WINTER BLAST REMAX - Beta Updated 15 June 2012

[Game A Gogo]

Great news!
I wish I could help you on anything, but you seem better than me in everything!
Just curious, how are you loading maps?

[Bee-Ant]

Anyway, is that CPU consuming thing something where you load
many things in one frame?

The main reason is in the new system I don't split the game, I use single file only (to avoid that damned LoadGame crash). So EVERYTHING is loaded when the game is started up. That's what consumes more CPU. But just in the beginning.

Bee, does Gameplay and Story updating?

Nope for both. Right now I mess with the library.
There's a lot of stuff to change to make a more balanced system.

I wish I could help you on anything, but you seem better than me in everything!

Each person has his own strengths and weaknesses...no need to worry about being underpowered.
Actually I have to do complicated things... like giving a character BaseStatTotal (BST) number and then distribute it to his attack, defense, speed, and health points in various and unique distribution, giving him ability and moves based on his BST, Species, Element, Habitat, etc... for all the characters.
It sure will be a great help
Interested?

How close are you to being done. Just wandering. This is my third most anticipated game of the year.

Hey bee, once you're done, what do you plan on making next?

What exactly needs to be done? A system where the user can modify it's character and default settings for enemies?
Or perhaps could the user alter slighter it's character stat according to the default where he gains BST points by fighting and leveling up?

I could probably help you, but I'd need more specific instructions

[Bee-Ant]

Still 35% more I guess...

I dunno. But for sure, Winter Blast 3 is waiting: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3997355/WB/WB3BattleScene.zip

I'd need more specific instructions

Here's the tool: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3997355/WB/StatGenerator.zip
All you need to do is just design the Stat Distribution for all the characters (avoid using Presets if possible)
After that, send me back the *sav file
Thanks

Bee, is all that zooming done on the canvas?? I never thought it would go so smooth with that many actors. Usually canvas is slow.

[Bee-Ant]

Here's my design: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3997355/WB/StatFactor.sav
If you need a reference.

I still think that my design is incomplete. Need to know other people design (since it reflects their opinion)

[Bee-Ant]

Yep, I use canvas
It's done with a simple code, that's why it's not too slow

[Game A Gogo]

Aww, I though you needed me for programming!

That's too bad for me I'll help you though I'll post my version of stats here when I get to it

[Bee-Ant]

Aww, I though you needed me for programming!

Don't worry...it's just the beginning.
After this, we (in case you still want to help me) will start to code the BaseStats

[Wertyboy]

I dunno. But for sure, Winter Blast 3 is waiting: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3997355/WB/WB3BattleScene.zip

Bravo! RPG Maker XP (or even VX) will lose us
so anyway. Isn't Remax and Winter Blast 3 the same?

[Bee-Ant]

Isn't Remax and Winter Blast 3 the same?

I should say "Remax is a mix of both previous versions, 3 is completely different version"... but I dunno, still don't know the rule of "version"

[NightOfHorror]

I would say that could be right. Look at Kingdom Hearts. Kingdom Hearts hasn't made Kingdom Hearts Three, but has made five so far.

[Troodon]

Is the loadGame crash something that happens to some games every time or is it something that can happen to any game any time?

I did a quick search for loadGame crash but found only DilloDude's topic where no one seemed to give solutions..
Is there a fix planned?
