My RPG finally underway

[NovaProgramming]

Yeah I just started up again on my program. My computer died, like I said, and so I lost some essential files such as the sound for victory and the beginning midi file, but overall it is going pretty good. Yep, so now I am drawing out a mpa so I can program it. SEE YA LATER>!

I had to cut the last message short cause I had to go to class but essentially right now I have drawn out a start of a map for my game, and now I will start to program the different areas. I don't know how many areas there are but I am doing them in squares, 320x200 with a 10 pixel border around it... so that's what I'm working on. I also need to work on some more bad guy sprites, I need like 12 more or something. BTW... if YOU want to CONTRIBUTE some ENEMIES to my GAME then EMAIL me with a ZIPPED (very important) ZIPPED (it doesn't send thru the internet otherwise) pp256 .put file and I will include you in the credits. Thanks.

BAD NEWS

I have done it again :x

I have tried to make my RPG have too many things in it and now, when it is maybe 10% completed I am getting error messages from QB....... saying that it exceeds the capacity or something. Well, for now it is on hold... there is no demo or anything because the computer that I am making it on does not have internet acess... I do not have a QB website built for the same reason... and I am just too damn lazy to put it all together when it's only 10% done. It maybe even less than that... but I consider it 10% because the battle engine is complete, and the stats engine is complete... and there are some other engines that are done... but for now it is not going anywhere.

If YOU want to HELP me solve my space problems.... then go into the PROGRAMMING HELP section and then my topic is 'help 'slimming down' my program'

thanks to you all.

I solved my space problem (temporarily) I made instead of item1$ item2$ item3$ (which was stupid in the first place) I now have item$(10)

yeah, so it works better, and I kicked myself hard over the past weekend do do some good work on it, and so I finished the first boss. I am getting better at this! It only had a few glitches when I tested it! Besides the fact that the MIDI I chose was too short, everything worked fine.

There are a lot of people around here who, if they saw and played my game, would criticize it saying that it is weird (I don't use a tile system or anything like that, I work out of my own little chunk in space) But to them I say: THIS IS THE FIRST RPG THAT HAS EXCEEDED TWO TOWNS FOR ME!!!! AAHAHAHAHA. Yeah, so don't try and tell me all these things that I wouldn't understand anyways..

Well, that's right, the second town is done, and I finished 'cave a' and I got some special event tappings going on now and everything is lining up good. Now all there is to do is program different 'screens' and tackle obstacles that I have wrote in as they come... such as treasure chests. ARGH, when you work in your own little chunk in space it's hard to figure things out sometimes.

However, it is coming around nicely. I want to thank everybody who has been encouraging me over this period of time that I have been pestering the boards.........without you guys I would not be a better QB progger than my brother Yep, (he's 3 years older than me but does not have a keen intrest in QB)

THANKS!
