[CUSTOM EXPANSION] Kirby's Adventure

[Shade Guy]

That's a nice idea, but if I recall they probably won't be the right size for a weapon pickup.

[Korby]

They can actually be any size depending on how close you want to be to 8BDM.

However, portraits wouldn't look very good as weapon icons. It would be very odd.

Looking at the expansion, it seems you've got some odd setup there. You close to three times as many weapons as maps (and god knows how many skins). It looks like people are chipping away randomly at skins, an occasional weapon appearing, and no progress on maps. A few suggestions.

-Switch Rainbow Resort to DM map, and not CTF. CTF maps outside the main are relatively not played. (I have never seen them outside Savior's server).
-Judge (or post) pictures of the tilesets. Is there really only enough tiles for one map per world? Say you do two, now you've got 14 maps. Three, and you've got 21, although that's unrealistic UNLESS you denote a "small, medium, large" for each world. This way people who are not "veterans" at mapping can take shots at smaller map. Not every map has to be massive - that's a different pack entirely. Look at the main game and completed expansion to see what I mean. If you REALLY convince yourself to make smaller maps, you might make room for more. Hell, even "small, small, medium" or S/M/M might work, with a few Large maps as exceptions. Also, Mr. X has left, so don't expect to be getting a map from him. Really, maps the size of Sand Canyon or Snake Man should really be fine.

-Specify on your ideas a bit in the first post. xColdxFusionx posted an example of what you could do to define weapons. Since it's not mentioned, I assume you included HUDs as part of the finished weapon, but there seems to be disagreement over the weapon's outer appearance as well as HUD icons. Perhaps include a section for that in the main post as well?

...Actually, glancing at the last dozen pages or so. Actually, I believe the starter of this expansion was banned (violating the "no leaving" rule etc.). Ignoring everything I just said... This expansion is going to be tied in a knot faster than you can say "radaw woom" if someone doesn't take control. I suggest we nominate people and once a person gets 3 nominations, he is eligible for running. I nominate Korby, Gummy, and xColdxFusionx. There are really SO many unanswered questions that need a definitive answer (not a democratic one) that I'd like to see a head person.

[Ivory]

No, Magnet was never banned. While we normally do toss people out by making a huge dramatic post about leaving the community, if they made significant contributions to the community, then it's fine. They can come back.

[Korby]

I wouldn't want the job. I've already got &Bass anyway, and that's not really doin' too hot at the moment.

[Super Bondman 64]

uhhh...hi there...i'm just letting you know that i'm in the middle of making a nightmare star orb skin at the moment due to wanting one so badly so...yeah i guess that means I wanna help in a way

I think it looks awkward and detracts from the effect of the Star Orb, but Nightmare with firing rotations is done.  Hope you like it--I sure don't.

I think Nightmare Star Orb was already maybe maybe finished by Chaos Fantazy, though it's probably fine for you to go head with your own if you just want to make one outside the expansion, or if Chaos's never got actually finished and submitted somehow.

Also, Kapus has been keeping this rolling in MagnetMan's absence, so he would probably be the best one to take over, if anyone does...

[Kapus]

I have absolutely zero confidence in leading an expansion on my own.

Aura - I talked with both Kapus and Chaos before and they agreed that I take care of the Nightmare Orb and have already finished it, sorry.

Lament - Yeah, we need to stop submitting things "under the table" BTW, before anyone asks, we finished and have already submitted Paint Roller

[Magnet Dood]

Who in the world is Lament? Is it you?

I've seen him on the classes servers, but I never suspected it to be you.

Lament - Nah, a close friend of his. We're operating on only one computer.

Aura - Quick question on Digdogger Heavy Mole. How is he going to look as a front sprite?

Like how he looks in Kirby's Avalanche?

[Magnet Dood]

Ah, all right.

As for the sprite, if I'm looking the correct way (the eye is apparenty the front) it looks a lot more like a front right.

[DarkAura]

Aura - It was the only "front" sprite I could find, but at least I got the answer I was looking for. I'm not spriting it, sorry.

Anyway, heard the word "trophy" a page back:



I've edited some of them to look more like how they appear in the more current games, such as Sir Kibble's hands and Rocky's bandana. I'll un-edit them if I have to.
This uses the MSPaint pallate so actual colors are subject to change.
Just throwing this out there to help with the idea.

Lament - Did anyone reserve the spot for ripping all the sounds? If not, can we try that?

[Super Bondman 64]

Though we might want to stick with their KA appearances, those trophies all look very awesome!

As far as the sound effects, I'm not sure whether there's already somebody working on them, but I thought I should point out this video the Kirby Wiki links to with all the sounds.  I'm not sure whether we would need permission to use them or not, but it might be easier than getting them from the game itself...

[DarkAura]

Lament - I was planning on ripping the sounds from the game itself. Spent 2 days getting through it just to unlock the sound test   .

If no one's doing the sounds, I'l take care of them.

[Duora Super Gyro]

I say we use the trophies. They look awsome
