wow, now i see why this community is so big ;) lol, well i guess you guys have a point, it's just that my attempts at shading always end up looking like a 3rd rate job :icon_crap: im getting rid of the shrubs (its supposed to be wasteland, but meh wth.) and im going to make a backup copy well away from where im saving these alternatives, last time i made an alt i accidentaly saved over the original XD

> if you pixel shade this correctly it could look really good

Anyway how is Algerath coming along? Any beta testing anytime soon...? -

@Edache:
> God I don't think the image was that bad, I mean you were using paint. =P The shadows were weird but it could have been explained as if that was the planet's texture, not shadows or something… lol. I actually liked its simplicity

> If you're in photoshop its even better, make random dots of different sizes (keep them small though), duplicate the layer twice, give both duplicated layers a Gaussian blur, one of the two layers give a big value to the Gaussian blur, the other with a small value, then change the blending mode of both to linear dodge, It gives them a nice glowing effect...

Seriously, that looks real. you deserve to be called god xD -
@Chief:

i have both, GIMP is exactly the same as paint from experience and photoshop is too hi tech :) -
lol 1/10 for your "log" -.- you can't criticise me dude, i too have seen your abominations :evil:
-
@Chief:
> hmm, the shading on the "planet" is really, not good… lol
you try drawing a planet with shading on it in paint, then complain. -
I am also not very good at large scale gfx, i prefer pixel art tbh.

working on the background pic i got bored k. and also keep it in mind that this is only stage 1 and stage 1 alternate (don't really like the first one so i made saved an older version please tell me which you like best), i usually do 4 stages to each of my images, the tiles were for a space game, but now anyone can use them! :icon_music:
REMOVED THEM CUS THEY SUCK :P -
not anymore human.

yeah, these will be the only episodes where they return to earth ^^ but apparently (from what i read in a tvguide somewhere :azn: ) earth is ravaged in the new episodes, i think that these few will be fairly intriguing :rolleyes:

i made some 32 x 64 sprites but in the character creation screen the sprites switch between half a head and the left leg same when playing ingame,

this might fix the problem.
More later i gtg right now -

Hey, some people Love Deep storylines, and you don't even need to read the huge block to be able to play the game, This is for RPERS! :P

Lorakil starts in a FALSE city called Havendale where there is a small tribe of people living in the center. everywhere in the game will be PVP except settlements and Designated training areas for newbies. The PVP everywhere concept will allow groups of players to form Caravans and convoys for travelling throughout the world, it will also allow for Self-Imposed Raider groups who can attack anyone who is travelling for items/cash, Lorakil is a basic FREE FOR ALL game where only the strongest survive.
The game is set in a parallel universe where Earth is called Lorakil.
There are hundreds of branchings from the main story line such as, The Primatives a race of genetically Evolved Apes.
Main Storyline:
In the year 2055 American scientists estimated the world would be Inhospitable by the year 2100, Countries struggled for 26 years to reduce their carbon emissions, but they all knew secretely that it would never work, so each first world country in secret built Large Spaceships, each capable of holding 1,000 animals and 5,000 people, each nation selected only the very best.
In the year 2081 A Ukraine born Spy called brorski vlostikof, infiltrated the chinese silo, where the chinese spaceship was being hidden, he hacked into their computer mainframe from a remote terminal inside the ship, he downloaded all of the blueprints, building info, costs, and a list of names for all the chinese that where going in the ship.
2 years later he sold all of the information to a Triad boss, who then took over the only chinese TV channel and showed the plans and names on Mainstream TV when the most people watched, Outraged that the chinese government were doing this and that they weren't chosen, chinese citizens and miliary personnel when up in arms against the chinese government, war broke out in china and people began to hunt down and kill the chosen people, Fearing the same could happen in america and The United Kingdom, they prepared to leave Lorakil.
3 years later a deadly disease born from the Toxins in the air swept across the world travelling on the winds, killing off five-sixths of the worlds population. The few that were still alive that had been chosen to leave the planet continued their preparations in sealed air tight bunkers with air purification systems the size of small houses, for another 9 years, at the end of which they were ready to leave and so Left, leaving no one in charge of america or the United Kingdom. By now of course the human race was barely surviving, they lived in small tribes.
One day in the year 2090 when man kind were the closest to extinction they could get, children were being born with immunity to the toxins that had plauged humans for over 10 years, slowly but surely mankind was winning, over the next 20 years with their immunity, humans were living without gas masks, the only problem with this was that there was no law, order or civility left, so it was every man for himself.
This is where you Enter into the game, you were of the first generation born with immunity, you are now twenty years old.
Each man must decide his path, although sometimes it is not clear what that path is at first, it will all become clear ~ Athos, Hunter's God
I've almost completed the GUI, I have a server ready for us the moment we complete the game, the 4 main skills are STR, DEF, AIM, and END(endurance) there won't be any Magic spells, ETC, this game will contain guns, homemade and commercial weapons such as pipes, dustbin lid shields, dustbin armour, wooden spears, baseball bats and football armour, we need tilesets containing, city buildings wrecked cars, chainlink fencing and factorys, a corpse here an there would be nice too, obviously we'll need more to be drawn.
Im also looking for a Dev team who can help get this done. 2 guys who can do Sprites and paperdolls, another who can do the scripts and one more who can draw pictures to show in the background while the story floats upscreen like this: [http://listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/art-toxic-planet-tm.jpg](http://listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/art-toxic-planet-tm.jpg).
Whatever Help you can give will be appreciated.
I'm not looking for Critiscism or snide remarks, so if you're thinking, "wow, thats lame." then keep it in your head and shut up. :cool:
