One idea I was toying with was the random modifiers for the enemies in some quests.

The idea is to have a list of modifiers (positive and negative) and whenever an enemy is encountered, we randomly decide whether we add a modifier or not and if yes, then a random modifier is added to the enemy, either increasing or decreasing the enemy stats (health, strength, ...)

Some modifiers I've been thinking about are

Sick -2 health

Angry +2 strength

Frightened -2 strength

Thick Skinned +2 armor

and so on

So depending on the random modifier selected for the enemy, the enemy would either be more powerful or weaker than the normal ones in the quest.

For example, in the wolf quest, one wolf would just be "Wolf", another would be "Angry Wolf" and yet another would be "Frightened Wolf".

Adds a bit of variety and randomness within each quest ;)

PS: Couldn't find any bugs yet in the latest version v0.15 :)

Although there is one that might be a "feature". Even if I lose a quest, the quest gets removed from the blackboard and is replaced with another quest. Not sure if this was intended.

hey :)

i'll definitly give this idea a try! it's an amazing thought - why didn't i had that ;)

as for the strength effect i think i have to de-/increase the roll-on attribute for 'do i hit?', cause modifying the damage itself would cause some trouble with low damage dealers ;)

But still - that's an amazing idea! i'll add it to the second posts idea collection :D

as for the 'feature': it really is both :P there should be additional code for leaving the quest on the board if you fail it, but isn't it just natural for you not to get this quest again? :silly:

did you mean 'Eden Project' for PS2? :D

Weapon Wheel

I recently thought about the weapon wheel thing for advantages / disadvantages in fights.

Here you go:

I don't know if the bare hand > bow thing is right, but a mage has an advantage against an archer. And without any weapon you may be able to dodge better, if you see where the shot is coming from?
[Android Apps and Games] gladson1976:
Some things that would be nice to have are,

1. Single handed and double handed weapons.

2. Shields.

3. Ranged weapons.

4. Ability to wield two weapons if they are single handed weapons.

5. Random enemies (max one or rarely two) in non violent quests (clock, treasure, book, ...) who will not be visible until you bump into them.

6. Random unique/special quest rewards (weapons, armor, ..)

7. Option to sell items you don't need (I've got a sword and later a greatsword and I don't need the sword, but am stuck with it)

PS: Thought of changing the player and enemy markers (thought they were overlaid on the map). Didn't realize they were part of the map. You might want to think of changing them to overlays (if possible).

[Android Apps and Games] Sh4itan:
Well,

finally i got something more to do ;)

for your ideas:

1. never really thought about it, but jeah, i should do this.

2. this would depend on point 1. So this will follow later

3. this is already mentioned in the 'weapon wheel' ;)

4. don't know if i should do this, for balancing reasons. maybe later

5. already thought about this, will be part of the next updates

6. i'll have a look at this, but for balancing this would not be that perfect

7. thought about this long ago. But some other stuff was more important :P will be part of the next updates

so for your ps:

i never thought about someone to decompile my application ;) for now this will be how it is, but i'm going to rewrite the whole code using the unity engine (not for 3D right now, but for performance issues). Don't know when this will happen, but it will :D
[Android Apps and Games] gladson1976:
Well, I just wanted to change the player and enemy markers in the map, since I have trouble distinguishing them on some maps (I have a small 3.0 inch screen). Guess that will have to wait ;)
[Android Apps and Games] gladson1976:
One thing thats been bothering me is that there is no penalty for death, which makes it quite easy to get full health without spending anything.

Let me explain, whenever I'm low on health after a quest, all I have to do is find a quest thats i dont want on the board (really hard quest :) ), select it and then die in the quest. I get full health and the quest is also removed from the board. So full health for free.

Penalties I had in mind were,

1. Start off with minimum health after death (1 health, you have to use health potions to get full health).

2. Lose a certain amount of gold for each death. If not enough gold is available, start off with minimum health.

3. Start with full health, but lose all items and gold (this may be a bit extreme).

Sent from my SK17i
[Android Apps and Games] Sh4itan:
You mean something like experience penalty or gold loss? :fingers-crossed:
[Android Apps and Games] gladson1976:
Yes. Either those or starting off with lowest health

Progress so far

Well,

compared to the very beginning of this project, i made huge progress so far. But for now, you should've noticed there was no version after 0.15 for weeks now.

I just wanted to make a statements for this period. It's not like i stopped it, but i got my fingers on a BlackBerry Z10 and i f**king love this phone! Unfortunately it does not support Java on it's own an the apk convertion is a little crappy...

BUT: Unitiy 4 made a huge step! They released a BETA state of a BlackBerry compiler for almost every Unitiy project! So for now there will be no update for the next time. I got my fingers on the BETA build and for now i'm going to rewrite my whole project. It will be C# i think, cause Java isn't fully/directly integrated in Unity. It may be hard work and f**king lots of it, but i'm doing this to provide this game for more than one platform! So i'm going to use Unity as the base for Android and BlackBerry development, maybe later even iOS, but i don't know... I don't want to pay 99$ per year just to publish an application for free :P

So: Don't worry, i'm going to continue this game! But i'll need time to completly convert my progress i've done so far...

Be Patient!

Sh4itan
[Android Apps and Games] gladson1976:
Wooooooow! Go Unity :)

Waiting for the next new build :fingers-crossed:
[Android Apps and Games] Sh4itan:
Sorry for this one...

Damn... Never thought about how to correctly disappoint others...

So i'm going to write this one directly:

I'm not going to convert this game to Unity. Not cause i don't want to, but the last 3 months showed me how much work it is to completly convert code to a base i've never used before. But the most important thing is i don't really have the time to do it.

The point of it is:

I drop the idea of Unity

for now

BUT i'll continue my work! It may not be Unity, but i'll continue development just for Android right now.

I'm sorry to disappoint everyone for this step, but better to have progress than nothing to happen, right?

Regards,

Sh4itan

PS: Keep Unity in mind. I won't drop this completly, but for now i don't have the time.
[Android Apps and Games] gladson1976:
Thanks for the update :)

Its been really frustrating waiting for an update :silly:

As they say, better the known devil, than the unknown angel ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Sh4itan:
Story?

Well,

for the last days, weeks... nah whatever, for the time passed since my last post i tried to work on the storyline, but it looks like my imagination shat into my brain while saying 'nope, no story for you' :silly:

It's been very hard to think of something as good enough to be epic, at least awesome...

I'm on the way to translate it right now and i'll post a part of it later, just to get some feedback about it.

Regards,

Sh4itan

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
I don't know about rooting, but you are definitely S-OFF. That triangle means that you have stock recovery and not a custom one. Probably before selling it, the owner flashed a RUU, so I am guessing that you don't have root access either.

Yes, being S-OFF allows you to flash CWM or 4ext recovery. From there you can flash whatever you want. :good:

Would anyone buy a device which was a merge of the Galaxy Camera & the Galaxy Note ???

I would !!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Johev:
Yeah a nice utopic idea, but with the current technology you might as well grab a brick to your ear. The battery would have to be huge, I know the full HD recording sucks battery like crazy and just look at how thick the Samsung camera is. Now imagine this with a 5.5 inch screen and you'll see how that would not work,

I would already love if the camera could also be used as a phone. That way I would probably get the Note 2 and my wife would keep the Camera, as she loves taking pictures of everything. Too bad it's just a fancy camera with Android on it, and only time will tell if it is worth it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Final5k:
Samsung should allow simcards to be put in the Galaxy Camera like what they did in their Samsung W880 (http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_sch_w880_amoled_12m-review-398.php).

I'm certain if they did this, the Galaxy Cam would be the most serious rival to the new iphone as the hype is already here for the Galaxy Cam! They would only need to advertise it as a smartphone camera shooter like what Nokia did with their 41mpx pureview.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Aitch:
I think the Camera is a great idea - if the next generation really improves the quality of the sensor it would be almost perfect for everyday photography.
[HTC Desire S] Bewinxed:
Hey guys, I've installed the latest ICS MIUI which seems to be based not on AOSP but on an HTC based (alas about +200mb in size) which leaves some HTC sense features behind (like magnifier, camera) personally i think this is the best thing that ever happened XD it's so stable and stuff and it even has internet passthrough! ouo

So what's up with that? i thought HTC's bases weren't as open as to lay out a whole MIUI flavor on them? is this gonna be the norm from now on? (i really hope so!)

Thanks! ouo
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Recently (since ICS) all official Chinese MIUI ROMs are being based on stock ROMs (TouchWiz, Sense etc) instead of AOSP (like CM9). This is because it's more stable this way. Still, unofficial builds like the JB ones from MIUI.us are based on JB since there will likely be no official updates ;)
[HTC Desire S] superkid:
One word, aosp based are better, htc based are them being lazy and packing changes to official builds.
[HTC Desire S] finistere:

So, if I get this right, from now on MIUI will be not much more than a few cosmetic changes and a different launcher, with no real "progress" between HTC releases? Sounds like a dead end to me...

Hi HOX users,

Not sure whether there is a topic or post related to what I am about to ask.

But what are the differences between all the CM10 roms?

EternyCM10, Alpha versions, endeavoru versions, Domination, IceCold and Pana (this is more the tablet IPAD theme)

There are minor details that are different, if anyone could share what they know??

I mean, are there big differences between all the CM10 that are created? (I appreciate all of them) Coming from Sense base, is there a way to have my contacts with facebook pictures again? (is facebook sync app from Playstore the only solution?)

Thanks !
[HTC One X] Awt67:
I use Domination CM 10 and it different from the rest because it use features cherry picked from other CM 10 roms and allows for more customisation. I must point out that this still an original CM 10 mod built and maintained by Owain, credit where credit is due.

I'm having a variation on that. I have the 10.1v and was just updated to 4.0.4 OTA last week.

I'm not tied to a carrier so I have no 'supplier' to turn to and Sammy isn't too good on support.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
VOIP is just never going to be as consistent or useful as the regular cell network calls, especially if you're talking about calls over HSPA+. Its unfortunate but it is how it is right now. Any VOIP solution you find will be a convoluted hack to help you get by if you're close to your monthly usage limit, and really shouldn't be relied on as your main source of calls. Don't get this plan expecting to make 800 minutes of calls every month using VOIP. The $30 T-Mobile plan is a

fantastic

value if you truly don't make a lot of calls (or have a land line at home), but its definitely not for everyone.

Hop over to a plan with unlimited calls if you need to make a lot of calls every month. Straight Talk $45, Net10 $50, Simple Mobile $50, T-Mobile $60/$70 are all good options, and are still drastically cheaper than carrier plans.

If you're interested in VOIP though, they've dove into it for dozens of pages here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1646755
