  1. "Dragon Quest: Your Story" seems like a nice movie adaptation from "Dragon Quest V: The hand of the heavenly bride".

    It will probably take some time before it is available in Europe.

  2. A colleague recently linked a cool AI that performs speech synthesis using famous voices such as Spongebob, Yami Yugi, Sonic, etc: vo.codes

    So you can make them say anything you want, though the quality sometimes leaves something to desired.

      Go to Neil DeGrasse Tyson and make him say "I'm Batman". You'll actually realize he has a voice that makes you believe anything he says. ?

  3. Came across a Kickstarter for "Kindred Fates", a sort of Pokémon clone. It looks interesting.

    According to the planning it will take some time before it will get released though.

  4. Card maker update: Longer effects should now suffer less from large jumps in font size.

    The font size is now decremented in smaller steps to try make it fit. As a result it might find a slightly larger font size that still fits.

    As the steps are made using absolute value, relatively large jumps in font size can still occur. But at that point I'd argue that your effect gets too long.

  5. Finished a +10 merge project in Fire Emblem Heroes today: Felicia.

    So I now have a +10:

    • Kana (M)
    • Marisa
    • Matthew
    • Lyon
    • Cormag
    • Tethys
    • Felicia (mentioned above)

    Now to decide who to work on next. I could use some green units…

      Something tells me you like SS lol

      I've begun my 5th (Ashnard) recently myself.

      Sacred Stones was my first entry in the series, which could be part of the reason for liking it. There are some other units from that game I'm working on, but I don't have enough copies yet; Ross is currently stuck at +5.

      I'm sort of curious which other units you have built, and if they indicate a preference similar to my units.

    3. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      tbh they're not super indicative of my preferences. They're a combination of "I like them" and "I have enough to +10" and "I want this type of unit at +10.

      Peri, Maria, Young Azura, and Marisa

      Azura was cause I wanted a +10 Dancer unit and had a bunch of grails.

  6. Looked into an issue with the card maker, where Microsoft Edge would not render the (custom) check-boxes.

    It appears that said browser does not abide to the standards for where to look for a (relative) resource. This means that it looks in a different location than it is supposed to.

    Now to figure out how to solve it, without breaking something for the other browsers...

      Thank you magic man.

  7. Recently been playing with the Godot Game Engine.

    It supports the creation of cross-platform 2D and 3D games, and has a decent editor for graphical user interfaces so it could also be used for "regular" applications.

    So if you some of you are interested in creating games, you might want to check it out.

    I'm unfortunately drawing a blank on what to create with it.

  8. Recently been thinking that the card maker needs a mascot of sorts. It would be featured on help pages, warning/error messages, and potentially serve as logo.

    Don't really have an idea what it would look like though.

      Hosting a competition to determine a mascot could be a fun way to get the community involved with the card maker. As I'm planning to bring back theming to the card maker, some top picks could each get their own theme. My only fear is that the community picks a mascot that I feel is hard to incorporate (far too detailed for example).

      You could pick the winner after all it is your card maker.

  9. The card maker has been updated, so it better integrates with the design of this site.

    You should still be able to access any automatically saved card you were working on, by heading over to the "old" site.

  10. The card maker can generate a random serial number for your card.

    Furthermore, a rarity option is added for card with "gold" lettering.

  11. The card maker now supports the creation of Skill Cards.

  12. The incorporation of the card maker into this site is being finalized, and should be ready for the site's anniversary.

    As some code has been changed, it not unthinkable that issues might occur. Clearing the cache might sometimes work in that case.

  13. The Neo New Card maker should now show checkboxes in Microsoft Edge.

    Support for the different themes has unfortunately been removed, since it was related to the cause.

    It might get enabled again in a future version.

  14. Today I got enough Divine codes to get the third unit of a path; I went for Awakening/Fates.

    Now to decide who wants Owain's "Blue Flame" and "Wrath". I'm thinking either giving it to Sharena, or my +10 Marisa.

  15. Today I got trapped inside the bathroom (of a vacation bungalow) because the lock on the door malfunctioned. The hinges of said door were removed to open it the other way. 

    Luckily help was nearby, so the entrapment didn't last too long.

  16. (Fire Emblem Heroes:) Got a "Lucina: Brave Princess", "Ike: Brave Mercenary" (4-star focus), "Yarne: Timid Taguel", and "Edelgard: Adrestian Emperor" from the golden week celebration summoning tickets. Very satisfied with those results.

  17. (Genshin Impact:) The Acquainted Fates from levelling up characters, as part of v1.2, yielded me my second Diluc. (The first one was a weird looking Klee.)

      With only Xiangling and Zhongli as currently playable characters that wield spears, you don't really have much use for spears; especially when you consider that the latter is not available anymore (for the foreseeable future). So it is understandable that you aren't too hyped about the gear.

      i have zhongli and he's my main unit, but i build him dps despite everything and i've already invested into a crescent pike. but hey it's cool to have it i guess. now i can have two legendary weapons i never use :'D

  18. Been playing around with an AI that turns a "rough" sketch into something better looking.  Progression.png

    Picture shows the initial sketch and a few iterations.

      Try to use colored areas rather than an outline. A more descriptive prompt might also help. Do you want a realistic dragon, or rather a cartoon one?

      Yeah I mostly just threw some old art I tried to do on DS Pictochat cause it's basically only time I ever tried to art lol

      But that's pretty great

      You don't even have to limit yourself to paintings/drawings; You can also turn it into a picture of a plushy.

      "Give that wolf a banana, before it eats my grandma". Interesting song text… though with the various songs in their native language there might be some other weird ones that fly completely under the radar.

  20. Got some very nice results on the Legendary Remix banner on the way to the guaranteed 5⭐ summon (Fire Emblem Heroes):

    • Siegbert: Future King
    • Ryoma: Supreme Samurai
    • Lyon: Demon King
    • Robin: Fell Vessel
    • Hríd: Icy Blade
    • Ephraim: Legendary Lord (guaranteed 5⭐)

    Also got 2 "Knoll: Darkness Watcher", only one more is needed for him to reach +10.

    1. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      I've debated +10ing Knoll mostly because most of the red tomes that are plausible to +10 I don't have much interest in and he was the one I liked most.

    2. Yemachu

      Yemachu

      Already had a +10 Lyon, who has a similar stat-line (and preferred weapon), so Knoll doesn't really do anything special for my barracks. Not that it matters; I like the Sacred Stones cast, and he could still be useful for modes like Arena Assault.

      Building a green mage would have been more practical, as I don't have any merged beyond +3 (Boey), but most do not really stand out to me, and the ones that do tend to be 5⭐-exclusive or seasonal. Might finish Boey. Also I'm planning to merge Orochi, but I don't have any copies to merge (yet). And with a bit of luck a nice other option drops soon.

    3. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      I feel that, I try and get some of each type of unit but its sometimes hard to find one that I like and is easy enough to +10

  21. Happy new year!

  22. Just finished playing the main story of "Bug Fables". I found it to be quite an enjoyable game. If you are a fan of the old Paper Mario games, you'll probably also like this game.

    The theme has been implemented quite nicely (though the texturing has some room for improvement).
