Title: Mod ideas? Advice needed.
Post by: Chew-gun on October 01, 2010, 08:20:25 pm
For present time I have some very general questions, as I have very general view of the mod.
So:
1. Where can I get music for mod? Or in which program I can create it myself?
2. Will confronting aliens (not those little green/gray funky humanoids, more like aliens from "Ecco"+xenomorphs+a bit of black magic) in some form be ok?

A program to write .ogg files with is included in the cave story deluxe package. You'll easely find it via google.

More questions:
Is there a function in the game engine to check character's wall-holding state?
If I wanna add some screen effects, like black-and-white or sepia vision, would it require changes in the game engine?
Can animated pictures be used as a tiles?

As always, more questions:
How can I make items which can be held in hand(knife, for example)? My only idea is making a special bone for "normal" form (but it seems like I need separate bone for each item).

Hello, in fact this bone already exists. If you go into the animation editor you will find Naija holding a fish. All you have to do I think is changing the graphic and making this bone visible ;)

Hello and thanks for advice. It's actually nice to see that forums aren't dead and especially nice to see such a guy in my topic  ::)
So, what about other questions and beta-testing of "magic of aquaria" mod?

Our mod is on hold while Yogoda does some work on another game. We divided the mod in half and are working on finishing enough of it that it can be beta-tested; there is one boss basically that needs to be finished in part one of Magic. I will ask Yogoda if he wants to hook you up with our Dropbox so we can send you a link to download part one.

 ^-^ you should totally make rampant use of the deep tile-set and light form.
