Sano, the first one is way better, the second one is way too convoluted. What are those orange lines in the middle? You gotta keep it simple man, don't go too crazy.

@Yeaster: YES good to see your working on MMZ, those new charsets look great too! I like it!

Dummmm.........

I was wondering if it's really necessary to have.... a video of the default battle system. Like, did you code something amazing in it? or is it like "see my 3d dinosaurs lulz"?

Not taking a jab or anything, just asking since, you know, we all played the DBS a million times already.

It's typically done to gauge how people will respond to the chosen graphics, music, etc. Isn't that easy to understand?

Random image from an Untitled, DnD Style, side project. 8 Party battles, and you'll need them because monsters will hit hard, as poor Eltrian found out. Still trying to work out how I want the hud in battles, thinking of trying a vertical bar style with Status to the side of them, just so i can fit all 8 character stats onto teh screen at once.

EDIT: Screw the above, the HUD is fine, I'm thinking of changing the way damage is presented, for example a text box that shows over the hud, like in the normal battlesystem, but with the bars updating aswell.

@UPRC: 1 and 2 damage per attack? My 9999 mind can't take it!! But no, I actually like that idea. However the FFT-esque battle characters seemed odd in that positioning...Maybe it's just me

Yeah, I know. It's something that I'd like to fix if I could.. But it's hard to position them properly or to find monsters that fit their perspective.
