Share funny shows. Only one show really makes me laugh, so I only have one input.
Parks & Rec. Go watch it. Seriously, everybody should know about it.
If this isn't allowed, then pardon me - the music thread gave me the idea.

So I've wanted to rip sprites from this game for the longest time and I think I know which file has them: https://www.dropbox.com/s/1fq9dbdxont2jrr/main.rsb

What I have just linked is the largest file in the entire app folder, which I have in my downloads. I, however, possess no knowledge of how to open the above file, as it is a .rsb file, which I'm not sure how to deal with.

Would anyone be able to assist me in finding a way to correctly get the sprites from this thing? Any assistance is much appreciated.

(If this is in the wrong place I apologize)

Here's what I got for Looney Tunes Sprites and Stuff:


  ACME Box.png (Size: 370 bytes / Downloads: 15)

  Wile E Coyote's Revenge Stage 1 Sprites.png (Size: 37.32 KB / Downloads: 15)

  WileERevengeStage1Bgs.png (Size: 55.28 KB / Downloads: 15)

  Taz-Mania Rips.png (Size: 25.92 KB / Downloads: 15)

This is all I am going to do because I can only get sprites if I can find something that is standing still!

If you want to submit these for your own, go ahead. But don't give credit to me.

I may have ripped these, but I want no part of the credits.

Are pixels too big in independent games? Time to decide in an official community discussion!


I for one believe that pixels should be the size of pixels. Maybe even smaller depending on the circumstance, but never more.

I'm still new on Drawing or painting, yet, for the encouragement from some of my friends on Pixiv, DA and Tumblr, well, I end up practicing, but I did learn on the wrong way of normal drawing. Even do, I keep practicing.

Some months ago a friend of my, Kupopo, well, I ask him if he could do me a drawing of "Jecht on is own style" for being curious about how he gonna drawing. Well I was right, he truly did an amazing work (and that he told me it was an sketch)

Spoiler (Click to View)

So, after that, I did ask him a week ago about if I can paint it, because I'm bad for make drawing from 0.
To know why, I end up making part of it without need of "line art". even more, I did end up doing on an style I never though I know. So here's, the big-size version of the in progress of the Collab I'm doing with Kupopo:

Spoiler (Click to View)

In anyway, I need to fix, or redo all the face, I still think its... well, not so well done compared with the one Kupopo did. and well, finish it up too...

3D animation, character rigging, and 3D character creation made by easy way to quick, and affordable in Yantram. Our studio performed the complete animation works included character rigging. There are plenty of other opportunity to model a 3d character Rigging for you : objects such as toys, customizable dolls, representations of medieval soldiers, the reproduction of the hero of your favorite comic book or movie and TV series , but also jewels like bracelets with animals.

Game Animations companies, 3d Character Rigging, Modeling, 3D Game Model created using Maya. 3D Yantram character modelling & 3d Game Character Rigging studio for computer games, Mobile makes up an integral part of the gaming process. Much as we often take for granted these creatively detailed designs, there is always a tedious behind-the-scene effort needed to make this characters come ‘alive’ by first creating an animated 3D model in different cities like that USA, London, Los Angeles, New York, Perth, Paris,etc...

Congratulations on your promotion, Vipershark!
In celebration of this fine occasion, enjoy Apart Dark!

hi hello again. it's me, kosheh :0) I'm using a pretty sweet forum theme that I wrote up for VGR and it's pretty neat! and I'm gonna share it soon! (not the code tho yet, ill do that like tomorrow)

If you want to see the cool new addition, just scroll some more until you see the big, centered text.


Apart Dark

just change your forum theme dude, jesus

This one's simply a remix of the default Apart themes, with a darker spin on them for those who prefer darker themes, but can't as easily get behind BoHeGeHa. It's a serenade of dark colors, with fancy text shadowing to make the stark contrast of light-text-on-dark-background a little more managable.

Apart Bohemia


Apart Bohemia's basically a homage to our old friend. You know who I'm talking about. )':
It's got a nice medley of blues that allow for a cool reading experience. It's like applying AXE in highschool, but to your eyes.




Now, you probably won't see Apart Bohemia for a little while, because I'll deliver the source to the sheet after...things happen. You know, things that should happen on VGR.

---

Now, here's the reason I made this topic: I got a little more creative (okay, not by much lol) and created~~

Apart GB
(but you can call it "monochrome baby" if you like)

Apart GB's basically a simplied version of one of the few AAA theme ideas I had for TSR years ago, but I was somewhat concerned that I couldn't pull it off due to the Afresh series' multiple use of images in category heads, etc. and was reluctant to create new themes for the forum (and instead simply just plopped completely themes into the database)

EDIT: I'm the most defensive about this theme now. ):
This is now going to be used for a not-so-secret project. It's got a lot of work to go on it (I haven't even started) but once it gets off the ground, you'll definitely see this theme rear its head in one forum or another...just not VGR, sorry!
* And obviously it's not gonna have the VGR logo lol

It's still in need of some work, though - it still needs buttons (but if anyone wants to contribute, they're welcome to help I guess - I'll make a project thread in the spriting forums if you guys are for it - reply and let me know!) but I've got pretty ambitious hopes for this one!!

Code:

Reserved for forum code

Q&A (Click to View)

Q: What's the deal? Vipershark? Why'd you just give up the theme like that?

A: Honestly, it's because VGR Did The Right Thing (for once!)

It happened. Vipershark is now an administrator.
In recognition of his promotion, I've handed over the code (and you all have access to it for a limited time until it's uploaded)

Now, I'll gladly make more themes for VGR in the future; the thing is though I don't work for free. Now, asking for money is silly.
Instead, I'd rather the staff of VGR just keeps on doing the right thing. The thing is, what counts as "The Right Thing"?
Well, they range from actually correct choices to outright silly.


Q: What will motivate Kosheh to make more themes?

A: Here's my wish list of things I'd like to see happen that'll make VGR great and I'm sure you'll all agree: (Click to View)

• As administrator, Vipershark has great plans and several good ideas that'll contribute to the well-being of the Resource. Make sure he does a really cool thing and it goes swimmingly (but he'll need your help, VGR - he needs your trust as well!)
• I know for a fact, mod team, that the pencil mascot of PT was named after a certain administrator on our forum. RIGHT? Show a little bit of throwback from the better times, when Kokisami and Absolute 9 ruled the Game Dev board with just a bunch of posts, when you had sex with the girl from Lazytown, and when Jordan was gay (next time baby ill be bulletproof). If you could all please stop denying it and confirm this as canon, with Petie recognizing Petey the Pencil as his official ref already (he can change it later) I'll gladly hand over the Apart Bohemia to celebrate this momentuous occasion.
• If a Serious Discussion forum is created, I'll have to whip up a Serious Forum Theme in Serious Recognition.
  Seriously.

More things will be added soon as soon as I figure out what my list was. There's several things I didn't write down, but if the staff keeps on making more good choices, I'll be motivated to make more themes. :V

Future theme ideas:

- VGR/DYKG mashup theme?
- Ideas? Suggestions? Color palettes preferred?

What's your position on this matter?

I'm personally okay with emulation of things that are no longer sold and purchased through conventional means, such as Atari, NES, SNES, Genesis, GBC & GBA, etc. However, for newer things like the Wii, 3DS, and etc. that are still sold and developed for today, I wouldn't emulate that. Unless of course, it's of something that was never localized, and got a fan translation or something.

The companies can't lose any money if there isn't any money to be made in the first place. Emulation is the better option than gambling on the usability of a random person's copy from something like eBay.

Hey! What happened here? Huh? The forums reset? Oh, OK. Guess we're starting fresh with Treeko and Mudkip.

So, here's some stuff I still need critique on.


GLaDOS. I have individual parts of her, but for the cords on the sides, I'm probably just going to make a single segment of those and link them together using string physics.


My TFR sprites using my own color palette with my and Gors' respective shading syles


Some fixes on Silver, a new Gilda sprite, and a test of the Wario Bros. as well as Mario jumping.



Teleporrting animation for my game.


Yoshi. Not much to say. It's Yoshi.


A test sprite for Hawkindle. IMO, it's nothing compared to the one Sketchasaurus made. The Krozoa Palace joke is because I kept hearing that squawky voice in my head while making this.

In honor of VGR's reboot and in hopes of generating some discussion, I thought I'd make some threads about things I like to talk about with people outside of the forums, which generally revolves around effective/ineffective design choices in games.

Note: If someone doesn't agree with you, don't get upset about their opinion. Focus your arguments on what was/wasn't effective and why, not on being "right" or "wrong." If you can't come to an agreement, just move on.

Fur Fighters

What makes the areas in Fur Fighters so good is the sheer amount of content in them. It's a third person shooter, but there are a lot of puzzles, collectibles and secrets in it. The levels are designed so that you're constantly given something new to look at, and many of these things have some form of interaction.

The hub world has all of the playable characters' houses, which adds to their...well, character. There are also unlockable minigames on the consoles in each of their houses, which is nice.

There's a PS2 version with cel shaded graphics and voice acting, and the original version with different graphics and weird simlish grunting on Dreamcast (which is the version I own). It's a little obscure so it's hard to find great pictures/videos of it

Mega Man Legends/64

Legends 2 has some good environments too, but I'm going to stick with 1 for now.

MegaMan and co. crash land on an island called Kattelox, which has a city that opens up to you more and more after various licensure procedures, as well as ruins that lead to underground treasure.

The Apple Market is a totally iconic place and a nice little spot that's open to you at the beginning. It's lined with stores that you can actually enter, including clothing stores (which don't serve much function besides being interesting), a music store (that has samples of different genres of music that you can actually listen to), and the junk shop where you buy gameplay-relevant things.

And of course, there's the easter egg where you kick the can into the bakery and get money for keeping the streets clean.



The rest of the city is filled with stuff as well. There's a hospital, a bank, and a library. There are vending machines and moving cars. There's a police station, and the police are actively involved in whatever happens on the island. There's a TV station and a news crew that broadcasts your attempts to stop the pirates. There's a part of the game where the pirates destroy buildings, and the extent of the damage is dependent on your ability to defeat the pirates quickly. Then after that, donations open up, and if you donate enough zenny to the town, you get to see the buildings return from their ruined state. It feels like there's an active, moving world, and you get to feel very much a part of it.

Check out some of how awesome Uptown is at:
http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Uptown

The ruins are pretty empty and not the fanciest thing to look at, but they have really iconic...walls. Seriously, though, the textures are cool. I don't think I'd even consider the emptiness a flaw, considering the long hallways and tight rooms contribute to the feeling of being isolated underground. The sound design really helps down there too, keeping the music quiet and making prominent the echoing sounds of Reaverbots you have to look out for.

(Let's try this again...)

There is a Japan-only MMO that goes by the name of Chaos Heroes Online. From my knowledge, it is a crossover between various franchises, one of which is BlazBlue. I would rip from the game myself, but the game is only in Japanese, with no English patch. Not only that, but you need to make a Sega account in order to download the game, and I've been boycotting Sega lately due to how they treated Platinum Games, and also due to them shunning all of their non-Sonic franchises.

So, without further ado, I would like to request model rips of these characters:

• Ragna the Bloodedge
• Jin Kisaragi
• Rachel Alucard
• Noel Vermillion
  

Thanks in advance!

It's been around a year since I've submitted anything, and dayum, things changed. The icons are bigger, the preview pictures are different...

Hey! I quite like the visual style of this project so I decided to mess around with spriting myself a character. It seemed like good practice! I wasn't necessarily planning to sprite a whole moveset but I figured I may as well have a thread for my exploits. As such I don't have anything like stats or playstyle decided, sorry.
