Sage Sunday #??: Shut Up I'm Watching Basketball Edition

>>25737589
So where are the maps?

>>25737705
Dumped them all last week, thread should still be in the archive. Let me know if it isn't.

>>25737811
How about designs?

>>25737854
I like the middle but why the ponytail?

So, uhh, you guys did jack all this week?

>>25737969
there's not as much meeting stuff to do so shit's slowed

>>25737969
Most people did jack.

Majora drew 88 variations of the ET grunt for submission.

There was some Dialogue shit, but yeah, mostly a slow week.

Finally got around to making a Horizontal Gate map for the Forest though. Should have been done a long time ago but, eh.

>a fair answer is Soon™.
Are still likely to release 2.0 before Summer like you said a couple weeks ago?

>>25738091
Maybe

>>25738091
Ignore any release dates anyone says. It'll be out when it's out.

>>25737965
idk it's a redraw and tweaking of Queak's designs. Just feels right. I'm not generally good at communicating the science of designs most of the time.

>>25738116
I do indeed still do that. My life has gotten a little less chaotic so I have time to actually work on stuff again. I can post things that the spriters have been working on if you're all interested. It's not a huge amount, but I'm pleased with the quality.

so what do you guys need help with

>>25737901
This.

>>25738860
Not being lazy NEETs?

>>25738860
Spriting, actually. Along with move animations.

If anyone is a decent spriter, we'd probably be happy to have them.

>>25738860
SPRITING. Can you sprite a solid mangrove tile for route 9? Then welcome aboard, faggot

>>25739360
I want the route 9 needs mangroves meme to end.

>>25739908
it'll end as soon as it gets its fucking mangrove tiles so we can fucking confirm it.

Been in the pipe so long; should just cull the route.

>>25739996
It doesn't need x tile to be confirmed. tiles =/= maps. Its in a map guidelines. If you don't vote a map in because of a tile, your vote shouldn't count

>>25740039
I could vote 'no' on a map because I don't like the color of the grass; who the fuck are you?

>>25740122
If you did then your a fucking retard and you should be banned from map chat.

>>25740177
my a fucking retard what

>>25738244
Wait, this game will have animated sprites?

>>25740306
might, it's an end objective but not a priority
seeing as an animated sprite can just work off a static one it's not like it's extra work to make the statics first

>>25740039
It has puddles and people want more marshland you silly nigger

>>25740342
Awesome

>>25740348
I'm out of the loop. That route isn't the actual swamp by the shaman gym leader, right?

>>25740590
There's at least 2 wetland area, probably 3::

There's a marsh (r11) below cycling road. R9 connects to it and r9 being wet is supposed to be a sort of transiton to that.

The route by the town the shaman gym leader is in is intended to be a jungle swamp.

There's also a "Fire swamp" concept, which is pretty much exactly what it sounds like, but where it is if it will exist at all is nebulous.

>>25740039
fuck off majora

>>25740617
>lying to randoms
>>25740590
r11 is a swamp, r9 connects to part of it
the route by the shaman leader isn't decided in the slightest
r11 will probably be the fire swamp based on the positioning

>>25741096
No, I think you are the one that's lying to randoms.

This is what was voted in, more then once, mind you.

>>25741187
>>25741096
Also, it is worth noting that the biomes aren't 100% locked in.

So while it's true that the start of 23 may not end up being a swamp, or that 11 could be a swamp and not a marsh, as of now, until decided otherwise, the foundational basis is that 23 is a swamp and 11 is a marsh.

>>25740039
>>25740177
The layout is totally fine, but we're talking about the finishing touches of the map including the overall visual design of it (which is the main problem of it. It's visually boring).
And yes, tiles are important for that.

It'll probably make it through though. As it is now, it's serviceable.

>>25737589
I've been looking at the Sage Pokedex recently and I must say I'm impressed. Keep up the good work! There's something yall should understand though. Pomparunt's entire line is God awful. Please overhaul these abominations immediately. They feel like some kind of lazy, poorly-designed filler pokemon drawn by a child. Whichever one of you faggots made these should kill himself.

>>25741716
Nah we're good.
Thanks though.

>>25741753
Just saiyan, it doesn't fit in with the rest of the pokemon. A bipedal hyeana is cancerous enough but the design is poor on top of that. At least change the design a bit.

>>25741793
Please actually read the OP for once.

>>25741793

>>25741096
Wasnt the whole point of the fire swamp that you could get fire types early?

Also whether biomes are locked or not, that middle section on r9 looks weird as hell with a bunch of puddles. Dont tell me you guys are just being lazy and trying to pass that off as some sort of precursor to wetlands? Like, not even some drainage ponds or events where that middle section floods?

>>25743693
If you expect the people that are left to not be lazy, you've got faulty expectations of the world. They chucked out the passionate and knowledgeable people a year ago with sabotage games and cyclical bickering.

Magnitogre seriously looks like something from Pokémon Quartz. Why is that okay?

>>25738003
>>25742218
The ground tiles look too busy visually, while also reminding me of gen 3's sprite work (which is a bad thing). I think these interiors would look a lot better if either the main path or the tiles on the sides had less detail.

is the drawing on the wall of the first gate supposed to look like a happy ghost?

I'll be here to draw some fanarts if you have requests

Pangolash is one of those Pokemon I'd like to see in action in the anime. I think it'd do the design better justice to see it rolling around and kicking ass

>>25744742
I think it's an improvement

>>25744742
I liked it much better with the brown triangles, now it just looks flat and too obviously made in RPG Maker in ten minutes. The triangles add flavour.

>>25744829
How does one make tiles in rpg maker?

>>25744315
wait, rpg maker? you're supposed to make these things in rpg maker?

>>25745116
You make the maps in RPG Maker but tiles can be made in anything. Photoshop, MSPaint, Paint.net, you name it.

>>25745165
oh, alright

>>25744742
Much better

>>25744640
>>25744742
You could go with darker grey triangles instead of brown ones so that it doesn't blend in with the brown path.

>>25744315
Shit, that's not bad... Needs polish, but not bad

>>25745536
Its pretty much unusable. We need a tree that fits in a 3x3 tile space, can be hexed without looking like rubbish (see the palm trees for what it looks like when they don't hex well) and the most obvious bit of all, looks good.

Sam? Because he was neither of those things, he never did anything and always stirred shit.

>>25744444
checked

>>25744127
>>25744345
He still looks bland. We've had both a novelist E4 and a Knight E4 so it's in your best interest to come up with a design that is dissimilar enough from both of them, even though the whole concept is just a combination of the two

>>25747752
Nah, we like him.
Sorry you don't though.

>>25747815
>we

Barely anybody on skype has chimed in on that design, come on now.

I'm not a fan of it either for the same reason as >>25747752 says: Kalos already had a cook and knight e4 memebers, the fact that we have a cook isn't changing.

It's best to make Arthur look more like a bard or something like Link then an actual knight

>>25747848
I don't know what you're on about, that design got nothing but positive reactions when Wibe posted it

>>25748025
yes, all 3 people, wow, so much approval.

>>25748423
Well considering that the current work pace of Sage and based on the release of their work in the past few Sage Sundays, I'd venture to say that by that maxim that Sage is going to have a lot of shit to fix considering they'll be releasing a completed game sometime in the 2020's.

>>25746018
would have been nice to know it needed to fit a specific space, I just took as a reference the size of the trees already in your tileset, and it wasn't even finished, I just wanted to get the basic shape down first before adding in the shadows and color in the outline

Why Sheer Force though?

>>25752783
Fits thematically, also Feraligatr with Sheer Force has niches in OU and is a powerful mon. Now give Feraligatr access to Fighting STAB.

>>25752831

Yeah but its Fighting moves don't benefit from it, that's why I was confused. I can see where you're coming from though.

>>25752874
I mean, No Guard Cross Chops works too

>>25752896

UPDATE YOUR WIKI REEEEE

>>25752914
Dont see why it couldn't learn it.

What are you thinking for Aguanaut?

>>25752927

Oh I thought you had insider info. It should learn it 2bh, it has a damn cross on its chest.

Sheer Force is good actually. Maybe Weak Armor, with its salt breaking off for more speed.

>>25752831
>make a pokemon that is literally just a feraligatr/thundurus fusion
>give it both of feraligatr's abilitiies just so there is no confusion

what the fuck is even the point

>>25752927
>Dont see why it couldn't learn it.

because aguanaut is an unskilled fighter (eg: scrafty or pangoro), not a martial artist

How is it expected to work with the three dragons? Will it be a case of being able to choose 1 of the 3 as a gift mon at some point in the game (with the others becoming available post-game)? Or will they all be catchable around the region?

I think it might be quite nice to give the player a choice of one of them mid-late game, potentially from the dragon E4 member. I think it adds depth to the E4 and gym leaders if you bump into them outside of gym/e4 battles, so it might be quite a nice touch

I haven't checked this game in months. How far is it from being completed? Are you guys making any progress?

>>25755308
Dunno yet, it's way down the line. We have other things to focus on atm.
