Removed the content

Hey guys I bring three bits of news. Firstly, I have confirmed that the following features from the poll are to appear in CB
-Mapping
-Cliffs and Jumping
-Time
Secondly, I made a sketch of the titlescreen
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/DSC00234.jpg)
I know it's bad but I used a phone for the photo okay?
Thirdly, I have the idea of jobs and professons into pending.
Comments?
-
Hey, I'm trying to help you there!
-
@ Meta - The Jobs / Professions are in pending because we're discussing. They are veyr likely to be in the game :D
-
I know this. XD
-
For those who have no idea, Meta and I are discussing the professions
-
Hey guys it's been three days and I have done alot of planning :D. Soon I will begin spriting the job outfits so a walking demo can be made. Nothing much except you walk around but there is reason. Because I hope to have
Character Customisation
With a total of at least 10000 combinations
-
Not to seem like an ass or anything but I've never really been fond of the look of your sprites...they just don't look right. Still you seem likely to complete
one a game unlike myself.
-
I can understand your reason. So let's focus on that. Why don't you likle the look of my sprites? BTW, I have completed a game. I removed it though as THIS is the remake.
Also, I finished the basic sword sprites. I may get opinions or send them to a sprite expert as Im not too sure about the upward animation.

I don't like that it is so narrow and the left/right walking animations are screwy.
-
I can understand that. Let me ease this problem for you. The reason it's narrow is because Im trying the make the sprite in proportions to the head. So it looks right. The animations are a little bit harder to understand but they go in a specific order. Does this help?
-
Hey guys I have a long list of updates.
Firstly, I've got enough designs to start work on a demo
Secondly, Im looking for SFX and Music Composers so if you can help, please PM.
Thirdly, I have decided that you can start with one of 6 professions
-Traveller
-Fighter
-Marksman
-Mage
-Miner
-Mapologoist
The downside is that they will at this time have a max of 2 skills until the next demo.
Fourthly, I have designed the world of Orenna and it's even bigger than I first planned!!! You'll love the world folks!!
And finally, I have drawn up a plan for making the demo and it has been split into under 30 segments. It's alot but it's all worth the wait.
-
Is this triple post allowed? Because I would have though it was because there's a 5 post gap between the first two and a 3 day gap between the last two. Sorry if it's not allowed but I must speak!
I bring good news. Im finally programming the game and I have done
-Movement Engine
-Sword Engine
-5 Jobs (Only with Movement Engine though)
This is what's next
-Staff/Pickaxe/Walking Staff Engine
-Bow Engine
I hope to get an animated screenshot done soon.
-
I think I QuadPosted once. Still, that's good news.
Also, C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!
-
Cool. Quad post? NEAT!!! Yeh today Im doing the Staff Group Attack Engine. There's alot of them but it must be done.
-
My sincerest apologies for double posting but I have a first screenshot! I admit, it's no way as good as king mob's screenshot, but Im doing my in game in order of what needs to be done most.
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/BowShot.png)
-

That's a lot. Also, your post count is nearing THE FUTURE!!!!
-
Oh yeh. Anyway, the child engine is really easy. I just do a few sprites, add a movement engine and Im done :D
-
Looks good, I want more progress so I can help with sprites more.
-
Thanks kylink. How about you design some health/magic/energy/exp bars just for fun while you wait?
-
Hey, your post count is THE PRESENT!
Anyways, nice of you to help Kylink. And I can't wait to see how the child engine works in action.
almost passing you, hehe
-
Thanks kylink. How about you design some health/magic/energy/exp bars just for fun while you wait?
Okay, I'll be gone for a few days, but we'll see when I get back.
-
Thanks guys. The child engine isn't that exciting. It's for the start of the game. Also, Im working on bits Armour today. Spriting and Implementing them.
-
That's good.
ha, passed you up! hehe
-
Meta, does it really matter about who passes who?
Anyway, I have 18 bits of armour to graphically code. The content of them is already there but I don't have the graphics of them in it.
-
No, it doesn't. I was kidding mainly.
Also, are the armors all unique, or do you have the generic sets like METAL, IRON, MYTHRIL, etc.?
-
There are 30 bits of armour for each of the locations
-Head
-Torso
-Arms + Legs
In each of the 30 30 bits of armour, there are 3 types of strength
-Normal
-Light
-Metal
-
Extensive!
-
Extensive!
Oh BTW, I've done the Helm drawing engine already. And it works fully :D
-
Nice. That's good to hear.
-
Hey guys. Not much has been added. I had a change of plans.
What Im going to do is complete the following before demo 1
-All 14 Professions
-All 98 Skills
-Jumping
-All 80 weapons
-All 90 bits of armour
So then I don't have to add on as I go along.

10 days from my last post, I have done...
-All 10 Bows
-All 10 Pickaxes
-All 20 Staves (But Im redoing them to improve stuff :D)
-Fighter Class
-Miner Class
-Mage Class
-Archer Class
-28/98 skills
Unfortunatly, I have no screenshot to show my work :(. So here's what's left to do in the current section of my to do list.
-Inventory (Next)
-Traveller Class
-10 Knives
-10 Swords
-Graphical Effects for the 42 skills
Okay?
-10 Knives

Wow, cool. Sure you can't just PrtScn something?
-
I can do that, but there really isn't much to prove it right now. After I do the Traveller Class and the Swords+Knives, I'll make the Menus. That's when I will take another shot :D
-
This is turning into quite a big RPG, and it's being done pretty quick, I hope that once you start getting proof of the game that it will get more attention, it'll deserve it.
-
It looks bland right now but for the following reasons
-Not all 14 professions are done
-No tiling at all
-Only one NPC/PC (The player)
-Not all 98 skills are done
-Not all 80 weapons are done
And other reasons. Once Demo 1 is released, I hope for some attention.
-
I bring great news! I have done half of the knife engine and with it comes another screenshot!!!
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/DshAtkShot.png)
This time it's of two things. The first thing is that it consists of the basic engine of my favourite skill, the Dash Attack!!! The second thing is that it shows you the best knife in the game!
Assasin's Blood-In the war of the gods, this knife was used by a vengance warrior to kill assasins with. It's power for some reason now increases everytime an assasin is killed with the knife
I am still considering whether to make it's attack power increase everytime you kill an assasin.
Comments?
-
I can't download it. It says Page Load Error. I think you copied the wrong link or something.
Edit:Can you not download the demo? I guess not. The link in your profile should be:
http://www.zfgc.com/forum/index.php?topic=29984.0
Not:

-
There is no demo yet. I still have a long way to go. But when it's done, it will be epic. Thanks for telling me of the error in my post.
I will PM you when I have a demo ready for you :D (And only you :D)
EDIT: Almost forgot, nearly completed the swords and knives. I will also be improving the staves which will turn the total of completed weapons to 50.
Also, I hope to get the Traveller+Fighter class done soon (Bringing it the number of completed classes to 5) and implement graphic effects for the skills

Sweeeeeeet. :3 Thanks. If there's anything in the way of spriting I could help with...although your probably sick of me asking.
-
Hey it's fine!! What I really need are sketches/designs of plants etc. You see, Im stupid XD. Wanna help with that?
-

Plants? Like grass, flowers, trees, bushes, hedges? I don't know.
-
Yeh, I need sketches/designs of what realistic plants. You see, whenever I try to sketch/design them, they like something out of a kiddy show
-
Well, uh, I couldn't exactly sketch, but I did edit your screenshot with some plants into it.

Do whatever takes your fancy.

...Does that look good though?

It means just how much you want to do..
-
It means just how much you want to do..
Jesus Christ, it's impossible to do anything for you. I'm not spriting anything else.
-
Oh wait, i didn't know there was a screenshot. My crit is.....I don't think I have any... :D
THANKS AGAIN!!!!!! I'll modify this to my palette and dimensions. Thank you so much :D

Heh. Sorry for flipping out. I thought you saw it. :3
-
XD I thought you hadn't done anything XD. We both missed each other there XD
-
I bring news. I now have a secret profession done. I hope to complete the Potion throwing weapons soon...
-
As you know, in my previous games, I had a werewolf creature called The Wolf. (For those who don't, it's a mythical creature who has dark powers but uses them for good. Other people can be given the ability to transform into and out of The Wolf)
Anyway, I plan to revive The Wolf as a class. Now I need advice, should it be unlockable by story quests or another way?
-
Unlockable for sure. Via story quests sounds good.
-
--Old Posts---
Yeh so it's settled. Story quests it'll be. Also, a list of things I've done today
-All 10 Pistol Weapons
-Finished the 10 Potion Attacks
-Completed the 2nd Secret Profession
-Updated the Traveller Profession
-Nearly completed the 3rd Secret Profession
And also
ALL 80 WEAPONS ARE NOW FINISHED!!!! (Except for the 10 knives but that's only when I do the Mugger Class)
Hey guys I bring sad news. I've had to stop working on the coding for a while due to a horrible virus on my computer. It also means my time on the forums is almost lost except at college. This is until the situation is either solved or I get a new computer. Sorry guys.
OMG! A whole week without a computer at home!! :O
But things are still happening. Im writing the descriptions for each item in the game. With it done, I can then modify it anytime I like.
---Latest Post---
I bring some good news. I have been allowed to borrow a laptop until my computer is fixed. Although I can't work anymore on the coding, it means I can write the story scenes, the quests, the items and other stuff!!!
Let me know your comments. I hope to make a sketch of the intro scene to the game
-
Hey guys!! I came down with a cold and with that I got bored so I've been making a mock up using the Field and Colensa Tiles.
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/ColensaMock.png)
Remember this was just a graphical muck about, so nothing except the center character is certain. (Also you get a glance at the archer, chemist and mugger class. Try and find them.)
-
You've seen the engine screenshot, you've seen the mock ups. Now see the screenshot of actual Colensa tiling!!!
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/Colensa.png)
-
2 weeks and a new update!!!!
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/PauseShot.png)
--New Things Done--
Completed Traveller Class
Completed Mapologist Class
Completed Pause Engine
Started Menu Engine
-
Even though the graphics are simple, that looks rather good.
-
You think so? Sweet. Also, that menu is for the next 2 professions. The final profession can be identified later.
EDIT: I'm taking a short break from making it to work out what needs to be done next. So I may design the game cover (The image you would see on the video game case) if it was to be sold. Doesn't really benefit but it'll be fun!!!
-
Hey guys I bring news.
It won't be long until all 14 professions are complete so when they are done and I have the menus done, I can release a Tech Demo. It'll just be a simple walk,attack and use skills demo but sorry guys, I've delayed you from playing a tech demo for so long.
-
Oh sh*t! I left this topic for dead for over a month XD. Sorry about that. Yeh the game is really underway. I'll update the topic tonight. The game has vastly improved. Bugs solved, lots of features and stuff. Im quite chuffed about it. Hopefully when a demo comes out it'll become a featured project.
-
I finally returned to ZFGC! YAY!!! Bring out the trumpets...what? No trumpets?
Anyway, I bring an update and 2 new screenshots
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/HllwFsts.png)
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/LfeShne.png)
-2 Enemies made
-4 Field Areas now done (38 left)
-Bugs solved (Still a menu bug left)
-Textboxes
-Shops
-Items, Loot and Equipment
-Menus
-A dungeon (GASP!) - Tower of Shadious
-Etc
Tower of Shadious
South of the Hallow Forests lies the golden tower known as the Tower of Shadious. A 22 story high tower. 1 room explains the rules. 20 rooms contain monsters. The last room has never been visited. What's up there? Nobody knows....
Well except me. Basically, each floor you encounter a new monster. Defeating 10 of them allows you to go up a floor. And so on. The top floor allows you to become a tougher hero.
-
It looks pretty awesome , i like thats original. Keep up the good work!
EDIt: its made in gm 6 , sadly i cant play when you release it :(.

If you need it in vista, I can convert. Mark Overmars made a converter to make Gm6 games compatible with vista.

Or you can just upgrade to GM7... Legit or not, you can update regardless.
-
I know but I prefer gm6.

I'll continue this post tonight.
5/42 of the squares above are complete for Demo 1.
-
I know but I prefer gm6.
Well, I was only suggesting incase if you didn't know ;P. Anyhow good luck on your project :). I'll be happy to help you out if you need any..
-
Actually, this may be my last 2d project in GM. After uni, I may move to C++ or Java. Then I'll start selling games. This one is 95% likely to be freeware :D
Anyway, glad you all like it and I hope to have a demo sometime this year. Dungeons will return and the same bosses are back. Like the old one but with a better story, improved gaemplay and more content!!! (Plus a better graphics style, remember the old one? Lol, how !@#$% XD)

Sounds quite ambitious ;-). I have a long road ahead of me before I go to college(or uni, whichever you prefer). I'm only 15 after all haha. The graphics style really doesn't matter to me. I look at the game itself, the music more, and the technical stuff. Anyhow I think this should be freeware considering it is your last 2D game, right?
-
Your post put it up to 97% likely. I do have a long road ahead. I've nearly done 1/7 of Orenna
-
A small little update. I've been working on some of the quests for demo 1. Aside from the story quests, there is 8 (maybe 9) quests you can do. I think there may be a chance to unlock a profession....
-
I bring an update.
-Started work on programming Orenna Capital
-Majority tiled Orenna Capital
-Sprited the Orenna Capital Tiles
-Took a screenshot
I'll post the screenshot here tonight.
EDIT: Here it is!!
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/OrnCptl.png)
-
A few weeks later and I've released 2 screenshots.
-
I finally have got a technical demo with content. The link is on the first post. It won't be up for longer than a month depending on feedback.
-
No-one wanted to try out the preview demo? Anyone? Shame... :'(
-
I didn't even know there was a demo but I shall try it, once I've got more time to spare. At the moment I'm a bit busy with my research.
-
GOD DAMN 6 posts in a row, its world record!
BTW, demo what? o.o? Is there a demo O.o
-
Yes, it's been here for 3 weeks with no response except from Jeod.
-
I fixed your download link, twas a bit screwed up.
-
Thanks Darklight. That's a second time you've helped me.
-
The game is pretty fun! =D But its fun that i just can edit all the values in the save file xD
-
I've decided not to encrypt savefiles and textfiles. If you really wanted to, you could write swear words into the game XD
-
I know, its pretty funny that i can change like all the dialogues (i may be wrong). You can remake almost everything expect the main coding, :P
-
It's also so that you can play the game in different languages.
-
yah, right now im running around with 5.02 in speed and 2.02 in attack speed, lol xP
The only problem is that i got stuck in a damn tree on the left side when i was walking on it :o
-
ROFL!!!! 5.02 speed XD
-
You are so damn slow normaly. I wanted it to go faster :P
5.00 was a pretty good value but when i leveled it turned into 5.02.
and when i had 5.00 in attack speed i couldent hit the enemies like 90% of the times thats why i took 2.00 on that one. ;)
-
You really over did it then. 2.02 should be the max.
-
A big topic update.
Status : I have put a quest bar on top of the topic so you can see how many quests can be completed in the new demo. When the bars are full, the game has all quests. I also included the Fields of Orenna. Every blue notch means another 7 parts of the field are availible.
Concept Art : We got a concept artist at long last and an awesome one to boot! He will be working on them at his own pace. Keep an eye out for some eye candy.
Preview Demo : I am getting close to another Preview Demo. When another notch on the Fields of Orenna is filled, I will be sending it to testers and then releasing it. Keep an eye out for this very soon.
Maps : Until they're done, not all maps show you the landscape. However, maps will now show you of any monsters or NPCs nearby.
Screenshot : I released a screenshot a few days ago. Have a look
[Hood (http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/Hood.png)]
Finding Quests : Quests are now alot easier to find and update. Whenever a NPC can update a quest or give you a quest, a scroll appears over their head. This was easy to construct and will be in the game as a premanent feature.
Hood : As you saw in the screenshot, there was a hooded fellow by the Mugger. He sets you the majority of all quests. He sets you in total 70 quests. 5 in each location he's in. I shall give you some for you to find.
Orenna Capital, Colensa, Gora Mountains
Except for The Wolf, he will set quests at multiples of 10.
I hope to get a new preview demo out by the 15th of March.
-
I bring 2 images today. Both which are important in their own reasons.
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/8Crens.png)
These are the 8 Elemental Species of Crens. Going clockwise they are
Fire,Water,Earth,Air,Nature,Thunder,Light,Shadow.
Each species is similar to an animal/mythical creature
Fire:Wyrm
Water:Fish
Earth:Elephant
Air:Monkey
Nature:Centaur
Thunder:Snake
Light:Angel
Shadow:Demon
These are the 8 elements you choose to be at the start of the game.
Now for a screenshot with sickness
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/Shadious.png)
This is the FIRST working BOSS. But you won't be fighting him anytime soon. I forbid it. He's too hardcore. Lvl 99s only on this one.
Anyway, he resides on the top of the Tower of Shadious. He is Shadious, the god of Beasts. He holds the mightiest armour in the game.
Quite a reward really.
-
It might be because I still have a CRT screen. I can't see anything on the screenshot but the HUD. Most of the time selecting an image, would give some indication of what is on it, but not this time. I think you've made it to dark in that area. A game I can't see isn't a fun game to play.
-
What I'll do then Niek is in the Settings allow the user to select the darkness of the nighttime. How about that? Sorry for your inconvience
(If it's any gain, the screenshot is already out of date. And I only released it today).
-
I have to agree with niek, it's rather dark, and it's not just his CRT monitor. I had to strain my eyes to work out what was there.
-
In that case I'll fix it tonight as TOP PRIORITY.
Would you like it so that it doesn't become too dark if it both rains and is night?
-
I think purple/black/red would fit better for sickness :p like a fading filter that constantly fades in and out and it fades faster if you move/attack and such things. Would be cool x)
-
I have just noticed that this computer has problems with it too. I shall make this the highest priority. I will release a new screenshot for those who haven't seen it right.
-
Please tell me (Niek and Darklight especially) if you can see this.
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/Shadious-1.png)
-
You didnt ask me but i can see.
But its kinda dark. :o
-
Check the time. 12:30 am in the morning. It's pure dark.
-
Yeah but isnt that a little to dark? :o
Or will you be able to get some kind of torch or something later in the game? Cus its anyone if it will be that dark on the night trought the entire game :S
-
There will be an option to reduce the darkness in the Settings. It will go as a %.
-
There will be an option to reduce the darkness in the Settings. It will go as a %.
Maybe in important-vision spots (Boss fights, treasure digging) you should have some light source around such as a torch to fix this problem, and also have some amount of dim light in cities, made by oil lamps in the street. While in open plains there is no light.

Torch - Brilliant Idea :D
Oil Lamps - Orenna Capital has lights. Colensa doesn't. Yet...
-
It seems to look better. I'm currently behind a laptop. I will comment again when I'm behind the CRT. It still is pretty dark, so I have to agree with the others to use torches or other kind of light sources, like camp fires or fireflies.
But if I'm correct I recognize 1 blue dude and 2 yellowish dudes and a purple diamond with a darker circle.
-
I think a night depth settings would benefit you. It's been settled.
EDIT: In the settings menu, there is a night option. Goes from 0% to 80%. You will be able to fully play the game.
-
Is the 0% equal to day or is there a lower bounds on the darkness?
-
0% means you want no darkness. This is for people who have computers that don't support darkness.
-
Check the first post for a new preview demo!!!
-
Yey, awesome =)
-
Now there should be no bugs. Report any you find.
-
You should aim for sound now. It would also be good with a "tutorial" house like training room or something. There they teach you to talk, buy, fight and such things. Would help alot =)
Other then that, the game is original and awesome. Keep it up!

Tutorial House: Im sorry but I must disagree....ONLY JOKING!!! Best idea ever! Jotting down.
Sound: Just need to find an application for converting MIDI to .ogg and we're away.

Yey =]
When thats done, this game will be 100% pawnage. :)
-
If anyone knows of any converters please tell me.
-
It is kinda odd that you can see inside other houses when your in one.
But that has to do with the game style and should not be changed if you want the game to be builded like that.
Maybe you should start at the tittle screen when creating a new game? You know, when you start a new game the guy at the tree stand up and from there you start your adventure? That would be nice :}
MIDI to .ogg converter > http://convert-midi.com/midi-to-ogg.shtml
Free trial, i think that one should do it. Im still not sure cus myself i have never heard of the .ogg format :o

The next preview demo will include
-Orenna Castle! With paintings
-All of Orenna Capital
-More shops.
-More towns
-More fields
That's all for the next update.
-
I regret to inform you all that the latest demo has too many bugs. Hence I tell you not to play it. I will conpensate this by a repaired version very soon.
-
The game having a day/night system etc is cool, but having it so dark you can't play it properly is just stupid >_<
unless of course its supposed to be like that? (like the dungeons in alttp, needing you to use the torch etc)
In real life you probably can't see anything in some huge plain with no light, but gameplay, fun etc > realism >_<
I think I tried this at a friends house the other day, getting the demo from the GMC, but i noticed that the lamps do nothing to the darkness level? they're yellow, but they don' actually let you see much better. Try playing around with blending if you haven't :D
-
I shall try to improve the lighting system

I bring a new preview demo! Preview.3. Preview.2 had alot of bugs so only GMC got to play it.
Preview Demo: XP Version (http://"http://www.box.net/shared/x8xbog5ro7")
Preview Demo: Vista Version (http://"http://www.box.net/shared/0i4dbjc9m1")
This is what was added in Preview.3 Note that savefiles from Pv.1 and Pv.2 must be converted. See after additions
-Orenna Castle (Follow the brick road from Colensa)
-Element Wheel and God Following
-More shops. If you were a real time consumer, you could buy the lvl 60 weapon
-Tower of Shadious has a guardian...
Converting savefiles
Due to the Elemental Wheel needing an element variable, it would have meant death and destruction to your progress so far, but fear not. Just follow this list and you will be fine. You will need to put in the elem variable. But choose your number carefully
Non-Elemental: elem=0
Fire: elem=1
Water: elem=2
Earth: elem=3
Air: elem=4
Nature: elem=5
Thunder: elem=6
Light: elem=7
Shadow: elem=8

Here is the new version of the game!
To play you will need
Preview Demo: XP Version (http://"http://www.box.net/shared/x8xbog5ro7")
Preview Demo: Vista Version (http://"http://www.box.net/shared/0i4dbjc9m1")
and
Music Folder (http://"http://www.box.net/shared/gizplplla0")
You'll notice this time there's a Music Folder to download. Keep it with the game (whichever version your playing) and unzip them in the same place. For example
Games\Crystal Blade XP.exe
Games\Music\file.ogg
And you all remember the Gora Mountains right? The top row of the map which there's only one entrance? Well here's what lies past the Gora Mountain village. A volcano!!!
(http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l401/Tetiro/CrystalBlade/Dragonfang.png)
The volcano is so hot, it drains life from you (Until you reach 1 HP). How much it does depends on your level. Unless your a Forger of course...
