[Kanohi searcher]

Yeah, If you make copies I would buy one. Please Let me have one if you make any copies. PLEASE!!!!! Sorry... I didn't know that you could make your own games for PSX. (BTW is it for PlayStation or Playstation 2?)

[Eagle]

[Twisted Tahu]

First off,welcome back.Sorry about what happened to your cpu;But a new cpu,cool.Hate to hear what happened to your baldur's gate stuff. I remeber what happened when my dad deleted all my files ??? not fun.If you want, i'll answer most of the guestions since i know most of the answers.How do i know? I'm former member Mystic Kahoni Kaukau,my cpu messed up to and i had to make a new name.Since i know how time consuming baldur's gate is, i'll answer all the upcoming questions for you.

[Twisted Tahu]

Only if geist makes him pay for it,but free distrabution is legal.

Hey anyone out there have RPG-Maker for Playstation???  I just purchased it the other night and a PSX Mouse -- I figure I'm going to make a Bionicle game -- I'm sort of in need for ideas on plot or game system -- So if anyone out there has any tips or suggestions you can MESSAGE me or post here if you like -- also I'm probably going to get a DexDrive sometime sooo... if anyone else out there wants I could send them the finished product some year when I finish  :D    -- To date I have just worked up a front-view figure of Tahu, so i'm pretty happy about that-  

[Lewa11]

Lewi?!?!?!?!?! LEWA! LEWA YOU GET IT LEWA! *breathes heavily* Okay.. calm down. I can't beleive you called me Lewi, it's LEWA LEWA! AHAHAHAHAHA!

He looks cool. I can't wait! Are you going to actullay release this? I have a playstation and I would love to have a Bionicle game and all. (Because Of The So Called 'CANCELATION')

If you are going to make copies of this game, let me know.

That place is a mess I can't find any useful information and the guy who hosts it has this thng with calling Americans stupid sooo I doubt I'll use that engine to build any game -- I'd be greatful if you edit that link to the site out of your post there please  --  Now I know how good a staff we have working here at BZ also after looking at those forums lol [/quote]

just go to the left scroll bar thingy and click on rm2k, then click on setup files.
it's pretty straight forward from there...

--------------------

ZONUA!!!                      AHAHAHA!                     haha......                                ahem...


...sorry

[Haffrage]

Oh, considering the fast that I know nothing about PS, what should I ask for?  Is it a whole thing, or a PS1 and attachments?

[Geist Optimus]

Thanks forthe offer man but it's cool I can handle the CLUA Console and the .bif files just fine as that is what I'm using in editing the game it's self -- BG1 i've beat and BG2 i'm working on though I haven't even made it to Jon's death(I know my ending though)....  anyway if anyone is wanting to continue more Baldur'sGate talk please go to OffTopic and talk about it off message me or something

[Rama~Swarm]

Yeah, If you make copies I would buy one. Please Let me have one if you make any copies. PLEASE!!!!! Sorry... I didn't know that you could make your own games for PSX. (BTW is it for PlayStation or Playstation 2?)

isnt that illegal

[Geist Optimus]

How does he look?

[Geist Optimus]

RPG for PSX is good BUT, as in any RPG maker it's totally what your comfortable using - Not the best i've used but, darn not the worsest - Most reviews of it are pretty high (like 4/5) -- The overworld map is probably the worst thing about it ??? -- you should check out the website...    RPG Pavilion

Plus check out review sites like ign.com and others -- also you HAVE TO have memorycards to save on-- (Go with original Playstation brand!) Others have the chance to mess up easy-- Also get a PSX Mouse if your going to use other graphic that you draw rater then pure stock(though the stock is pretty nice stuff still) and  a DexDrive if needed (of course) to share with other online but, they'll need a copy of RPG I believe-- hmmm... oh ya a large screen TV is nice to help to see what all is going on

I give it a 4 out of 5 ...Very good flex ablilityon being able to create what you want but, a few things need some redoing to make this a very soild 5
"Ya get out of RPG Maker what you put into it"

[transform]

Hello.
Lewa and tahu are great.
You are doing a playstation game but will you do a pc version?

[Geist Optimus]

Well... you'd still have to change masks to what you feel will be best useful BUT, when all 6 heros are in your group you have more people to worry about with the questions do i need the power of shielding in the next battle or more speed etc--  Currently there is no plan to have a chose of starting character...  if i worked to do that it would take much longer and I feel the story would begin to suffer--

[Geist Optimus]

Quote from Mystic Kohani Kaukau, posted on Oct. 19 2001,16:32Quote:

Geist,good idea,better then the usual fire1 ice2,etc.... I was thinking,how about you make the masks helmets and make certian helmets give certain bonuses when you grow a level(kakama-speed,tahu-defence,etc....)if you don't like this idea,act like i never posted it,and if it irratates you enough(which i hope it doesn't,cause it's just an idea of mine,trying to help again)i'll just delete it.[/quote]

LOL your funny-like   --Ya tried to work a way to make more powers come from the mask when you gain levels but the builder wasn't set that way --

Don't worry about your ideas being "stupid" people the reason I have this thread here is so everyone can contribute help tips or interesting pieces


NOTE: just got my PSX mouse in the mail sooo I'm going to go try it out here in a sec

For hopefully the last time,geist is working on rpgmaker for the ps-x by ASCII,it is not on the pc or is related,or compatible with rpgm2k,or any pc rpgmaker.

Hope this helps you and helps geist to not to have to answer the same question over and over.

Hope i saved you from answering that question again geist.

a new toa would be way to hard but it would be cool im just hooked on the binicle GBA game if there was one for PS with new toa and rahi i wouldn't eat sleep see my friiends  or go to skool till i beat it

Quote from Rahi Master, posted on Nov. 16 2001,23:06

You said your'e still looking for new Rahi??? Anyway... I didn't bother to read the second page of this because I have to sleep soon, but anyway... Is there any way for us to get your game? Or would we need that RPGmaker...? Or would you send it to us in a copied disk??? O_O[/quote]

What you would need to play the game is way back on like the first page - but don't be going out and purchasing junk because this crazy berk says he has been working on a game for playstation - you smile but whats there to about??

Pretty good. I think it's a good idea to emphasize the mask and not worry as much about getting the proportions right. What's the little thing in the upper right corner?

[SamHideoLopez]

nice work! im planning to buy RPG maker too, but i wanted to know if it is any good? ?

[Geist Optimus]

Ya I know what EB is--> tis where I got the RPGMaker  I just bought the Manas set sooo I'm not really wantin to spend too much more here right away for a DexDrive on Playstation


Anyway-- I got a qustion for you all...
I finally figured out how to to do the mask powers and items but,  how should i label the masks that you collect??
---
Only 12 letters per item...

I could do them just as generic Hau, Kakama, etc but that would be boring I think-- (Having 6 masks in your inv. labeled the same)

or  I could use the color right before... RED Hau, Blue Miru, Black KAUKAU

or use abbreviated names like...  Ta-Hau, Ga-AKAKU, ONU-Pakari

or use the full name... Tahu HAU, PohatuKAKAMA

???  I'm thinking the abbreviated names would work best or maybe even the color on -- I know my cap. are different on even the choices because that also makes a difference--
Some of the other character Toa's will have a few masks already before you have them join you (So you don't grow tired of finding the minimum 36 masks)-- So give me a little feedback here -or- if you have a better idea just say so

[Kanohi searcher]

Can I down load a RPG Maker from some where else 'cause those places aren't any help.

[Toa of the Moon]

the weapons:
mautau:kau kau staff
nuju:ice pick
vakama:fire staff
nokoma:?
onewa:hammer
whenua:drill
tahu:fire sword
gali:hooks
lewa:axe
kopoka:ice sword
onua:claws
pohatu:shoes



im not sure on all,but its pretty accurate.correct me if im wrong.

[Solitude of Ice]

whoa just read this thing from start to finish.... you have an interesting thing going here Geist.  I'm not sure how compatable the playstation version of rm2k is with the PC version, but, I might be able to make a PC version everyone can download if you have instructions to your game.  I've been working with the rm2k for the PC for like 2 years now and I'm getting good at it.  I can actually handle the tedious process of map making and programing triggers.... i've got some new software that will enable me to integrate movies during the game but i'm going to have to learn flash, ha ha, or steal some bionicle movies!  If you're up to it I'll help make the PC version.  I was already kinda thinking about making a game myself.  :akaku:

[Geist Optimus]

Just to inform you all I haven't had time to work (maybe even think) on this project lately (college work, new computer, etc  etc)   -- You have noticed I haven't even been on BZ that much either

Know this -
-There will be NO new toa but, with the new "pod people" coming out I have developed a very interesting ending
-Sorry but that's just they way I want it
-I do have a few new Rahi and am still needing more-
-Also the idea of mini games has already been kicked around ...and I don't see how any RPG can get away without at least one but, I do need to think of some ideas for them
-One last thing is I am currently rehashing out my an old project for Baldur'sGate II : Shadow of Amn from scratch (after my old computer desided to erase my gig+ of work a month ago) this will take up some of my time...  Just as restarting the whole game has when ALL my saves were erased (killing of my fighter/necromancer character "Geist Optimus")

~I thank you all for your support and in 2 weeks college classes will end I will have more/some time to spend to this cause~

[KOPAKA THE GREAT]

hey those are really cool!!!!!!:biggrin:

[Kopaka62]

i just bought the rpg game for ps but i need help i would like to know how u made the toa i can't make anybody i had the chose someone





              merry christmas :santa:

[Geist Optimus]

The little thing there is my color chart so that I can keep a log of all the colors used because I only get 16 per character-- also it's a 3/4 bird's eye view like the FinalFantasy2(4)
Well anyway here is Lewa.. I got a few others worked up but, I can't show you all my work until I'm done

[The Lone One]

Hey Geist I know where to get DexDrive. You know what Electronics Boutique is? Well they have them for about $20-30. And if you make a copy of the Bionicle PSX game I'll gladly take it off your hands...

[Geist Optimus]

Playstation ASCII RPG-maker huh? hmmm start drawing some Rahi for me  :)  Just kidding that's probably the biggest and hardest part needed  -- Currently I've been taking a break from the RPG  - I had a MASS of ideas come to one night and had to write them down but, right now i'm work more on my collage work and stuff --  The biggest project right now though is those artfiles and finishing the normal characters - I am doing all the avatars for the Toa and such though  Read back though this thread there are a few items i have addressed that were needing done

OK-- yes it's trident and no it's not in the game other then when you physically see Nokoma

[Twisted Tahu]

Mega Tahu64, rpg maker is a game for the ps-x that allows you to make rpgs.N64 didn't really have that many rpgs so that may be why they didn't get it.Same for DC.

And Don't double post,espically if the second post is off topic.

yeah. i know. it's just that i don't have a playstation. too expensive.

[Bionifreak]

They're looking pretty good.  Keep it up

[Geist Optimus]

[The Lone One]

That be cool...instead of changing masks you have them in your inventory! And in this RPG can you pick who you start with?
