I can see that you tried to compensate by making it yellow.
I wonder how a black shirt would work. I'd make the shirt over his body black and the trimming and ring that keeps the cape on yellow. I have no clue how that'd look.

Also, notice that in SMRPG Geno is a toy. This game I really don't want him to be in the toy's body (that was the only aspect of him that I thought was a bit gay).

Also, maybe we could lighten up his skin a bit?

I'm impressed that you could make something that nice in a day. I like.
Thanks. I'll make the shirt black, and animate that ring.

I'm trying to upload the image from my computer, but it won't work. It's a bmp file, and here's exactly what I type in:

[img]Geno.bmp[/img]

Why won't it work?

I just made some nifty looking icon buttons for the Nestix level editor. A few notes about the editor. I figured out a way around the blitz string thing, and actually I give credit to arce for helping me out. One of his programming topics asked how to make a thing where the user can type in his name for highscore or something. So I said some stuff and I to him to use the chr() function..... then I realized that was the command I needed. Thanks Arce! The reason I didn't thank of that sooner was probably that I forgot you could simply "add" strings together. Unlike C++ (is there a way to do that with operator overloading crap?).

So yeah, I'm close to finish. And say you want a level to have something special, I decided we should make it an event rather than making it part of the level data header thing. How's that?

BTW, what was the max level dimmensions again? 600x300 ???

Heh, I already forgot the max dimensions!

I'm sure he did that because of me. I got so sick fo going in there to see his game and before it starts, this super cheesy DOS console pops up and asks for my name. I couldn't stand it.

Is that chr() function like a getchar() or getc() in C?

Also, the operator overloading thing. I'm actually not sure about C++. That is how I do my perl scripts so that a poll can't accidently overwrite another poll with the same name. It adds a number to the end of the string and junk and yeah...

I really do need to figure out how to do that in C++. . .

Chr() just returns a char after converting the ascii value (number) into its respected string.

Yeah it would be really helpful if we could add strings with the plus sign in c++, Maybe Mar knows of a way?

Hey Gyrovorbis, you want me to start working on the sprite sheet for Geno? I can get to work whenever.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. I'd just like to get a bit more input from everybody on Geno currently. He's a pretty major ass aspect of the game, so I want him to be perfect.

I'm asking people what they think first.

JSL, you've been mighty silent. WELL?

Cool. I'll just kick back until you've got something else for me to do. :D

Well, I think its kinda hard to judge him when he's looking at us. Do you mind making a version of Geno actually in platformer mode, which he will be in like 99.9% of the game. You know, like facing right or left.
