add me on msn i'll help you get it. the way unnown made it works for any PD item, not just weapons

Alright. soooo 90% credits to Unnown and 10% to me lol. Animated weapons! i.e. Your char is just standing there with a sword that's aflame. Why are the flames just standing still? Well now I can have your character standing still with fire rolling off the blade =) Unnown did all the scripting for testing and then showed me parts of it and I had to figure out the little things like saving the item info and all that jazz. But seriously, major props to Unnown.

Not sure man. You have any source edits dealing with items?

Wow nothing you said was remotely close to a proper argument. But alright I see how it is. Just delete this thread. I'm not fucking showing any of my graphics again. For the record, I can take criticism I.E. Devogen's post. I won't, however, take rude insults to my work I.E. Kreator. Anyways. Just delete this thread cus I'm fucking done with it. And I'll never have respect for Kreator or you Godlord. I'm not going to reply to this anymore as it's time consuming.

Oh no it wasn't on this thread. There was one in the mapping showoff that i explained my method

100% custom doesn't necessarily mean impressive to me.

Browse the forums a bit more. I already stated they're from a 3d source.

And btw. I did look for more recent work from the world of hyrule. I saw nothing impressive. I'm done with this nonsense. If you can't properly criticize work and have to resort to bashing it. GTFO my thread. Feel free to give me points I can work on in a proper manner though.

alright if you wanna have a debate by quoting every thing i said, then let's have a fucking debate. First of all, let me say to everyone that's telling me not to get offended by him criticizing my work… There's a difference between criticizing and bashing. What devogen did, that's criticizing. Kreator's rude tactics for criticizing is bashing because he thinks he is a graphics god. Nothing about his "criticism" was positive. He was basically saying "you suck. good job trying" where as devogen's was "heres some things to work on." now, onto you kreator... > Gh0st stop getting so defensive. Get your head of your ass and learn that your sprites aren't the best, and there's always room to improve. You will improve, but an attitude like that will hinder you. You seem to think you know everything about pixel art but clearly you do not. I don't think my sprites are the best. I never said they were and I've seen examples that were better. I think you need to learn that your shit isn't the best. You were the most critical about Ambardia's 3d render and now you're bashing my work. Yes bashing, not criticizing. I don't think I know everything about pixel art, quite frankly I don't really know much at all I just wing it. I already know some things I want to try changing to get better. No where did I claim I was the best or that i knew everything. > For one it doesn't look like you have a predetermined palette. Most of your paperdoll doesn't blend well with the sprites, and tiles. No rulebook on life says I need a predetermined palette. I make my armor, sprite, and tiles look like i want them too. But just since you brought this up… the only pictures in this thread have about...mmm...3 tiles? So you're gonna judge based off 3 tiles...I think I made my point on that one. It also only showed 1 sprite which I haven't messed with yet other than putting shoes on it but I already plan to change the sprite so you have no clue what it's gonna look like and therefore no need to say anything about it because this is a PAPERDOLL thread. > Your shading is not realistic, in fact, some of it is pillow, and some is equidistant. Your poor attempt at dithering was also an epic fail, and you've shown no use of effective contrast, highlights, or anything else to make it resemble anything realistic. I love the epic fail statement. An arrogant statement that's proof that you think you know everything. So I guess in the example i provided about good shading you think that the artist that drew the original had bad shading… considering the shading of the two matches. In regards to dithering, it turned out the way I like it. I used the same method on the straw hat and the skirts and I like it. And yes in my opinion highlights is one of the few things I need to work on so why can't you leave a statement like "work on highlights" instead of saying my template sucks and my paperdoll is messy chunky and poorly shaded/detailed. Words have diction and the diction of your statement, is derogatory which is why I got offended. Learn better diction if you don't wanna look like an ass. > Just for your information, big isn't always better (no implications please people). Detailing smaller pixel art can often be intricate. I think common sense tells that with 10 pixels you can only shade so much as compared to 30 pixels. This may not be the right proportions, but I make my point either way. > Quote from: Gh0st … on December 10, 2008, 07:22:22 PM > > and besides, who the f are you? a 9 post newb? Ok. i'm sure you know so much about eclipse and pixel art. good fight. > > So a post count reflects how much someone knows about Eclipse and Pixel art? I hope your kidding, because that is the most ridiculous thing I've heard. Well, almost as ridiculous as you thinking your a good spriter. First of all, when they have 9 posts and just hop on and say something and in an instigating manner such as he did, it proves that they're not really that intelligent and probably are mooching off of other people for resources. So in my opinion yes, when you have that few posts and post things like what he did that he knows little about eclipse and spriting. And thanks for that little remark at the end because that proves my point that you're not criticizing, you're bashing. That's a clear insult. So now I'll feel free to insult you as I wish. You arrogant son of a bitch, you think you're some graphics god. You insulted Ambardia's work about his work which i'm pretty sure we all know he wasn't faking it. You insulted me and my work and put words in my mouth. I never said I was the best. And i'm pretty sure that if everyone else likes it and you say it sucks… That we can derive from that who thinks they're the best. > Goodluck, I'll drop you a personal message in half a year when you drop your game, or it epically fails. > > Doubt me? Well prove otherwise. > > Regards, > Ass hole Alright. Starting today, in 6 months when my game is still going and people are playing on it, I'll be sure to drop you a personal message calling you out on this rude statement as well. Your's truly, Jake

Keep dreaming at which part? Compare that paperdoll to the picture right beside it. - The shading is the same, the shoulder pads are light in the center and dark on the top and bottom therefore a is true. - b, i think it obviously looks just like the picture beside it sooo stuff it on that one too. - c, it is big enough to see…. - the only one that's debatable is d but i'm saying it's realistic compared to his character that's not even holding his axe. and besides, who the f are you? a 9 post newb? Ok. i'm sure you know so much about eclipse and pixel art. good fight.

It's not a war but kreator pisses me off cus he thinks he's some graphics god and i've never seen anything mind blowing from him. he criticizes everyone's work and has nothing of his that proves he's so much better.

@Kreator: > Yeah well your a retard. ;) Yeah well not really. Retards don't make it to college on scholarships and academic award grants. Retards also wouldn't be able to edit source. And to the person saying he should be able to judge the judger, I didn't judge him. I judged humans.

Updated Geirrod's set. Now has the axe =) Also added Ull's headdress

@Kreator: > In my opinion, the templates to begin with are awful. The women look so masculine and ugly, and the paperdoll is messy, chunky, and poorly shaded/detailed. And in my opinion, for someone so critical of everyone else's graphics, you should probably actually have some that are better before bashing others.  that's some of the only custom work i've seen come from you and here's what i think a) you're shading is no better than mine cus there hardly is any… b) b, it's nowhere close to realistic c) the template is nothing good either considering it's about as big as like 40 pixels. d) it's not even holding the axe. let alone holding it in a normal position.  a) well shaded. don't even try to argue that b) looks just like it's supposed to c) big enough to actually see the armor -.- which means i had to spend more time working on it than i would if it was a 10 pixel thing….you get my point d) it's actually...realistic. But hey. That's just MY opinion. Take it as you will.

He won't reply >.< typical human nature lol

Instead of posting a new thread everytime I get a new PD item, I'm just gonna start a showcase here in an organized fashion. -=-=-=-= God Items =-=-=-=-  Saga   Geirrod  ~~- Still need to make his axe~~ Ull  -Still need to make his bow and tassets  Thor's Knife (no model, just made for fun) -=-=-=-= Basic Armor/Weapons =-=-=-=- .: Rangers :.  -Bloody Wolf Mask is already fixed -Still needs chest/leg armor and weapons .: Magic :.  -Runed Sallet is already fixed. -Still needs chest/head armor and weapons -Might recolor to make it more magic-y instead of matching melee .: Melee :.  -=-=-=-= Rares =-=-=-=-  First Frame: - Assassin's Cover - Viking Longsword - Ancient Brassard Second Frame: - Viking Guard Helm Third Frame: - Old Viking Helm NOTES: I only claim to have made the following custom: -Daggers from melee sets -Robes from magic sets -First and Second frames of rares -All of the god Items The rest was all resized/edited/recolored by me. P.S. fix the damn forums cus I made this once and tried to post and lost it all to that damn internal server error or w/e. =)

Yeah I already took care of that.

BTW, I changed the breast plate into like…a waste plate.....

wow. you have no idea what a PNG is for do you?….. it looks nasty because the PNG normally allows blurs and fades and stuff into just transparency. No other format allows that. He's saying that with a picture that fades into transparency, your method will fill in the transparent parts with a color and won't let it blur into transparency, it'll blur into black.... his method will actually show the transparent part.

For the record I didn't say it was fake. I like your work. I just think the nutcrackers look odd.

ok. A) don't post questions in the shoutbox. It just pisses us off. B) I assume you used the search on the main page. yeah that lags terribly. So click search (the word, inbetween arcade and profile) and then try searching that way. works for me.

dang…you pwn dude.

 The wolf masks are recolors from a helm i found on a sprite. The last helm, looks like a raven helm, is custom drawn by me. modeled after the norse god Saga,  Finished full saga… 

Unnown and I are gonna work on it. If we need help I'll let you know =)

The nutcrackers look a bit odd.
