Yo
I'm Boomerang, im new to the site, please be nice, i've seen there's 1 or 2 who like to pick holes in things people say for no reason, its really annoying, your not as smart as you think. ^^

On a lighter note really really sorry (seriously) to get your hopes up :angry:!! Read until the end though it'll be worth it ;) Ok so i lied, GS3 hasn't actually been officially announced by Nintendo or Camelot ;), but im wondering if anyone has ever heard of Multimedia Fusion 2? If you haven't _{(is that the American spelling of havn't or have i been spelling that word wrong my whole life)} its a very powerful game making programme which can pretty much do anything as long as your not interested in FPS or general 3-axis 3D.
Clickteam website

For the last couple of months i've been getting to grips with all the features and blahblah and i think im ready to make a proper, decent length (im looking for around 6-7 hours game play, in the exact same style as GS1&2) fan based GS3! Graphics are no problem atall, and getting all the correct sprites isn't a problem. Environments will be exactly the same (that will take the longest, the environments are so well done and detailed), and as far as i can tell Alex is the only option for a playable character (i just started playing TLA again and ill be searching for loops left), although obviously there will be 4 different characters and elements. Mkay thanks for reading this far!! Unless you've been skimming the page and just caught this sentence outta the corner of your eye :P.

I made this forum for 2 different reasons:
1- So people will trust me and not automatically assume the .exe file is a massive virus designed to steal your college end of term papers.
2- Ideas!!! I've got hundreds of ideas, but if people start giving me some input im sure the game will be of a much higher quality. I'm looking at different versions, 1.1, 1.2 etc released probably 2 weeks apart from each other, or just 1 big version after about 2 months? You decide, im not fussed.

So, recap!!
1- I'm making GS3 (playable on PC only :unsure:)
2- Its totally unofficial, but if it was on the GBA/DS i don't think you would be able to tell its by some bored fan.
3- This forum was setup to raise awareness, and mainly ^{get some ideas}.
4- ALL ideas are welcome, (im looking at you RP fans) ill probably end up using all the good ones.
5- VERY sorry for the rant, i find it difficult to only type a few words (something i will have to sort out for cut scenes).
6- The file will be made on Multimedia Fusion 2, and will be in .exe format meaning all computers, macs and such will be able to open. (Pokemon games were all made using a very similar event based programme like this)
7- Unfortunately, the only 2 things that will be impossible to re-create are when you open the loading screen it shows you your party & Djinn count (i may be wrong but i cant find a way atm) and all the music will have to be in .midi format :blink::blink::blink: but im working on that.Thanks for reading, post and have fun!!I don't want to hear negative stuff! Whats the point!

Welcome, but wrong sub-forum thingie.

The first one who posts a link to or quotes Sunsaber's GS3 is going to lose his gender.

Hope it works, I'd love to play it when it's finished.

I was actually thinking of asking him if I could use his DS image as a starting screen, loosing the name the solar soothslayer though, that blows >.<

Looks like Max has been lying all these years...

But on a serious note, good luck to you. I don't think I can argue with someone who's doing something Camelot should have done ages ago.

'Please be quiet.'

[Ironsight]

Do you have anything in mind for a plot?

[Drizzy Drake]

See, if Sunsaber had made a post like this, people may have taken him seriously. This sounds like it may actually turn out well.

Like DS said, do you have anything so far for a plot?

[Boomerang]

Mhhhhrhmphh plot.. im not entirely sure but i have a lil outline! 4sure (don't care how many people hate the idea, i love it) having 2 different sides - sometimes your playing with Alex (on his own) and then the standard 4 party team of heroes blahblah (player decides which side wins), and as i said i just started to replay TLA so im not sure. I dont even remeber the ending or anything, but yeah new party members, some new ripped&edited new psyenergies, and a bangin new theme tune by myself and some music programme ill find and my piano, as similar to that chinese guy who does the music for GS as possible.

For plot ideas, thats why i set this forum up!! i can do the technical stuff i just cant think of a particularly solid storyline. Or how the hell Alex & new party get to this random new continent and what Alex wants to achieve, maybe its his new quest to get laid or something ^^ (that was a JOKE people before you all get keyboard-happy [banana infinity or infinate split or watever that rediculous name of yours is {yes i spelt rediculous wrong i know}]).


More importantly, does ne1 know anything about copyright issues?? My friend told me its very risky to keep the name Golden Sun and to use the soundtracks. Apparently sprites are not a big enough issue to start a lawsuit over, but these guys have other guys whos job it is to bust guys like me or something, im not too sure. So yeah any info on copyright laws/severity any such gimme a bell. Ive already began the opening sequence, start screen is DONE but saves dont work yet. And if anyone could tell me a good site to find the .wave GS sounds that would be awesome, GS just wouldent be GS without the wierd scribbling sounds while people talk =D

Oh yeah, and i have to change the name to Rising Sun :'( unless anyone has a better idea - say it soon, itll b too late by monday or somethin.)
screenshots tomorrow!!
until then, l8iaz.

[Split Infinity]

If you use anything copyrighted from the Golden Sun games, including but not limited to characters, music, logos and graphics, you might get a complaint from Camelot, but I don't know for sure how far they could take things.

And why do you keep saying that you set this forum up?

[kate]

He means this topic. And wow I'm impressed, how many people do you have helping you with that?

I would sooo play as alex. Anyways, be sure to keep us updated ;)

Plot is a toughie...but I like the idea of being centered around alex.

[Ironsight]

Well, lets go back to the ending of GS:TLA. Off the top of my head, I remember Alex is trapped underneath Mt. Aleph and the rest of the party went back to Vale (which was destroyed). The first thing you do should be to try and guid Alex out of underneath the mountain. And I wouln'd use Djini, since the player would have collected them all at the end of GS:TLA.

Ideas mainly, people who have played the game wwaay longer then me will surely have some good ideas and lil storyline continuations i never noticed =D

And thanks DS, ill get on that right away!!
Also found a way to make an installing programme!!? seems kinda pointless but its more professional so ima do it anyway :P

[Drizzy Drake]

As long as you don't make any money off of it, Camelot can't complain.

[Eugine]

Well, competition brings out the best in us. Maybe the competition will make Max work on GSW more x3!

Anyway man, good luck with your game. I'll be keeping an eye on you and your game regularly, so watch out ^_~

[Drizzy Drake]

If you dissapoint, we will be coming to you hosue with pitchforks, jsut because you got out hopes up.



No pressure though.

hahahaha bring it fool ;p

i said i was going to send out some screenshots today, but im going to the park to play football now instead, probably be 3 or 4 out by like 8-9 or something.

[Drizzy Drake]

SOunds good. You got a storyline worked out yet?

[Boomerang]

And also you people are missing the point of this topic - i need ideasss as well as incentive to continue!!!!

[Drizzy Drake]

OOHHHH. Hmm. Well, the incentive is that since you got our hopes up, you have to or we will kill you. :).

I'd say, make it a year after GS: TLA, everybody is doing good. Vale is rebuilt. And then all of a sudden, :P, Alex comes, and he's PIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEED. Idk, jsut off the top of my head, it sounds like it might work.

[Boomerang]

Ohhh yess, i found a fully animated, frame by frame collection of Alex.

[Split Infinity]

I'm assuming this game is in the very early stages of development?

loll yup m8, i have a fully animated Alex now movable with WASD but no levels to move him around in yet >.< as it happens im making the first cut-scene this second, title was done but i decided to make some changes. Changed the name from Golden Sun to Rising Sun just incase of copyright issues and for my own reasons. Also i have 2 (i think) fantastic ideas, but im not sharing just yet :P

I just realized constantly using MSN talk really does destroy your spelling ability!! Good job Firefox has a spell check inbuilt eh :)

My first idea is to make sure you dictate the dialogue to someone else.
