Sorry for my lack of activity here the last few days - I was out of state for a wedding. I am also starting my new job tomorrow so I will attempt to update/evolve when I can, but might not be around a whole lot. These games are always amazing because of the community, not the game leader (though I like to think I help).

I am making this a sticky so we can put all ideas/discussion/questions into one thread so I don't have to sort through individual games to find said things.

I want to start by suggesting everyone pop over to the wikia and edit when they can. I know we don't have a lot of players now, but I fear one day a game may reach page 15 and all will be lost.

http://evol.wikia.com/wiki/Evol_Games_Wikia

GMS created this and to my knowledge is the only one who had edited anything (this is an apology from me as well).

So, let the discussion commence!

So what's this world's name?


eeb60c No.687

>>679

You know, I have thought of this and nothing good has come up. Honestly, I didn't think we would make it this far when we started. I was thinking something with "nub" in the name.

>>687

I have a few Ideas:

Nubterra

Nubious

Nubherus

Nubgia

Nubbery

Nubara

What do you think?


52a308 No.697

>>696

I like nubterra.


d46f61 No.708

>>697

I agree. It's simple and says "world of nubs" basucally. Nubterra it is.


3337a8 No.760

How would one post? I would like to help be an archiver (now that I have some free time), but I don't know if there are any rules to posting.


125561 No.764

>>760

On the wiki? Not really, just try to follow a tangible pattern.

Jeez, guys. Thanks for keeping things alive for me! I want to apologize again for my absence. Newborns are a lot of work! (who would have thought?)

Luckily I am getting a rhythm with my schedule and you should be seeing more of me, if nothing else in the no description threads.

I will try to make a few events happen this week, and I would expect more updates on week days.

Thx bro

Would it be fine if in the future a new game is hosted on a different planet but same solar system?

Yes.

I overlayed the map onto google earth. Cool, but looks pretty low quality.

Sorry for shitty video quality.

> but looks pretty low quality.

As in stretched and weird, to clarify.


eeb60c No.902

I love it. I'm wondering if we should add poles to it.

I'm a terrible cartographer.


125561 No.904

>>902

I don't think the problem is the map or the cartographer, just that it's not meant to go onto a globe.


125561 No.905

>>904

sorry, isn't


eeb60c No.906

>>904

Yeah, fair enough.

Can i or we make a map evolution for the little archipelago in the map to make a detailed one?


eeb60c No.928

>>927

Go ahead. Maybe we can make it a project for all the continents.

Hi, uh, /monster/ here. Important question: are lewd threads allowed?


a99c84 No.936

>>935

No, not at all, but I appreciate you asking first.

So far, every creature thread has started with a fairly simple, mostly monochromatic blip.

I know that this helps promote diversity, because the image is quite easy to modify: but as an experiment, I would like to start a thread with fairly detailed creatures that don't resemble things from Earth very well.

Here is the image I've come up with so far (I'm planning on adding a 4th, if approved).

So, can I make it?


eeb60c No.948

>>946

>So, can I make it?

Absolutely. I do find that the more complex a creature is, the less inclined one is to modify it, but you are more than welcome to attempt it.

Where in our world do you plan on hosting this game?


6eb3e3 No.949

>>948

tell me a so-far uninhabited area of land&sea, and i'll take it. i'll configure which species prefers which topology when I give an open explanation.

I made the creatures fairly detailed, but still left a lot of room for improvement. This might still deter the paint beginners, but based on some of the drawings I've seen here, there are people more than capable of building on these.

I'll probably also modify the middle creature to look a little less Earth-like; and i'm currently thinking of a winged creature for the 4th.

Oops, forgot my trip last time.

Take the crab-shaped island. I colored it pink. I was going to color the rest, but couldn't do it with the fill tool.

Your creatures already look great and a winged creature sounds cool too. I'm looking forward to this game.

Awesome. Thanks.

It'll probably be about 19 hours before I start working on the 4th creature. gotta sleep and work. But just to show off a progress pic, here's the new second creature.

For archiving purposes use "screencaptor":

www.donationcoder.com/Software/Mouser/screenshotcaptor/

screencaptor has a scrolling window capture option that will automatically scroll and capture from any selected window.

when you press the scrolling window option you can select a window and press ctrl+click which will open a menu where you can begin the scrolling capture (option 3)

This will open a menu from which you can alter some settings - usually nothing needs to be changed.

You can try the test option, it will tell you what might work.

Now you are ready to capture and edit the final picture…

most important features are the top and bottom margins which will remove any extra stuff(cropping)

If there is a double capture (or more) at the bottom of the same thing "trim and show" vert will remove that.

If you press 100% it will show you the full size and make editing easier.

things at the top and the bottom like the url bar and taskbar can be removed by increasing "Top" and "Botm"

It will be easier to stitch 2 frames together if you look between them and try increasing "Top" or "Botm" until text/images align.

That's it - it should cut time by a lot compared to printscreening chunks at a time.

Scroll bar and extra stuff at top or bottom should be easy to remove in paint or w/e

Holy hell. I was thinking of doing some serious screen captures this week, this should make life easier.

Anyone on here anymore?

I'm not lately because of the inactivity even though I know that's really counter-intuitive

I want to be, but I have no ideas, and no-one's really updated much, so no new ideas are sparking my imagination either. Hopefully activity will grace this board once more this year.

Greetings to any idle creators.

I was wondering if I could transfer my EvoGame to this thread, since it kind of lost traction on /tg/. Already, have a bit of history and time spent to it, and I kind don't want it to be for nothing.

That would be amazing. I'm actually still shocked there are still people posting.

So sorry for my inactivity lately - life is always cray. I wonder where you all went……


05bad4 No.1095

I'm still watching


da975e No.1096
