What are you using to stream?

XSplit, it runs fine but when I try to authenticate my twitch account the authentication window opens does a couple rounds on the loading circle and then closes, I've tried with stream key, that doesn't work either.

[devil†zukin]

you could try using my thing if you want!

no ads & less delay than twitch too

[darkychao]

I'm holding a group call now, if anyone is interested in talking add/message me on skype. (my skype name is darkychao for anyone who was wondering.)

[KingTwelveSixteen]

• A talkhauser who is the bad guy (but can't be a boss until episode 4)

As for the Talkhaus member from episode three, they must willingly be quite evil for that episode.

I volunteer for evil villain duties. Just take my moon avatar and add a curly mustache of eviltm.

EDIT: By that I mean that I'll do it myself. Nobody else needs to do it for me to be the villain.

Here's some art stuff for this.

EDIT: wait what?

Hold on.

DOUBLE EDIT: There we go. I had them saved as paint files instead of GIFs. You aren't allowed to upload paint files to the talkhaus.

The moon of evil!

Does this work? Should I add an evil goatee or mess around with the hat some more?

EoW4 I swear I've uploaded this before...

[SAJewers]

Just a note for people:

- 4 EoW Cutscenes are done, and 4 Intro cutscenes are done.
- For the other cutscenes, they have everything written out, they just need to actually do them up, and they would like some people helping them in that.
- It sounds like with another body or 2, these can get done, and, considering the OW isn't finished yet, and I'm waiting for a number of Towns to be updated, there can probably be little to no delay on these.

i said i'd have this in like half a week ago but stuff happened

I think the problem with getting more people to do cutscenes is that nobody but the people doing cutscenes seem to actually know what making a cutscene for this game is like. All custom graphics messing around? Just vanilla stuff? Messing around excessively with events?

Nobody knows.

[Kil]

it was obvious 5 months ago these would never get done

just move on and finish the game

[Doctor Shemp]

Just to ask this again, is there anyone out there that particularly wants to see cutscenes in this game that isn't themselves involved in making them?

[Willhart]

Since everything is already written out, you can propably just copy the style from the other cutscenes. It would be more coherent if the resources like the font and characters were made by same person. The plot important cutscenes should have been done first though.

I like the ones done so far so I'll help implement some of these.

[Leet]

just gonna say you guys got a handful of cutscenes now but not too many, and if you make more but not as many as you had planned, you should try and make them appear semi-regularly not just stop partway through the game

in asmbxt, there were cutscenes near the beginning and then there were never any ever again. that was kinda... weird. its like, there's a plot, but its just a "set up the game" plot, not an actual story

[SAJewers]

I asked what was going on five days ago, and was simply told by Demolition he had just sent a message to darkychao regarding the final cutscene, and a day later Darkychao told me he had the flu for the past week and a half. I haven't hard a thing since.

This is really pissing me off, as I've heard nothing substantial from you guys, or have seen or received anything of merit. I know you guys are reading the forums, but it seems like you're actively me or this forum. If I don't hear or see anything substantial soon, then I'm axing the following:

- Cutscenes
- Plot
- Everything regarding the siblings, including the fights themselves
- Intro levels
- Towns
- Talkhaus NPCs
- Any and everything in any level that is part of the plot

Towns have no plot in them. Also onle of my levels levels is heavily sibling related and I am not remaking that. Intro levels are all done, but we may need to make hub place for unused talkhausers.

If anything axe the amount of cutscenes. I believe those will take way too long to make.

[Menshay]

Yeah, just don't axe Static Life please. Nor the other fully done sibling levels, asking for changes would only mean further delays and removing them would just be a major disservice to everyone involved in their creation.

I wouldn't see any issue in just leaving towns, siblings and the like in, even with little to no actual plot exposition inside the game itself: remember those old games with everything in the manual? I know that since NES Mario the standards have changed, but this isn't a professional game or anything like that (note that I don't equate "not professional" to "half-assed"). I don't really know about the intros, though, I guess it depends on how tightly they're related to the cutscenes.

[Willhart]

The intro levels I've played were just a single path with the name of the World somewhere on screen. No relation to the cutscenes since they were made separately.

[Axon]

- Everything regarding the siblings, including the fights themselves
- Any and everything in any level that is part of the plot

The siblings were in Johnson McCain before there was any plot. Their presence later in the game can simply be justified by the fact that their glass containers get broken during the boss fight (you can hear the shattering glass sound).

Also, I think the game should at least have the cutscenes that are already made.

[SAJewers]

OK, talking to Demolition right now. Looks like cutscenes are a go, and hopefully soon he'll dole out some cutscenes to people.

[SAJewers]

I just want to say I've received the SOW Cutscenes for World 5-8. Oh my god, these are amazing.

[Menshay]

Glad to hear that, at least. So what is missing right now?

[SAJewers]

I currently have the Beginning cutscene for Episode 1, the SOW cutscenes for world 5-8, and the EOW cutscenes for worlds 1, 4, 5, and 7. Last I heard from Demolition was that he and Darkychao were still talking about the Final Cutscene for Episode 1, and some time soon they would whip up some scripts for the other cutscenes and dole them out to those who volunteered.

I myself already told Demolition that I'm willing to do up the intro cutscenes for worlds 1 and 9, and I'm planning on doing them up this weekend and sending them off to him.

[Willhart]

SoW4 cutscene. I'll see if I have time to make another one tomorrow.

[Minnakht]

I made intro 3, so presumably I have a little interest in the SOW3 cutscene. Not making it, just knowing what's coming up in it - hopefully the level preceeding the cutscene doesn't clash with its contents.

[Holy]

I'm gonna try my hand at making the SOW3 cutscene.
Also, spelling corrections for everything so far:

SOW1:
nostalga -> nostalgia
dragned -> deranged

Kood's "let us haste" -> "let us make haste" (I think)
com here -> come here

SOW6:
vendeta -> vendetta
sepperately -> separately

SOW8:
Ive -> I've (Science: I'VE HEARD NOTHING FROM PANDAMONA BLAH BLAH)
dimensionss -> dimensions

EOW1:
interdementional -> interdimensional
artefact is a brit thing, right? Otherwise artefact -> artifact
dieing -> dying
goide -> guide
nearses -> nearest
Kood: "so I just touch it" -> "so if I just touch it"

EOW4:
hounour -> honor (unless them brits spell it different, but wouldn't it be honour) (science talking)
raveged -> ravaged (Navada)
ohters -> others (lakitu minion guy)

EOW5:
overloards -> overlords (unless that's intentional?)

EOW7:

Is ugly toad not a toad anymore?
