Topic: I'm really anxious to show off some new material...

[Imzogelmo]

Thanks to Lenophis, we've finally added an event that has been a long time in the making, and I'm anxious to show it off.  I guess movie form would be the best way to do it, but whatever we do, I think it'll be enjoyed by all. 

[Imzogelmo]

OK. We discussed it, and Leno made a movie to show off. Place comments in the topic. Thanks.

It needs some dialog on which dog hits who... and it needs to be shorter overall (the battle).

Edit: My attention span is as short as the CT race at the fair.

 That's some pretty sophisticated hacking...nice work! 

I guess I'll be the one to take the heat: any chance on another demo coming up? 

[Panzer88]

nice, yeah, if you want to do it multiple times in a row it might be better to have it be a bit shorter.

@darkmage

they prolly aren't going to do another demo because they are closer to final release that it would end up being most of the game and it would be better to just wait and do it all in one bang.

speaking of which, I know you guys don't do percentages, but you figure you have like 80% of the main content of the story playthough complete? or maybe all of it? and are just working on features and or bugs?

not trying to nag, but just understand the process without giving away the goodies. what have you been struggling with lately?

Can we get a YouTube version, please?

Any demo would show too much now. Just be patient, you'll know when we get close to being done.

The only thing I am sure on is that we have most of the core tweaks in. For the menu, battle, and event cores, we have just about every tweak in them. The rest from here on out is mostly data. I have no idea of a % on that, so take from it what you will. Just remember, rebalancing a game is a slow and involving process.

My dialup cries when I upload 11 megs once, so I think I'll spare it the pain on a second upload for now.

Well, all right then, I'll wait.

[Imzogelmo]

I wouldn't say struggling so much as "not having much time"; but things like this (with events and movement scripts) seem to take a long time to develop, mainly because there's still some unknowns with the events, and even with great planning, it still doesn't always go like we expect.
Also, there's a ton of data to add. We add some, then go back and revise it, and sometimes that leads to re-working stuff again (things thought to be done before)... so it's hard to put a percentage on it.

[vivify93]

No, it's not. You guys are at ??%.
See, it's simple.

Bwahaha, that's awesome. You just made my day right there.

No problem; I aim to please
