I'm working on a BASIC rpg called Final Fantasy : requiem of Shadows. It will use xLib and some hex. The storyline will be complex and feature plot twists that you'd never believe. Progress is slow, but steady.

anyways back to the topic i love the sprites, but is this game dead or not? i hope not cuase i love ff :D

Edit: lol i posted this before i saw Loki's post, well that anwsers my question

if you need help making tile maps u can use the old xlib its a lot easier  

Title: FF:ROS

but the old xLib's are also slower, especially the Asm-versions...

 The old one was so new people would understand it a little more, but now I guess he was going for the best way. He made it amazingly fast, and I think it's a great base engine if you need one.

Great, but how can he detect if 1-4 is pressed?

Title: FF:ROS
Post by: Spellshaper on April 30, 2006, 09:56:00 am

as far as I know, the key detection of the pic doesn't mess with getkey, but cause the exit upon key detection is soo damn fast, getkey will notic a key being pressed AFTER the pic.

Just make it so that if no key is detected load the pic again and let the user choose again...

I'll check this theory of mine asap ^^

Title: FF:ROS
Post by: kalan_vod on April 30, 2006, 09:59:00 am

Ah, sounds like a plan. I never messed with rigview.

Title: FF:ROS
Post by: Spellshaper on April 30, 2006, 10:03:00 am

tried, aaaand....
it workz like intended!  :lol:
so yes, he can just use the pic with the following loop:

c1-->

CODE

ec1:DelVar K :getKey :While min(K≠{92,93,94,82 :Asm(prgmθFFROS :getKey→K :Endc2

ec2

the only downside is that holding a key will reult in uber-flickering... but who cares! B)

Title: FF:ROS
Post by: josephmarin on April 30, 2006, 10:24:00 am

Yeah, I made sure it worked like that before asking him to make the second pic. Thx again, btw ^_^ for the 5th time today =P. usually this sort of thing doesnt work out for me, but im so glad it did

Title: FF:ROS
Post by: kalan_vod on April 30, 2006, 10:44:00 am

c1-->

CODE

ec1:Repeat min(Ans={92,93,94,82 :Asm(prgmθFFROS :getKey :Endc2

ec2

Title: FF:ROS
Post by: josephmarin on May 26, 2006, 08:01:00 pm

well really the only thing thats actually been done concerning the game is the opening title screen and character names and somewhat of a plot. all of which i believe can be found earlier in this topic.

The main character is Soma, an orphan raised by a group of shamans and wizards and various other magic folk. he's about 19 years old, 5'10 with longish black hair that falls around his scarred face, giving him a rough look. his eyes are dark gray. His preferred weapon is his magically enhanced dagger which he got from his father before being cast out. the dagger was only a regular dagger, but through his training he'd cast spells on it to make it better. His father had abandoned him during a depression that lasted about 100 years. his family had cast him out when he was 10.

The depression is mostly over now, and 4 rival groups seek to control the land.

The secondary character is Lilly, an 18 year old girl with multi-coloured eyes and long blonde hair. 5'6 feet tall, she doesn't look like much for fighting. Booksmart and resourceful, she's had little trouble making it through the depression. She's an archer and is (probably) in love with Soma. She meets Soma when he saves her from the clutches of a gang of misfits at the edge of the town they live in. She's lived with her family throughout the depression and has never known the horrors of true combat. Her weapon of choice is an old bow her great-grandfather carved. She spent most of the depression making arrows for her bow, and has gotten the technique down perfect.

thats about all i've gotten for the game. I'll let whoever takes on the project (if anyone) take care of the rest. I only hope it stays imaginative and great throughout the game. Keep in mind: this is a somewhat horror story, with totally uinexpected plot twists. also, try to throw in some humour (but dont make it stupid or pointless...i want a high-quality game here.) make the maps beautiful and expertly done. if the lanscape is desolate and a wasteland, make it look as such, but keep the quality of the graphics as high as possible. you really dont have to follow these guidelines, but if you're going to take on this project, i'd really really rather you did. Also, i wanna be the first to test it =P but other than that, its all yours. You can contact me any time if you have questions or need inspiration. Good luck to whoever does this.

Title: FF:ROS
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on May 27, 2006, 12:30:00 pm

Post by: josephmarin on May 29, 2006, 04:47:00 pm

Okay...all hope is not lost. After sifting through mountains of BASIC games in the TIcalc.org database, i stumbled across an old rpg i was making. Carefully removing it from the shelf, i blew the dust off the ancient program and sent it to my calculator. It was pretty good, considering it being 1 year old (at least). So, hesitantly, i took a peek at the sourcecode. What awaited me was too horrible for words...pure and simple unptimized BASIC code!! Okay, maybe not that bad, but it was kinda beginner. So what i'm planning on doing is updating the code a little and change it a bit to fit the needs of FFROS. The goal: salvage this wreck of an rpg and make it FFROS, or some unholy cross of the two. Either way, hope is restored!

I cant wait to try it, I had some chars sprites but they werent too good :( so I deleted them  

Title: FF:ROS
Post by: josephmarin on June 01, 2006, 08:56:00 am

well, once Spellshaper finishes the sprites (thank you!!) i'll send them over to Elfprince to do the spellbook quest (thank you!!!) and then i'll release a demo...or maybe wait till i do lvl 2

u got a city screen :)

Title: FF:ROS
Post by: josephmarin on June 01, 2006, 03:28:00 pm

Very nicely done ^_^ its exactly what i was looking for =) Im also re-writing the first part so it appears you're already IN Rhyda (the new name for the city - thanks CDI!), then Mina comes up to you and asks if you can find the spellbook which was stolen by a gang. So its definately coming along more modern/futuristic now, and soon i should be able to produce a good demo. possibly another screenshot. I'll get it optimized when i release the final version.

BCTurk or Spelli, either one, i need a good market scene, weaponry scene, and armoury scene. the items are this:

market: Potion

weaponry: Dagger
       Sword

armoury: Shield

The character sprites I made:
(size doubled)

I personally don't like them very much, but 8x8 is difficult... I actually made them as 7x7, I looks nicer than 8x8

I can try again I guess ^^

im also switching back and forth between ideas...could you also make me a set of basic ruined city sprites as well? same purpose, but im thinking of doing the spellbok quest either in the bad part of town, or just outsite the city gates

I think you are the first girl on Omnimaga so far, assuming you are the same member than on MC :) , we need more girls indeed ^^

I think there is some that have an account on Unitedti forums but they got active for around one week or so I think and they left :( and on MaxCoderz back when I used to post here there was a girl with Tennisgirl nickname I think but that was back before the forums got hacked

Title: FF:ROS

-char sprites (done)
-set of basic ruined city sprites (30%, got some bad examples...)

about the basic ruined city sprites: you weren't really very exact about what how big style etc... ^^
8x8?

Title: FF:ROS
Post by: josephmarin on June 07, 2006, 07:46:00 am

Well, actually, take your time on those. I'm doing another rpg with xlib which might become the new FFROS. I'm doing sprites on-calc (which isnt the easiest...) for now...im also going to Oklahoma for a week or two so i'll do some work on it there. Anyone live near Tulsa? Love to meet someone in the community, y'know =). Anyway, old FFROS is on pause till i get word back from elfprince about the spellbook quest. If he cant/wont, then this new rpg will take place of the old FFROS. Keep in mind im still kinda new to xLib so i'm just toying around while doing progressive work. May give you a screenie when i gett back =P
