Todays agenda: Get the countdown timer looking good

oh god yes

I can test the timer! haha, since i'm right there

Timu: Your avatars seem a bit to toony and to little detail. maybe add some shading? Or do you plan to and thats just a preliminary mockup?

sl1982 · « **Reply #178 on:** 2009-08-16 16:42:34 »

I dont think i quite have a decent enough grasp on those vector graphics. Have to do it the old fashioned way

Timu Sumisu · « **Reply #179 on:** 2009-08-16 17:18:07 »

Here is a little more detail, I may start frm scratch again, i'm not that pleased with this

sl1982 · « **Reply #180 on:** 2009-08-16 17:32:10 »

Timu, want to work on a countdown timer instead? Anything i do looks like crap

Timu Sumisu · « **Reply #181 on:** 2009-08-16 17:38:39 »

post the originals in a viewable image format (not .tex) or email em to me

sl1982 · « **Reply #182 on:** 2009-08-16 17:49:47 »

Image needs to be resized to 1024x1024 to match the files ive been using.

Timu Sumisu · « **Reply #183 on:** 2009-08-16 17:51:38 »

Interesting, what do i do with the colors, leave them as they are?

sl1982 · « **Reply #184 on:** 2009-08-16 17:54:17 »

Up to you. I think red would be a nice color for the numbers. AS for the background whatever you prefer. This is basically just a template though. The numbers are spread out through multiple textures that i will have to import your work into.

Timu Sumisu · « **Reply #185 on:** 2009-08-16 17:56:50 »

Well, my main concern was cuz all the colors are grey/blue/purple, should i stick to that? and am i just doing the countdown numbers or everything

sl1982 · « **Reply #186 on:** 2009-08-16 18:09:13 »

Grey blue and purple arent the actual colors. The are placeholders for the game engine to use different palletes. Since we are doing things a different way with one png for each palette we need to draw in the actual colors we want to use. I wouldnt worry about the rest of the stuff on that image. Pretty sure i have most of it done. Except for the materia slots

sl1982 · « **Reply #187 on:** 2009-08-16 18:10:58 »

Basic rule of thumb, what you draw in the image is what you will see in the game. So unless you like blue/purple.....

Timu Sumisu · « **Reply #188 on:** 2009-08-16 18:11:11 »

nearly done with questions... you want it the the same overlay style (all the numbers greyd underneath, and the current number on top) and/or you want the number font broken up like in original or filled up

sl1982 · « **Reply #189 on:** 2009-08-16 18:17:28 »

Try sticking close to the original since every time i change things a bit everyone says it should be more like the original lol

Timu Sumisu · « **Reply #190 on:** 2009-08-16 18:25:48 »

Can i have a screen of the original ingame?

sl1982 · « **Reply #191 on:** 2009-08-16 18:31:44 »

Timu Sumisu · « **Reply #192 on:** 2009-08-16 18:39:56 »

Here's a start of the outlines

I guess i'll do the old school purple too then.

Timu Sumisu · « **Reply #193 on:** 2009-08-16 18:44:23 »

Thought we were staying to the original

sl1982 · « **Reply #194 on:** 2009-08-16 18:45:53 »

Hmm. I like red myself, but i dunno. We are allowed a tad of artistic license arent we?

Timu Sumisu · « **Reply #195 on:** 2009-08-16 19:04:46 »

Outline is done, doing the backgrounds now

sl1982 · « **Reply #196 on:** 2009-08-16 19:05:42 »

Fast work. Looking good

Timu Sumisu · « **Reply #197 on:** 2009-08-16 19:24:12 »

For the backgrounds, is it okay to have solid black? or will that cause headaches for paletting or something liek that?

willis936 · « **Reply #198 on:** 2009-08-16 19:26:13 »

Hmm, as much as I like staying true to the original I like the idea of red digital clock look.

sl1982 · « **Reply #199 on:** 2009-08-16 19:30:10 »

Nope. Nothing wrong with that.
