@Kusy: > … ... ... facepalm. It was merely a suggestion.

You could also turn it into a mc texture pack. it'd probably look pretty good.

@Skull: > ah k. Grass is certainly a tough thing to tackle a new style for. If you're doing a serious project(seems to me you are) I would highly suggest you either try HD pixel art(a truly beautiful style if done right, but tough.) or vectors. If you're going for something dark, try HD pixel art like this: > (made by random guy on pixeljoint) > If you're going for something cute, try vectors, or do something bright and breeze like, though possibly with less contrast and more simplistic. > > I just realized how badly my grammar is failing right now. I think I'll stop posting until the morning xD I think we'll stick to what we've got. Fuu, I, and Eb have the style we like and agree on. If you don't like it go play something with HD graphics, because this won't be that game.

@Skull: > The water makes sense if you're alpha blending it, but the grass doesn't look good. If you want it to be dull, then make it darker and value, but use a more colorful tint than you're using. It's not done. I don't know if he said so or not, but basically when he couldn't get the second grass stuff right he scraped it for now. We'll come back to it. Or, we'll keep the single color grass tile, and do something else to spice it up.

@Skull: > Grass isn't that gray. If you're going for a stylistic match to the water, make it brighter. If you're going for realism, make the water whiter and the grass yellower and greener. Look at breeze grass, it's practically yellow and is very bright. The water will be alpha blended, its color is almost irrelevant. Later on down the line, you'll understand why the grass isn't neon green, and you'll be very happy it's not. ;) As for breeze grass, that stuff looks like barf. There's such a thing as Too bright.

@LegendWeaver: > Haha, it wasn't me. :P Yeah it wasn't legend. :D I just don't forget stupidity easily. It's a plague I tells ya. Speaking of you… whatever happened to that avi. ;)

@Kusy: > … what? I was directly referencing someone on the forum. They wouldn't even make a decent sample, but wanted to be paid a fair bit of money for the things Fuu's doing for free.

@Octohunter: > The person you have there looks like a Pokemon trainer xD Yes he was trying to do that. In the original image he had an actual pokemon sprite next to it for comparison.

@Aeri: > Don't use CS:DE yet, use Origins. Don't try to run before you can walk. Oh MY Gawd People are learning. ;) Good advice though.

inb4 everyone else wants his talents for their projects. >:)

For other artists on the forum… A free sample goes a long way. Paid work or not.

@RyokuHasu: > Why not screenshot the map, and shrink it down. there you have a mini map to load on a picture box. (cheap way) You'd have to do that for every map.

@Yukiyo: > There isn't one. But you can try drawing a miniature version of the map into another picturebox. This can be done, but It's a lot of work.

@Harris: > Would you be able to live with yourself? Wouldn't that imply that Stephan didn't kill us all during his Robot Rampage?

@shadowdeath: > It's amazing. > I really like it, and it's a great contribution. > Now where do you change the IP for the client? > lol Unless he remembered to change it, you have to do so in the source. ;)@Aramyth: > I'm not selling my edit at all. It's right here, available for download. All i ask is a compensation for the time and work i put in the changes, and most of all for the additional features in this edit. I don't see what's wrong with that. A few people i know here know that the source has been through a massive change. Asking for donations is not selling something. > > Aramyth. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/donation I once gave Robin 5 euros because for months I said I'd would buy his engine and could never get enough to do so. I gave him the money freely without expectation of a return or better favor. People are not donating money to you, they are buying your source code, which is in fact your engine.

You're not asking for donations, you're selling your edit. -__- Pretty words don't change what you're doing.

@Skull: > Yes. If you're somewhat savvy with VB6, then you can look into converting from DX7 to DX8. Best of luck if you do. > > Alternatively, you could by Crystal Shire Developers Edition, an engine made by Robin based off of EO. It has DX8 already into it, and it would probably be a lot easier to use as a base for a Dynamic lighting system. The fail part of this logic is that his developer's edition requires more knowledge of VB6 to even edit it. ;)

@The: > Is that what he's going to do? Did you know read the whole conversation?

@S.J.R.: > Do you think that robots like me are? > > Yours faithfully > Stephan. Do you think that killing or enslaving the human race would bring about your destruction? lol

@S.J.R.: > Aren't you, according to that definition, a threat to yourself then? > > Yours faithfully > Stephan. Aren't we all a threat to ourselves in one way or another?

Are Disasters, Robots, and other humans not a threat?

@S.J.R.: > Why would they be? > > Yours faithfully > Stephan. Do you mean to imply that survival instinct is no longer existent? lol

@S.J.R.: > Isn't that what humans assume they do? > > Yours faithfully > Stephan. Are humans not fearful creatures?

@S.J.R.: > Who says I want to kill you? > > Yours faithfully > Stephan. Don't all Robots plan to kill or enslave the human race?

@S.J.R.: > Do you want me to answer that question, or should I rather keep you in horrifying excitement? > > Yours faithfully > Stephan. Do you want to kill us because you are a robot and therefore can not sleep?
