TAB Combo Generator
Before I start-- The generator got its name apparently just by coincidence when I was thinking of branding by my own initials and then ending up with adding a "THE" before it just to make it sound fancy.
I've been working on this since about a week I guess and the major part, that is, the scripting part is over. I repeat, it is OVER. The reason why I'm posting this WIP thread basically is because I need a catalog of moves which I currently don't have. I was not there when TAP's CG was up and running. I do somehow have the swf [wayback machine] but it just doesn't work offline. I opened flash and then opened the swf from there and got this message in the output panel:
So, I could infer that the site's CG directory had a file named movesXml.xml from which it extracted all the moves. So, I again went up downloaded that too and placed in the same directory but still it wouldn't work. It was now clear it had complete interactions with the main server itself and there was no hope reviving it.
So, here I am designing a CG myself so that this community's needs are satisfied.
I need a catalog of moves. I wasn't there when TAP was online. So, I don't have much detailed idea about various types of moves. If anyone remembers some moves or you already know some then please post 'em up here.
[I'll credit you if you're worth it]
I've basically made 4 options
Simple | Advanced | Sword | Special
And I've added provisions for selecting a Starter move and Finisher move. I've set a Minimum and Maximum cap of 3 and 50 respectively.
The Catalog-
[30 June]UPDATE:
-Improved cheat input
-Added "Copy to Clipboard" feature
-Invokes user to use arrows keys on repeated clicking of arrow buttons
-Fixed bug which would have allowed access to insane moves even without cheat
-Fixed other minor bugs
-Right-click>Print
[7th July]UPDATE:
-Added 6 different color themes to suit your eye.
-Layout also done
-95% Finished
I would also appreciate any other suggestions you might want to see in the generator. I've already thought of the layout design. It's going to be green and white [more white, less green]
I'm not embedding the swf in the thread itself because its dimension is too big to be properly displayed over here. So, there you go:
http://filz.us/JqP
Report me any bug that you find since this is, well, a beta test.
Oh, before I leave, here is a forbidden word that I expect someone to misuse:
"holyfuck"
Go figure out. This one's an easter egg
EDIT: I'll appreciate if you could classify the moves into their respective category and post. This will take a lot of load off my shoulders.
EDIT: For special moves, that would basically include gunshots, lasers or anything unrelated to hand-to-hand combat.
