zombie0hour Posted September 29, 2008 Author Share Posted September 29, 2008 Just wonding how many people are making zelda based games right now? I was thinking of making one but if the topic is overcrowed then forget it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrNova Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 one or two maybe.But with how much Fail has gone on with Zelda attempts so far, feel free to try.A zelda game would rock, but to make a Zelda game that all us fans would accept would take alot of work, and is why they all have failed so far.But give it a shot, I'd love to play a zelda mmo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
japez Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Me, Kreator's and Robin's. (Codenamed: LoZ ORPG)Slym's. (The Minish Door)DedeKillers (The Chronicles of Zelda)JanPK's (No name) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 No point making one unless you can program well. Eclipse needs a lot of modification before you can even begin to make it Zeldary. Hell, for Kreator and Japez's game, I'm making a custom engine.I'm setting aside 2 weeks of solid programming later in October to get the most basic features down (pixel by pixel, misc animations such as grass + pots being destroyed, all the different attack frames, the paperdolling, pre-rendered of course, the environmental damage, the different tools, weapons, and items. Arrows… hookshots... tons of shit...)So yeah. Make sure you're one of the most dedicated people here otherwise your game will fail. Horribly. I'm not holding much hope out for any of the planned games ('scept Kreator and Japez's) because of the simple fact that there are only a few people here talented enough to pull it off, and they're not workin on them ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePrax Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 @Japez:> JanPK's (No name)And my ;) and its an engine at the moment ;)And we work hard for a good Zelda-Game!greetz ThePrax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombie0hour Posted September 30, 2008 Author Share Posted September 30, 2008 well im going to go for it, anyone have any zelda tilesets i can use please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrNova Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 lol on the first page(free mmorpgmaker.com)Check the tiles link, lots of zelda thereAnd dont freak out about what Robin said, he is a long time coder, so naturally thinks coding is NECCESARY to everything.However you can pull of most of what you need via scripting.There will be some things lacking, but a fun playable zelda is possible without coding, however it will take a great deal more effort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusy Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I was doing one years ago and never suceded. As for me Zelda fan games = fail. No offence to anyone who's doing them including you Kreator (correct me if I'm wrong) but the first good Zelda mmo will be nintendo's one.The only thing you can do about my opinion is to make a good zelda game and prove me wrong.

Kusy Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Yeah - actualy the only hope I have in Zelda games is based on you.Back on topic - there are quite many Zelda games right now - they keep coming and noone compleats it. Don't do it beause when someone here hears about making a Zelda game he usualy doesn't even read that. At least that's what I do from some time… well maybee I read but I'm sceptical and annoyed.

zombie0hour Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 Why does this always turn into SPAM! IM SO SICK OF THIS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrNova Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Cleaned up a bit. quit hyping your own stuff guys.Anyways, I can help map and script for you Zombie, and if you havent yet, find you the tilesets.Also can do some minor source work atm, possibly more as I learn it better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Crusade Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I was wondering why this topic wasn't in my updated topics lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
japez Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 @DrNova:> And dont freak out about what Robin said, he is a long time coder, so naturally thinks coding is NECCESARY to everything.If you truly want to succeed, you have to. There will always be a better one which your will be inferior too. Its simple, they will get the players.@DrNova You made Kusy's posts make no sense, Clean it up properly if your gonna clean it up at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its simple, they will get the players.And with all the people trying to make fan games, it competitive. Just using ours as an example, but do you think yours will compete with a custom engine made for our game, custom remade LTTP tiles, and all the Zelda features you love?@Japez:> @DrNova You made Kusy's posts make no sense, Clean it up properly if your gonna clean it up at all.Don't forget zombie0hour's post.

japez Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Are you sure it wasn't my old game? Because ours evolved from that.[http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,21048.msg169467.html#msg169467](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,21048.msg169467.html#msg169467) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

japez Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Ahhhh, yeah i remember that one. I think its dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 @DrNova:> And dont freak out about what Robin said, he is a long time coder, so naturally thinks coding is NECCESARY to everything.I don't. A proper Zelda game does require heavy programming though. Unless you just want to have an Eclipse game that teleports you around for the 'hookshot', has Npcs for the grass (Including HP bars ofc :D) and shows some weird deformed link running around stepping on monsters instead of using his sword.Don't hold a grudge against me because I'm advocating programming. To make something like this you _need_ it. If you want to just disregard my position as developer of Eclipse, administrator of Mirage, 4-year successful game designer and my name as something anyone from any of the communities knows, then feel free. Undercutting everything I say just makes you look silly ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbus Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Yeah, any good eclipse game, but ESPECIALLY fan-based games, would almost require extreme source edits to pull it off successfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 If you don't want a huge project, I suggest not making a fan-game.Try something small first ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
