive script.
You are not allowed to repost this script anywhere else.

Please tell me of possible bugs and glitches and I will try to fix them ASAP.
Also tell me of other features that you might like added.

If you have RMXP on a Vista machine and you run it, you'd normally get an error and it'll crash.

Spoiler: ShowHide

Screenshot provided by Starrodkirby86

1.  To get RMXP to work on your Vista, first browse to the folder where you have installed it.  The default folder is C:\Program  Files\Enterbrain\RPGXP

2.  Right click the RPGXP icon and click properties.  Go over to the compatibility tab, check the box for "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and make sure it says Windows XP (Service Pack 2).  Hit OK.

Spoiler: ShowHide

3.  Now, right click on the RPGXP icon again and click, "Run as administrator".

Spoiler: ShowHide

4.  A pop-up should appear in which it says that RPGXP.exe needs your permission to run.  Allow it to run and then you should be able to activate the program.  After activating it, you no longer need to run it as administrator.

Congratz!  Now you can run RMXP on your Vista! 
Now get workings on those amazin' games!!!

Happy Birthday Blizzard!!!

Woohoo on becoming 22!!!

I hope you enjoy your birthday after all the hard work you do for us!

Blizzard set up an IRC chat for us so everyone will be able to have contact with each other instantaneously.  

Enjoy!

*waits for Blizz to kill me for stealing this posted news*

EDIT:

For those amongst you that connect using an IRC client, the server is irc.p2p-network.net.

• When you connect, type /join #chaosproject (not necessary if connecting over the website).
  
• You can register your name with /ns register PASSWORD EMAIL. The EMAIL is used in case you forget your pass.
  
• When you log in, use /ns identify PASSWORD so that the system knows it really is you who is using that name. This is only necessary if you have registered that name. You will be prompted to do so by NickServ.
  
• Finally you can kick someone from chat in order to regain your nick by using /ns ghost NICK PASSWORD.
  
• You should change and validate your name before you join #chaosproject, but it is not necessary.

RULES OF THE IRC CHAT!

Make sure you have a complete understanding of the rules before going in there.

Author's Notes

Hope you like it!

Did you try running CP to play an awesome game but only run into this error?

Script '-> Font installer utils' line 142: Errno::EACCES occurred.

Permission denied - C:\Windows\Fonts\comic.ttf

Well... chances are, you're using Vista.

To fix this, follow these instructions:  (Lol I probably sound cheesy  )

1.  Open the folder where the Game is located.
2.  Right-click on Chaos.exe.
3.  Click on 'Run as administrator.'
4.  If it says, 'An unidentified program wants access to your computer,' click 'Allow.'
5.  And then it should work.  Hurray :3

Enjoy playing CP and... hopefully this tutorial didn't sound as lame as I think it is... >.>"

Hey!  I'm gonna post some of my art here...

The Dawn of Light

Prologue

Prologue: ShowHide

They say that somewhere far away, there is a Sol Crystal that floats in the heavens, whose essence is strong enough to illuminate the entire world.  I think it's all a hoax.  We have five Crystals in our town that barely light past a block; how am I supposed to believe that there could be one that would light up all of Dargrimm?  The people tell me to hope, but I lost hope for everything ever since my father abandoned me here when I was only three.  I still remember that dreadful day. 

My father and I had been staying at a local farmer's house at a small town on our way towards the city.  One day the Sol Crystals went out because of gravitational interferences and my father told me to stay in the house while he went to check on the Crystals.  When they were back on, my father was nowhere to be found, hadn't left the slightest trace.  Without my choice in the matter, the farmer and his wife took me into their home and raised me.  It's been twelve years since that happened, but I still remember every detail, every tear, every stab of pain in my heart...

Characters

Characters: ShowHide

Armais
Class:  Archer
Age:  15
Gender:  Male
Special:  Elemental Arrows
Background: 
Armais is a teen who lost all hope for the world when his father left him.  Ednire was all that he had since his mother died shortly after giving birth to him and one day, he was just gone.  De'mik has raised him like his own son but Armais never considered the farmer who raised him to be his father.  Ever since that day, he hated it when gravity affected the Solar Crystals because of the darkness that would come and the mysteries unveiled after they come back on. 


Seles
Class:  Swordsgirl
Age:  16
Gender:  Female
Special:  Styles of the Eastern Zodiac that cause Status Effects
Background: 
Not much is known about this teenage girl.  She says that she is trying to become better than her sister with swords and joins Armais, knowing that his adventure will encourage her to become stronger.


Midori
Class:  Mage
Age:  14
Gender:  Female
Special:  I dunno :O
Background: 
   Midori is one of those people who always see the bright side of things and could never possibly be mad at anyone.  Energetic, chirpy, and clumsy with magic, Midori is just someone whom everyone loves.  Will her smiles be the light that Armais needs or will it just lead down the road to a dark past...




Aqua
Class:  ?
Age: ?
Gender:  Female
Special:  ?
   Who is this mysterious character who's happiness rivals Midori's?
