*i The Establishment Member # 6	written Sunday, October 29 2006 10:17 Profile #1 Well, good luck, but this really should go in general. Also, rather than a game of 20 questions, why don't you tell us about it first? -------------------- Your flower power is no match for my glower power!

XxX Apprentice Member # 7609	written Sunday, October 29 2006 10:23 Profile #2 Ok you want to hear about the game. Well in Xeon The Beginning You start off with 4 or 5 characters if you join "Doom" but if you choose to join the "Rebellion" you only 2 people. Still with me...OK You characters can be a Servile, a Shaper (he creates creatures and shapes weapons)... You there?

*i The Establishment Member # 6	written Sunday, October 29 2006 10:40 Profile #3 Two things: 1) You are hardly coherent. I have bits and pieces of words, but no really clear flow of thought. 2) This game sounds like fodder for copyright infringement. For now, I'll leave this topic open and give you a chance to address these issues. -------------------- Your flower power is no match for my glower power!

Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Sunday, October 29 2006 10:42 Profile Homepage #4 If you want to create a game that has some elements of Avernum and GF, use BoA. You can't quite get the GF engine, but you can definitely use GF graphics, and you won't actually be committing an illegal act, nor will you have to go through the effort of creating your own game engine, which is quite a hassle in itself. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

Arachnid</b> Warrior Member # 5302	written Sunday, October 29 2006 10:47 Profile #6 They are both moderators. The problem lies in the fact that you have done very little to explain whatever it is you are trying to do. If you are, as you appear to indicate, talking about the creation of some kind of game, it might help if you gave us the premise or better yet, gave us a reason to care. It may sound harsh, but you haven't given nearly enough information for any kind of opinion. EDIT: Oops. Accidently hit reply to early.

XxX Apprentice Member # 7609	written Sunday, October 29 2006 10:55 Profile #7 OK I will try harder to explain my whole thought process of the game Xeon, The Beginning. So when you start of you can either choose to join the "Doom" army as 4 or 5 privets which will go on "special" missions having to with fighting the Rebels, If you join the Rebels you get 1 or 2 Rebel adventurers who are fight for peace and harmony agaist the evil guy "Doom" (King Doom).

XxX If you take elements from Geneforge and Avernum and make a profit, Jeff Vogel will eventually find out. Jeff Vogel will then sue you for all the money you made. Since you'll have no money and some costs, you'll be in trouble. It's better if you just think creatively. -------------------- quote: Originally written by Kelandon Well, I'm at least pretty Posts: 1115 \| Registered: Sunday, May 15 2005 07:00
*i The Establishment Member # 6	written Sunday, October 29 2006 11:17 Profile #15 No double posting, please. Consider this your warning. It doesn't matter. If I decide to make a game that's a thiny veiled game based on Super Mario Bros. then Nintendo has a right to take away all my profits. It's called copyright infringement. Jeff owns the Shapers, Serviles, and all those creations. You cannot make money off of them without his permission. Not that you probably will anyway. You are barely coherent on these boards, I doubt your game would be much better. Also, the basic outlines you've given (King Doom) sounds pretty weak. -------------------- Your flower power is no match for my glower power!

Dikiyoba Councilor Member # 6600	written Sunday, October 29 2006 11:17 Profile Homepage #16 Because it is illegal if it borrows too many elements, that's why. Besides, if the game is going to be good enough to make people actually want to pay for it, the inspiration will have to come from you and not stuff that is exactly like what's already out there.

If I certainly cannot do you still think Jeff will mind and how can he sue me I think I'm a little young to be sued. Have you watched any of the court shows? Judge Judy, Judge Joe Brown, etc.? If you did, you'd know that ANYONE can be sued. Whether you're 2 or 22. It's just that, being so young, your parents would have to pay for it. Then you'd probably be grounded for next 1200 years. I do know where you're coming from though. In fact, I once was pondering doing the same thing you're attempting to do. Then I hit the age of 12, and snapped myself back into the real world. Trust me, even if you complete this project, it won't work. No matter how much daydreaming and scheming you put into it. That said, carrying on with this project is copyright infringement, which happens to be a criminal offense. It's no better then thievery, and, in a court of law, will generally be treated as such. -------------------- I tried to think of something witty to put here. Needless to say, I failed.

XxX Apprentice Member # 7609	written Sunday, October 29 2006 13:28 Profile #23 Yeah I am actually pretty fond of Judge Brown. What if I gave old Jeff all the money. I just like the game. XxX EDIT: OK I'm only...(Do I really wanna do this) 10 so what do you expect a huge master pice of graphical gaming. I am still working on names and stuff. Also I have ABSOLOUTLEY no idea how to create a game so I am learning with C++ which is hope-fully the one Jeff used.

Or else o'erleap. Law Bringer Member # 335	written Sunday, October 29 2006 13:36 Profile Homepage #24 I think all talk of copyright infringement and lawsuits is a bit premature. First you need to have actually programmed something. Graphics can come later. Do you know how to program? What have you programmed so far? How much planning have you done for the technical parts of this game? Anyone can come up with a plot and "borrow" mechanics from another game, but how much work have you done and how much work can you do? —Alorael, who is sure Jeff would be happy to take any money you made. That assumes, of course, that you make any money. Poor writing, poor plot, and stolen game mechanics are a poor recipe for success. Although you've actually given virtually no information about plot, so that may be an unfair extrapolation from lack of information. Posts: 14579 \| Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00
