Crimson Red Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Hey Felover stop posting on other forums and get on FES lol and I'd lmao if Felover won in fact if this were a public vote I'd start a campaign XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashGordon94 Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 He's got a point. FEXP is just annoying in general and I personally hate the controls. They're fucked up, and if anything, While FEXP is easier to work with, it's slow and you have NO save states. If you feel it should have no place in the contest, then ban it. That's not quite my point, my point was basically that he doesn't need to stress himself over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokinator Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 (edited) If nothing else' date=' ROMs are better optimized and don't have clunky controls and tons of annoying glitches. I'd go as far as to say ROM hacks, while not very friendly to make, are a lot friendlier to play.That said, I really don't like FEXP, and I don't really feel it should have a place in this contest.[/quote'] He's got a point. FEXP is just annoying in general and I personally hate the controls. They're fucked up, and if anything, While FEXP is easier to work with, it's slow and you have NO save states. If you feel it should have no place in the contest, then ban it. Nice copy-paste. I doubt you've ever actually played a FEXP game yourself, as it's really not that slow if you have a decent post-2009 computer. If you're running windows Vista or better it should run at full speed with little lag, and possibly even faster than the average game made in RMXP. Just because it doesn't include a GS button that hyperspeeds everything doesn't make it slow, as it's at roughly the exact same speed as if you were playing on a GBA. Most people are just too pampered with the emulators and their speedup buttons to realize it's really quite a good speed. Also, I just stated that it does indeed have a save system, scripted by one of my coders. I could also easily expand it to have more than one savestate, no problem, because he added that capability as well. However, for the purpose of my ragefest, I decided not to, because I thought one savestate was more than fair enough. and I personally hate the controls. They're fucked up, and if anything, The controls are actually quite smart. X = confirm, Z = cancel, S = Unit info, and A = next unit, along with spacebar being enemy moverange. I'm quite comfortable with them because, to be blunt, I'm not canadian. Edited June 8, 2012 by Adolf Klokler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primefusion Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Klok, bro, it's time to give it a rest. You and PK are, like, the only people who use FEXP. Peeps just prefer ROMs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokinator Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 (edited) However......................... you are not Trent :3 Klok, bro, it's time to give it a rest. You and PK are, like, the only people who use FEXP. Peeps just prefer ROMs. I just got a PM from BooMansion today, he's secretly been adding all the GBA FE classes into FEXP, multiple unimplemented skills from FE4, 5, 9, and 10 into FEXP, and a bunch of special weapons from FE4 and FE5 which are totally BA. I think FEXP is about to make a humongous leap forwards when we release this :3 Edited June 8, 2012 by Adolf Klokler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jubby Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 I kinda do, too. ROM hacking is easier to learn, in my opinion, unless you already have programming knowledge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BwdYeti Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I think FEXP is about to make a humongous leap forwards when we release this :3 Fixing up the code (implementing everything from GBA FE and optimizing the speed) would have a much bigger impact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokinator Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 That's why we're implementing most of the animations and stuff from GBAFE, that's the goal lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokinator Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Coding isn't my forte though, I just work with the tools I'm given and I have learned to add animations and some other resources to FEXP. Unless Yeti, the original coder, goes back to reoptimize his code, or we wait a whole year for another scripter to read all the code and learn it front and back, then fix it, it's unlikely to be optimized any more anytime soon. Though I'd love it if it was optimized, I don't see it happening anytime soon. So, I'll just continue adding all the GBA graphic resources until everything is in FEXP, then maybe I'll try and learn to either code some essential systems or pay someone else to do so.

47948201 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 The engine for my RF4 submission is already somewhat optimized. I took out some of the laggy "features" and functions so at least cursor movement is much faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klokinator Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Either way, I won't be doing RF anymore as I have Medallion of Hope to work on xD so if it got banned from RF, that only affects PK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
47948201 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 And I do have some very basic hacking knowledge, though I wouldn't be able to do the chapter I was planning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkyJoe1990 Posted June 10, 2012 Author Share Posted June 10, 2012 (edited) Update: I've decided that the nature of the contest needs to be changed. What do you mean by this, Marky? Well, random voice in my head, what I mean is that the contest needs to aim to be more about entertaining the viewers. The goal of Ragefest 1 was to make a submission that would troll the living hell out of me. This has been the main focus ever since, but it sometimes doesn't result in an entertaining video. For example, people implement stuff like disabling the options menu (PwnageKirby's submission), which do nothing to make the video more entertaining to watch, and only serve to annoy me. Sometimes, these annoying factors end up ruining my commentary enthusiasm, which really hurts the viewing experience. The contest would be a lot more fun for both me and the viewers if we put greater emphasis on making the submission entertaining. And if something is meant to annoy me, it should be done with the intent of entertaining the viewer (Such as getting an enormous emotional reaction out of me, or introducing a new factor into the submission that makes it more interesting) Does this sound fair?

47948201 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 That sounds like a much better goal. But I'm not sure I'll have any chance next round then xP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatGuyDownTheStreet Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I think that is a very good idea. Would definitely make the contest better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladehero22 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 (edited) Hmmm... I know a way that will entertain your viewers... Oh, I know many MANY ways...

MarkyJoe1990 Posted June 10, 2012 Author Share Posted June 10, 2012 Hmmm... BladeHero22, we get it already. You're gonna troll the living hell out of me. Now stop trying to hype yourself up when you don't even fully know how to make a single chapter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
