Hmmm
Dibs of Veemon *cough *cough

Does anyone here know some good, free, map making/cartography programs? Preferably online but I can deal with software. I need to create a map for Pokemon Survival Challenge but I don't want to hand draw it. What do you guys do when you need maps for your RP's?

Hexographer is a good application. I have made most of my maps with it. A bit of a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, a good map can be done in a few hours.

Ah... Haha. Shawn. You just keep using my texts for RPs, don't you? :P And you took the digimon/SAO crossover idea as well. It looks good though. I might join. I do love me some digimon and I haven't grown tired of this "stuck in VR-world à la SAO" yet. Not at all actually!

Also, if there are no canon maps for my RP, I make one in MS Paint. Nice, trusty program that is. At least the old versions, this new one antialiases things in a stupid way...

I actually didn't mean it this time. u___u

It was only for the sake of organization, but yeah, I made sure to credit you on that text on final version of the RP somewhere. :3

It's alright! You are amazing enough to be allowed to borrow anything, dear~

Really hope it'll get accepted soon! In case you've submitted it, of course.

An idea I've been brain storming, thought I'd see if anyone's interested.

It's well thought out but with War 3 going on right now I don't know how many people you could get interested in such a similar idea.

An RP idea that's been floating around in my mind for the longest of time is an RP taking place in the Viridian Forest that makes fun of slasher movies, but I don't think I'd be able to pull that off... What do you guys think?

Lucciola, that kinda sounds like War One. xd Releasing it now wouldn't benefit you either since most have joined the other one too. Bad timing bro >.<

Well, don't be all "there's one RP of a kind so there can't be another!" now. There usually are several journey RPs running and now and then something very alike Odyssey pops up. Not to mention academy RPs.

So as long as they aren't complete ripoffs or built on the exact same scenery and plot, careful about dismissing ideas by saying that :>

If it was just similar I wouldn't have, but this seems very similar to me. His idea is well written and interesting and all that but it isn't like two journey RPs which are the same genre but still quite different its basically the same RP with a different premise, no offence intended towards Lucciola. He did a good job I just don't think it is advisable to go ahead with that right now.

Ok, then I understand. I didn't read the whole backstory in his post nor for the existing RP in question, so I just wanted to point that out generally ^^

What do you guys think of a PMD roleplay, but focusing more on the ''team'' aspect than the ''dungeon'' aspect? It will have multiple factions, each very different. A list i thought up:
Pirates
Brutes
Mages
Thieves
Smart guys
Archers

WHOOHO! BIRTHDAY TODAY, SUCKAHS! //stands on top of the mountain

Hm, Limanya, that works on paper but how would those differ from normal PMD other than 'theme's? x3

I think you should make a Homestuck RP instead. 8D


@ Fenne-kun, happy birthday!

I actually developed a thorough PMD RP a few years back. All of the information was nice and orderly, but when it came to the actual playability, it flopped. Mostly because I had the participants be partners with one-another and that led to incredibly infrequent posts since no one was in-sync.

If you want to do a PMD RP focusing on "teams" then I regret to say that it will likely die out within a month or two (if you're lucky) since, try as we might, RPers are not always available to play.

It's still a lovely idea, but for it to properly progress, it would have to be: "Participant A is partnered with NPCs B & C" instead of "Participants A, B, and C are all on the same team". Of course, inter-team posting is possible, but each individual would have to be in control of their own Pokemon + its partner(s) for there to be any real progress.
