My first post i accidently deleted so im a little frustrated right now Happy
These are the materials i need and thx to james paige for the side-scrolling script (thx man!) for without it this wouldnt be possible.

- maptiles with a hell, earth, and heaven theme. and if you want to just send one theme only then please make it 1/3 of the max tiles per set please because the script uses a npc to wlk around so i cant use doors and have to work on only one map.

- some walkabout graphics of some devils, humans, and angels.

- and some one to help me make a script to make some text boxes appear and to make one to save the game with an npc. Any way is ok.

that should do it. And thx to all who help. You names will be on my title screen and/or credits (if i can figure out how to make some credits Oookay... )
And why im doing this is to speed up production. It might change it from taking 2 months to maybe only 2 or so weeks. And thx again to every one that helps in cluding you james paige for this awsome script!

There's no need to rush. Play around with your ideas first before trying to outsource all the work.

You think this is going to be done in two weeks? Even two months is probably pushing it.

Scripts have an uncanny knack of going wrong. So be wary.

sounds like you want everything done for you....
i mean, you want maptile graphics... walkabout graphics... scripts....

the only thing left for you to do is map and textbox planning, woohoo.... i wonder why you bother, if you're not gonna practice your graphics....

and yes the maps are hard especially because i have to fit the game on one map! because the script uses an npc and thats really annoying! But i forgot to put on the top that the script and walkabout is just a minor thing that is something that would be nice. I can do it i just thought id be nice to have it up a little faster. And the 2 weeks thing was a utter guese. I know it will take forever but i was just making an example. And its not like im gonna make it as long as ffh or something becasue i have only one map to work with. But minnek has agreed to help me with any scripts so ive got that stuff covered and thx again minnek! But the maptiles are a pain in the but that i could do ofcourse like i said, id be nice so i could finish it faster.
And if this works out and enough people like it i might try very hard to replicate a megaman x type game. Although im not saying its for sure Big grin ! Because that would be quite a feat to acomplish with my skills. And ive been practicing my graphics for only like a week and ive went from stick figures to ok looking Megaman look-alikes. Ive made one and i decided to call him Magmis. But back to the subject. Maps are hard and take a long time but i could do it all ofcourse if everyone wants me too. The next game im gonna make is gonna be all me! No one else will help unless they want to. I wont ask for help at all. But till then Happy

CloudX... As much as I disagree with this whole idea of needing someone to do most of your stuff for you. I volunteer my services to your game. So find a way to contact me one on one. Like through AIM or even MSN Messenger. Tell me what you want, and I will try and make it happen.

You don't need to make the game all on one map- you can pause the side scroller script, teleport to a different map, and start it up again. and even if you only use one map, you can still use 3 maptile sets on that map.

pfft, i still completely disagree with you wanting people do the work for you.
sure, map planning may be big, but it's not near as big as thinking things through or drawing the maptiles yourself.
besides, this isn't the first post you've made requesting for graphics.

Flamer, I guarantee you that map work takes much more work and thinking than drawing them(especially with side-scrollers). Considering he wants someone to do ALL of the graphics, then I'm going to side with you and say that he is lazy.

well they couldnt have done it all because ive already made some maptiles and the main character graphics. And this isnt ment to be a masterpiece, just from what i hope a little worth some ones time to play and maybe get a laugh or 2 from it Happy But iv almost finished my heaven graphics so dont worry about that anyone and im about to start on earth graphics. That and ill most likely only need one map for this. Its mainly action over story but im gonna try and make some npcs that try to knock you off platforms and stuff. And the other game im making with some others it just about to start. So this one will just be an extra time kinda game. But just as a teaser its gonna mix ff7 and ff8. I hope you guys like either of the games that will come out. And they will NOT be cancelled projects i promise! And the other post wasnt asking for graphics it was asking for some to help with graphics. i have everyone i need now Happy Wish us luck guys. I cant wait for the final fantasy game to get finished XD
