Member Bio & Journals / Kiquaii's Journal/Diary
« on: May 24, 2014, 11:55:32 am »
As you have heard, Red announced that members may have only one Journal and one Bio.
So I have made up an idea to make a diary/journal here, and add more from time to time.

I will update every time something awesome happens. (Or at least try!)

52
If this offends anyone, tell me and I will ask a mod to remove it.
I didn't want to be mean, but if you find it bad just tell me.

I have been wanting to make one of these lately.
People have their own places for their own creatures in Bonfire Island, y'know.
Example: You wouldn't see a mate center in the cave, nor you would see a realistic roleplayer in a mate center area.

Alright, here it is.


-Yellow = Lion and hyena roleplaying. Conclusion = TheLionKing (TLK roleplayers)
- Red = Adoption centers. If you're a pup and you want a parent, go there and someone will adopt you.
- Pink = Mate  center. Do you need a mate? Yes? Go to the mate center and be mates with someone. A neon stranger, wow.
- Purple = Food/Creepypasta/Group chats.  Here people just talk and do lots of random sturf that I don't understand, but I still spend lots and lots and lots of my time roleplaying as a bottle of vodka.
- Blue = Realistic/Human/Good roleplayers. <3 Here is where you can always rp wih someone that is good at it.
- Green = Horses/Zebras/Foxes. Some are neon, some are realistic and some are semi-realistic roleplayers/characters. If your eyes start burning because of the non-realistic colour(s), I've warned you.

Alright then..I think that's about it.
Happy breathing!

I am a lion and I want to be free,
Do you see a lion when you look inside of me,
outside the window just to watch you as you sleep,
cause I am a lion born from things you cannot be.
How can I sleep at night there's a war inside my head,
I found a lion hidden right beneath my bed,
I cannot hide myself from the tears that you have shed,
cause I'm a lion, and you.Are.Dead.

Mapping Tutorials / Tricks with the masks
« on: May 14, 2014, 08:19:44 pm »
I'm gonna write this on my phone so if there is any stupid mistakes, you will know why.

First, get into your gimp or Photoshop.

Make your mask in only two colours.

For example, I'm (pretending) doing a red and blue one.
I want that desert texture. Not all sand, but not all pebbles.

 Draw over the red with a green/blue and lower the opacity down. You will get a green/blue+red texture.
If you open up the mask in map maker and load "pebbletex" and "seasand" it will give you a nice, mixed look!

You can do this with any other terrain, but some of them (Like snowtex + bluecrystal) will make it very bright.

I hope you found this useful, thanks for reading!

Mapping Tutorials / Map problem answers/tips for people making maps
« on: May 12, 2014, 03:49:31 pm »
If this topic isn't in the correct place on the forum, please tell me where I should put it.

This topic won't be me asking you for help, it will have basic and complex answers to the problems you may have experienced while making maps.

Firstly, lets take a look at making the height map. As you may have noticed, paint won't work. Photoshop and Gimp are the the things you need to look for.

Canvas sizes? Ah, here you go! 513 x 513 is the answer.

Greyscale mode should also be selected. RGB colour mode will make your game crash while typing it into the map maker.

Make sure you use simple brushes while making the height map.

Don't make it to detailed unless your computer won't lag while opening it in map maker.

To make it more natural, use SHARP edged brushes! There isn't a lot of  smooth hills in the mountains (in real life), is there?
That was just a tip that I stick to, but do what you want.

I think you should referance from the real world if you want it to be realistic. Instead of using only the default feralheart objects, why don't you download some new ones from other great and fantastic players?

Flat areas are quite boring on maps, it hardly ever happens in real life too. If you have a flat terrain somewhere, why don't you add some splodges of darker and lighter greys? It will add more realism into your map. It is all about the details!
Unless you want to have a simple and boring map...

If your game crashes, make sure your map:
-Is one layered, make sure you flatten all of the layers down while drawing out the height map.
- Has no alpha channel
- Is in greyscale
- Uses simple brushes
- Is 513 by 513 pixels!
- Make sure this is the name of the map: MapNameTerrain.png


Masks are quite simple to make. As a starter, why don't I explain to you what map masks are?
If you have a height map and want more than one terrain colour, why don't you add a mask to it?
Masks should be in the RGB (Red Green Blue) colour mode. Copy your heightmap and paste it into your RGB canvas.
Now, make a new layer and cover one  part of the terrain in the map you want  in red. Next, make a new layer and do the same with green. Finally, do the same with blue. Remove your heightmap from the bottom of the canvas and save it.
Make sure this is the name of the mask: MapNameMask.png

If you blend the colours together, the mask will have a smooth meeting point of the two. If you don't blend them together, it will have a cutt off point on the map terrain. (It won't be blended in nicerly, it will be a solid line inbetween the two terrain textures)

- Use any type of brush you want!
- Want help? Look at photos of terrain in  real life to get inspiration. For example, look at these links.

I hope I helped you at least a little bit, any other questions from you will be answered, or at least I will try to give you the correct ones. Thank you for reading!

Game Suggestions & Ideas / Ideas for the game (Not all are mine)
« on: May 11, 2014, 03:59:35 pm »
Strap yourselves to your seats with bubblegum, this will be a long one.
I have come up with a lot of ideas for the game in the past few days, so I thought that I would just let them flow slowly into the topic. This topic will be edited when I get MORE and MORE and MORE ideas. I have been playing on my old account from 2012 and I have found a lot of wierd/awesome things, but also I have been sighing and face-palming myself because of the same things too.


Inapropriate language in game

I have been playing this game for over 2 years now and I have seen many inapropriate words in the chat.
As an answer to this, I have come up with a few ideas. Because of the idiotic behaviour of people trying to be 'cool' by using swear words, I think the game should have a major update. To be very specific, the chat. 3/4 of the people speak using the English language, right? Swear words should be banned/blocked from the chat if a user types it in, and the user should be kicked for a while. Swearing in other popular languages like Russian, Polish, German, ect should be banned too. (In my opinion)

MODs in every public map

As you have seen in the idea above, there are already a lot of bad things in game. In my opionion, a mod should be active in every/most public map/maps. Just so there is less trouble, you know. I am aware that the mods have a busy time already in game and in real life. But, I often see about 4 mods in one place. (Flourite Plains, eh?) While a lot of rule breaking is happening all over the game, staff should preferably be everywhere. That is only my opionion though, and it doesn't really count as anything program  related.

Presets
Shouldn't presets have a specific skin for people that don't see it? For example, I have a preset.
Other people sadly can't see it. BUT they CAN see something else. Maybe a marking saying 'PRESET' or something? Just so people won't get confused. Ye' know what I mean.
*Be right back, I'm flipin' starving!*

*Back*
Offline playing mode?
Alright. I heard someone say this before, but I just thought I'd put the idea in here.
A lot of players have been mad because of their lack of internet while wanting to play the game. So, just like in MC (Minecraft) why don't we add a a 'play in offline mode' option? Players could play the game and explore on their own, without any other players with them. The public maps would become private to them, but they would still be active in the actual game mode. So, while all the other players chat and rp together in bonfire, someone without internet can go into the mode and see the island without any players on. Eh? If this was your idea, don't forget to reply on this topic!
(This would fit in good with all the other ideas into a major game update, if it was possible of course)


Adding gender options  into the game. It sometimes personaly annoys me that I can't choose a gender in the character creation map. (Podium map) I am often mistaken for a male + I need to write the gender in the bio. Can't we just add a gender option into the game? (Along with the chat part, that would be perfect to put into an update if possible)
No sexual content is mentioned in this idea, nothing is taken away or added into a character! When you click twice on a character it would say:
Username:
Character name:
Gender: TheGenderWouldGoHere
Group:
--------------
Links in chat/copy and paste
This makes a lot of players wonder "why can't we copy/paste a link from/into chat or our bio?"
I was actually playing with my friend yesterday, and he found a cool map. Guess what? It was a long and confusing name, but I had to keep looking at it to get it right. Can't we just have a copy/paste option in chat? (It would go perfectly with the other chat idea and the offline playing mode update. I mean, if there was one)

Species / Kakali guide
« on: May 09, 2014, 06:42:18 pm »
Hello there fellow ferals! I was sitting in class and made up this 'species'. Well, anyone can make one!
If you make a kakali pack, be SURE to put this into your group bio 'Species made by TheApplePie'.

What is a kalaki?
A kakali is a cross between a Russian mountain sheep and a mexican wolf.
It is a normal wolf with sheep horns. They behave like sheep, fight using their horns + live in the mountains.
Although they are a cross between sheep and wolves, these creatures hunt mountain sheep themselves.

Looks:
Like I said before, they are realistic wolves with Russian mountain sheep horns.
Fur colours:
White, black, all shades of grey & brown.
Eye colours:
Yellow, gold, dark green + brown.
Manes?:
Side + Flame ONLY!
(You must have items downloaded for these to work!)Items:
Male: Ram horns
Female: Xarph Horns
----------------------------------------
[/b]Behavior/Habbitat/Diet/Extra info[/b]
Kakalis are often seen on mountain/cliff sides and valleys. They live in packs of 5-20 members and hunt together.
They have a few simple and easy-to-follow ranks.
Alpha male:
Beta male:
Omegas:
There are no alpha/beta females. The males can mate/breed with any female. He can only breed with 2 in each breeding season though. (The breeding season is in winter and it lasts for 2 weeks!)
Males will use their horns to fight, just like mountain sheep do. The will walk back and stop, then they will run to each other and bang their horns together.
 Kakali females give birth to 1 pup every spring. The pup is an adult when he/she is 4 years old so they stay with their pack for a long time. Females can't leave their pups, so please don't say that your character has been left out by the pack, these animals don't do that! These wierd creatures live for only 10-13 years, so they will rarely change territories.
Kakalis can't see in the dark and they have a bad sence of hearing. They use a large range of yelps, howls and barks to get in contact with each other. They hunt using their sence of smell so the best time to hunt is a sunny day or clear night.
The kalaki species feast on small animals such as lemings, rats/mice, ferrets or even otters and sheep/goats. Yes, they eat them too!

If you want to create a kakali in game please follow these rules and be sure to make a realistic character. Neon coloured characters won't be counted as the species, but a failed attempt. I hope you found this interesting!
