The Chronicles of Kanbabrif

[DakHam]

Hey, I was away on a trip and only just got back today.

Yes, the sprite and portrait are amazing and excellent, exactly what I wanted. =)

And yes, you did interpret what I meant about blue -> black correctly, bastardpoetry. Although you probably would not be bothered to change it anymore anyway now.

Two thumbs up from DakHam.

[Cheetah]

Glad we got your portrait and sprite all squared away Dak Ham.

Oh man this thread is getting long. There is no limit though right?

[Dominic NY18]

It gave me that long error message (the one that starts with warning) at the top of my window. When I went to check the avatar, all that appeared was a red x.

[Cheetah]

Oh I did totally have the wrong size. Here you go Dominic.

[Archael]

I know you and BP have been busting your asses on this because there hasn't been alot of updates from you guys

I can't wait

[Cheetah]

Haha yeah pretty much.

[Bastard Poetry]

Hey guys!

Sorry I haven't been around much. I'm working my ass off on the video whenever I get a chance.. which is, unfortunately, not happening as often as I would like. As many of you may have guessed, Part II still isn't even close to completion yet. By the end of tomorrow, I may have it over 50% complete, but it will still take a few weeks to finish the rest.

Cheetah has been an absolute STUD about helping with the work load. In fact, I can very confidently say that he has done far more work on this project so far than I have.. though it is my turn now. He's pretty much finished all of the sprite/portrait work now, and all that's left is for me to keep throwing all of this stuff together and creating the scenes. There are going to be 8 scenes total, with an estimated running time of approximately 45 minutes. As of right now, I have 1 big scene finished, and I'm working on 2 BIGGER scenes today and tomorrow. Just to reassure you guys.. those 3 are the HARD scenes. The rest should be cake. Time consuming cake, but cake nonetheless.*

Next week is moving week for me. We're moving from Denver to Fort Collins, for school reasons. I'm pretty excited about it, but only because I like "starting over" in a new house.. I'm not too thrilled about leaving Denver, though. It's always been MY city, damn it. Anyways, everything that could possibly deter me from working on this project HAS and WILL CONTINUE TO accost me from every conceivable direction, but I am fighting tooth and nail to keep at it when I can! I repeat: tooth and nail. Biting and.. um.. fingernail scratches! Like a frenzied bastard!

So just hang tight, be patient and keep doing what you guys do best! I promise that this video will be MORE THAN WORTH THE WAIT!



* The cake is a lie. I just wanted to be optimistic.

[Zozma]

*looking forward to it* you know i made a hatless theif sprite too right? looks like that avatar without the hat.

[Cheetah]

The hatless thief is definitely sweet. I dig his hair.

[Zozma]

i think when i make a patch, ill call his job Rouge nad also make the green outfit, red (tho i really don't mind the green either

[BeoulveBlack]

i think the rogue would look cool in a dark, dusky (pale) blue...

where's BP, i need to send him my sprite for part 3...

[Zozma]

you know, you're right ill try that blue out

[Bastard Poetry]

Everyone needs to check out Voldemort's commentary vids of The Villian of Ivalice!

[8Bit Fighter]

Yeah, watched them and loved them.

It also rememinded me I need to work on creating my nurse/priest character for part 3 i told ya i would work on back at the GameFAQ boards.

[LastingDawn]

You know, I hadn't noticed this the first... three times, I watched the first part, but while watching Voldemort's video commentary, Kanbabrif's goal appears to be to bring down the Occuria. This oddly conincides with my theory of that being the Lucavi's ultimate goal, reign terror on Ivalice, to call the God's down, then when they had enraged them and lured them to fight, dispatch of them. Now that the Gods are fighting on middle ground and not their home turf it gives Altima and her Lucavi a much better chance of victory, since the battle is no longer a defense battle, but a wide open fight. It is strange that this also appears to be Kanbabrif's goal... hmm...

[Bastard Poetry]

For those of you who don't know, m'lady and I were burglar'd for hammer recently. Someone broke into our new place while we were asleep upstairs and oblivious, and stole our laptops (OUCH), a stack of empty cd cases (zing on them), a pack of cigarettes (Eclipse, which are 'fakey-like' because I'm trying to quit.. so zing again?), a lighter and my deodorant, for some fucking reason. (It's good deodorant?) Ever since then, we've been on the hunt--pawn shops, craiglist, police beatdowns, etc--to try and find our precious toys.

We still haven't had any luck finding them. We just discovered several non-pawn-shop-like businesses in this city that buy and sell used computers, so we're going to check those out later today. I'm really hoping that we find them, and preferably before the hard drives are wiped out. The odds are slim, but it would be really nice to reclaim my work on the Chronicles of Kanbabrif Part 2. I was about 40% complete.

If we find the laptop with everything erased, then I will start from scratch. Cheetah still has all of the character sheets and such, and I still have ONE COMPLETED SCENE stashed away somewhere. So.. about 10% right there.

If we can't find the laptop, then it will be a long time before I can get back to work. I need to save up money to buy a decent computer. I have internet access again, true, but I'm using some ancient monstrosity from the Clinton administration with only 3 gig and a penchant for failing to recognize even the simplest USB memory stick things.

[Vanya]

Aww, dude that sucks! I wish you the best of luck in finding them intact. If that happened to me I'd probably take a very long hiatus from my project.

[Xifanie]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT!

This guy got a death wish.

If only I had his face, name and a notebook; damn.

[Cheetah]

Damn you thieves. Oh and BP I think Zozma did one of the sprites you requested like forever ago for the council members. I don't think he even remembered that you were originally the one who requested them.

[LastingDawn]

Indeed, the Baron Bolmna is finished! And such a wonderful sprite he looks!
