Praise / It was my birthday yesterday.

« on: January 03, 2015, 12:17:38 pm »

And it was amazing...

I just wanted to get this off my chest but I'm now officially an adult in my country, which means I can now vote, drink and do other adult related stuff which is cool.

Introduction / I geuss I'm back?

« on: December 18, 2014, 09:24:53 am »

So I made a post just under 2 months ago saying I might be leaving this game for a while (if not forever) but it seems life just wasn't working the way I'd hoped it to for me and now I have alot of free time on my hands so why not pick up this game again? And I'd heard about a certain *someone* who I'd been following had been... well let's just say been put on 'hiatus' for a few years which wanted me to come back again.

I'm still not online as much as I was before but I missed this game so very much while I was gone since it took up so much of my life and free time when I was in school. I almost felt lost without it. But, here I am back again for the future. :3

I'll probably just fade out next time. Most of the friends I'd made way back aren't on anymore or I don't talk to so I don't think anyone will notice. Its a shame I missed my 3rd anniversary of FH (November 05, 2011 (WOW ITS BEEN THAT LONG ALREADY)) I had something I'd been planning for a while that I didn't get a chance to do but oh well, next year.

Leaving / Leaving. Maybe forever, maybe not.

So its been almost 4 years since I first joined FH. Back when I was younger, stupid tween doing stupid things with friends after school. I remember first discovering this game off of one of my friends who sadly stopped playing after he and another one of his friends was banned for going around and humping each other in Fluorite. Good times.

Feral Heart was my... escape from reality I suppose. It was a way for me to meet other people from all over the globe and make friends from countries I haven't even heard of before, most of them I'm still friends with to this day. I have screenshots from way back when I started and though 2 laptops and a desktop I've made sure that my precious memories of this game are saved before everything else. Even though I know I'll probably never look at a majority of them I still often flick though the oldest ones dating back to my first roleplay I ever took part in. Back then, my spelling and well... manners were less than amazing and I wonder how people even put up with me but I'm grateful that they did since I basically owe my last 3 years to them. I still have that character lying on my account "Jack" is what I called him, well that's his name now I've forgotten his original name but it was something stupid anyway.

I've seen the community shape and morph as it grew, watching all the changes minor or not. From multi species RP being a thing, felines being the dominant species most people would play, christmas and halloween, KovuLKD leaving, general chart being removed, FHROD and even the latest FH Summer party I feel like Feral Heart has merged into my life or well, it was.

I recently dropped out of my 12th year of school and took a course at my local university for a Certificate III in IT and I've found a job that's consuming most of my time and social life leaving me exhausted at the end of the day not really in the mood to even go on the game anymore. I've taken to the forums to try and still be apart of the game in a way but even now its hard for me keep up with most of what's going on in the game.

So, after much debate and arguing with myself that I've decided to abandon the game and community entirely. Maybe in the far future if the game is still around I might come back just to see how things are but for now I'm logging off for good.

Goodbye.

Work In Progress Maps & Map Discussion / Project: Moonbane a long term project to port all Impressive Title maps to FH.

« on: September 22, 2014, 06:59:35 pm »

Welcome to Project Moonbane!
http://moonbane.freeforums.net/

Download link for converted maps:https://mega.co.nz/#!VUNGib4a!1bk9tYWyEE3czlIirEpE1oexEKsvl99MQDCHiTEJhPw
(Last updated 23.09.2014)

So not so recently, I picked up the Impressive Title source code, made my own server and derped around for a while and it got me thinking about porting all the maps from KITO/IT to Feral Heart as a casual project over the next month or so. I've already started on it but its taking upwards of 3 hours to move a map over and something on a scale like this is probably going to take an eternity to do myself.

I looked around on the forum and I'm surprised no one has attempted this yet. And for anyone who didn't get a chance to explore IT in its past glory this would be an opportunity for them to experience it now. Not to mention new public maps for people to use and RP on. Don't get me wrong but after almost 3 years of playing FH I am kind of bored of Fluorite Plains.

But, if you're looking to help me out you need to be able to do a few things.
I can help explain it to you but you need to be willing to work on this with me.

Convert the old height maps from grayscale to RGB since FH allows more than than 2 textures on a map at any time meaning you'd need a decent image editor like Gimp or Photoshop.
Be able to read and understand the original .cfg, .world and .material files from the maps.
Convert the original models, weather, emitters and other things to a format that is compatible with FH.

Videos / I made yet another kinetic typography thing. Now with 62.5% more video.

I'm just experimenting with different 3D tracking styles. Although, it takes about 30 minutes to an hour for every 10 seconds of video even on my PC which by most standards is decently powerful.

Its a shame that After Effects doesn't support AMD GPU acceleration. (CURSE YOU NVIDIA WITH YOUR DAMN CUDA. >:C)

It didn't take me long to do and this is really more of just a concept for something I might do with someone in the near(ish) future. I actually wasn't planning on making this public but *someone* said I should.

Game Help / Making shadows work in FH?

« on: March 19, 2014, 06:46:47 am »

So out of boredom, I decided to look at the settings files of the game to see if I could get shadows working in the game.
I found inside of "settings.cfg" in the games a setting under the video section that looks like this.

[Video]
Shadows=false
ShadowDetail=0

Now, I'm thinking KovuLKD disabled this for lower end computers or for stability reasons but I wanted to know if there was still a way to active this in game. So I fired up Cheat Engine and searched for any stings relating to "Shadows" in the game and I found this.

Now, unfortunately I can't do any more with this thanks to Rule 8.

Rule 8 - Altering Game Files
"Do NOT alter any of the decrypted files or codes for the game that might affect the maps and/or gameplay. Giving you an advantage or not, the files should remain intact unless you are given a permission to change them. If you are caught doing this you will most likely face a longer ban."

But what I can see is that the game is loading the files and has settings for them to be enabled but have either been greened out with # in the source or there's something telling the game not to render shadows.

Thought you people might think that's interesting.

Other Mods/Creations / Feral Heart Improved Music Pack!

« on: December 26, 2013, 07:25:14 am »

If you're like me and you hate low quality music you'll know that Feral Heart's soundtrack quality is less than spectacular. So I've taken it upon myself to do some research and find the highest quality mp3 (320kbs) versions of the music used in the game.

Place contents of .zip into \FeralHeart\media\music

Leaving / Goodbye.

« on: October 13, 2013, 11:08:22 am »

I'm leaving, maybe forever, maybe not. I've been playing Impressive Title/Feral Heart for almost 5 years now and I've just lost all motivation to play anymore, there's nothing to keep me involved. I remember when role plays lasted months on end but now the most I've seen one go for is less than 2 weeks.

I should stop before I go on I long rambling rant. Goodbye, I hope to see you again one day.
