Feral Heart

Why did you guys delete it?  Simba himself has complained, but nobody's replied yet, so I'm asking here on the forum.  Does one of the mods have something against FH+?  Not that I don't have anything against it, but what about the users that were watching for updates?  Please, undelete it! 

On my iPod, it keeps saying I'm IP banned for no reason.  But on my computer, it doesn't.  But I have the same IP address on both!  What's going on?? 

I think I know why I may have been banned (I had mentioned that I am one of the buttswingin' furries, even though I said SPECIFICALLY that I'd never actually do it unless I had a reason to), but I made it clear that I was explaining why they do it to someone who had no clue.  And that post was deleted, reinforcing that belief.  But you'll also notice that I use my liking of animals mating to CATCH those rule-breakers.....

This has been bugging me for a while now.  Flight in FH isn't very realistic at all.  The current animation for flight would be fine for staying in one place or going more slowly, but it's used no matter WHAT the player is doing.  And that just seems so.....unrealistic, like the character is possessed or something.  

So I've come up with an idea.  I diagramed it, too, but I'm planning on using animations done on MMD for showing that once I find a winged wolf PMD.  

First off, flight should be at least a little faster than running.  Also, at normal speed, it would look less akward if the wing flaps weren't so.....slow and unrealistic.  At top speed, the character should LOOK like he or she is flying, head craned foreward, wings beating.....it's hard to explain without a video.  I'll make one soon.  

Second, I have a cool idea: diving.  The character would partially fold his or her (lets go with his) wings and get in a superman-ish position, diving down at a 45 degree angle, gliding just above the ground or water when he gets down there until you toggle the flight off.  And, just because it's awesome, if he hits a vertical wall (collision box or otherwise), there's a distinct "bonk" and he drops to the ground.  Man, I'd lol if I saw that happen to somebody.  

Third, the spacebar doesn't do anything when you're flying, right?  How 'bout making you dash upwards?  Like, the opposite of dive.  This doesn't even need much explaining, just a powerful beat of the character's wings and he dashes upwards.  

Fourth, it'd be REALLY cool if you could add in a foreward dash--about the same animation as upward, but forewards enstead with the same effect when you hit a wall as if you dive into a wall.  

Fifth, rise and fall need a bit more realisticness to them--while not moving in any direction rising and falling needs no extra animation.  However, when moving forewards, when rising, the player should tilt upwards, and downwards when falling.  Please remember that this is still mid-flight I'm talking about.  

Finally, a few tricks like doing a loop or twirling in midair would be great, but optional.  

What do you think?  

Video (hopefully) coming soon.  

I opened up FH today just to find that Watermill was more messed up than usual.  At first, I was just like, "Whatever, I'll go fix it."  When I went to fix it in map maker, it had this weird terrain that looked like somebody had taken The Wastes and chewed on it.  I went into my folders to figure out what was going on, but the terrain hightmap was normal in my folders.  What's going on?  I've gone through all my files, even my Impressive Title folder, and I can't find anything that could be messing it up--not even the hightmap picture that it suddenly had!  Help!
