Shadows, that I made…
Regrettably, I forgot to put the screenshots on my Flash-drive. So I'll update those tomorrow.Frankly, I've made no progress at all on my game; which is OK by me. I've got more important things to worry about at the moment. But I have been brushing up on my 3D rendering tricks.So far, here's what I have:> Cheap and fake radial blur (Which makes great shiny lightsources, and can do for quick/fake bloom).> Lightmap and shadowmap structures (Haven't implemented them yet).> Sphere mapping (To make metallic/shiny objects)> Antialiasing> Multi-texturing (I should've gotten started with this ages ago).Screenshots tomorrow. Saving the worldI started playing Chrono Trigger again, albeit the DS version. Still best time-travel RPG ever. Radiant Historia can go crawl into a ditch and die. (Yes, I have played it).The only problem with CT is that it's getting too easy for me. I haven't had a single Game Over screen (Highly unusual), and this isn't a New Game+ either.Ah well, I must be getting better at RPG's. Time to play a Low Level Game.Anyway, if any of you have not played Chrono Trigger…Mega takes his invisible hat off and holds a moment of silence.Mega - Fixer of Computers and Conveyors of HardwareGot a call yesterday asking if I could ferry a Mac 150km away, petrol and meals included besides pay. Pity I didn't have a car, nor the drivers license.The other day, I got called asking for help setting up an e-mail account.Not too long before that I was fixing some PC or the other.Seems I've found myself some work while I wait for something big to happen. :PAnyway… I need to write a long blog again, with lots of screenshots, and interesting topics. But I'm too tired at the moment. See you all again soon.Edit: Oh damn. I left my canned update blog on my other USB drive. Curse you Juriaanchi, you planned this. :P
time-travel RPG you say? sounds interesting, i've downloaded Chrono Trigger's ROM before but i never got around to playing it. (i kinda got sucked into Secret of Mana 3.. until my computer crashed and i lost my save file T_T)
glad to see you making a blog for the sake of it at least, this place has been kinda slow lately =)I've not played it either; but JRPG's aren't my bag.
Really I just don't like anything Japanese Pop-Culture; I just can't take it seriously.But from what I've seen, Chrono Trigger isn't as retarded as most JRPGs, so I might give it a try at some point.^You are missing out, seriously.
I'm right in Charlie Carlo's boat, word for word.
I will play that game eventually…
Chrono Trigger is a damn good RPG, if you haven't played it and you are remotely interested in RPGs, you must play it asap.
I don't understand why I've never played Chrono Trigger. Although I do have 7 other JRPGs to get through.
