So, as I have been busy after graduating high school I have been working on creating a Shell Server for BYOND. Now that I have finished up on that Shell Server a bit I am getting back to working with Legend of Another World.
What's been changed?
I optimized some of the NPCs and turfs to work with pixel movement effectively.
What is wanted to be changed?
Well, I want to change quite a few things but that's not entirely within my skills.
First, I want to add a nice login screen. Like how Teka's Angel Falls game comes with an intro that shows "BYOND Games" and then "Teka Co. Mafia" and after that, "Angel Falls" I am planning to make an intro that shows "BYOND Games" and then "Xirre Co. & Team" and after that, "Legend of Another World". I forgot who originally did this setup but I like the way it works and I have to give them credit, with the fading it is awesome. I have started making the "Legend of Another World" screen but it's just pink and plain for testing purposes.
I guess over time I can make it look a bit better myself but if anyone who is skilled with making nice images for things like this and can make "Xirre Co. & Team" as well look nice (They can design it however they like.) I would appreciate it and credit you for it.
I worked on "BYOND Games" and got it to look like this. :)
Secondly, I am working on making more quests to improve the story line. I'm going to make it more like Fable, Dishonored, and the rest of those kind of games. Where one choice leads to another possibility.

Sounds good. Keep it up!

Thanks! I just got it to fade from BYOND Games to the Login screen. I have to work through teamviewer since I'm at my uncles house lol. It's hard doing this.
|
No problem , I was afraid it was to boot legged for you , but then I looked at your images above and thought "Hey I cant possibly make it look worse than that pink load screen " Lmao
|
Xirre I resized it to 480x480 like you asked so just click on the same link and redownload .
@D-Cire I think he just got the byond emblem and added the thumbnails of the programs o.o |
Ok. Ty. I'll add it in the game tomorrow. I'm packing up my stuff and going home at the moment. So tomorrow when I wake up I'll add it to the game.

@D-Cire: I did PRNT SCRN to get the image from Angel Falls. And someone else used it as well. I think my game would be the 3rd game to use it. o.O If I'm correct. Just thought I should give recognition for BYOND as much as possible. :)

Sure. But it was just the way .png works. It excluded some colors. That's not how .png's work. |
If you have gimp you can use the pixelate filter to fix up that pixelation issue. It works by making existing pixels smaller or larger, in this case making them smaller would increase the "sharp" look of the image, though based on how large the original image was and if you scaled it, it may not yield much results.

I have gimp. But I can never understand how to use it. |

google "how do i do 'whatever' in gimp?" it's usually a 1-2 minute process to learn how to use some things.
It takes a bit of getting used to but once you do it's very helpful. |
