Okami quest

[ELMIND]

Anyone? Come on, Link, Zelda, Samus, Megaman and Mario are way too 'old' to be main chars!

[Plissken]

What's wrong with "old" characters?

[ELMIND]

They're overused, Plissken... Still, I wouldn't see a problem on a quest with Star Fox or Star Wars characters...

[Plissken]

Oh...I thought you meant they're lame. An Okami quest would be...interesting. I don't see how it would be made that different from a Zelda 2D game though.

[ELMIND]

Lame? Between those I talked about, only Zelda herself is lame... Link is cool, Mario is a classic, Samus is amazing...

[Plissken]

The way you phrased it made it seem like you didn't like them or something. It really doesn't matter.

[ELMIND]

yeah.. What matters is that people CAN make quests based on Okami, Avatar, etc. but they don't give it a try...

[Plissken]

Well mainly because they aren't as popular as the ones previously mentioned. An Okami quest could be interesting but I wouldn't want to take up doing it because it would require a lot of custom tiles.

[ELMIND]

Not really... Go to the official Okami japanese site and you can get icons of the chars, then you'll have the NPCs easily... After that is only making the customs or editing from something existant, like Seiken Densetsu sprites.

[Plissken]

Well there would have be a lot of japanese style sprites. You could get away with some Zelda landscape tiles but I think it would require a lot more bright solid color tiles. To try to make it more look like Okami.

[ELMIND]

It would use a 16-bits pallete or modified 8 bits+

If you posted some screenshots from the website, it might get people's attention if you're not planning on doing it yourself
(I thought you were? :confused:)

[ELMIND]

Asking me to do so is easy, but try having a VERY slow connection on a HUGE site that takes FOREVER to load with a slow connection.

[Joe123]

I wasn't asking you to, I thought you'd said you were going to.

[ELMIND]

oh, I understand...

[Joe123]

I'll rip the graphics from that if you want, shouldn't be too hard (or at least, I'll give it a try).

[ELMIND]

Too bad I don't know how to work with ZC T_T

[Joe123]

Eh, I started ripping them but the palettes were a mess and then my file got corrupted. My msn stopped working for some reason.

[ELMIND]

What a lucky day, eh?!

[Joe123]

Yeah. Ah well, seeing as you weren't going to use them anyway, I won't bother starting again

[ELMIND]

Too bad... You'd be the first to come with Okami sprites, tiles, etc... Hm... Wait, I could use on RPG Maker if I get those sprites shaded!

[Joe123]

I was only ripping the graphics from that website, I wasn't planning on drawing any of my own.

[ELMIND]

But, starting from those sprites, we can get many things...

[Joe123]

Yes, but I'm not good at spriting, espcially people, and it's a lot of work

[ELMIND]

omfg... Then let's scrap the whole idea! ._.

[Joe123]

well, if you want, I'm willing to rip the graphics from that site

and you could get some other people to help

[ELMIND]

Liek who? I'm too new into ZQuest

[Joe123]

I dont know, ask in the develepors exchange on PureZC, and show them some screenshots of the graphics from that site

[ELMIND]

I doubt they'll give the topic some attention...
