Dragon City Mod

[QQuix]

Dragons or thrusters (or balloons) may give the impression the city is maneuverable (is it?)

 

If you guys go for some kind of visual evidence of the magic that keeps the city in the air, I suggest something like a cloud or mist under each city part, as if the city is sitting on a magic mist.

[Triforce1]

Yeah, I can try the mist. I like that the best. We'll see. Does anyone know if there is a mist object? Surely I can find ones in dungeons.

Try looking into the statics FXMistGroundEffect01 and FXCloudSmall01. :ninja:

C'mon, now, Triforce! Don't let THE MAN tell you what to do! You know you want wing-ed buildings just as much as I do. Or tiny propellors.

[tyreil829]

i think a poll is in order then mate to get this over with savvy?

 

vote for thrushers

or

Winged or mini propellors

Okay, okay! I'll post a poll now. Find it under general mod talk. Personally, I like the propeller idea. Except, that makes one more thing I have to make and animate. Uhg. :down:

You wouldn't really need to animate it... You might need to do it in two parts, but you could just slap a script on the propeller.

 

scn DCPropellerScript
ref AdjustedAngle

Begin GameMode
 set AdjustedAngle to GetAngle z (or x or y, depending on how the propeller faces) + 1
 setangle z (or x, or y...) AdjustedAngle
end

Hehehehehe... I like it.

 

Back to business. I am kinda getting the hang of deciphering already-made scripts. However, I am still a little confused. I am very happy that you have "slapped together" a script for me. However, the parts where I must "insert own data here". Hmmm. Well, there is little chance of that happening successfully. So while I appreciate you attempting to help an [eternal] scripting noob at an easy way out, I think fog might be the easy way out. But vote! Convince me otherwise!

The "insert own data here" bits are just depending on what axis would make the propeller "turn" properly. In a worst-case scenario you could just try X, Y, and Z until one works. That said, a city held up by propellers seems weird to me. Fog for the win. :)

What's this?! Seems to ME that LoginToDownload needs to check his glasses, 'cause he's seeing DOUBLE!

 

LoginToDownload CLAIMS that he supports the Fog agenda. LoginToDownload CLAIMS that Propellors would seem, "weird." But is that what he REALLY thinks?

 

Let's look at the FACTS. In 2008, LoginToDownload, an outspoken opponent of the Propellor party, actually donated a script, which our analysts have valued at FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLARS. But was this donation made to the Fog party, who he espouses, "for the win?" Seems to ME like it would be...

 

BUT IT WASN'T. In 2008, LoginToDownload made his SEVENTEEN BILLION DOLLAR donation to... the Propellor party. The party who he called, "weird."

 

Now, I'm sorry, Mr. ToDownload, but it seems to ME that the only thing "weird" about this campaign is that you apparently can't decide what YOU want(!), much less what would be right for the modding community! Seems to ME that LoginToDownload probably collapses into a NERVOUS WRECK just trying to decide which SOCKS to PUT ON in THE MORNING. How can we believe a single word LoginToDownload says?!

 

Seems to ME there's only one RIGHT choice. Make a decision this election... poll... day and vote Propellor '08.

 

I am a Propellor, and I approve this message.
