Current Progress

[Pyritie]

I'll just be putting here the sort of progress that's going on.

As of this post, the first map is virtually finished. All that's left is for me to test it once more to see if I fixed this one bug with the sound not looping correctly, Donut3.5 to finish animating Lirch and Pyritie's models, Werewulf to finish the skins (she only has to finish their eyes), and for the voice actor for Lirch to do his voice recording. (unfortunately he is unavailable to do it until after November...)

The second map I'd say is 90% done. I just need to add two spells to Pyritie, make and add a spell for Lirch, finish this one cinematic (where you cannot talk to Coalch until you've completed the food quest), make the skins for Scorch and Pirch, have Donut3.5 finish their animations, and do a whole ton of voice acting (I've probably got those people covered as we're having a british family (whom we're good friends with) come over for thanksgiving).

Third map still has a lot to do. I'm going to get rid of the keys and add riddles to the gates, make an easier version of the big sliding puzzle, do a whole bunch of cinematics, more voice acting, get EF to finish his gravity system so I can use it for a puzzle, and a whole bunch of other small things.

I also still need to do all of the credits.

Congrats, Pyritie!!!

 

[Mechmap]

Well, it sounds nice.

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

Hi, so will the third map be completed in the latest version?

 

[Pyritie]

No. Third map still has much to be done.

That and I still have to finish the loading screens 8D

Hi

So how much longer till u get the map ready for the public to play because I am so ready for it to come out and be ready. I think that this will be the best campagain ever no lie B/C when i play the demo it was cool all ready.

 

[Pyritie]

Oh, the first and second maps would probably be out by around december. Lirch's voice actor is busy for the whole of november and Donut3.5 needs to animate the models.

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

Well, as a tester i believe you really CAN improve your second map. There is a full list of bugs that map has. I noticed most of them while playing, however, i don't have the time to write them.

Map one is great in fact. But map 2 ... well, there is a lot to do yet. I may post here a list of bugs/suggestions day 22-25 (when i have time to re-test the map again and to write a decent comment here).

About the aura, well, i didn't have enough time until now ... but i will try to show you some work the next Saturday or Sunday (days 24, 25).

 

[Pyritie]

Well bugs usually can be fixed pretty quickly. The main thing that really needs to get done in the second map is just to complete this one cinematic and then add some spells to Lirch (Excluding voice acting and the models).

 

[Pyritie]

Oh noes! Bad news!

Well the guy who does the voice acting for Lirch has been very busy and seeing as this is his last year at school before he goes off to university I won't be able to use him for any more voice acting.

I'm currently trying to get this one person in my grade who was recently in a school play to do some voice acting instead. Hopefully he'll remember to visit this place.

Oh, and a bit of good news: Ralle got me a redirect! So now you just have to type http://pyritiesadventure.hiveworkshop.com to get to the main forum.

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

MMmmm about the voice acting there are hundreds of forums to fix that ... problem is that they would force you to re tape all voices ...
Still you can use this as an advantage, if the new Lirch's voice gets better than the old one, it will be good for you project.

How is the third map going ?? when will the new version be released to testers ?

 

[Pyritie]

The next version will mainly be finalizing the first and second maps. That and some more voice acting will be added by then. (Hopefully)

Oh, and I've decided to double the speed of that chase scene in the first map. Now it's more silly (which was intended), less tedious, and is just generally better.

 

[Pyritie]

Cinematics are done for the second map! Now onto me redoing all of the voice acting...

 

[Mechmap]

good that the cinematics are done.

 

[Pyritie]

Yup. Oh, and Werewulf's been busy making some uber dragon icons. Not just for me, mind you.

 

[Mechmap]

Oh, i saw those and i thought they were awesome, but i didn't know you would use them for your campaign. Those icons will certainly* improve your project*.

 

[Pyritie]

Yeah and now she went and updated most of them so now I have to go and reimport them all. D'oh.

---

Voice acting for Pyritie in the first map is done.

 

[Pyritie]

Exported from dragon icon thread

Screen suggestion...? No I don't remember talking to her about anything like that.

 

[Pyritie]

- Voice acting for the train ticket seller, the fruit seller, and a red magic dragon (taken from WILL's suggestion) is done.

- Lots of Werewulf's dragon icons imported.

- Lord_T made some better models for the Wolf Bones and Wolf Teeth you find a lot in JtD.

- Drops in the mine are now randomized. (I still should make one preplaced rock drop a gem so in the rare scenario of a player getting horrible luck they'd still manage to complete the quest)

- New spell for Pyritie - Plasma Storm.

- Earth-Fury has started making a 2D gravity system for the puzzles on the third mountain in DoA.

- Donut3.5 has started working on animations.

- Flame_Phoenix is working on Firch's Mind Mastery (aura)

- Extra cinematic added. (JtD)

Now it's spell-making and implementing time!

 

[Pyritie]

- Wood bug fixed! (Hopefully)

- New spell for Lirch - Headbutt

- New spell for Scorch - Flash Fire (taken from Mechmap's suggestion) (Replaces Breath of Fire)

- Game cache now carries over learnt spells.

- Pancakes filter changed and keyboard movement filter added.

 

[Pyritie]

New user group added! Go here to add yourself to the user group. Once you're added, you can access the new private forum, which only beta testers (as well as global mods, etc) can view and post in.

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Maybe irrelevant question but...how much would be the size of this?

 

[DesKaladA]

er um that my deparment(compression)
i have no clew

 

[Mechmap]

So... Progress is standing still for the moment?

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

Yes,I think.Py is in Egypt.

 

[DesKaladA]

correct py is in egypt and all thats beging worked on is spells and stuff (that dosen't need the campain to work)

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

About spells, I am waiting for PurplePoot to solve his optimizations bug. If he doesn't do it until Py returns, the I will make it myself.
Also, I already started a mini-map to post in the spell's section. That map will feature the spell, and it will be lie free publicity. =)

 

[Mechmap]

Yeah, I knew he was in Egypt but since no one seems to post while he's gone I thought I just asked.

 

[Pyritie]

Maybe irrelevant question but...how much would be the size of this?

Well at the moment it's over 50MB.

 

[Mechmap]

Yay. he's back!

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

Welcome back m8 =).

 

[Pyritie]

Version 1.3 released.

 

[Flame_Phoenix]

MMM, I am downloading the version now =).
Btw, the testers version better then this one rit ?

 

[Pyritie]

The current tester's version has the second and third maps. This one just has the first map and a credits map.

 

[Jack Moonfang]

Zomg! O:

... This Campaign rocks!

.... I wonder when will it be finished. :B

Not rushing anyone! Just curious. :b

 

[Pyritie]

Each map will be added as it is finished.

Although I doubt the whole thing will be finished by the time SC2 comes out. But who knows? We could always complete it in there.

 

[chanwk3]

you could try vocaloid if you run outta voice actors

 

[Pyritie]

Naah, I think I'm fine for voice actors.

 

[Pyritie]

Second map's almost done. Just need to finish the voice acting and add Preskooldude's spell (when he's done with it)

 

[Jack Moonfang]

Does that mean....!

... MY VOICE IS INCLUDED? XD

O:!

.. I mean next update. x3

 

[Pyritie]

Yes, it is included.

I think.

 

[Jack Moonfang]

[Meh..]

It's been quite some time..

.... Or maybe I'm just impatient..

... Buuut.. No development so far? ;b

... Sorry if I offended the hardworking staff. o_o;

 

[UchihaSasuke.gr]

[Instant Ramen]

It's been quite some time..

... Sorry if I offended the hardworking staff. o_o;

This map has actually made quite some progress. Please keep in mind that this project is still in its early stages.

 

[Jack Moonfang]

Oh, really?

... My bad. LoL.

... Once again, I apologize for any offense I have caused among the staff.

 

[Pyritie]
