Pokemon RPG

[Yixx]

AH OF COURSE!!! TRUESHOT AURA ONLY EFFECTS UNITS WITH RANGED ATTACK!!! Thank god you came to that conclusion, I hadn't even begun to think of that . Hell, even if you set it to work for all types of attacks like Command Aura (Command Aura and Trueshot Aura are actually the same ability with different settings), it wouldn't work on a unit without an attack. Nice work there, mate!

Sorry I hadn't thought of that, feel as though I let you down a bit. So Trueshot Aura and Attribute Bonus are the only abilities you tried using? That's cool, cause I think Endurance Aura should work nicely .

So an aura that involves movement should work? (Not attack speed cause it has no attack, and not attack damage cause it has no attack)
Currently im at school ;D,, so ill test it this afternoon

 

[Darkxs]

Yixx since you soon are ready to give out a DEMO, do I have some good news for you. The loading screen is nearly done. But what do you want it to say?
Example: Yixx proudly presents together with (The names of your team M8's) Pokemon RPG. ?

 

[Yixx]

Just say: Pokémon RPG, i assume you can change that text easily? Cause there might still get changes in the Team

 

[Darkxs]

Well the screen is simple so it is easy for you to change. The size of it is 512x512 hope that is good enoth. If you like somethings to be changed let me know (Also if you don't like it)

Edit: It sould be fixed now. If you can't convert it let me know. Check it ingame and tell me if the size has to be changed. Ready for DL Yixx

By the way if you need som diffrent colors Pokeball icons i can make that too.

 

[Yixx]

Well, if you could make a normal, great, ultra and master ball Icon =D,, that would be great! Thanks! ^^
(You know what they look like?)

@HFR: Where are you!! =O

 

[Darkxs]

Well a masterball...

Ohh... And how does the loading screen looks?

 

[Yixx]

Cant see loadingscreen xD
what should i change the Name to? (i tried:Fullscreen.blp)
For the Icon: You made that yourself? =P
Well, you have to at LEAST make the original Icon Border around it =P
(And make an DISBTN one)

 

[Darkxs]

hehe you need to covert it first. If you cannot convert the loadning screen then ill do it for you m8. Ill post it here -> And for the Masterball if you need it i can in no time make a BTN and DISBTN of it. If you want to know: The icon was made using a VERY big white backround normal color pokeball. I changed the background to black removed some white spots and recolored it to a master look-a-like ball. So you can in some points call it a past-in icon.

Edit: Here is the masterball icon m8, plz still give me some credits for my work at it XD. Ill do the converting of the loading screen in a few hours. If you need the icon in a diffrent color for example blue as a great ball, then let me know and I will do them for you too.

Well, i can convert the loading screen, but i dont know the exact name i should rename it to, (.blp should it be right? Or .tga?)

Lol on the icon, if you can make more of them =D
And of ocurse! You get credits! ^^

EDIT: Icons are good! ^^ Make more of these,,

 

[Darkxs]

Ohh that is the problem XD it has to be BLP.

And make more! X) Yes I can make that one icon im more then 1000 diffrent colors just tell me what you want. The only once i can't cange the color to is white and black. (Grey is not a problem)

Edit: Darkxs's Poke-Icon-Pack a file which contains 9 diffren colored Pokeballs. Give me credits if used. (I know you do Yixx it's just in case any other use them.

Here you got them Yixx

 

[Yixx]

It is blp =P,,
But what name should it have? Cause i dont know that!

 

[Darkxs]

Sorry well the name has to be the same as the name it had before you converted it. So that would be hmm... Sec XP have to check... Pokemon RPG.BLP if not that then PokemonRPG.BLP If it still dosen't work then it must be because of it's a wrong file type, try to change it to textures istead of BLP (Only if it still dosen't work of cause )

The icons just has to be imported and then remove the WC3imported thing.

 

[Lord_of_sausage]

The master ball has a blue (or is it yellow?) "M" on its front Other than that, it's pretty awesome

 

[Yixx]

These are the 4 base balls, and probably the only ones i am going to use!
(Pokéball --------------------------Great Ball)

( Ultra Ball ---------------------------- Master Ball)

Darkxs: Can you make icons for these, and skins? Here is the original skin, can you make three so they look like above? =D (the red one is attached, so only the blue, yellow/black and purple ones please ;D)

 

[Darkxs]

Im back... Let me see... I will try you sid the great, ultra and master not red pokeball right?

 

[Yixx]

You already made the red icon, and red skin is attaced (so you can edit it to the other three)
Also icons that look just like those balls (except red again, cause you already made that =P) would be great! ^^

Question: Do you want to become 2D Art member of the Crew? Cause you are already sort of, only not official! =P

 

[HFR]

@Yixx: I'm still here, but, as I only have Dial Up, I can't connect all the time. I can stay after midnight, but next day there's school, so expect more ideas and tips in the weekends.

And one more thing: My name is on the loading screen!!!

 

[Yixx]

But of course it is! =P, you helped me alot,
You all helped me alot!

But one thing:
I have to manually make,set,trigger and put in variables 251 attacks
I think the Demo will take some more time if i want to set all of them! xD

 

[HFR]

I can't help you with triggers, but I can help you with the Gym leader name. What type will be the gym?

 

[thedeathunterxx]

lol

i dont care how people spell thedeathhunterxx ( even i spell it wrong most of the time lol.)

if it becomes a hassle, just abbrievate my name to **(TDHX)**

and about the fogs, you dont need an "overtime " transition fog for going indoors. you only use that fog transition for when your character is entering a different envirnment. If you want i could add a little trigger that can make entering buildings kinda cool lol.

ohh and btw, do you want me to adjust the terrain a little for overhead viewablility ?

 

[Yixx]

Gym is going to be Rock/Stone
City Name is going to be Hyundral (Or what was it?)
I made Leader a Druid of the Claw, but other trainers, dont know yet,,
Pokémon Center should be enterable now =D,,
Also Market, but nothing can be done there xD
I made the Poké Center and Mart inside, looks kinda crap, but better than before =)

Oh, TDHX, i didnt see the Battle Arena until now =D,, looks Great also! =D
Only that is NOT going to be the area where the fights will be xD It will be the one next to it, the Forresty one,,

 

[HFR]

Your terrain is alredy great, if you improve it... It will be better! And you talking about your name wrote wrong in the load screen? If is, it would be strange if it's wrote TDHX, As the people will think that's your real username.

 

[thedeathunterxx]

i haven't done all the battle fields yet =p

illl try and finish all of them next time

and umm i can terrain the pokemon centers and marts to make them look nice if need be.

and @HFR, i guess for credits and what not, you can write " thedeathhunterxx " with or without the extra H.

but TDHX is used for forums...so that u dont have to type my name over and over again lol

 

[HFR]

I'll think of an leader name tonight. And the city name is Hjundrel, I think, created by Wazzz and me.

Wazzz=Hundrell
HFR=Hjundrel

 

[Yixx]

Haha, well have to think of it again maybe, but the RBB is working Great now ^^
As soon as all attacks are Generated, and Variables for Attacks are made, the RBB is almost done! =D (Just some minor things that i might edit)
For the Gym, it will be quite some work,,
For the PokéCenters and Marts, i think i will do them myself ,, ill post a picture of em the day after tomorrow, got no time tomorrow,,
And then its a whole lot done!

(Oh, in the Demo, you will have a max of 5 Pokébals, you cant buy more, since a computer system is not here yet, but i also need to make a 'Catch System' xD, so it will take some time)

Well, after those things are done (the attacks is gonna be LOTS of work, but i might just do the needed attacks (Wild pokémon, first 3 pokemon, and Gym Pokémon,) to make it go faster =) It will be done alot! ^^,, so the demo is getting Closer and Closer! ^^

But i gtg now, see you not tomorrow, but the day after maybe ^^

 

[HFR]

Great, In saturday we talk more.

I'ts time to make my job helping you with models that I found:

Fishing Rods

Advanced Rod

Wooden Rod

Pokemons

Marowak

Magneton

Magnemite

 

[Wazzz]

Sick models, HFR! Nice job finding them! Trouble is, it doesn't seem to let me dl them (although I know I don't need them, Yixx may or may not have the same trouble. Also, I want them anyway ). That is, the Marowak, the Magnemite and the Magneton. The rod ones are also awesome, but are more awesome cause I can also dl them . Thank god we don't need to find a crappy substitute for Magnemite/Magneton (what would we even use?!?). Also, Marowak would have been difficult (could perhaps have a Gnoll models with the skull that looks like it's from a ram attached to its head via an ability ).

DEMO DEMO DEMO!!!!! DEMO DEMO!!!! WAKKA WAKKA DEMO!!!!!

Cannot wait for the demo . I think it will be great to finally see a slice of what we've been working towards. Also, once the bulk of the abilities are done, the main thing will be simply creating the places and the required triggers for each area (a job I'm thankful for not having to do as I am not that great with advanced triggers ). Then, after we've done the first area, it will be mainly transfering the triggers over to the next map and so on . Also, I think it should be made that once you get to the next area or maybe even the one after you can choose another starting pokemon (while keeping your old ones, of course) from the Johto selection, just to make it interesting. Then, at the end of the whole game you can find the remaining ones in different locations .

Hm... have you already sorted out what the first leader will have? Cause we don't want another Brock, you know? Perhaps give him a Geodude, Sandshrew and Rhydon? Onix is great to add, but we could save it for the Steel type leader (by then it will be Steelix, of course ).

I would love to finish the game and then alter my party for battling online . It would be awesome!

 

[Yixx]

Thanks HFR, they look great! =D,, only as wazzz says: I cant dl them =\,, something changed on that site? But whatever, i got an account so i should be able to dl them anyway,,

I have been thinking about the new areas and so on,, and i got 2 possibilitys:
1) You train very slow, this means you wont get lvl 50 or so on first world
2) You train on normal speed, but you wont be able to use your old Pokémon in the new world

What do you think?
(And yeah, im online for a few minutes =P,, going off now =)

 

[Wazzz]

Hm... well, in the classic Pokemon Gold, you basically transferred your pokemon from the first region to the next, but that was when you only had 2 areas. However, I like the idea of training slowly (you wouldn't want to dominate the game too soon ), but just do this by having the final Gym Leader only have a max lvl of about 40. Then, in the next region, the max level will be about 55, next lvl 70 and finally lvl 85. It could work like that, or even just reduce the max level a little bit (but whatever, you get the idea now XD). Then, that way, the final most trainer you fight (you know, the fabled legendary trainer such as Red and Steven) could have lvl 100's.

 

[Yixx]

Yeah, it might work, but i dont know how to set experience according to Pokémon lvl?
Cause i dont want this:
If you do 1v1, and you win, you get 25 exp (for example), but when you play with 2v2, and one creep dies, both of your Pokémon get 25, i dont want that,,
I want a total XP, and every Pokémon that (has been in battle and) is alive, to gain a part of the XP,

I think im gonna check serebii.net for some exp info,,

Found it =D,, only now i need to set even more variables! -.-

Question for you all: What icon to use for the attacks? Cause i really suck when i have to pick something out of thousands! =P

 

[Darkxs]

"Question: Do you want to become 2D Art member of the Crew? Cause you are already sort of, only not official! =P"

YES! I would like that I am working on your icons at the time. And have paused the working time on my own map. So far i have made 3/4 of the icons you have requsted.

I do got some attack type and armor type icons of the diffrent Pokemon types: Grass, Rock, Normal, Water, Fire, Electric and Psychic. I also made a cool attribute type icon. And making a for example Rare candy, Potion or evolution stone icon in the diffrent types would not be a problem.

If you do not got background music, I would be able to make some simple beats for you. But then I have to download the program first.

Does the loading screen work?

Can I get your MSN/E-Mail Yixx. It would be a better way to talk to you.
If you just want to keep using this chat then you don't have to tell me it m8.

 

[Yixx]

I downloaded music, but it wasnt looping, and it was way too big, so a friend in RL makes it for me,,

The loading screen isnt working, but what should i rename it to? =\
And you dont have to stop your whole own project for mine, =P, that is just way too much honor xD

And icons would be nice =D,, but there arent enough armor types for each type of Pokémon =(,, and i already made abilitys with buffs for each Pokémon,, Srry

AND WE FINALLY HAVE AN ART MEMBER =D
(Now only a modeler =| )

HRF and Wazzz: What icons to use for Moves? All the same, or per attack type an icon, or for each attack an icon? =\
I dont know =\

 

[Darkxs]

Since you are have so many problems ill go convert it myself. It's not a problem.

Here i a Map-previwe i have made:
(It's small so the size is small too)

And the Ultra and Great -ball icons:
(The Map Pre-view is in this file too. And is has to be converted first)

The Type icons I was talking about was not Spell icons, but armor/attack type icons, let me show you a example from my own map:

 

[Yixx]

I told you xD,, i already have a map preview! =P
It is on the first page,, and a map preview has to be 265x265, not 128x128

 

[Darkxs]

Well I just thought that I would make 1 so you could choose =P How dose the ball icons looks like okay?

(I Can easy resize the preview if you want it)

(The small size of the preview is too make it fill less)

 

[Yixx]

Ya! Perfect!! ^^ They look just like them!
Now only the Master Ball =P
And the skins, that would be Perfect!!

Meh, the preview i had before is ok ,, srry

 

[Darkxs]

You don't have to say sorry its allright it was I which made it without asking you for needing it =P I am working on the masterball icon right now. Then ill go convert the loading screen and then I think I would make you some evolution stones.
Ill post the loading screen next time ill I am online.

Finaly is the masterball icon done:

If it's not good enoth let me know and I will try to make it better.

 

[Wazzz]

The Icons for attacks should be different for each attack. DW about choosing too much, cause I will be able to do that (I like to create an overall feel for types and such with my choice of icons ). I can do that easily if you like .

For example, you could just use the Claws of Attack icon or the Ghoul Frenzy Icon for the Scratch technique. Just things like that would be easy for me to implement, mainly because there are 2 choices that I like and the one that doesn't get used for Scratch can be used for something else like Slash

 

[HFR]

Wazzz, you can only download the models registering in the site.

For the icons, I think you can use:

Naga Sea Witch's ultimate = whirlwind, gust or whirlpool.

Warlock's firebolt = Ember, flamethrower, Fire Blast.

Dragonspawn's Ice breath = Ice bean, haze.

I'll think more later...

 

[Wazzz]

Well, we shall start with a list of ingame icons for now, if I find something that really really really suits a certain attack and is too awesome to not use, I'll let you know. Until then...:

Tackle: Big Bad Voodo under abilities? (Seems awkward, but actually could go well...)

Scratch: Claws of Attack under items

Water Gun: Orb of Frost under items (might need to find a more suitable import )

Vine Whip: Poison Sting icon under abilities (unfortunately a passive icon, so an alternative might be preferable here)

Poison Powder: ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNDryadDispelMagic.blp (this is the path for the hidden icon)

Sleep Powder: Sleep under abilities (will do for now, anyway)

Stun Spore: Doom under abilities (will do for now, anyway)

Ember: Orb of Fire under items

Growl: Battle Roar under abilities (might not be that suitable, but will give the right idea)

Bite: Cannabilize under abilities

Withdraw: Spiked Carapace under abilities (use the research one)

Rage: Stampede under abilities

Harden: ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNEntanglemine.blp (this is the path for the hidden icon)

Tail Whip: Ray of Disruption? (Could work if there are no better alternatives)

String Shot: ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNPoisonArrow.blp (this is the path for the hidden icon)

Confusion: Detonate under abilities (looks pretty good to me ;D)

Fury Attack: Quill Spray under abilities (I think the Turn Off icon for this ability would be the better of the 2 options you will find)

Poison Sting: Envenomed Spears under upgrades (the research version would look better as it is not a passive icon)

Blizzard: Freezing Breath under upgrades

Over Heat: Flame Strike under abilities

Well, I think that covers all the attacks you'll need for now + a couple extra . Hope you like my suggestions!

 

[HFR]

Someone released an turtle shell icon here that we can use for Withdraw. I think it's on the first or second pages.

 

[Wazzz]

Cool! I was sceptical of using the Spiked Carapace for the Withdraw ability... Glad you found a better alternative! XD

Aren't there Koopa Troopa models for Mario? We could use those for Squirtle, Wartortle and Blastoise lol.

 

[HFR]

Yes. Dan van Ohlus made them with and whitout wings. But I gonna sleep now, already 3 am here. Sooooo tired...

 

[Lord_of_sausage]

Tackle: ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNAncestralSpirit.blp

Tri Attack: ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNScatterRockets.blp

Haze: ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNCloudOfFog.blp

Shockwave (The lightning attack): ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNManaFlare.blp

Lightning Bolt: ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNOrbOfLightning.blp

Ember: ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNFire.blp

Will-o-Whisp: ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNSoulBurn.blp

Can't think of other atm...

 

[Yixx]

I made a list of attacks i need for Demo,,
(These attacks are for: Bulbasaur, Charmender, Squirtle, Caterpie, Metapod, Butterfree, Weedle, Kakuna, Beedril, Rattata, Pidgey, Geodude, Ryhorn)(Which are all Pokémon used in Demo,, Srry)

Damage Attacks:
Tackle
Absorb
Scratch
Ember
Bubble
WaterGun
Confusion
Vine Whip
Poison Sting
Fury Attack
Gust
Quick Attack
Hyper Fang
Horn Attack

Effect over Time attacks: (attacks that do damage/effect over more turns)
Leech Seed
Poison Powder

Upgrade Attacks: (Up your own stats)
Harden
Defense Curl

DownGrade Attacks: (Down your opponents stats)
Growl
Sand Attack
String Shot
Tail Whip

So, if you all could give nice icons/icon ideas for these moves,,

 

[Byaku]

Don't forget that DownGrade Attacks only disappear after battle end, not after few turns (in real Pokemon game).

Also, do you have plan about Pokemon's element (like weakness)?
Don't forget ember can cause burn to enemy Pokemon

 

[Naim]

Hello! I am a real fan of Pokemons and i would like to play pokemon RPG! Please Hurry with making this map because im sure it will rock! I will give +rep to all who build this game! You have my moral support!

 

[Darkxs]

My the icons come from WOW? Then I can come up/ make alot of useful attack icons.

 

[Yixx]

Don't forget that DownGrade Attacks only disappear after battle end, not after few turns (in real Pokemon game).

Also, do you have plan about Pokemon's element (like weakness)?

Yeah i know, i think ima make an ability with like 100 levels, for Intellegence (Defense), each level increases decrease by 1, so lvl 4 decreases it by 4, so i only have to remove those abilitys
(Of course also abilitys for Strength and Agility)
And the other things, i need to think about it how to do,,

@ Darkxs: Your masterball icon is great! =D,, just like it! (You make em freehand? Cause they all have the exact same position and angle!)
And Rather no WoW icons,, you can of course base some of yours on them, but rather no rip WOW icons,,

 

[Darkxs]

I am using the pokeball icon and then remake them into diffrent once. Well I could change the position and angle. But I thought that it would be nice if it was the same for them all.

And I am glad that you like my work!!! =D

Have you tryed to convert the loading screen file to .MDX? I have heard that sould work.

I will try to make some attack/move icons for:

"
