| Quote (Ace) JUS and Snoop has his LSW ....o.O lsw/jus adaptation style... woah
But heres another thing, if we work hard, and show progress with updates every other month or so, with a new character or two than it would bring forth more needs of discussion (at least for the time being without having to make it seem like the entire site's focus is on the game) Not only that, mayb we can holkd contests on a character they'd liek to see, or guess who will be added next, etc. I had an idea where on a youtube channel, a series of of animations for a moveset will be shown as a preview for an upcoming character, but the entire sprite will be black and at the very end of the animation, get rid of the black sprite and replace it witha full base sprite, to feed the curiosity and get things more looking forward to.

| Quote (sgn_15) will you guys please make this site not accessible without logging in??? people do not bother logging in and/or post because of that That was done for easier access, since not everyone's computer keeps them logged in. I agree with you though, waay too many people are checking out the stuff without bothering to log in, or possibly even without making an account. And for some reason, the Intro Section is invisible to guests but the Pixel Art section isn't.

| and also, any game you plan that is 100% on custom is a no-no. it will never be finished, regardless of what style.
probably just make add-ons or expansions. 100% custom sheets are too much to do, unless you never run out of inspiration/motivation.Added (2012-01-14, 9:04 AM) ---------------------------------------------

| Just make a MUGEN JUS style game, it's the easiest. But I'd rather.......We just make the next Jump Stars game sort to speak? It's rather easy to expand Naruto, Ichigo, Sasuke, Luffy, etc. We would really need to learn from the coders at http://forums.mcleodgaming.com/index.php most likely. Also I'm already making Cell which has a toooon of hype for w.e reason news that it's in a game may draw people here.

| Quote (Souleaterf) Who is that meow guy? W.e I post crit he writes something I can't understand but I think it's hostile lol I don't get that guy either. He's thinks he's awesome, and only wants to hear good things. He's definitely not suited to lead that group... Quote (Ace) On another note, I know a lot of people come on with out bothering to log in sometimes, just to check new messages... but THIS is kind of ridiculous. Yes, I often do that too... I'm too lazy to log in, sorry
But as has been said, we really should do something to get activity up. And as we've noticed, also from the past, advertising is not gonna work... And I guess that a game really is the best way to do so. And as suggested before, we all know that customs aren't going to work, we've seen that more than enough, so expansions and edits are the best choice I guess
Okay, so basicly I just repeated what has been said before, right?

| Okay guys, I've offered this suggestion before- but hell- let me try it again. Goal.1: -Make a youtube channel for the site/ spriters in general
Goal.2: -Set up a team of workers. ...Anyone can apply to join ......We should try getting some more advanced video effects maker from youtube. (<<this actually works. Some will come and help out We can get soem by asking some amv makers or that kind. This is unless we have our own here of course.) ...Whoever joins as leading positions on youtube channel has access to password. ...Each "leading position" receives monthly tasks, unless there are more workers under him then tasks will be broadened.
-Goals! ...These leader (leading positions) will have to decide a part they'd like in the whole process. ...... There can be animation series makers, updates on the MUGEN game (unless other game, official updates on the site, a spriting academy with various theoretical lessons and guides, possibly a showcase of past contest winners (of contests coming up/occuring/etc). .........These can be added onto/dropped according to whom is helping out at any given time.
Goal.3: -Make sure not to have too much on the youtube channel where noone will come here. ...Sure past contest winners will be shown there but the "updates videos" will announce and remind [to everyone] that they should compete in the competition in order to get showcased.
-Keep them coming! ...Show Team Dotto progress only on the youtube and not here. But they can apply to join [the team] on this site.
Goal.4: -Get started! I'm going to make a youtube channel regardless if this goes through as soon as Ii finish up writing the newsletter for JUSSPRITER. ...I'll make sure to make a thread soon, hosting more info on this whole lot.
**note, I'm thinking although the youtube channel can be made soon- we shouldn't actually start uploading videos until we set everything up here on the site. So new informational docs, sections in the forum, etc.
As far as JUSSPRITER goes. We should probably find a way to transfer our members into a new group where pixelgen members have control over it. I was very stupid to do this. Nonetheless, I will try to figure out a way to fix it.
Soul, Mcleod for MUGEN coding? (I think I misunderstood) They're more of flash or c++ coding system- similar to gamemaker programs.
As far as an expansion to jus- that sounds good. Real good.

| Quote and also, any game you plan that is 100% on custom is a no-no. it will never be finished, regardless of what style. The thing with custom sprites for a game is the most we`ll complete will be around 5-8 unless we have alot of good spriters.

People at Mcleod don`t really know how to code,their really new to coding (except for a handful of them but I doubt they will bother to join this game project) and they pretty much all use Gamemaker

| Quote (RetroMafioso) Soul, Mcleod for MUGEN coding? (I think I misunderstood) They're more of flash or c++ coding system- similar to gamemaker programs. I believe he meant that we should try to get some flash coders to do something. MUGEN isn't nearly as popular as it once was, but you can find flash games all over the place. Plus, if we were to go with the whole "next Jump Stars game" idea, I'm not sure it'd be possible with MUGEN.
The youtube idea sounds promising if we can keep it organized, unlike the last time I was on a site that attempted that. I have Sony Vegas Pro 10, but I'm not very experienced with it. Haven't even touched it since first semester of sophomore year, and I only ever did very basic stuff with it.
I think the hardest part for any of these plans will be finding people willing to help. I just met a guy on dA who might possibly be willing to make some animations for us, and he's pretty damn good. Then of course there's MM, although I haven't seen him in a week or so.
I'm afraid I don't know any flash coders, although sgn does MUGEN and Coty has been doing some html stuff. I also have a friend who's learning C++, but he wasn't able to do much the last time I talked to him about it.

| personally, I'd prefer we revamp it in some way. I just don't feel right using officially made sprites.
emerald might also be able to help us out (he was on here for a while, and he is also a contrib on the group)
