Player classes:
EMPIRE
-Shade
-Slayer
-Knight
-Ranger
ALLIANCE
-Mage
-Rogue
-Warrior
-Archer
Each class has it's own strengths and weaknesses, thus effecting their stats.
As you grow levels, you can upgrade your stats and choose new spells or special attacks, depending on your class. Right now it's like 2% done, so don't expect anything soon.
I also need a title screen. (Heard Super Speler was pretty good)
Any suggestions would be great, or help making sprites.

I am curious about what you'll come up with in this project. I am glad to see new TI RPG programmers coming :)

I know it would be easier to make a bigger world with 8x8 sprites, but i'm terrible at drawing 8x8 sprites and it seems 16x16 sprites can just bring out more of a character.
EDIT: @Super Speler you wrote that when i wrote mine, but yeah i can wait a while, i don't plan on finishing this until end of school.
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on January 08, 2007, 03:19:00 pm
. I have lot of 8x8 tiles to give away somewhere, I'll try to find them as soon as i can.As for title screen spelli could be able to help as well ^^
Post by: graywolf on January 08, 2007, 03:21:00 pm
If you wanna do 8x8 then I guess you will have a main map with lots of stuff like shops, enemies, all at once and you can have tile movement or realtime as needed.
It seems that 16x16 will harder of the two, but I'm not sure: it's up to you.

Post by: trevmeister66 on January 08, 2007, 03:26:00 pm
This is probably a dumb idea since it would take more memory for matrix's and if i could just get decent 8x8 sprites, it would be fine.

The battle system will be a one v. one turn based thingy.
special attacks and magic spells (which you get from growing lvls) require energy. If you don't have enough energy, you'll have to use melee, which is based off of your attack, strength and agility.
Also, this probably won't work, but i wanted to make it so you could only get special armour and weapons from quests, but then i'd need to add ALL the quests for each character, and that seems unlikely to work, even though I think it would be a great idea to have quests.

Is anybody willing to make 8x8 sprites for me?
I'm a terrible sprite artist and need as much help as i can.
The following sprites would need to be included:
-castle walls, castle (if possible)
-trees, rocks, other nature stuff
-characters (knight, archer(doesnt need bow), mage, rogue)
-inverted sprites of previous characters
-houses, buildings, etc.
-anything else needed in an RPG
Thanks for the help.

Because of memory problems in the matrixes, all characters are part of the alliance, and you will fight against the Empire.
Expect a demo this Sunday around 17:00 Omnimaga time. You won't be able to do much, but you'll be able to walk around and see the sites and whatnot.

er i can create 33x42 matrix fine on my TI-83+SE. Even 42x33 works. What error are you getting?
Post by: trevmeister66 on January 18, 2007, 01:51:00 pm
and when i select GOTO, it goes to the very end.
Did you matrix only have 0's? (or does it not matter what number is in each spot?) EDIT: because mine had lot's of diff numbers.

I need a bunch of NPC's and was going to make it a competition to see what you all come up with. Everybody is eligible and you can enter as many different ones as you want. The winners will get their NPC put into the game (the winner would be the like the king for example) with your name as the name of the NPC. I'll need the front at least, and side views if you want to add them. All must be 8x8!!!
The following are possible characters:
King
Queen
Knights
Normal people
An Evil King & Queen
or anything else you come up with
eaither post them here or pm (i prefer post here) with the class it falls under.
EDIT: 16x16 ALSO!!!!!

The main city map is about 70% complete. None of the insides of houses/castle are complete. Still contemplating wether i should do 16x16 or 8x8 sprites for the inside... :???:
I have thought of the first 5 quests and should have them in the demo for tommorow (or is it tomorrow with 2 r's?)
EDIT: Map is 80% complete, and i think i've decided to do 8x8 sprites for the whole game, unless someone can convince me other wise ;)
EDIT 2: Map is now 100% complete (this is only the main city map, so right now you can't go into any of the houses :(
)EDIT 3: The 6th quest has been thought of, work has begun on the matrix for all the rooms (inside houses/castle)

If i do 8x8, about a 90% chance, then it should be in tomorow's demo.

Nah but seriously what I would like to see is an original menu-fighting based scheme and very detailed landscapes with NPCs that react differently every time you talk to them so they aren't static. That's just my suggestions.

The whole point of this release is to get tips and feedback from all of you who download it.
There is only 1 problem that i am aware of, and it is when you walk into a room (all rooms look the same, i need 8x8 sprites of furniture and whatever else would be in a room). If anybody can fix the problem, they will get full credit.
Enjoy :)

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on January 21, 2007, 08:58:00 am
I've tried over 6 times, and it always say the same thing. No luck sending the game to my calc, and it doesn't send in emus either. Note: I have a TI-83+Silver Edition.Do you use the timer/clock functions of the TI-84+ in this game? because the TI-83+SE doesn't support those, meaning that if you use them the game will be 84+ only and doesn't run on TI-83+/SE :(
Post by: trevmeister66 on January 21, 2007, 09:03:00 am
EDIT: hmm it does the same thing to me. Try sending them one at a time to see which one it is.
EDIT 2: After much research, i have concluded that the problem is coming from the program "_theta_BLKSUN" (which the title screen made by Spellshaper :(
) I am now working out a way for it to work.EDIT 3: There, it should be working now (you have to redownload it ).
The name of "_theta_BLAKSUN" should now just be "BLAKSUN"
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on January 21, 2007, 09:32:00 am
EDIT: tried without the program and edited out the line calling it, thats quite a huge map you have there O_O
are you sure you don't want to split it into smaller maps, like 4 maps for the entire town? also you may want to recall them from a program and store them into matrices so you aren't limited to 10 matrices :)
