That's great news. Keep us updated.

Congratulations!
I have just realized that I have not made a Backup of my DC folder this month. Perhaps I should do it immediatly! [img]smile.gif[/img]

I just got a new computer, but that doesn't mean that I shouldn't make one as well. If only I did it every month. [img]smile.gif[/img] There's no time like the present to start, though.

Now, iam currently working on a graveyard level. Because i lost all the graphics i had done, is it possible to help me with creating the graveyards graphics?

Ill really appriciate any help [img]smile.gif[/img]

So, what are we talking about? Small pictures, icons, backgrounds, walls?

I have already thought about creating graves and tombstones for my project, but my walls are somewhat comic/manga style. If that's okay with you, I could post some walls during the next days.
Do you only use the default walls, ffan?


(And I have not forgotten that I wanted to send some walls to you, Manikus [img]smile.gif[/img] , however, at the moment I have a lot to do at work and DCing is only possible in the late evening for me... :( )

well, if u can, i would like to have some walls, please! AND! i am creating a forum about zordo, so, ill post the site adress as soon as i finish it! :D


EDIT:answer to dinonykos:no, i dont use only the default walls. i create some myself or download from other DC sites.Now, if u are able to post some graveyard walls, ill really apreciate ur help! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Here's KoZ's(Kingdoms of Zordo) forum!
------> http://zordo.forumup.gr/

By the way, I did not mean the default wall graphics, I meant which wall formats you use. I didn't make that clear...

I use the Dinonykos Wall Format :D , which is not included into the current config.txt file. So you would have to change that file to use the walls I have created.
But it is not that difficult. [img]smile.gif[/img] All is explained in Manikus' forum:
http://dungeoncraft.forumsplace.com/message57.html

If you could post one of your own walls or some images from you project, it would be easier (more easy? [img]smile.gif[/img] ) to create a wall that fits with the style of your Adventure. :D

the format i use is FRUA, the default [img]tongue.gif[/img]

if i messed this up, anyway, i use the defaults. If ur format is better for designing, i may use it. but i need some help on how to set up the config file cause i didnt understand it very well :(

so, any news about the walls? [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'm actually drawing a cross. [img]smile.gif[/img] It needs a little shading, otherwise it looks good already.
However, I would still like to see what your own self-drawn walls look like, so I could create e.g. a graveyard wall that does not look totally different concerning the drawing/painting style.


Concerning the wall formats:
I removed the other three alternative wall formats from my config file, what would be bad if you included walls from other wall creators... :(
However I think Manikus has included my wall format as 4th alternative wall format into his config.txt file, right, Manikus? Perhaps he could send it to you?

However, I see we could also need a help file about editing the config.txt file... :D

lol yes. Anyway, the walls i create look like the default ones. But if u cant create walls like these, its ok, i can use urs too! (with some editing hehehe...lolz)!

Let's see what I can do...

You can just use this config.txt (it's at the very bottom) in place of the current one.

There are two ways to change the config.txt to make this work. 1~ replace an existing wall format OR 2~ adding to existing walls.
For 1 = Make sure the format number is changed to the one that you are replacing.
e.g. A4_WALL_RECT = 2,2,66,213 // 4 is the format number and would be changed to 3 or 2 or whatever number it is replacing.
For 2 = add at the end of the wall section and make sure the format number is one higher than the last one present i.e. 4 if there are 3 alternative walls. You also must change this line ->
MAX_ALTERNATE_WALL_FORMATS = 4 // 4 is the number of alternative walls and would include the one you have just added.

Thank you, Manikus.

Hmm, every time I want to post pictures, I'm not sure how to. Okay, let's try...

Okay, it worked. So this is an Ankh you can put in front of Walls as an overlay. I remember that the clerics holy symbols in D&D look similar in a lot of games. I've also done a metal fence yesterday that might also be useful for a graveyard.

thank u Dinonykos, theyre AWESOME!

Thank you.
Together with Manikus' config.txt file they should work perfectly.
One problem might be that if you put the Ankh over one of your walls, it might not work properly because of the different formats. I'll post a wall the next days. [img]smile.gif[/img]
And perhaps a gate for the fence. :D

This is true. The overlay (or door) has to be the same format as the wall it is over for it to show up properly.

I will be busy the next couple of days, but early next week, I will try to make a Photoshop action that translates from the 'tall wall' format into Dinonykos' new 'extended tall wall' format.

nice.

bad news guys. very but very bad news. The guy i was waiting for to give me the cd with all my graphics, cant find it! Well, iam not gonna draw them again from scratch, cause this took me a lot of time(almost all this time i was working was on the graphics). Now, ill add some graphs from the ironwork site, and the other ones. Sorry guys :( :(
