Take III

MoAR then.....

No debug information is shown whatsoever

Take II

Debugging is impossible without more information, but I how the #say tag will provide more information

Kaboom.... Don't start up, and no PROPER error message either, except for that importing has failed.... That's FAR from informative

So let's go for it!

Take I

First of all, I'm gonna see if all parse errors are gone, well that's easy, as Merya has been put in the lead in my last save game, everything will crash if that savegame has been loaded when parse errors still exist, however, once all parse errors have been accounted for, I need to put this to the test in an actual dungeon, and then dungeons I already have come to mind. Some of them already got points Merya's ability should react to, you know

I've scripted Merya's personal action, but I am far from sure if it works....

But first I need a break

And with that I can start to script out Merya's scan move

Must be recompiled of course

Everythin linked together now

Link code written

So that automatically link NALA to TQMG, but I'm not there yet

I have placed a link to TQMG in the BUBBLE API

Expanded the TQMG module with a circle function

clicking it does nothing at this point.....

This button should now appear when you put Merya in the lead

Button for Merya's personal action

Take V

Fix in requirement config

Bug in this force set up

Test Take IV

To void this issue

I didn't wanna, but i gotta resort to DIRTY CODE STRAIGHT FROM HELL!

(Thank goodness there is only one more playable character left... Not counting the guest, but that guest will be rather easy, compared to the others).

Bug not showing what Merya needs to unlock new moves

Take III

Fixed?

For some reason.... Neither Dernor's nor Merya's skill levels were accepted by the character initatator

Take II

Charm reference

Here goes nothing

Well Now I can at least check up Merya's ability sheet....

#127

#126

#125

And the moves have been tied to Merya's ability sheet

Follow Me

Fast Draw

Backstab

Intimidate

That one will be safe to use (once Merya has it unlocked, that is).

Virus Stab

Trying to use this move in combat will for now also crash the game

Pickpocket

For now all Dernor can do is Charm and crash the game in the process, but at least he has an ability sheet for now, and that is something I can start working with tomorrow

Trying to use this move in combat will until I scripted this out crash the game

Charm

BRB

Will follow soon.... Just wait for it

Updated

But before that is to happen first a backup, and while it runs I'll be taking a break

Please note that putting Dernor and Merya in the lead is still a bad idea, and that their ability sheets are still crashing the game... Those parts have simply not been scripted yet

All is cool now....

Now?

Forced a fix, as this was pretty stupid, and not worth reloading stuff for

for some reason both Jennifer's house and the grass plains do NOT appear on the world map

Let's see... All is cool now?

And the barrier preventing you from leaving until Rebecca and co. have joined will also be lifted now

Will unlock as soon as Rebecca, Dernor and Merya join the group

Grass Plains

Jennifer's house

Problem solved

Dagger

I forgot Merya's dagger in the item database, so the game WILL crash on looking at her character sheet

So far stuff works, except for one thing

Take III

Wrongly set up hide request

Take II

That should fix a call to a non-existent mapscript method

Odd line in SASKIA

Take I

The game will for now crash when you put Dernor or Merya in the lead or when you call their ability sheets.... This is however something I can deal with later, since I got 3 other characters who are fully functional

Once == Once!

Some skill set up for Merya

Some skill set up for Dernor

Merya

Dernor

I'll be back for more.... I need a break, and the worst is yet to come... Now Dernor and Merya will join the party.... TWO party members in once, so this is bound to go wrong.... terribly!

IT WORKS! :)

Test

Gate in fence wall should work now

Take II

Missing return

Let's do a quick test

As you know her blindness is related to a very dark secret....

And a temp error for blocking her later role

NPC in house linked to test

Cool!

Another go, then

Idiocy

That oughtta do ;)

I tired to fix an issue with entering Jennifer's house, as that doesn't work as it should

Another go, then?

Syntax error

Again!

Misuse of the gv system

I guess another test run is in order

And a forgotten variable has been set in order to make sure Rebecca, Merya and Dernor will appear when leaving Jennifer's house (that won't happen yet, but now I can at least write the script that checks on this)

Blockmap issues

A few scripting issues taken care of

Don't mind me work slow.... I'm also cooking in the meantime

I gotta test this of course

Jennifer

That's the interior of Jenifer's house

Area 011

FINALLY!

Take IV

Worldmap link error

Take III

Layer mistake

Take II

Yeah, that should have caused it!

Tag referrence typo

All my hard work is..... IGNORED!

Time to put a few things to the test....

I need to see if this all works, though

Jennifer's house => Cave

Cave => Jennifer's House

Tag

Before I can get to all that, though, I first need to link the caves and the yard around her house

Checked and made a few more adaptions and corrections

Improvements so Jennifer's face will apear prior to her mentioning her name

Auto-corrections

Jennifer Scenario transferred

Quick pre-transfer analysis

Since this is a scenario hub, and a very important one at that, a lof of script is to be expected here

Skeleton

Basic Script

Boxpic

Actor Jennifer

That is the outside of Jennifer's house

Area 009

The Crocodile Hunter

Crystal Clear

Take III

Broken Scyndi Hook Spots

Crackpoint Ok!

Take II

Let's see

The first whip hook jump doesn't work, at all!

Time to test if it all works

Trying to go to Jennifer's house will get you nowhere at the current point, as the link to Jennifer's house is not present yet... Heck, that entire location is not yet present

Well, we can strictly call Jennifer's house area 010, it will be part of a different Kthura map, and I will even stop the numbering there, mind you.....

Area 009

Area 008

Crusher

Magic Fashion Dress

And that was 49 takes..... Dang!

FINALLY!

Take XLIX

Pretty pretty pretty please with lots of sugar on the top and a bucket of honey and a thick layer of icing with whipped cream and sugar syrup and a glass of lemonade?

Pretty pretty pretty please with lots of sugar on the top and a bucket of honey and a thick layer of icing with whipped cream and sugar syrup?

Pretty pretty pretty please with lots of sugar on the top and a bucket of honey and a thick layer of icing with whipped cream?

Pretty pretty pretty please with lots of sugar on the top and a bucket of honey?

Pretty pretty pretty please with lots of sugar on the top?

Pretty pretty pretty please with sugar on the top?

pretty pretty pretty please?

Pretty please?

Please?

1..... 2..... 3..... 4..... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!

Take XLVIII

Let's FORCE my way through this!

Take XLII

Sigh!

Take XLI

Illegal function call

Take XL

Also had to be done for a long time, but now more important than ever (and this boss was also very suitable to test this one), predicting the enemies moves... Only works if they are past the COM point on the time gauge

THis only counts for the CORRECT element!

And I made sure that once the crystal has been hit by Irravonia with the CORRECT element it will cancel its turn when the actual attack was already moving from COM to ACT....

So still more weakness (sigh)

Boss fight takes too long, but we're getting somewhere, and that is important already!

Take XXXIX

Another 200% then?

Take XXXVIII

How much more do I need?

Take XXXVII

Weakness increase 300%

Test Take XXXVI

And the attacks by the boss have been increased 50% in power

But the same goes for the absorb element

Weakness 10x more effective

Stuff FINALLY works the way it shoud... However I should now do some fine tuning to make sure stuff is really okay here!

Take XXXV

Another

KILL!

Take XXXIV

I've slept... And I needed it!

But I really must go to bed now... And if I don't go now, I might as well skip the night!

I must replace "self" in the uncharge spell effect script

Take XXIII

Needed a declaration at the wipe script

Take XXII

This means I'm on the right way now, though

Spellani reference typo

Take XXI
