She is a he and lots of your posts are just troll posts, member's PM'd me.
You're just a stupid troll, don't play the "hurted".

The first part of my post was very clearly an overdramatic joke, for one. Xristox... She's a he? I knew it. What's with all the gender fakers around here? =D

I don't care.
Gender fakers? Like you? I forget you're a "it", sorry!

Oh. That was so absolutely clever, Shi. Thanks for actually putting effort into your insult and upgrading it to a Kindergarten level of slander. Excuse me, but my avatar doesn't display a female character. You do realize how confusing that is, right? Yeah.

It's just a avatar man and not a "photo" of yourself.
You still have to troll don't you?

True, however, it's still extremely confusing regardless. I mean, truly, who here originally thought Shi was a girl because of his Avatar? How about xristox?

I have a girl avatar because I like girls more than guys.

Now you just look ignorant for disregarding the point, and you know damned well what I meant in the first place.

Shi is making me look gay here...

Besides, kag, you have absolutely no reason to insult another member. Here's a tip and try drawing yourself. And if you take time to read Xris's posts , you'd realise that they contain a millionfold more substance than you, because what he can fit in a non-capitalised sentence is worth more than the page-long crap you type. I'm a bit surprised you aren't banned yet, but it'll take not long if you keep this rate up, I assure you.

I also would like to apologise to SP for sympathising with kag.



Just so this topic has something that prevents it from closing down:

Messing up the storyline. Eg: Making a sequel to the normal ending to the game with Booster alive, but you begin with v 0.8 without any introduction.

Ok, sorry for being a miserable idiot who always ruins the fun and/or kills the topic, but it's time to get on-topic! So here's what I think can ruin your mod:

1. A long and boring introduction (I'm not implying this to any mod that's around this site)
2. Bad spelling and even worse gramm[e]r.
3. Lack of story line, or the "OMG SUM DOOD KILD UR DAD SO U MSUT KIL DAT DOOD 2 AVENJ UR DAD LOLOL!" cliche.
4. Bright colours (someone mentioned this).
5. Too many life capsules.

That's all I suppose. Sorry for my bad english lol, it's not my main language.

P.S I wasn't implying this to any mods that are in here, I was just pointing out my opinion.

Thank you!


3 things:
1: My FiRsT PoSt! ~First post dance~
2: I'm just wondering if an theatrical style (ie. long cut-scenes, a lot of dialogue...) would make the game a little too... flashy-esqu (and therefore "bad").
3: I am currently working on a Mod, a sort-of-kinda prequel-type thing. I've re-done the opening so far (Kings; I figured where better to start - plus it gave me a chance to learn the TSC codes and junk), and would like an outside opinion of my work. (Just saying help would be nice~)

You're making a mod? Have you been thinking of releasing a demo of some sort? Cause, you know, more mods = more fun.

A demo is in order...
Maybe once I figure out where I want the story to go... o.o;

So far it's... *SPOILER*
Complete: An alternate opening screen (A ritual showing Misery creating* (and becoming cursed by) the Crown.) (Balrog just happens to be there... though his reaction to being cursed is a kinda "Huh? Wha was that?")

In progress: All new maps... I hope.

Plus I'm re-working the item descriptions (same function, different title) to better suit the time frame (that ambigous 10 years ago...)

* I took a creative liscense and assumed a Mimiga sacrifice... ;]

Why do you need TSC help when all tutorials are out there?

TSC is not coding, its scripting. :/

Its actually quite easy, just study the Event functions in Sue's and the TSC.txt.

I don't mean a large number of cut-scenes, but a few long ones that may run to say... a minute and thirty seconds? (A long-winded ritual~ ;])...

And, scripting or coding, it's all gibberish to me...
Though I have picked up a few things...

How to use events, changing one thing into another... Making lightining...
And, I mean, maybe I'm not as inert at scripting as I thought, but I'm no expert.
I assembled an intro with no help... Apart from that list of TSC commands.


If you'd like to see the intro:
http://www.thestarkeepers.com/Cave-Story/CSBoots1.0.zip

I feel it had a more relevent feel to where I want the story to go.

Yeah, just look up the script and search for it in TSC.TXT. Like <TRA and <PRI and so on...
