Well, I'll be.... I see what I wanted to see... Not bad!

....

But what I'll find in there... I dunno, but let's see for myself, eh?

You should be able to enter now

Map preparations that I require

Some quick setups for the house

Now the stone master in Xenor happens to be Wendy.... Eric and Rebecca's mother... However before I can code her as a Stone Master I will have to deal with the chain between the outside of Xenor and the inside of the house

One of the next steps to be taken, tadaa... Is the stone master...

That will do!

Let's see now!

More pixels needed I see

Let's see

I've added a safety pre-caution to the achievement system meaning that if two achievements close to each other or even at the same time (which will likely happen with this new approach, so this was needed)

Damn.... That sounds cool... Reminds me... I think I much rewatch those movies again... It's been awhile

YES! YES! YES!

Let's see if that's true!

I think I got it.

And let's see, what'll happen!

I've at least made sure the maxima will never be exceeded

Okay, I fixed one error in the mathematical formula, but still I'm not entirely happy

And see what is gonna happen

Let's try this

????

I ask for THREE values, and what I get is an error because a FOURTH unasked value is missing.... That's C formating on a level beyond me

Let's see if these debug lines give me an answer

What happens when transferring money is NOT what I want to see

Linkup callbacks

Transfer of money should be possible now

General issues

Time for a little test!

Money in the bank shown

Linked them all to Game Jolt

Yeah, all these achievements were named after bands, and all of them are for defeating the guardian of the same color in the lair of the dragon with the same color

Black Sabbath

Whitesnake

The Green Children

Red hot chilli peppers

Again!

Plus code typo

Case error

And time for a little test!

Auto achievement detection in bank too (yeah I had to do this, as the cash achievements do not apply for money in the bank, only for the cash, and it would be nice if achievements were given on the spot)

Hover detection

NO! Not the red button!

And let's see what happens next!

That's been fixed

Elementary my dear Watson... Wrong operator

Why?

The ammount of shilders in cash is not visible

No crashes, but....

Take VI

Bad string definition

Take V

Both fixed now

AAAAH! There were TWO case errors of the same kind

WTF? Fix ignored?

take IV

Case error in function call

Take III

Name error

Take II

Case error in variable declaration

And with that all my entries of last year, have gone from the front page.... Jan 2nd.... That's pretty quick, I'd say.... Am I really that much of a worcaholic?

Let's go!

Let's first put this linking to the test

But I may be getting ahead of myself

A group created to make the bank transfers

You won't be able to access it anyway once the release versions of the game come

Linked the debug console to the bank

And this should glue it all together

Link to SASKIA

Link to bank in SASKIA script

I've added a "GoToBank" function to the field header script.... I used that script as it was really no use to make a complete new file for just one function

I've set up a basis for the bank

#macro __bank

updated

Updated

Oversoul

Difficulty settings

Portraits in personal action page fixed

Taken a shower.... Hey, I too need to remain clean and fresh, mind you!

Again!

Error in link-out

Right, let's see!

Link to the bank established

Let's try!

And it should have linked automatically

Put on the map

Retagged Goorge for quick auto-access

Well Mrianda does what I wanted her to do... Good

Miranda

Miranda

And she should have autolinked to the map

Daisy

Remarked an NPC's comment for quicker access

Some extra config was required though, it seems

I've set the backup running.... Always a good thing to have running anyway!

All works! Good!

Let's test!

Link code to NPC

Link stuff to stores

Weapon seller (I guess the shopkeeper did both stores in the orinal game.... I don't remember, sorry)

Weapon Store Stock

Item Shop Stock

I've set the stock for the item store... For now, as a few more items may be added later

But before I can do anything I must set their stock first

Weapons and item shopkeeps have been placed in the store

Well, it works, and that's what matters.... right?

Oh, man!

And let's see what happens now

Moved everything to SASKIA

I think I got it!

It calls back to .... itself????

(I really wonder what causes this to happen... Like I said, NOTHING can cause this to happen, but when things are this odd, you never know).

And then ANother test run

I've set the chunk to tell me more!

It works in Doubline, but not in Xenor..... What kind of idiocy is this?

So let's go to Doubline and see what happens....

I need to figure out more about this, and to confirm this as a lie

the game keeps persisting in this

I'll retry that.... The only possible explanation I currently have is a file corruption, but other than that... This error is not possible in any single way.... How am I so sure... Because the entire game could never work if it was... that's why!

???? A function that never had any issues is suddenly a "nil" value?????

Let's see!

I've scripted her out, but what will happen

Seems to be in order

Scenario check up for the little girl

Scenario from the original game (XENOR)

I placed her on her good old spot on the map.... Roughly same position as in the original game

Sprite Little Girl (Human)

IT WORKS :)

And enjoy a nice cabview ride from a tourist train in Colorado.... YAAAY!

So NOW I can test!

at the read

Taken care off

Ah, some lost trash was not completely out of the way, blocking my PowerShell prompt

Let's try!

Entering and leaving the store should be possible due to it, though

Dirty code, I tell ya.... Straight from the dung heap contaminated with nuclear waste.... That dirty, but what works that works

And now I need a break.... I'll be back soon!

Rebuilding -- Delayed post (errors on first posting attempt)

IT WORKS!

numero zoveel!

Checked the code, and the latter was indeed true

So I expanded the information

A lie? Or something I cannot see due to the informer not being entirely complete.... The latter appears more likely now!

Well?

Error in API link script

Take III

Link Error

Take II

Syntax Errors

Let's GO!

(And if no errors are thrown)

At the present time I can only check this out for the main zone, but I can check if the other two are properly hidden or not

Linked them to the map zones

Functions for accessing these written

Link up code

It's not over yet.... I now gotta code the MapScript that takes advantage of this

Compiling

NIL side of the code has been written

The C# part of my new invention has been coded

I've marked the place in three zones.... I did this for a system I've thought out specifically for this particular map.... My alternatives are just too crazy to bring to execution, so this is all I got!

You may still be able to see a few dominance issues along the road.... It's technically possible to fix that, but practically undoable, so I won't do that....
Either I must fix each tile on which the level is build up due to it being a TeddyBear conversion manually, or I would have to recalculate the at every pixel you move... The former is a fool's job, and the latter would slow down the game drastically, so either way is not an option....

It all works

One more test, but no serious issues expected anymore

A few blockmap issues in Xenor

It works

Again!

IDIOT!

Gotta test this of course!

Yes, I know this WILL lower the total performance of the game, but it is the only thing I can do to prevent dominance issues that occur otherwise to destroy the good look of the game

I've set that when the Y coordinate differs more than 40 pixels too much with the last remap setting, the dominance map will be automatically redone

Recompiling

Dominance Remap

Missing ".saskia" suffix

And that wasn't even what was about to the tested (GRRRR!)

missing keyword "not"

En ECHT kakkarlakje.... Nu blijven niet alleen de NPCs ongeoorloofd staan, maar werkt ook de uitgant ongeoorloofd niet meer!

Again!

SASKIA linkup missing

Squashed now?

For some reason the system keeps refusing to remove Irravonia and master Zack from the Exam Ruins when they should be....

I must say, you cannot yet enter buildings, plus you may even see some interious and the NPCs will not yet appear.... I cannot do all at once...

Gotta test if this all owrks

Linked worldmap record to it properly

Which will just like the original be "Oregon" by Wicky77

And I've set the music for the place

Done some corrections

As a result I don't have to manually redo all textures anymore in TeddyBear conversions and that saves me tons of work!

A quick tool had to do something about the texture issue I was suffering from, and it works the way it should

Now it comes down to what we can do to get more stuff done in less time when it comes to Maps converted to Kthura, as that is a kind of an issue

Made sure all Xenor textures have been properly transferred

Monsters put in

?

And now to put all this to the test!

Unlinked boss start platform from boss if Chapter 1 is compete

Irravonia and Zack were no longer allowed to appear as NPCs

Let's go.... again!

Unknown identifier

Let's go!
