Lost Eden development thread

[vyeh]

I had a spare half an hour today so I editted up one of Edge's quotes.

Can I see the revised quote?

I did meet somebody on IRC who may be interested in playing my mod a little bit, so we'll see how that goes.

Good.

Ah by "editted up", I referred to turning the raw sound clip and putting it ingame after splicing together the best parts and managing volumes. Speaking of which, I had a few hours where I had to wait around at Mum's work today... had nothing but my laptop, and no net, so I decided to go through and "edit up" more of the raw clips. So now all of Matriach Victoria's sounds are done too. I also just implemented the changes to fix up some minor grammar and spelling errors in the existing quotes that we spotted while saying them. E.g. "I promise a better a life".

I hope that everything is going well for you. It must be cooling down now!

Hey. Just saying that I'm still alive. Buried in assignments, a week to go from today. It's been pretty full on, can't say that I reacted as good as I could have, but doing what I can.

 

[vyeh]

I am glad to hear from you. As long as you are still thinking about LE, it is fine. Post in a week.

Thanks for the progress report.

Hey. Exam season now, assignments all over and handed in. So a bit more free time, although most of it so far has gone into catching up on everything that has been left behind. I expect to be able to do some LE work starting on Tuesday, probably starting with voice acting.

The Aployton guy finally responded and set up things to allow an upload whenever I like. Do you think that we should finish things off and then release or release what's done now and then update later?

I hope that you have been going well.

Hey. Exam season now,

When are exams over?

I expect to be able to do some LE work starting on Tuesday, probably starting with voice acting.

Great.

Release and update.

I hope that you have been going well.

Yes. Thank you for asking.

 

[Kilkakon]

When are exams over?

...

Release and update.

They are over in 5 days! I will upload LE onto 'Poly either tomorrow or over the weekend. I will finish editting the quotes already done by then. It's mainly a headspace thing, next week I will get onto thinking about productivity again.

Yes. Thank you for asking.

Great. I am starting to return to normal again. I also picked up Oblivion (the game, not the bulbasaur :lol) yesterday which has been an amusing distraction.

After the exams are over, do you think you can get the Gold version out before the New Year?

Great. I am starting to return to normal again. I also picked up Oblivion (the game, not the bulbasaur :lol) yesterday which has been an amusing distraction.

Glad to hear about the return to normalcy. I am not sure I want you distracted from LE.

 

[Kilkakon]

Well exams are over. Yay! I am exhausted. XD I've actually tried to mod today and really can't get the mental processes in gear haha. After a day or so, I'll be back to normal and can do some work. Personally I am doing well, although I got a cold over the weekend which hurt one of the exams a bit.

It is getting really hot, close to wearing as much as LE characters hot.

I intend to upload LE to 'poly either tonight or tomorrow morning. Just trying to manage morale really.

After the exams are over, do you think you can get the Gold version out before the New Year?

Yes. I would love to have this out of the ballpark by then. There isn't much to go really, a bit but nothing too scary. Just need to get back into gear! As I have said too many times... I would admit that I would like somebody out there to play the game a bit and give some feedback though, it is hard making a game knowing nobody is interested in playing it.

I hope that you are continuing to do well. We haven't had our usual long chats about life, the universe and everything for a while! Still running around carparks at 4 in the morning?

Sorry to hear that.

Good to have a goal. Maybe new posts at 'poly and WPC would help.

Still going to the gym for 6:30 am exercise classes. Got to go there now.

Hope that you can rug up good. Put the fire on!

[context: 'poly release]Good.

I'm going to start editting the last of the already-recorded quotes and get them ready for shipping now. I was wondering what sort of description I should have, the same as the one that's been released here?

Well as you know 'Poly didn't let me in until recently so it's worth posting there.

Still going to the gym for 6:30 am exercise classes. Got to go there now.

4, 6:30, all the same, haha. Well good that you are keeping consistent on it.

EDIT: I've posted the updated version on my website. I'll wait for your response and then do the uploading thang onto 'poly in the morning. I'm bushed! Haha

 

[vyeh]

Could you look at this thread?

How about adding a statement that you intend to release the final version at the beginning of the New Year and any feedback on the beta would be much appreciated?

So the already recorded quotes are updated.

It is a holiday (Thanksgiving) here.

 

[Kilkakon]

Do you want me to post Lost Eden there or just give my help/advice?

Sure that sounds good. I will upload it shortly.

So the already recorded quotes are updated.

Yep! I also changed two tech icons so they are different from standard SMAX.

Oh have a happy thanksgiving! Catching up with family?

Help/advice.

Nice.

Catching up with family?

No. I had brunch with a friend.

 

[Kilkakon]

I've uploaded the download onto Aployton. There have been no downloads yet, but it's up! (the current only download on the censored LE is me testing).

Help/advice.

Okay, I will check it out soon.

No. I had brunch with a friend.

Ah sure! I don't know what Thanksgiving really entails but sure.

I don't know what boxer day entails.

What are your plans for LE?

 

[Kilkakon]

Do you mean the day after Christmas?

Buster's Uncle has materialised and asked me to show him all the stuff that's been done so far. As you are to technical detail and balance, he seems to be to artwork and story. It's something that'll be interesting for sure.

I will probably get into artwork again soon. Because of all the craziness my skill has waned and my drawing mojo as well so after some inspiration I should be right.

Yes. I thought it was celebrated in Australia.

Having an artist look at the art can only help.

What is left?

 

[Kilkakon]

Post 1000! That's pretty epic. Thanks for being with me all this time Emperor Vyeh.

Traditionally, boxing day is when everybody takes their leftovers from Christmas and gives them to the poor. Of course in today's society people don't care about poor people anymore so it's more just a free holiday.

I plan to try and do something for both projects that I am working on each day. Just had two days of socialness, which was cool, so yeah two days of productivity ahead.
