Graal Graphic making program

Xcessive54321 · #1 04-11-2005, 09:59 PM

They should make a graal graphic making program where you could make easy graphics for you levels, like they should make a button(s) called

-Chair
-Table
-Bar
ETC

and it will put that graphic or put it in the size of those, and you could hit a button three times and it will triple the size, but this would be useful for Graal Levelers and Gats

I don't think so.

Skyld · #3 04-11-2005, 11:30 PM

We call it "Adobe Photoshop". Or at least I do.

Rufus · #4 04-11-2005, 11:31 PM

Trying to get more then your moneys worth here? Invest in a Photoshop or even better, play around in paint.

Inspiration · #5 04-12-2005, 12:06 AM

Hey guys, this is actually a really good idea!

And while they're at it, they can make a feature that makes the level and scripts for you as well, and then automatically uploads it to the server of choice. That way, no one ever has to be creative or do anything themselves!

I'm for this idea 100432.111+12(2x-1)%

Not even photoshop, some stripped down paint program could make some graal graphics if your not lazy. Sounds pretty useless to me, when you could simply make your own colors.
It was a good idea, just not very useful I believe.

I think they should just add a program for creating a playerworld for you, so then you don't have to have any talent or do any work.

Excessive, I think you need to stop trying to dev, you use the forums as a way to get stuff rather than trying through trial and error to forge talents needed.

Perhaps your working on too much.

Xcessive54321 · #12 04-12-2005, 03:03 AM

well "LIFE" is more important then Graal.

What does "life" have to do with you having a bad idea, and being fairly incompetent in general?

Xcessive54321 · #14 04-12-2005, 03:14 AM

im saying they should make this for the people who dont have time for making programs, and i cant script so i cant make one.

What does making programs have to do with your idea? Make sense please.

So what you're saying then is, the Graal Online staff should create a program for every possible thing other people may be too lazy , or incapable of, doing themselves?

Xcessive54321 · #18 04-12-2005, 03:27 AM

i did, make a chair,tv,table,and a stero. but it took me forever. so i want it to put the original chair image, and you could divide it into 4 sides then put colors there,or doing a other design

Okay, thanks for incoherently ranting about something, but my question is unanswered.

Do you believe that it is up to someone else to create easy methods for you to do everything, because you are too lazy to do things yourself?

Xcessive54321 · #20 04-12-2005, 03:32 AM

like i said, i would but im too busy doing stuff like working out, doing work and more.

Okay great, then as stated before, perhaps you should indulge yourself in less activities.

If you do not have the time to do something yourself, it is not up to another person to do it for you, for the purpose of making your life easier. All a pre-defined graphic maker would do is encourage laziness and lack of creativity.

Xcessive54321 · #22 04-12-2005, 03:45 AM

... it was just a suggestion

Correct, and you made a similar suggestion before, and it was shot down the same way. So next time before you bother posting a suggestion, try to think of something that caters to the graal community as a whole, and not just to those who are too lazy to be bothered to do things for themselves.

Rufus · #24 04-12-2005, 03:54 AM

Solution - Open Level Generator, Put the tiles you need onto the screen, fill it with the water tile that only has 1 color on it, Press Print Screen and paste it into your graphics program then fill the blue with white. Sorted.

Crono · #25 04-12-2005, 02:13 PM

Actually I wish Paint could read Graal's "copy pastes" in level editor. I mean it's so much easier if you select a tile, say a chair, hit ctrl+c and was able to copy paste it into paint. Useful in my opinion...

Yeah i was talking about that, like something you could install for paint, say ctrl+c for chair, ctrl+t for table etc

Methril · #27 04-13-2005, 01:26 AM

Paint is utter garbage, and it has to be or else Microsoft would be facing multiple lawsuits from major companies for anti competitive behavior. Use Graphics Gale as it is the best program for making sprites.

It sounds as though all you're looking for is some sort of paint program that comes with Graal.
You can just open your images in paint, photoshop, paint shop pro etc and then edit them and it will be the right size. Or you can make your image and resized it accordingly.

That's too much work don't you understand?? Graal should make the entire level and all graphics for you.

LOL stop using scarcasim please

Refer to my previous post and reflect.

Xcessive54321 · #35 04-13-2005, 04:32 AM

Yeah its a good program lol

Admins · #36 04-17-2005, 05:24 AM

About the original topic:
We plan to work on the online editor in a few weeks, with that it will be easier to place npcs into the levels and eventually recolor or resize it. Currently that is already possible, but it means some scripting work and you first need to find the right graphics. For making new graphics you will need to use a good paint program of course. There is some new functionality in v3.1 and v4 to make some kind of drawing program, but it is more for making some quick fun image not detailed graphics with shading and transparency and such stuff.

My questions are:

Why do you all have to be SO NEGATIVE to an idea that would help him as well as others?
Why do you guy's have to be sarcastic about EVERYTHING?
If you have nothing good to say, why do you bother to talk?

I bet you, you guys will probably be negative to me as well, but why do I care. Just proof to me that you need something better to do.

The idea of making a program that totally generates an entire detailed level for you at the click of a button, complete with working scripts and graphics, would help him and others too. Do you suggest this program be made and utilized?

I don't know, ask the people who make these mindless suggestions and then get mad when people are negative to them.

So being positive about everything is inherently a "better" way to spend your time than being negative about them?

Was I wrong? The community will ALWAYS find something to fight about.

90% of the community are total idiots. (That's where you fit in)
10% of the community are alright.

Just because someone thinks of something that will benefit for them and for others doesn't mean its bad.

Stefan already said before he was making something like that, so ovbiously it is not a bad idea if they are creating it. You idiot.
