i have question 4 when u get back lolz ::

how the hell do u make 1 of these 0__o

"One of these" what?

BTW I'm back =D

A Dragon Generator thingyy LOLOLOL

Well, actually... My generator will be kinda more like images that I'll post and you'll choose the parts, and then I'll just connect them together in Paint, and post the completed image =D
I'll explain you, how to generate the dragons, when I'll post the 1st version of it
BTW heres a little bit of info:

Hey D_C! So nice to see you! By the way, what is that dragon in your avatar?

I don't know I found it as someone's avatar on the DragonCave forums ^,^ I love dragons with 6 wings, even though I consider them as Demons

Did you steal it??

I would consider them as gods... They are...awesome!

I think I did steal it, but he/she won't know about it, so I think it's ok ^,^
And besides, Katkerrykat and the others stole their Dragon avis, too.

Well the one in "my" avi sure looks like a god, but I have some pics of creatures with 6 wings- They look EVIL! (I was mad, when I drew those)

Sorry for the off topicness...

I don't want to be mean, but... I don't think it's ok... Look, someone may have done very hard work to do it, and using it without asking is bad thing...

Oh.... okay, I'll change it =) Man... I don't even know to who it belongs, to ask for a permision... ._.

Good! I don't use avatars if I'm not sure can I use 'em....

Yeah, you're doing the right thing. Thanks, Chimera! I learned my lesson ^,^ But, I think it's time to get off the Off-topic conversation. I don't want to be bad

Reveal Spoiler

First I'll post the "young Dragon Generator" (like Spyro in ANB & TEN) after that the "teenager Dragon Generator" (Like DotD Spyro), then the "old/adult Dragon Generator" (Like the guardians & Corrupted Cynder) and only then, I'll start upgrating them by adding more changeble parts and adding Shades to the sprites

If you make the images, I would be willing to make a program to put them together, however to do that they would need to be bitmaps (bmp files) and have solid color (one not used else where in the image though) backgrounds to be a transparent color.

Of course they will be bmp files, I don't make other ones, but... Can I add shades to them? Plus, I'll be gratefull, if you will do so, coz then it will be easier for everyone to make a dragon ^,^ Oh, and another thing, once you'll make one, will you be able to upgrate it after some time? Just I always have new ideas ^,^

If shades are part of the drawing, yes. One thing I think I might be able to do (I have not tried yet, so we shall see) that could be intereting is make it possible for the colors to be changed. I will tell more if I figure out how to make it work.

Yes I can upgrade it, and it will be easier as I will have already have written the important parts which can be reused for new things.

That's awesome! You should try that Colour thing, coz I want people to have complete feedom of choices in this ^,^ Too bad that I don't have much done, yet, because of my PC was broken But as soon as I'll have atleast something done, I'll PM you the pics Thanks again for helping me ^,^ I don't even know how to repay you.... Help with your game, maybe?

The game could use some (alot, the only art I currently have is that for the empty terrain) art. I like programming and I cannot stick with one project, but must switch between a few in order to not get too tired of any one project.

I had thought of making one before now, but I would not beable to do the images.

Actualy, I tought to help with the game, after I finish the Main things in the Generator ^,^

I WANT THE GENERATOR SOOOO MUCH! ::

yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Well, then I have some bad news for ya, it's going to be released not so soon

I WANT THE GENERATOR SOOOO MUCH! ::

It maybe awhile, but you can pass the time by starting work on the plans for the first level of the fan game.

While this is not nesicary to making the program, if anyone could get the help file for the DirectX SDK version 7 or lower and email it to me at urulokiurae@gmail.com, then it would make the process go faster. (note, I have found an online copy, but having it on my computer would be much more convient for me)

Or a good tutorial on working with graphics in Windows while using C++ would work just as well.

Edit: Nevermind.

When do u think this may be ready?

When do u think this may be ready?

Mmm... I could have it ready in 1 to 3 days, but it would only put seprate images together.

For more, like being able to save the composite image and recoloring the pieces used, who know? Those two things would be ready to use now (resulting in the first time frame) but the people who wrote the help files for Windows programming have no clue what they are talking about and their samples do not work.

oh okay. Thanks!

The program is as ready as it can be without the images to work with. I will make it availible as soon as I have the images to work with.

The things it will be able to do in the first version:
1 Load Bitmaps and place them to get here to create an image.
2 Let you display the dragon's name in a font form your compute in a color of your choice at a position you select.
3 Save the image.
4 Save the settings/load settings you have saved.

If you have an idea for something to add, PM it to me and I will see if it can be added without too much trouble.

Approximate work time to get to this point: 2 days.

I feel it's going to be big! Maybe I'll give you more ideas after I'll see the 1st version of the program The 1st version won't have too much sprites and only the Young Male dragons available to generate. Is that ok?

Okay. The reasons I need to wait for the images are: to find out how big to make the viewing window and to decide how best to setup the way of getting the images to be in the right place.

Don't worry. Give me a few more days, and I'll PM you the images

Sounds very cool.

Thanks, Icy (Can I call you like that?)

ooohhh!!!!!plz hurry!im soooo looking forward to thiisss!!!!!!!!!

How is it no one thought of this? The option to print the image.

Don't worry, it's almost ready I just didn't draw it for a week already and if it wasn't for you rushing me like this^, I would still be stuck on one place =D I'm sorry, I always have tons of ideas, but it seems I'm just too lazy to do anything I'll try to finish the 1st Version on these Weekends

Oh, and if you REALLY want this Generator to be ready as fast as posible, then here's my advice: Keep on rushing me by posting posts here!

Care to say how many parts you have finished at some point?

Go go go D_C!

I've finished the Body, plates (Underbelly), Front Legs, Tails, Tail Crests and Wings. All that is left is heads, The rest of the Crests, Back legs and a few bonus things

Quote: chimera

Go go go D_C!

Thank you for rushing me ^,^ *Goes to draw the Heads*

No problem! Hope it will be ready soon!

I hope so, too Though right no it's not even close to being completely done (I mean: the whole Generator), but what else can you expect from the 1st version the Choise of stuff will be pretty low... ._. But it will change, sooner or later ^,^

I'm excited about your generator! (Probably far better than Spyro's Lair, which, I liked the old version better, it had more options)
Let's hope a roughish good version will be done by Christmas!

hurrry,hurry,huurrryy,huuurrrryyyy,hhhuuuurrrryyy,hhhhuuurrryyy!!!!!!i am STILL!so looking forward to this!

Go go! Dark_Cynder, go go! Darrrk_Cyndeeerr! GO!

(what, am I a cheerleader or something?)

oh gaul!!

ARF ARF ARF!! These dobermans won't leave D_C alone before she finishes the generator! ARF!

Guys, your cheers are working! I have already finished 1/4 of the Heads!

Oh and one more thing: (Warning! If you do not want to spoil yourself the surprise, then don't open this Spoiler!)

*Cheers* Can't wait, D_C!!!

I know! ^,^ I can't wait, eather! I REALLY want to see the result of all of this!

Man, it is killing me!!!

If you read the Spoiler, ther it's comming! Oh and C_R, the 1st Version can only Generate Males, so..... You can't generated a Female, ya know....

Can't wait can't wait!
