Reply to I hate my job... in Life, the Universe and Everything Elemental Forums

OP, I feel for you. I used to work this crazy job with crazy hours that sometimes didn't let me do "basic" stuff such as visiting the bank for days at a time. I got away from that, but now I don't have a debit card that I can use to order the collector's edition. Bah. Wish I could share my beta with you. I can't even get mine to work properly. :p [quote who="LightStar" reply="1" id="2698337"]If you hate your job because it interferes with your computer gaming needs, you need t

Reply to The Modding Guide in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

I can't get things to work at all. Only the Map Editor and the Tile Editor shows up and when I try to run them, I get a black screen that hangs. I'm going to try to reinstall everything before I start crying, though. :'( Props on how amazingly awesome Impulse:Reactor and the Mod upload/download looks, though. I was taken aback by how delightfully Elementalesque it all looked when I opened it up. It helps that I have an awesome avatar fit for the job. :p

Reply to [Suggestion] Monsters Shouldn't Be Friends in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

Monsters should be split up into several different factions, with different behaviours. At the very least, I can think of Animals, Monsters, Intelligent Monsters, Humanoid. Out of them, only Humanoids should attack and conquer cities, for example. Animals would usually avoid combat unless provoked and stay away from cities. Stuff like that.

Luckmann has downloaded all of them, and decides he doesn't like the names. He takes it upon himself to change the names of buildings, adds some cheesy particle effects and repacks them into "Luckmann's Uber Construction Pack", doesn't give any credit to Wintersong, then wins one of these contest.

[quote who="Peace Phoenix" reply="7" id="2694220"]Could you elaborate about what is exactly a canonical relation?[/quote]The game obviously relates to eachother in more ways than one. Themes, names; Kona, Draginol, Altar, Elemental, etc. But story-wise, there is no apparent relation. Compare it to how Warhammer Fantasy and Warhammer 40,000 relates - compare Orks to Orcs. Basically identical creatures with identical names and identical characteristics. They relate. But they don't canon

I understand why they do it. It doesn't mean I like it. There are many times I've been looking for something or just surfing around and finds a post somewhere that interests me. Usually, it's someone that wants help with something (believe it or not, I can actually be helpful sometimes) that I'm just qualified to help with. It can be anything. And then it wants me to register. Fair enough. And then it wants to know my

I have no idea why I'm doing this. "In the last age of our world, the lands of Elemental were lush and filled with magic. Mighty civilizations flourished and man did not war. Until the arrival of the Titans. Powerful beyond imagination, the Titans gathered all the world's magic and encased it within the Great Shards - crystals rooted to the heart of Elemental. Soon the Titans battled for control of their

Reply to Why are you rushing the game so much? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

The game appears to be coming together very quickly now, so if they can somehow keep this rate up, I don't think it'll need delaying. It's a real pity that it's either August or February, with such an enormous gap inbetween, but I don't think it'll be necessary.
