Yeah I'm more of a cartoonist. I haven't had enough experience with realism and life drawing to compete with all that. Or even try really since all my time has been going towards finding a job since I just moved to a new city. Very nice work, that artwork is very impressive.

I like the idea of using images to help with background, I've always had trouble with backgrounds. If you have time would you be willing to offer tips on colouring? I have a general idea that you layer on colour and then reduce your brush size to define things more, but I don't really know the details. I'm always trying to learn.

Yes, we will do it like that. I just wonder where cheap shot disappeared.. Anyone seen him?

I've been in the middle of a city move/ job search.

Exactly -- It's chadz's mod, all the items, everything, in it belongs to him. He owes Gawin nothing. Therefore it would've served the aforementioned person better to ask nicely.

c-RPG is a free mod.

So in a made up situation, if say you did a lot of trading on the market place, and one day you find out that chadz had taken all your items and gold or even deleted your account because a number of trades ago, unknown to you, a stolen item had passed your hands in an innocent seeming manner. You wouldn't be mad because it's acctually chadz's account right? You must have spent days if not months grinding gold and experience to get those heirlooms and things for chadz.

Damit I wish know about this contest sooner, I would have done something very cool. Hey for the cRPG comment go with, Choose your Warrior Path.

You are very free to. Just say you are working on something. The OP extended the deadline so kajia could enter, so go ahead. I think I might start on a new one as well to try and compete. I rushed my entry and did it in the last few hours before the contest was supposed to end so I think I could come up with something more professional with more time.

Edit: Also I thought of a more appropriate tagline. "CRPG: There's always a place for you. Unless you're ranged."

You get hit by throwers? Damn you must be awful. Throwing is one of the most useless things to make a build out of, or especially add to a build.

bah. For every happy person in crpg, there are at least 2 people equally unhappy. Its a natural law.

It helps if you don't tell people to be unhappy out of spite, but yes. The way it is.

Okay, if i wanted to go throwing heavy axe + sheild, what build would i use for that? would i want a seconed different 1 hander?

Throwing axes aren't very good anymore since they do cut and cut is worthless against armour now. You'll find yourself unable to kill plated dudes unless you have 9 or 10pt. (never do 10pt, doesn't work anymore). I have 9 and even at nine it takes 4 or 5 to kill most plate dudes. Since they fly so slow and are so easy to dodge, you usually don't get a chance to put more then one into them, two if you're lucky. Then you die.

It's a shame because I really like heavy throwing axes. I'd say try hammers but they're ungodly heavy. The higher tier pierce stuff is expensive and very hard to upkeep, but it's the only weapons that you can bring and not have there be people you can't kill.

Whatever you do, athletics is much more important then it used to be. I used to go the pure throwing build, 30/9-12, but it's not as effective anymore. I'll be retiring soon to work up to a minimum of 5 athletics. 3 doesn't cut it when every dude in plate can prance around and dodge projectiles like a ballet student.

Besides other ranged being an obvious counter, the most effective counter to archery is a fast dude in plate. Kinda funny. While a shielder will be in less risk, their shield will probably break eventually and they can never hope to catch an archer. A roided up tincan sprinting toward an archer while zig zagging gets an easy kill 8 out of 10 times I'd say. Dodging ranged is so easy after the reduced missle speed that zig zagging is usually enough since you can see the arrow coming. And if you do get hit? Well you're wearing plate, and most bows are cut. Not happening. Good luck archer.

Yeah. Any systems put in place would punish the wrong people and be abused. While everyone wants a way to discourage intentional TKers and careless and wild 2hand/pole spam that causes a lot of annyoing TKs, it would be the nail in the coffin for archers and throwers. Missle speed is so slow that team mates run into the path of your projectiles before they can make it to your target. Starting to wonder what the point of being ranged is in the first place with all these changes being made, forcing everyone to get into melee, bows or not.

Taking away our multi every time some idiot on a horse charges infront of a bank of archers, or some dude with a bec gets hit while jumping and spinning in circles around my target? Having a hard enough time affording ammo upkeep already.

Suggestions Corner / Re: Make ladders undestroyable by owner's team
« on: September 09, 2011, 11:53:10 pm »
On the 90 degree idea:  What if someone on the attacking team (accidentally or otherwise) places a ladder parallel to the front of a door so the ladder passes 90 degrees and settles in a way that blocks off the middle of the doorway making it impassible for the attackers?

How likely is that? First off, the person who did it would probably be banned. Second of all, how many maps have a single choke point that could be blocked with a ladder that passes 90 degrees? There is almost always a way around, especially on battle maps. Usually several. I don't see how it would become a problem. Most attempts to grief team mates would end in the ladder just breaking, and anyone getting the ladder to go past 90 degrees, people could just climb up it, or go another route while the offender is being banned.

I'm not sure what the minimum angle the ladder needs to be at for people to walk up it, but maybe make that angle the no break point instead of 90 degrees.
