Ladies & Gentlemen,
I am very proud to announce my new LGR.
After 3 years since I started this project, I have finally got the
chance to finish this LGR. I had many problems with it:
- the programs in LGR Developpement Kit refused to work
- LGR generated had wrong colours in the game caused by wrong colour palette when creating pictures
But there still two known problems:
-
If I use Easy LGR (program available on zworqy.com) and save LGR, when
i use it on elma, something related to Picture.lst is wrong.
- By the last problem comes ALE problem: all textures except default ground are pictures
- When I use elma editor, if I choose Sticks texture with Huge mask, elma crash
- When I switch from one LGR to another, elma crash.
As
you should know, Polarix, my team mate made a LGR, which is almost
finished by the way, called "8-bitV10". So, I asked me to convert all
my pictures to the right palette and make me the LGR. In exchange, I
promised him to do Apple Harvest with One Round Style.
I accepted the deal. Now, after 2½ years that all pictures and textures
were already done, he finally finalised it and I would like to thanks
him very, VERY much because he realised one of my Elma dreams which is to have an "Ok" LGR or better.

Now, I will describe my LGR. In short, this LGR has no specific theme but I could call it "Artistic".
I
started by making 4 textures similar to Brick, Stone1, Stone2 and
Stone3 with MS Paint for fun. The goal wasn't to make a LGR at this
time. This projet started when I noticed that I could make my own LGR.
Basicly, I was bored of the textures and the bike, so I decided to make
my own. From the end of this LGR page,
I saw that Paint Shop Pro could be used to make good pictures. So, I
asked to my uncle to get for me this program and finally, I got it with
some conditions. I started by using effects on my basic textures.
Results are: Br1Top, Br4Top, Brick1, Brick2, Brick3, Brick4, Sticks.
Sky is just edited from original. Other textures are just taken from
the net. I wanted to have most different colors possible.
About
the Masks, I was bored of the limited choices of those, so I decided to
make a few more (this means that I kept original too): MaskHuge is just
really huge and square. MaskMid is a rectangle like MaskHor but 2x
smaller. MaskRa1 is like the races squares in vertical; MaskRa2 is same
but horizontal, similar to Maskmid size. MaskSqa is same height as
MaskHor but square. I hope those sizes will satisfy you. ![]()
Now,
the pictures. I didn't have much ideas for those, I just edited some
with Paint Shop Pro. I was even thinking to remove them from the LGR,
but I thought that some people could like them. Some are pretty cool
ideas but result is not that nice and others are ok.
Finally,
the main reason for publishing it. As you know, since I registered to
elmasite and to mopolauta, I always used this head avatar. Some people
even asked me the whole LGR for this green helmet, but I didn't make.
Finally, today, I can say them: YES, IT IS DONE! I started by making
the head and continued wo make the rest with same color style: green,
green-yellow, yellow. You'll see, its very nice. I also made another
kuski but in red, I didnt like and deleted it. That was a good choice.
There are the LGRs:
download here: This is the full version LGR and a level that I made to show most of pictures.
download here: This is the bike with default pictures
download here: This is the HighQ similar version edited by Polarix
For noobs: If you want to get is as default, rename the LGR as Default.lgr and replace in your LGR folder
Thank you again Polarix :*
P.S. If someone has the solution to my unsolved problems, contact me.
