A file for 1 character will be arranged into 2 rows and 4 columns equaling 8 images. The size for a character image can be changed freely (normally 48x48), and consist of 4 directions (down, left, right, up) and 3 patterns for a total of 12 patterns that will be arranged in the provided order. Characters (img/characters) Images shown for the characters on the map. The upper part of images in front-view battles and the lower part of images in side-view battles will be cropped then displayed. Battlebacks (img/battlebacks1, img/battlebacks2) Images used as the backgrounds for the Battle Screen.Ī battleback measures 1000x740 in size, backgrounds in the battlebacks1 folder are primarily for floors, and those in the battlebacks2 folder are primarily for walls, and you can put these into any combination that you like in order to create your battleback. * Images used are the same size as in the previous version (VX Ace). A file can contain up to 20 blocks (100 cells). Animation Patterns (img/animations) These are primarily the images used for animations shown as effects in the Battle Screen.ġ cell contains an image that measures 192x192 in size, and 5 cells lined up horizontally are treated as a block which will be stretched vertically only as necessary, becoming 1 file. ![]() ![]() ![]() I am far too excited by this right now.All images will use the PNG format. After I finish the code and fix everything the way I need it, I will DL FRAPS and record a small videoĪlso, I will do a google search later for those terms. Hopefully it works as I plan and looks epic Once thats done I will upload a video for you to see them in action. I can go into further detail on its functions if you wishĪfter I get the testing done, and code a little more of my gravity feature (which was reliant upon images such as these - not going into much detail here). If you are wanting to have alternate layers though (as I am) the images have to all be the same size (like the ones you provided). If you have an image that is say 64*32 it will loop the image over the entire screen - like a scrolled parallax. Unfortunately, the linked script doesnt accomodate for alternative sized images. Even if I can only have one of my levels looking as cool as this one will - I will be satisfied. I have downloaded them and will begin placement and tests shortly, from the look of them though they will be perfect. You'll get better results if you go for "seamless patterns" or "seamless backgrounds". It's basically the same pic as the source, but with a very minor quality pass.Īlso, a tip: try not to google "parallax backgrounds". If anyone needs the non-layered image, here it is: Any further and you'll start to see the loss of quality in the pic.Īlso, please share a video to see the stuff in action, it sounds really cool. Easy peasy.Įach layer modification should hold its own if you decide to move the layers on top of it about 20 pixels up or down. Now, for the technical part - If the script you linked can manage the three separately while having three images of different sizes as sources, you can erase the four pixels I added in the top corners of the Mid and Top layers (both sides, 2 pixels each). Just to give a more accurate idea of what I am wanting to do.Ĭlick to expand.Well, this is my best shot right now, the RTP example you gave, but dissected, layered and retouched. I am sure if you wanted to make more smaller ones then people using the aforementioned high fantasy resources would be VERY grateful In order to do this correctly I need layers of things like 'grass', 'buildings' and 'clouds'.Īgain though, even though I am not currently able to use that image, I am sure there will be others that find it VERY useful. ![]() I am actually trying to use numerous layers to create the illusion of distance. There are also other fog type scripts that allow multiple parallaxes to be added and modified on the map. Doesn't do Scene_Map but if your able to code it in yourself it wouldn't be hard to do. HERE is a script that allows multiple backgrounds to be added (like parallaxes) into any scene. Unfortunately, it is too good for me to use (I'm looking for more of an RTP vibe - should have probably stated that, sorry :/)Īlso, yes, it is possible to have multiple parallaxes in vx ace, you need a script though. Vx ace should be able to use that image without any issues.

Pilsner is characterized by a light body, a hoppy flavor, and a typical ABV of around 4.5-5%. Pale lager is the most common beer in Germany and includes varieties such as export, Helles, and, of course, pilsner beers. But within those thousands of beers are some key, specific varieties of the drink that you should familiarize yourself with. It is said that you can drink a different German beer every day for 15 years before you need to have the same one again. Essentially, the monks modernized beer production throughout the Middle Ages, and it’s these medieval practices that are still often used today. Originally, beer in Germany was brewed in homes, but as the monks took over the responsibility of making it, they worked hard to improve the process, taste and purity. This brewery, Weihenstephan, is still operating today. The nation is thought to be the world's oldest beer-brewing country, with the earliest commercial brewery thought to have been in an 11th-century Benedictine Abbey. Germany produces a lot of the beer that its residents consume although the country does import some Belgium, French, Austrian, and Czech beers. They are heavy, handled vessels that sometimes feature levered lids, which are said to have originated from the Black Death to protect the beer from flies. A stein is a type of tankard made traditionally of ceramic of metal but more commonly today in glass. In bars, beer is typically served in a choice of 300 ml or 500 ml tulip glasses or in half-liter or full-liter steins. The average German consumes around 104 liters of beer per year. Germany is the third biggest beer-drinking country in Europe after the Czech Republic and Austria. The most popular alcoholic drink in Germany is beer, whilst the most popular non-alcoholic drink is coffee.īeer is a very important aspect of German culture What is the most popular drink in Germany? Beer, schnapps, brandy, and German wines such as Riesling are all enjoyed in bars, restaurants, and at home. In Germany, drinking alcohol is common among adults. Juice mixed with carbonated water ( Schorle) is a refreshing and popular choice, too. At mealtimes, locals drink juices such as apple juice, as well as sparkling water. But coffee is also consumed in the afternoon with cake during Kaffee und Kuchen, when it tends to have milk or cream added. Black filter coffee is typically enjoyed first thing and throughout the morning. What do they drink in Germany?īy day, Germans drink a lot of coffee ( Kaffee), although tea ( Tee) is becoming increasingly popular. The legal drinking age is 16 for beer and wine, but 18 for spirits or liquor.

Other diners were settled into equally un-restaurant-y furnishings ranging from wingback armchairs and button-back sofas to an elaborately-carved mahogany church pew. We followed the server past the wood and frosted-glass partition that once delineated the lobby from the teller stations and settled at an intimate four-top with upholstered parlor chairs on one side … and a Rococo love seat on the other. Another acquaintance was attending to her ninety-three-year-old mother-in-law-a Natchez grande dame dressed to the nines who, with a couple of old fashioneds aboard, was charting an uneven course through the dining room.Īfter a pleasantly social half-hour spent in small talk, our table was ready. It was a crowd that didn’t meet a stranger, and within five minutes we’d run into three or four groups with whom we were acquainted-Frankie’s is that sort of place.Īmong these was Natchez chef and culinary consultant Regina Charboneau, who had a hand in developing Frankie’s menu. A Jazz-age soundtrack evoked the spirit of the Roaring Twenties, and seating areas in the bank lobby-cum-lounge area were occupied by several generations of Natchezians, draped insouciantly upon chaise lounges and settled into armchairs in varying stages of congeniality. The bar dominating one flank of the circa-1826 Britton & Koontz Bank building glowed like a shrine. Inside, a Dionysian spirit of festivity was evident, silver and gold New Year’s Eve balloons floating about. It was a Saturday evening during Dry January the first time we visited Frankie’s on Main, but the patrons of Natchez’s newest, most eclectic bar and restaurant didn’t seem to be taking the popular New Year’s life hack particularly seriously. Frankie’s on Main in Natchez is the creation of Chef Frankie Muñoz and his parents, Marty Buchman and Cathy Muñoz-Buchman. ![]() You can throw meat for it to munch on for a few seconds-great for opening up a door-or throw a box just to bait it in an opposite direction for a few much-needed seconds. Of course, there are ways to distract it. The Kaernk is attracted to meat, and being a walking hunk of flesh, that means you're always a target. The Water Lurker appears throughout the story, and makes you scared of any water you see because of it. After the run-in with the Water Lurker the first time, that fear passes onto the player: now you're afraid of any water you see, and the game plays with that. "I think that's the first time you actually see water in the game, so every single time you encounter water again you're gonna think, 'Could the monster be here?'" It also feeds into another major mechanic of Amnesia: the protagonist's sanity, and his intense fear of the dark. "The idea was to instill fear so the monster is only like, when you encounter it for the first time, you sort of associate it with the water it's in," says Grip. During the development of a puzzle in Amnesia though, Frictional Games realized that the Water Lurker would be a silly name to have appear in-game, so according to Grip, writer Mikael Hedberg came up with the "official" name. Internally, Kaernk is referred to as the Water Lurker, which remains its most recognizable moniker. Probably the most benign monster ever in terms of visually." "What it actually is like in the game is that it's just, I think, it is a sphere that's red and we just said don't draw. It's just my water splashes, so I have no idea what it looks like," he says. In my pre-interview research, I even found a sketch that was labeled as concept art for the water monster on a fan-curated Wiki page. It was an early design in terms of Amnesia's development, with it being discussed at least two years before its release. The memorable splashes ended up being scary enough, but if there had been a "super big budget," Grip says the Water Lurker easily could have had tentacles squirming all the way out of the water, as if they were trying to grab the player. We have to figure out something simpler here." Grip wondered what the team could get away with, when splashes entered his mind. "Then when it came to actually making the monster, I was like Shit, we don't have time. That was the initial seed, having tentacle-something coming out of the water," Amnesia co-designer and co-founder of Frictional Games, Thomas Grip, tells me. So we wanted, or at least I wanted, something like that from the beginning. I think it was the first Star Wars movie when they're all in this waste disposal thingy and there's water and there's lots of garbage and there's tentacles coming up. It was actually inspired by, do you remember. "The initial idea was that there was supposed to be tentacles. ![]() It's petrifying.Īnd the monster? It's not even visible, and it's because of time constraints at developer Frictional Games. When you venture into the flooded archival room for the first time, it's easy to think, 'Okay, the coast is clear.' But soon though, you see splashing about. Its scariest monster is one that's become synonymous with it in the years since: the Water Lurker, also known as the Kaernk. In college, I fell into an accidental tradition with it: I would dive back in around Halloween time, play it for a couple hours, and then be too scared to continue until the next year.
