| So. Blazing References is a huge project for a singular editor. Those who want to contribute, I'm asking you to submit your own zany, wacky, or otherwise funny edits. Rules: 1. If there's a plot that I made in the instances of text offered, follow it. You can drain ALL seriousness, just don't deviate from the plot. (IE: One scene, Dimbo is explaining Megido, and the next, he's singing about how he became the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. BTW, this is an example of what NOT to do, as fun as it would be to see this.) 2. Complex "Commands" are loved. Don't worry about learning them, some of the important ones will be listed below. 3. These are quick and to the point, and some parts contain multiple scenes. Don't make a single scene an essay, as the game will reject edits that exceed a certain length. Also, lines, can't be too long. If your sentence is too long (The example scene shows the approximate max length), it'll just look like the Terrain Tutorial. 4. Remember, in contrast to Rule 1, some scenes just NEED to be serious. A witty reference/joke that floats over some people's heads will always be accepted in serious scenes. and jokes will be taken, so long as it isn't just a mess of memes slung into a singular scene. Commands: [.] - This is used to create pauses. Use this when you have to create a new line for your text. [A] - This indicates that the player has to click "A" in order to advance the text here. This should be used every 2-3 lines. [ToggleRed] - Gives you red text, much like that suspend screen. Just remember to use the command again when you're done trolling Battler. [ToggleSmile] - That's right. You can creepily grin at people untill they call the police. Much like any other toggle command, to stop using it, you have to use the command a second time. [ToggleBlinking] - Your character performing the amazing attempt at the world record for holding their eyes open. Just be sure to toggle the command again, before they hurt themselves. And if you want to learn any more... You'll have to learn them through observation. Here's an example of a scene. - Spoiler:
Face [0x16] is Yuki, so she's in the Mid Right section of the scene. Face [0x2F] is Dimbo, so he's in the Far Left section of the scene. Face [0x30] is Tazz, so... You should be able to tell where he is.
[OpenMidRight][LoadFace][0x16][0x01][OpenLeft][LoadFace][0x30][0x01] [OpenFarLeft][LoadFace][0x2F][0x01] Yes.[A] We have ventured from Caelin,[.] in Lycia, in search of someone.[.][A] [OpenMidRight] Lycia... That's the country beyond the mountains in the southwest, isn't it?[.][A] [OpenFarLeft] Yeah, but geography was never our strong[.] point.[.][A] you see, we work in Castle Caelin,[.] an information storage facility.[A] [OpenLeft] And the place got hijacked by a[.] troll who doesn't know how to[.] "PROFIT!"[A] [OpenMidRight] And how exactly did this happen?[.][A][X]
[X] Is a scene transition! Now, here's the scene that follows!
[OpenLeft] Somebody forgot to lock the door[.] when we went out on a company[.] picnic.[.][A][CloseSpeechFast] [OpenFarLeft] More importantly, our boss has set[.] his exit plan in motion.[.][A] If we can't reclaim Caelin by the[.] end of the month, he'll fire [ToggleRed]Megido[ToggleRed].[A] [OpenMidRight] Megido? [OpenLeft] It's a huge laser pointed at the internet.[.][A] Not exactly a pleasant experience,[.] having the ground melt beneath your feet.[A] [OpenFarLeft] It can cook some good S'mores, though.[.][A][X]
Now can you edit these following scenes? - Spoiler:
[OpenFarLeft] But we also learned all was not lost.[.] Her daughter yet lives.[.][A] We heard that she was living alone on the plains...[A][0x02] I... I knew it immediately.[.] You are the lady Lyndis.[A] [OpenMidRight] Why would you[.] think that...[.][A] [OpenFarLeft] Your resemblance to your departed mother is remarkable.[A] [OpenMidRight] What? Did you know my mother?[.][A] [OpenFarLeft] I'm sorry to say I never met her directly, but[.][A] I saw her portraits in Castle Caelin.[.][A] [OpenMidRight] To the rest of my tribe, I was always Lyn.[.][A] But when I was with[.] my parents...[.][A] When it was just the three of us, I was Lyndis.[A][0x02][CloseEyes] It's all so strange.[A] I was all alone in the world,[.] and now I have a [.][.....]grandfather.[A][.....] Lyndis... I never thought I[.] would hear that name again.[.][A] [OpenFarLeft] [ToggleMouthMove]...[.][ToggleMouthMove][A][X]
[OpenMidRight] [OpenEyes][.....] Wait![.][A] That bandit! He called me[.] Lyndis, too![A] [OpenFarLeft] What?[.][.....] How could he have--[.][A] [OpenLeft] ...He was a henchman of[.] Lord Lundgren, wasn't he?[.][A] [OpenMidRight] Lundgren?[.][.....] Who's that?[.][A] [OpenFarLeft] He's the marquess's younger brother.[A] Everyone assumed the lady[.] Madelyn was gone forever.[.][A] This made Lord Lundgren[.] heir to the marquess's title.[.][A] [OpenLeft] To be blunt, milady,[A] your existence is an obstacle to your granduncle's ambitions.[A] [OpenMidRight] That's-- But I have no interest[.] in inheriting any title![A] [OpenLeft] Unfortunately, your granduncle is[.] not the sort of man to believe that.[A] I believe the attempts on your life will persist.[A] [OpenMidRight] What should I do?[.][A][X]

| I'll actually try this... Wait a moment... Wait, you want the story to be kept the same? Because I don't know the whole story... EDIT: OH, I remember now, give me some time. | |

I could have edited more, if I knew who were the villains (By that I mean the EDITED villains) | |

| Pretty good editing for a first attempt, but when I said "following scenes"... I literally meant they followed the two example scenes. Here's my only complaint: The whole nobility plot was trashed, much like how Garfield is the replacement for Lundgren. He's the... troll who can't "PROFIT!!!" However, I never really provided much information regarding plot (I was more eager to share some jokes for upcoming Supports) so, all in all, those complaints were moreso based on my terrible explanations. | |
