Rayman Pirate-Community

Alright. I'll definitely need help though since I'm starting my new job tomorrow.

Still two weeks of internship in a pharmaceutical company to go for me, it does really keep me busy too.

I know it's been a while, and I still don't have screenshots to exactly give out at the moment (busy busy busy), but I'm mostly leaving this for Hunchman and anyone else who would possibly want to translate the game over in the future.

ALL in-game text is now external. This will leave the door open for localization (a UK English version), German, French, or other. The only downside at the moment is that unicode characters aren't available, but it should all be good enough.

Or as Nickiroonie suggested, this could even leave the door open for goofing around too. Like a "Canadian" translation.

So anyway, as t3h1's mentioned way back, if you so choose, you can localize it into "Pheonixan" if you please.

*edit*

Stuff you've all seen before, but new HUD and such AGAIN. lawl

i try to load up your game but it doesnt want to load in :[

Are you running Windows Vista? If so, you'll have to use the GMConverter.

You haven't even bothered checking what it is, have you?

nope cuz im stupid

Plus this is also a Windows exclusive program at the moment.

Not sure a program used to run something under Vista will be developed for Linux one day though

Well, they are actually working on a GameMaker for Mac (as I said before).

This game still looks really nice, even nicer than it was before ( and so does the story! ) =D
And external text... great! It's also way easier to modify text that way
Anyway, I'm still waiting impatiently for this game's release. ^^

He's walking on water!

HE'S JESUS! @______@

Why is the water black ? Is it some kind of toxic water like in Rayman 2 ?

lol Maybe a little misleading with the black text box there, but that mountain/star/wave pattern happens to be part of the background tile (as it doesn't move). As in, you know, they had a black carved granite pattern on the wall. :\ I'll take a desert shot as soon as I can, but the water usually isn't a flat line in my game.

...there is toxic water at points though.

Ooh, delicious. Do you have aNY SHOTS OF THE WATER?

Hmm, yes. Maybe if you gave the mountain and twin-moon texture some more shading like carvings have, and gave it the same colour as the normal wall itself, then maybe it would blend into the wall better. It's just a thought however.

So like this instead?

That will come with my batch of desert, cave, and mountain shots. I'm trying to get Phoenixan's swimming stuff taken care off before I do that. XD Even though you don't get the power to swim yet at that point, but you know... I'm not entirely happy with how he moves in water at the moment... ._.

Yes, that's exactly how I imagened it.

btw, I took the picture myself aswell yesterday and messed around with the wall texture.

My idea was a bit flatter though, yours has more depth. And I like that.

Hey, I'm in the middle of setting up a sort of dev blog on Live Journal. I just want to get the style set up on it first... it'll just give out some weekly updates/discussions/links to other good game projects I come across.
