  1. Very few games can make me cry, and this is one of them:

      Lots of games could make me cry if I let them. It doesn't need fancy graphics or anything...  Heck I think one of the best game endings is in Minecraft. Or maybe I am just a sucker for that kind of philosophical psychedelic paratextual poetry. Yeah it's probably pretty pandering, but it pleases my palate. :3

      Theres a few that have brought me to tears, the best one for me though is the ending of Horizon Zero Dawn, absolutely amazingly emotional.

      When I finally got to the ending of Guitar Hero: Smash Hits/Greatest Hits, definitely had those feels. Oh, and yeah; YYZ on Expert Bass was really F*CKING HARD to pass. That was the final encore song to play. I definitely relied entirely on Star Power to get me through.

      Final Encore Songs in GHSH:
      Guitar: Extreme-Play With Me (GH80's)
      Bass: Rush-YYZ (GHII) (X+)
      Vocals: Queen-Killer Queen (GH)
      Drums: SLAYER-Raining Blood (GHIII) (X+)
      Band: Avenged Sevenfold-Beast and the Harlot (GHII) (X+)

      Here: let me show you the ending, since I'm probably the only rhythm gamer here #LMAO:
      (it's all cutscenes but it's likely the last one-they're all short)

  2. Just found this:
    https://www.autohotkey.com/
    I wonder if any programmer will be interested to that :)

      I've vaguely known about it for years, but haven't actually done anything with it till recently when I used it too add hotkeys for the mouse wheel since my laptop doesn't have one. Sure I think there are touchpad gestures for it, but I can't stand touchpad gestures.

  3. Updates * { codebase: "1.0.2", plugin: "v1.01a" }(2020 Oct 11 GMT 0900): * 1. Added the plugin query and command counterparts for the following * script calls of this plugin: * - battlerCooldown() * - isBattlerCooldown() * - skillItemCooldown(item) * - isSkillItemCooldown(item)
  4. I just have an idea on combining DDR played with keyboard, and typing speed exercise.
    Basically, you need to type a document in English, but each character's typed with the timing in sync with the music used.
    Maybe with the aid of fast paced music, one's typing speed can reach unprecedented levels :)
    I'm gonna make a proof of concept when I've tons of free time :D

       That sounds like it would be crazy difficult (unless maybe if the player is allowed to skip beats between words). I donno about anyone else, but I rarely if ever hear anyone type with any kind of steady rythem. It just seems to take longer to do the mental rejiggering between words then it does to type any given word.

       

      Also,  while we are on the subject of speed typing, is it just me or is speed typing is a sort of overrated skill? Unless you are taking direct dictation I guess. In my experience all but the slowest of typists can type fast enough that they are going to run out of things to type long before they are done processing what they should type next. Maybe it's just me, but whenever I reply to something I often find myself staring at the screen for minutes without typing a word because I am too busy thinking about what exactly I am saying. Even if I am just reading something and typing it down word for word I keep having to look back and forth anyway and my memory is much slower then my typing speed. And I don't even home row, just pick! I think I am pretty fast for a picker though.

      There's already an Initial D speed typing game that does this. LGR covered this a while back.

      By the by, home row typists have rheumatoid arthritis now.

      @PhoenixSoulI've checked that game and I don't think that's what I'm thinking, and I think I've to make that proof of concept to really elaborate my idea :)

  5. Purpose Lets you use script calls to filter unit members with less codes and eventing Introduction * 1. Without any plugin, getting a member with specific conditions * relative to the belonging unit, like finding the party member with * the highest amount of hp, demands relatively heavy event setups, * even with the aid of common events, which boost event reusability. * 2. With this plugin, the same can be done using several easy, simple * and small script calls instead of writing several common events * from scratch, thus further improving effectiveness and efficiency.

  7. Purpose Lets you set some states to persist after the battler's dead and revived Introduction * 1. The default RMMZ states are all gone when the battler's dead * 2.

  8. Purpose Lets you set some confusion states to not be restricted to attacks only Introduction * 1. The default RMMZ confusion causes the battler to only use attack * and nothing else * 2.

  9. It seems to me that I'm too lazy to make new MZ plugins with my full time job, so I'm porting my easy, simple and small MV plugins instead.
    I hope I can port 1-2 such plugins per day, but this will be hard for me :)

      Don't break your creative drive over it.
      If shit gets frustrating, take a break.

  10. While RMMZ has already released for about a month, the reviews are still mixed(64% positive among 225 reviews), at least according to Steam(I failed to find any other quantified reviews of comparable significance yet). Although the overall score shows a slight upward trend overall, it still doesn't seem to look good, at least compared to RMMV, where it received 108 positives and 27 negatives, netting a 80% score, with a much more obvious upward trend later on. The most obvious thing that can be done for those having bought RMMZ via Steam, is to give a positive review with solid reasons, like what I've given quite a while ago But, maybe more can be done to further boost the review scores legitimately, apart from another obvious thing that resource makers can continue to make more and more awesome resources for the community I've also briefly checked the NEGATIVE REVIEWS FROM STEAM, and here are the summary of all the points I've collected(which is by no means exhaustive): Please note that I'm just trying to summarize the points I've collected from negative Steam reviews, and it has nothing to do with whether I agree or disagree with any of them. So, I'd like to open this post to collect ideas on some possible ways to make RMMZ to have overwhelming positive reviews, and this doesn't have to be limited to Steam, because I think later on there will be some other quantified reviews of comparable significance

      Remember that browser malware that would redirect all web browsing to a fake Yahoo site?

      Probably that one. Ugh, I hated dealing with it.

      At the very bottom of the RAM page it says that it's a joke website & not a scam.

  14. Purpose Lets you edit some database data on the fly and such edits will be saved Introduction * 1. This plugins lets you change some database data on the fly, and those * changes will be saved in save files * 2. Changing too many database data in the same save can lead to the save * file being too big, so only make absolutely necessary changes * 3. This plugin doesn't work with dynamic map data, and I've no plans to * support this, as it's all too complicated and convoluted to make it * work well without creating even greater troubles, like the game file * being too big and map reload issues * 4.

  18. Before the full time job, I can make 1 MZ plugin per day, even though it's still hard; With the full time job, making 1 such plugin per week becomes just as hard lol

    1. PhoenixSoul

      PhoenixSoul

      If I ever had a full-time job, I'd have no energy for anything else, I'm certain.

      (likely because I'd have a job that drained me and one I didn't like in any way shape or form)

      Can relate, my full time job drastically slowed everything I'm working on. sad times ;-;

Lets you use text instead of arg for plugin command argument names * 3. Plugin command name collisions across plugins will no longer exist * if newPluginFileCmds is used wisely * 4. Explained some applications of newPluginFileCmds * 5. Renamed pluginCmds into pluginFileCmds * 6. Renamed newPluginCmds into newPluginFileCmds * 7. Increased the effectiveness and efficiency when reading plugin * commands from the plugin file contents * 8. THIS UPDATE IS A BREAKING CHANGE ON THE PARAMETERS IN THE PLUGIN * MANAGER
  20. Updates * { codebase: "1.0.0", plugin: "v1.01a" }(2020 Sep 11 GMT 1400): * 1. Lets you make some new plugin commands as existing ones with some * argument values already set * 2. Fixed the bug to load even inactive plugins and those not in the * plugin manager when the parameter pluginCmds is empty Video
  21. Just watching an hour of some LP of CoD MW(2019), and I'm already liking that game, sadly my PC won't be able to play it :)

      Hey, don't say you like a cod game! You will lose your indie cred! You do get some points for being unable to run it though.

      Even if I were interested (nope! Not remotely! lolz), there's no way my craptastic hardware could run such a game; I don't think it could run Halo even! 🤣
