@slym: > Both are great places for critique. Before you go to those places for critique you'll have to have much more than just 1 item. Most topics on those forums include full sized mockups and animated sprites. An important part of being a pixel artist is learning to be independent. A great pixel artist can create top quality work without top level critiques. > > Good luck with your art! ok thanks and i was wanting to get the basic concepts before i made 1000 crappy sprites then had to go change all of them or just start over xD

@ViciousDead: > BMP -> loads slow, big file > PNG -> loads fast, small file > > Use BMP for your game, but don't post BMP on the forums, instead use PNG. It's to reduce lag and some people can't see BMP(I don't know why). > > Scythe looks okay, but it does need more contrasting/defined colors. oh sorry i was not aware i was only supposed to upload .png ill try and change it when i get home

thanks i fixed it and reuploaded :) anything else

put the npc in the way of the door out and just kill him? :)

well the way i use them makes it ok they are not included in any loops and are only called when needed then there gone so it does not interferer with performance or anything like that in any horrible degree and of course i use them cuz im familiar with them it is the same logic that when im making a random program which i some times do i use vb6 instead of a newer "better" version

i know how bad they are i just like using them it reminds me of my very first script… which was a bad A CTF script using .ini's if he still remembers ask greendude i made it for him and he liked it NBD :)

but i love .ini's… they are so easy and useful :sad:

>! try using .ini's and have it set up something like [PAGES] 1="once upon a time" 2="there was a book!" >! and have the book script be one page auto then do Dim pages as Int or whatever if ReadFromIni("book1"," pages", (pages + 1)) "" then have it turn the page and display the text :) if you can understand then i hope it helps if not pm me and ill try to help more

ouch i dont consider myself a fool im just lazy and i know EO is faster and less buggy and all that but i dont want to take the time to reprogram all to ES stuff i like i just dont have time between saving so i can take formal programming classes and my current school i cant spend that mush time when a older version has most of it already done

Why is EO like the default version? and outdated is a matter of opinion and i prefer some of the features of ES over EO it is easier to add the things EO has to ES than the other way around and this is the last one i have to do. but ill try to figure it out thanks for your time anyway :)

@Robin: > There's already a resource system in EO. Why would you need to make a new one? :| he wants to use ES :| and it turns out they do not save right but they still show up in the editor :/ off the top of your head can you think of what or where the problem might be if you had to guess… besides the engine and switch to EO :) >! OR ME!!!

what did u use instead of npc's I figured it would be easier and work almost the same and take less time to augment an existing system than to make a new one

went ahead and put it and it does save the tool value as far as i know. if i close everything and open it up the number has not changed so i assume it is saved right

it just does not work i get no errors

im trying to get it so where the wep you are useing and the npc must have a attribute value the same but it will not work and I do not know why here is what I have there he is trying to remake EO's resource system..well I guess I am but he wants it ``` Dim Tool Tool = (Item(GetPlayerInvItemNum(Attacker, GetPlayerWeaponSlot(Attacker))).Tool) If NPC(NPCnum).Behavior = NPC_BEHAVIOR_RESOURCE Then If Tool = (NPC(NPCnum).Tool) Then CanAttackNpc = True End If If Tool (NPC(NPCnum).Tool) Then Call PlayerMsg(Attacker, "you must use the right tool for the right job", RED) Exit Function End If End If End If ```

Well PMO is done with with me so im back on the market

will do thanks for the help

only if you take it too fast and hurt yourself

you should if you do not get hurt you will have fun

Fine here you go :) Parkour is the physical discipline of training to overcome any obstacle within one's path by adapting one's movements to the environment. * Parkour requires… consistent, disciplined training with an emphasis on functional strength, physical conditioning, balance, creativity, fluidity, control, precision, spatial awareness, and looking beyond the traditional use of objects. * Parkour movements typically include... running, jumping, vaulting, climbing, balancing, and quadrupedal movement. Movements from other physical disciplines are often incorporated, but acrobatics or tricking alone do not constitute parkour. * Parkour training focuses on... safety, longevity, personal responsibility, and self-improvement. It discourages reckless behavior, showing off, and dangerous stunts. * Parkour practitioners value... community, humility, positive collaboration, sharing of knowledge, and the importance of play in human life, while demonstrating respect for all people, places, and spaces. Free running or freerunning is a form of urban acrobatics in which participants, known as free runners, use the city and rural landscape to perform movements through its structures. It incorporates efficient movements from parkour, adds aesthetic vaults and other acrobatics, such as tricking and street stunts, creating an athletic and aesthetically pleasing way of moving. It is commonly practiced at gymnasiums and in urban areas (such as cities or towns) that are cluttered with obstacles
