Niko Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 robin you should make an altra rare sythe that makes the grass grow, thats worth a few mill. Then people with shit load of money can buy it and some what "power level" by making grass grow and cutting it. Or whatever the point of doing that is… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted August 31, 2008 Author Share Posted August 31, 2008 Grass is used as fodder, so it would mess up the game mechanics xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted August 31, 2008 Author Share Posted August 31, 2008 All the farming tools now work.As you can see, I cut down all the grass with the scythe, chopped all the wood with an axe and hammered all the rocks with a.. hammer. Also hoed that ground up a bit ;DJohn's joined on as a secondary programmer and he's upgrading it to Dx8 (Because I hate converting to Dx8 xD) After I get it back I'll start work on the watering & seed planting.Also had a change of plans. Farms will still be instanced, but the time/season will not. What this means? I'll have to code some 'helper elves' to do the work for you when you're offline. For a price of course. This means the more time you spend on the game, the more profit you'll get from your crops. It'll also encourage people to share farms and work together ;DWith Dx8 of course, I can add a much nicer day/night fading, rather than just changing to a darker pre-rendered tileset. It also means we can use John's amazingly sexy particle effect weather systems. Oh, and it'll have dynamic sized maps, like Essence, so it'll be a much more aesthetically pleasing area tbh.

Drummerpete Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 You might wanna mess about with the shadow.If you look at the left fence, then the house or stone, they don't match. =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted August 31, 2008 Author Share Posted August 31, 2008 I know ;D Those use pre-rendered shadows atm. Once it runs in Dx8, I can use realtime ones.I'm fairly limited by the tileset done so far. Once Rory finishes up the fence set I can make it better.

Khachaturian Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 dudeits amazingi've seen a couple other people talk about making one :pbut never even STARTyou just competely owned themcan you randomly go to someones farm and steal their apples or grass or w/eand then shoot em up wtih a shotgun?oh man highway robbery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted September 1, 2008 Author Share Posted September 1, 2008 Rofl. No guns, of course.As for stealing, the farms are linked to the players and instanced. You can visit each other's farms, but you can only do things to it if you set a special link, which allows two or more people to work on one farm.

Robin Posted September 2, 2008 Author Share Posted September 2, 2008 The conversion to Dx8 has been completed. I just need to finish programming in the GUI components (Actually doing it a decent way this time, and storing the buttons in recs) then I can begin work on the time/day/night/season cycles.
