[WIP] Final Fantasy-esque Menu

Here's something I've been working on and off at, it's nothing special, just want some opinions. I've been wanting to make a turn-based server exactly like Final Fantasy but never had any scripting support so I kinda just made it for fun.

Edit: I did not make the bodies in the menu, I simply snatched them from some avatars on the forums for a place holder.

A good quality scripter is hard to find, and I'm sure you know this.

I don't want my project put together like crap basically is what I'm saying.

If I could script I could make everything myself, but unfortunately I lack that skill. I used to be able to understand GS1, but I never tried to pick up GS2.

Sorry, no.

I don't typically lose myself.

If you posted in the forums and told a bit more about the server I may well be willing to help.

You're taking my message far too seriously. I meant in the general public. Since you script it doesn't apply to you, but I was referring to people that need help with projects.

I'm on my work computer right now, but at my house I have a pretty detailed list of how the game will play out, i.e parties, dungeons, world map functionality, magic, classes, weapons, quests, quest givers, etc...I'm still working on the storyline, but I prefer to start from the end to the beginning. Sounds odd, but it gives me the ability to make story-specific events much more creative.

I personally prefer menus to be simplistic, but if I continue to work on it I'm sure I'll add something to spiff it up a tad more.

I was actually going for that approach, I thought it gave it more depth.

If you like, forum PM me your ideas and I will more than likely help you out-- what I have heard so far sounds very cool, right now I have no scripting job anyway.

All I've been doing recently is making the mother of all pointless mudlibs ...

I'm glad you have experience with mudlibs, because for this project I'm pretty sure we'll need them with the huge amount of items I want implemented.

I also did see an enchanting script somewhere on the scripting forums, I really liked the idea of that.

Yeah, I will PM you my text document of ideas tomorrow or the next day.
