Pokemon RPG

[Bwathke]

Hey Ill admit it I like pokemon to but I feel bad for people who put a lot of work into a project that always has the possibility of being forgotten very fast especially if its just a mod for a game. I'm not trying to ruin this or anything but I don't know if its worth all this work....

 

[HappyCockroach]

[Darkxs]

Lol! That would be awsome!

And now when I have quited playing WOW I have more time for WC3

Something you want me to do a Pokedex?

 

[Yixx]

Damn you really were gone for a long time! =P

I converted the whole battle system to (almost perfectly functioning) vJass
I am now working on making stats work and make it support EV's and IV's,, that is update for now =P

 

[HappyCockroach]

OMG!11!!! THERES SOME WEIRD PRESENCE HERE... I SENSE SMTHING!!!11ONE1!

lol jk
good to know youll be around more often now =D
dont get me wrong thats a joke on your recent activity =P
as everyone's messed up there x]

 

[Darkxs]

hehe I know m8 But just as you all know: Even though I where playing WOW back then, I still have kept an eye on the chat xP
So shall i make a 2D Pokedex?

 

[HappyCockroach]

Actually the Pokedex texture is plain-colored. So although HFR keeps picking on me, it won't get any better with a texture. Try this.

 

[Darkxs]

I already have I can improve the way it looks. But if it has to be a model thing then im lost xP
Ohh... By the way when open up the Pokedex, you have to lock the screen at it. (If you scroll down/up it gets :X up)

Edit: You should also make space for information about the pokemon, replace that with the "How to use" tooltip in the Pokedex. You can move that tooltip into the Pokedex spell description.
Ohh... And if you use the spell 2 times at the same time it LAGS alot!

By the way here is a Pic of how a Pokedex use to looks like:

 

[Yixx]

looks JUST like HC's one,, only less buttons ><

 

[Darkxs]

Hey Yixx do we need some icons?

 

[Yixx]

one that is in inventory,,
We dont want the normal 'bag' icon from warcraft,, we make an item that comes in empty spaces and we need a cool icon for it =D,, think of something

 

[Darkxs]

Just to make sure I understand an "This slot is empty icon"?
Well I got a WOW bag icon that i have recolored for my own campagin. Maby we can use that?

 

[HappyCockroach]

@Yixx: LOL I LOST THE BUS!!!!!!!! I was late and it was just gone. im going in another one in two hours later... the worst part is that i had no money to come back from the bus station to my hotel so i came on foot, through the most dangerous places of the city - weed-smelling dark narrow streets full of prostitutes, shemales, thieves and drug dealers, - and I wearing my nice nike shoes and quiksilver clothing and backpack. And yet i didn't know the wayback on foot, so I went asking to random people directions. Today I was born once again for getting home alright! lol!

Back to the project!

<- this thing is pretty ugly and crappy. We need some practical design for us. I like the current one better. Remember that each version has a different pokedex design, since we are doing an original version of pokemon, we should have our own pokedex design, which in my opinion resembles pretty well a pokedex.

The backpack looks cute!

 

[thedeathunterxx]

we need a more realistic one since this is going to be a realistic style of pokemon...

which is why a high res pokedex is a good idea.

 

[wenhanqin]

hi I GOPA, I come from China, the non-encrypted pokemon.uuu9.com reference you gave, and there are 24 models, I hope you can make better http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/maps-564/pokemon-wl-b4-unencrypted-131520

Do people often tell you to stop talking for fear of you getting hurt by someone who takes it the wrong way? We seriously do not need people telling us that something we're doing isn't worth it, so would you politely leaves us be?

Now that's out the way, sorry for my absence, I probably won't post here as much as I used to xD. But when I saw someone trying to tell us how pointless everything we're doing is, well, I just had to say something along the lines of 'close your mouth before it gets stuck open permanently'.

All systems are go!! I love this project xD

 

[Darkxs]

Darkxs's to do list:
Create a switch Pokemon icon.
Create a Bagback/Item store icon.
Create a run away icon.
Start working on the game-menu theme again.
Create the animated snorlax clock for the game-menu theme.
Write some Pokemon storyes.

 

[Yixx]

That looks kinda nice! =D,, It looks freehand? And it is for 'Switch Pokemon'?
But,,,,, Me and HC have been thinking,, Wouldnt Trackables (or clickable units) be easier to handle for the 'battle menu' ?
Just a thought,, and this icon IS gonna be used, for switch pokemon or not

 

[Wazzz]

Hm... we'll have icons and models as much as possible, hopefully ending up with a totally new look, so I'm guessing that for there to be a multi-player aspect, the map would have to be compressed with Vex's optimiser.

 

[Lord_of_sausage]

Wazzz.... Your signature.... is lame...

Whatever, i would like to keep the battle system. it's easy to understand how it would work, and why Trackables or clickable units? I think Abillities are much easier...

Snorlax clock? whatabout the Voltorb clock, that Ash's mom shows in the very first episode?

Oh, and whats Game menu theeme?

 

[Darkxs]

Yixx you want an voltorb or Snorlax clock?

An a game-menu theme (As I call it) is... Well... Ill show you:

[Lord_of_sausage]

You mean an UI?

Well, okay...

 

[Darkxs]

Well... Here is the icon for the item container:
(A Poke'Bag)
(Updated)

 

[CloudMax]

Well... Here is the icon for the item container:
(A Poke'Bag)

Maybe shade the edges on the bottom? it looks pixeled there.

 

[Darkxs]

Ohh yeah sec im gonna update last post when its done.

 

[Yixx]

You making Freehand icons now? Cuz it looks like one! That really is cool!
Only one thing,, The bag spot is empty, so i propose the BTN will look like a DISBTN and the DISBTN is the same, cuz it is not a real item after all, just an inventory filler
You could do that? Thanks =),,
But i gotta say, it looks really nice! If this is really freehand, then you have REALLY improved your iconing skillz!

 

[Darkxs]

Thanks alot but I am afraid that ill have to disappoint you Yixx I am still doing remakes anyway I am trying to do as much of the remakes freehand as possible.

Yixx said: The bag spot is empty, so i propose the BTN will look like a DISBTN and the DISBTN is the same, cuz it is not a real item after all, just an inventory filler

You mean that this icon should be the "This slot is empty" icon? Or am I misunderstanding you?

 

[Yixx]

Well, the icon itself is awesome, but the thing is. Now it looks like you can click it and something will happen. We need an icon that looks like it is not clickable, like some 'Passive' icon.

Yeah, actually it indicates that the slot is empty, only in a better way then warcraft does =D

 

[Darkxs]

Like:

 

[Yixx]

Yeah! Just like that! (Only make the DISBTN (the uncolored one) have color, only darker k?)

 

[Darkxs]

This is how it would looks:
(Until I have added an UI)

 

[Lord_of_sausage]

Hmm, maybe more gray and golden.

And background, can you make the background the same as the old "This slot is empty" icon? Ofcause, just my thoughts... Yixx's the leader -.-'

 

[Yixx]

LoS is kinda right,,background could use some work,,

 

[Whizza]

Darker with the pasive frame?
and just looking back, change hp regen to undead, with uba regen, then some Blight will make a good poke center lol
Liked the first "war3" pokedex, it fits in
still can wait for it to come out

 

[Darkxs]

Maby I should wait with the icon background to the UI is done. That way we can see what color would fit best.

Edit: Yixx you want a Snorlax or a Voltorb clock for the UI?
And did you ever get any answeres about the animated clock question of mine?
And if we don't have anyone to create skins for Pokemon trainers I could do that to. If you want it?

 

[Yixx]

Snorlax, and no one ever answered =S,,
And you can try to make that skin if you want
Just try to do as much freehand as possible,,

 

[Darkxs]

Okay here is what our UI could look like:

Info: I have choosed the blue and yellow color because it is used at the title of pokemon and then it dosen't get all Red/White.
(Only the bottom)

Tell me what you think.

 

[Yixx]

looks ok, but the background needs MUCH work, and much detail,

 

[Lord_of_sausage]

Hmm, not really happy with the pokemons on the top... I would like the pokemons somewhere else... Like in the background...

 

[Darkxs]

Yixx: Needs MUCH work.
Me: Well... It far from done yet xP

Yixx: and much detail.
Me: Ehh... Right now its just colors. SO what details you want?
Right now I am adding shadows under the yellow lines...

 

[HappyCockroach]

Okay here is what our UI could look like:

Info: I have choosed the blue and yellow color because it is used at the title of pokemon and then it dosen't get all Red/White.
(Only the bottom)

Tell me what you think.

There's a huuuge conflict between this and the warcraft style. You should make more complex textures with proper shading and etc...

 

[Darkxs]

Well that the problem I don't have a theme for the UI... Right now im just making it simpel with pokemons on it.
(But I am working on the shading)

 

[Yixx]

Ok, forget the blue en yellow, here is your theme:
An UI that goes from red (up) slowly into white (down), giving it some sorta Pokeball effect, only without the line in between and making it go slowly into each other,,
You know what i mean? That would be awesome! =D,,
And the lines (the ones that are on the upper part of the 'red' ) are black, all lines are black with sometimes a round ball in them (like the round thing on Pokeballs),,

You get what i am saying? =D

 

[Darkxs]

Yeah... Just sad you are telling me now... Hmm I think I can remake my work on the UI so far... Ill give it a shot.

Edit: LOL you have just inspired me! ;P

 

[Lord_of_sausage]

What about using some Game-boy like UI? With the goog old stipled line, with Pokéballs on the corner?

 

[Darkxs]

Have thought about that but... Isen't that boring?

 

[Yixx]

Well, the border thing might be cool, but i think the red-red/white-white conversion would be really cool! =D

 

[HFR]

Try to make a more warcrafitsh UI instead of all those colorful and happy pokemons.

Remember: This isn't a map for lil 4 years kids. We have to make this game as mature as possible (like deaths, rapes, violence, weed, etc).

And the Terraining Contest is running. I have exactly 17 days to finish my terrain. And I didn't even started! O NOZ!

 

[Darkxs]

Here is what ive made so far:
(It is a Pokeball that is opening up letting Pickachu and the 3 start Pokemons out (The top has not been made yet)

Edit: Yeah I saw that contest, just an idea, you could make "The little world" which is inside of a Pokeball xP

 

[HappyCockroach]

What tool do you use? MSPaint? Try using GIMP 2, it's free.
