Heyho,

this is a demonstration video of the charactereditor of my game called 'Markside GP'. It's written in Lite-C within approx. 8 weeks (excluding a 4-week break for some university exams I had to learn for).

Please post your pros and cons in the following (dont post cons about the grahics. They are placeholders and have nothing to do with my art design which will follow soon).

Enjoy!

Cheers, Christian

Very Impressive. It looks like it comes with a good workflow. I can't wait to see it with "real" textures and models. Keep on working.

PS: Did you made yourself in that video ?

I dont really see any cons that I can think of now, it would be better to morph vertices on the face, but not necessary, there are only a few basic types of head shapes....so I think it is cool.

I think it would be also cool to add a "RANDOM" button to see what character would arrive by randome chance. You could also use such an editor to randomly generate characters for pedestrians, and each one could be unique. Very good job, I think also you should sell it to the community somehow.

Another feature to add would be to allow taller or shorter characters with different body shapes...

But let me not dimish from what you have made already...its a great tool for about any game!

You've spent too much time in the Wii's Mii Channel!

It should be possible to rotate the elements.

Also good to know that one can import custom textures!

As you don't want us to comment on graphics, I won't do that. Good work! Now show us the characters in the actual game

This looks very promising, the users interface for editing the character looks quite flexible but it doesn't need more complex elements like vertex manipulation and etc.
The style is like Error indicated Wii like but I like it sofar because it's simple and it seems FUN
Keep up the great work, can't wait to see the carts !!

Cheers

Frazzle

sorry but it's TOO much like the mii channel.

even the favorite color O_o
so I only can say: nice rip off.
thats not bad, I mean, I bet you wanted to rip off the mii channel

Nice to see such a thing made with 3dgs! - but *yawn* every little RPG offers such a thing (more attacking MII chanel than you heelx!).

Keep on good work!

you know what i want... and i know that you want this too

edit: oh and for yll of you who say rippoff:
i know something you dont, and be sure that this wont be possible with either the Mii channel or any ROG out there...

and THATS the real idea behin this i think^^

Very good work, Christian. Really excellent. I can't wait to see that with really good artworks... *thumbs-up* I really like the smooth way the camera moves.

Keep going!

wow, looks like loads of hard work. even in this placeholder state of work it is really impressive. i'm curious about the "import wizard"...
