Feral Heart

I really wanted to talk about this for most of the week. It seems to me that the realistic feel that some players aim for is far away from them in a case. You know, the wonderful lions in the real deal, ruling the savannah with all their strength, are very protective over their territory. They would chase off to even kill every known threat in their sight. Lions, especially when there are cubs around (usually in lion role-play groups on this game have cubs), will chase off, for example, a loner lion or hyena(s) for their cubs own safety. Lions are smart animals, they wouldn't like to risk chances of their own offspring getting killed. On this game, FeralHeart, when a lion warns a player playing an animal that may be a natural threat to the lion species about lets say territory, the other player starts having a fit. Real lions don't even ask if the could-be-threat could step off their territory, and real hyenas do not throw a tantrum. They just go right to the chasing.

I know map/territory claiming is against the rules in public maps, and I know it's disrespectful to kill someone out of the blue, but if a roleplay wants to be realistic, there should be some strict rules on territory and what species can or cannot be permitted. At least the (example) hyena should just do what a lion tells them to if they told them kindly to move farther away, no matter if it's a OOC or a roleplay character, not have a BF. Maybe the could-be-threat can fight back?

The same goes with asking someone if you can eat them. I know it's disrespectful to just attack someone and eat them without the player's word, but the so-be-prey could at least play along by ether letting the predator eat them or the prey could run away. Like a lion and a hyena, a wolf really doesn't ask a doe if he can eat her. It could be respectful to ask, but realistically, a wolf will just cut right into the chase.

Before you go against me, I am talking about calm players, like what brion the lion in the drawing above is acting like. I am not talking about the awkwardly colored lions or wolves who yell "UR IN MI TARATORAY KILS NO MIS!!11!11!!1". How that makes a difference is that one, the awkward player can't instantly kill another, because that isn't realistic ether, and two, the awkward lion is pretty much demanding the could-be-threat to leave. He is not giving the option to leave or fight back.

What are your thoughts about this?

ENDNOTE: Heck, this game is pretty unrealistic because of the chat box, but realistic prides/packs should be strict on what should be in their territory or not if they really want to be very realistic like they aim to be. And no, I am not saying that all group roleplayers need to be strict about their territory, that is not my point. I am generally talking about how unrealistic it is for a hyena to throw a fit because they're in a lion's territory and a member of the pride found out.

Hey, I have downloaded a interfere mod last week, and it seemed to merge with the previous one I had. Since this is getting annoying, is there any way to get the default interface back? Like, a download to get the default interface textures without redownloading the whole game?

I tried to work with transparency, but my first try didn't really work (the whole body didn't show). The part I want to make transparent is the body part, the back legs to be exact. Is there anyway to edit my code below so it can actually work?

If you need how I made the body, I can show you here. http://gyazo.com/99490c8a33cb94769ed115e2819f6166 I can give you the actual file if you need it.

Thanks! Please tell me if I need to be more specific!!

Ok, I need help on this.

So, I tried to make the texture for the wings of the present I am going to make with the UV Map. I colored it, I made the UV map invisible, I exported it to png, and tried to test it, but all I get is white.

Is there a step I forgot? Do I have to mess around with the coding for the present?

Thanks!

I need help converting a GIMP file to a JPG file, because I am making a file with that present. I tried changing the ending, but it said that it really couldn't transfer it to a jpg file.

Just to make sure, is there any way to convert it to the file that I need to make a present?
