Harry Potter - GoF, The New Year

I'm making a Harry potter Game, it's based on the forth book Harry Potter And The Goblet of Fire (GoF), The Games Name is The New Year, you do not play as Harry, or Ron, not even Hermione, you play as a new 1st year named Tro Medlov.

Story:

Ok, The story is basically the Gof Story But, You can change some events in the story by what you do and how you do things.
It also differs from some of the stroy because you don't play as harry or ron. you take lessons, and have breakfeast e.t.c, But a main difference is that your character is ummm. well i can't exactly tell you that it'll ruin everything :P [SPOIL="If you really want to know, spell Tro Medlov's name backwards and then take a guess"][/SPOIL],
but your character has dreams, dreams that may not be visions but make your character feel fear and anger for Harry. Also you have the ability to become evil and betray people, or be good and keep close to your friends, more of the story unwraps itself as the game carries on. The as you can change events and see different things, you could see moody put Harrys name in the Goblet of Fire, e.t.c, this makes the game more intresting as certain event's make you reveal thing that Harry may not of.

Features:

- An ABS (still working on but i have the basic ideas done)
- An CMS (Still have to work on it a little just to do things like adding the spells in the spells section)
- Options to change the events occuring
- Ability to be able to be Good or Bad
- Ability to duel people walking around if you accept it
- Ability to learn new spells and even the Unforgivable curses !

Thanks for all the comments you guys :D, this is definitaly a game i will finish no matter what lol, i just need to get the main events done then i can add a demo.

spike6958 : i got my tilesets from rmxp (dot) net , as for the character sets, i made them myself, i'll be gald to post um later on in the production :P, just give credit if you use um.

Updates:
Well most of today i've been at school, and i only just got back from bluewater so the only updates i can add are all the floors i did yesterday.
I've finished all eight floors (including basement floors) i may have gotten where things are a bit wrong like the classrooms e.t.c, but the maps are finished and it took awhile to prepare them :P, in the demo, i'd like to know, by people telling me exactly where all the stuff goes like classes e.t.c :D

Working on:
I'm currently working on more mappin and events that are in the story.
I have to sprite hp bars and i have yet to complete a ABS, so all that will been done over the next few days

I'll get screenies of the maps soon, but for now i'll get back to work :D

if you search for harry potter fan websites, some of them have all the locations of the classrooms for each separate year :P

yeah true but dose the books/movies tell you ezactually where they are?

unless theres a map

well good luck:)

ye the books casually refer to 7th floor or 4th floor before talking about a class that is going to take place. So you would see something like "Harry and friends were discussing what they were gonna do next in History of Magic as they walked down the stairs that lead to the 4th floor."

Thanks for the idea dark dragon, and DD i think in the books it tells you were some classes are but i'm not sure if they telll you where everything is :D

I'll have to have a look, and i will post screenies (first i need to find our how to print a screen showing all the map without it being to small )

O and before i forget i added, a sign (like on pokemon games) at the top left of the screen, that tells you what floor your on and what lesson you're in :P

just print screen while in rpgmaker!

This game looks nice so far :3

Claire : Thanks for the comment :D

And heres the screenies :D, they may be a bit small :S

man cant wait for this to b completed!

I'm now working on the first lesson (which so happend to be defence against the dark arts :P) which means i'm working on the abs, so i may be busy for awhile but i practicaly know how to do it :P apart from like beams, not just little blast u know what i mean?

So once i have my ABS done i can do all the lessons and then ill release a demo, i'll need some beta testers :D, if anyone wants to do it ? just post here or pm me

More updates tomorrow hopefully

Edit: Anyone know how i can make my player and the enemy in my ABS stay still when they shoot a blast? Thanks in advanced

well you can make a switch ,when you shoot a balst the switch goes on ,and the monster stays still if that switch's on!

Not many updates today, i've sprited all the hero hp bar, its a wand (seems to fit in with it :D i wonder y :P) and i've started to make the hp systen for the ABS, but i still need a way to make the enemy stop when he casts (which what darkdoom says could work) but the hero's on may be different :D

And i've mapped up the Defence Agaisnt The Dark Arts class room.
Thanks for all the comments btw :D

this game looks amazing. great screen shots, and the CMS is cool too.
cant wait for the demo :D
