You must okay it with me first before you get the second part though.

Hmmm... part 7, which goes directly after mine, is empty. Let's make a deal, shall we? If no one takes it before I finished part 6, I'll do something with it, mkay? Sorta like saying that if you need someone to do part 7, I am available.

Well I've realized that I'm not really that great at drawing/animating. If you look, my part in the PixelMas collab was simply building something out of pixels.

Anyway, Mexifry, if you need any help with anything pertaining to this collab, I'll help :D. Just send me a pm.

I might need help compiling parts again. Like piecing the parts together.

I'm not too great at doing that. :P

I'll be happy to do an extra part, but only after I finish the one I'm currently working on. So... Put me on a maybe list for a second part sort of like last time.

I'm no artist. I'm a talentless hack who loves to doodle/animate from time to time.

OK guys, here is a screenshot of what I started doing today. It's only the scenario though, and it's halfway done. It's the first shot that will appear in my part, and it will only last 2.5 seconds as a few characters run down the street... but that's a surprise.

It still needs a lot of work though since I need to finish the buildings, add some other elements, details, apply shading... then animate the characters running through the street... only for 2.5 seconds of animation. And the rest of the scenes are going to need even more work, since they are very animation packed :(

But you won't see beyond this scene. I will post another screenie tomorrow if I can, when I've progressed on it. For the rest you will have to wait until the collab is submitted :D

How is it looking so far?

P.S: There's a small white line at the bottom, but it's because of Photoshop. Don't have time to fix it now.

Get the extention manager, and add the component via the extension manager.


Misunderstood

>_> Yeah, I did. Mexifry's latest slot update post had openings for 3, 7, 9, 15, and the preloader, but later he says 15 is gone and that 9 isn't, but he may have given that slot to Lesjuh. Also, his signature says that two slots are left. All in all, I'm a bit lost as to what slots are open in actuality.

Does "no sprites allowed" mean you can't make a movie clip and draw into it and use those images you just made for the animations, or does it mean NO sprites AT ALL?

if you think ((1*10)+2) - (1+(sqrt 1) = 6, you know your addicted to Lost

"No sprites allowed" means that we don't want to see copyrighted material in our collab. This includes sprites directly ripped from any game as well as any alterations to those sprites. In otherwords no "custom spriting". You are expect to only include your own original character, preferably specifically dedicated to this collab.

Bottom line is, use your own artwork. How you choose to animate, however, is up to you.

I'm actually considering changing what the credits will look like as well. The one I have so far isn't working out as well as it could.

4 Parts Left...

Normally I am against this, but I am giving the option for people to make more than one part.

You must okay it with me first before you get the second part though.

So it is okay for you to use the preloader I made if JKA couldn't do it?

Here's a little bit more of my part.

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?nm yhmczem11

It doesn't look good by my point, but its the art I working on. I can work on the animations later and probrobly change the keyframes. I dunno, whatacha think?

Anyway, I gonna take a nap.... With Godzilla! *Raise Eyebrows* ;:P
