It's nice... Dunno what to say more, I have to see more things ;)

 

[Dawson]

I suggest you use a better host because Lycos is poor and unreliable. Sounds like you've made great progress though, I'd love to test it out.

 

[ExtraOrdinary]

Thanks for your replies, dude!
Links were fixed!

Feel free now to test it!

Hmm... the demo ran smooth, although I couldn't move anywhere else besides the town. :D

Just some things...
1. The controls (with arrows) are a bit weird. If you are, say, moving up, and you hold the right key with moving up, then letting go of the up key, you can't move right. Instead, you'll have to press and hold one key at a time...
2. When you use the action key, the words just pop up, instead of doing the letter by letter effect.
3. You can stand on doors.

Otherwise, very neat. 7/10 :)

I really didn't like the movement system at all... its horrible... fix that and it'll be fine :)

 

[Superiority]

Umm..why is the site in chinese??

Please it's only version 0.4!!
These missing things you are talking about are still in make!
Remember that I offer extra programming not using RPG Makers!! :D
Maybe I was bit busy in programming the new tools for programming sphere, and adding new features to the map editor scripts! :classic:

What's horrible in it? You didn't explain enough!

The site isn't in Chinese! That has no relation to our topic!

I did the 0 to 10 one...

Otherwise, very neat. 7/10 :)

Also, I was just trying to tell you things to fix. ;)

I would like to post the steps, but I can't figure out how to download it. Your direct-link doesn't work because Lycos doesn't support direct-linking.

True, the site isn't in Chinese. It's in Arabic. I can still get a general idea where to go, by looking at the link targets, but that's it. In the programs section, it isn't listed. I'm at a loss.

 

[Jayje]

interesting

i just downloaded it. pretty cool. can't wait to see what else ya do. keep it up! :D

My computer shuts down every time I try and run the program. Weird.

My computer shuts down every time I try and run the program. Weird.

In fact, it's not shutting down man! It's just loading the data but in a black window. So, we may have thinked of Shut Down :D

Other questions are n00bish, so I won't reply as I said "If an error occured, you MUST send a PRIVATE MESSAGE to me"!!! :chinese:

 

[Illusion]

My comp really shuts down, i have to push the power button to start it up again..(It always shuts down when I'm trying to run a program it doesn't like..)

Can't you auto detect XP? After all its is VB.

 

[Dawson]

Okay, as requested by you:


->Your windows type (XP/ME). XP
->FPS you see while running the engine (i.e. the number you see up in the screen while you are running the engine). 64 FPS
->Your rating for the engine (0 to 10) I think it's too early in development to give a fair rating.
->Your personal opinion and suggestions for the engine: There didn't seem to be much there, just talking to a few NPC's. I was expecting to see some kind of early battle system since you listed it as one of the things you'd been working on.

->Your windows type (XP/ME). XP
->FPS you see while running the engine (i.e. the number you see up in the screen while you are running the engine). 60 FPS
->Your rating for the engine (0 to 10) I can't give it a rating since not much happens yet
->Your personal opinion and suggestions for the engine: It was just 2 maps of talking to NPCS there werea few buildings that you couldn't go in. You should work on it more before you release another version

I think it's great that your doing this. Vb, while considered an easy language to learn, is ALOT harder to work with than the rpg maker series. Anyone who criticizes ExtraOrdinary's work needs to ask themselves "Could I do this ?" The majority of you will answer "NO I can't, I'm too useless and lazy to learn how to." Constructive criticizm, Im sure is appreciated but not blunt remarks like:

I really didn't like the movement system at all... its horrible

Anyways on a lighter note, ExtraOrdinary keep up the good work, I'll be following closely, this looks like a project thats actually going to be finished :classic: Good luck !

I only now realized that there are still good people in this world!

As you said, Constructive criticizm! That's it!
