3DMM Monopoly Development Thread

[Dominator Dan]

Better late than never. As of this moment, all 3DMM Monopoly based discussion in the gaming nights thread is now FORBIDDEN.

As for the project itself, we have the BOARD:



I've also just this minute finished all the Title Deed cards, now to get on with the Surprise! and 3DMM Community Chest cards.

Note: I'm going to be changing all the dollar signs on the board to IMAGINOPOBUCKS signs, which is basically an 'I' with two lines through it, I found it in the character map, good stuff. Hopefully replacing the image file in the 3D programs isn't too much of a problem, Liam?

From what I understand Liam & Ash are modelling the playing pieces based on the most popular props. Are you guys still waiting for the BMDL files to work with? I have 3DMM but I don't know the first thing about getting that stuff.

As for the coding side of things, Pizza's got something going on github that sounds pretty swell!

If you want to contribute, just sign up to github, clone that repo, and do a pull request.

For simplicity let's keep it all in C#

Additional info:

Because the Library folder is chock full of constantly-changing binary files, I've decided to try the route of RARing the entire folder. You will have to unRAR "Library.rar" to get it to load in Unity, then once you're done making changes, replace "Library.rar" with your new Library folder.

Also I'm open to moving the whole repo up one folder if we want to include other related projects (e.g. web service) outside of just the Unity project. Let me know.

If there's any details I'm missing, refer back to the 3DMM gaming nights thread.

wow you could have at least stayed in my thread after fucking it up THANKS GUYS

[Evil Ash]

BMDLs won't be necessary, we're just redoing them entirely.

[Liam Brocklehurst]

Not to be a dick, Dan, but we're thinking of having the cards dynamic? So basically we can be constantly adding different cards and such, so it can be just a blank card with a design on... (I might be wrong, but that's the idea I had)

[Dominator Dan]

haha what's dickish about that? you mean for just the surprise and community chest cards? that's fine i ain't done em yet haha.

unless you mean the title deed ones too, though that wouldn't make sense cause what more could you add, unless there's BOARD EXPANSIONS, and you add multiple branched paths in the board

...now THAT would be an interesting monopoly variant

[Liam Brocklehurst]

haha I just thought you may have started the Surprise cards, but okay cool!

[Air Rick]

What's the symbol that is on the studio and ideas room, etc?

Maybe instead of a train, it's a shopping cart?

[Evil Ash]

It's a silhouetted map of the entire theater.

[Scatterbrain]

Now we have a proper thread now's a good time to raise this point early on.

Pizza and I were talking about the music last night. I wanna know how anyone intending on playing this (ie. ALL OF US hopefully) would feel about some re-recorded laid back versions of 3dmm classics?? something that could easily drift into the background while you play? And also Pizza said he wants some decent rips of some of the original MIDIs so I'll get on that too...

but which would people prefer if push came to shove?

[Liam Brocklehurst]

The laid back idea sounds awesome, could have loads of people contribute and make the 3DMM MONOPOLY LAID-BACK CHILLOUT ALBUM.

Also everyone should get into IRC:

irc.quakenet.org
#3dmmonopoly

(I have IRC on all day at work, so feel free to join!)

[Trooper]

Yeah, laid back 3dmm music would be great.

WE WOULD SO FINISH THIS

edit: also liam, regarding the dynamic card plan, sounds great, though for a couple i was hoping to include little pictures on the cards, would that be possible?

edit #2: actually i figured i should post one of the title deed cards



i'm quite chuffed with how this idea has developed, the game has taken on a lot more hostility with the trespassing aspect, so when somenoe lands on your property, instead of saying, thanks for staying, you can be all, GET OFF THE FUCKING SET

also yeah, imaginopobucks currency IN ACTION

[Slime]

Oh man I can't wait to play this with you guys, this is gonna be GREAT

[James McCloud]

thats awesome dan

[HMC]

Good work, guys. Usually I hate Monopoly because it's boring and tedious, but I could see myself getting into this. If you need any art assets I'm available to help!

haha loving what you're doing Dan KEEP AT IT IT'S AWESOME.

And sure, we could have pictures, but I'd imagine maybe 5 or 6 different ones, so they could be put into a 'category' and have that image/texture assigned to it. Is that what you were thinking of?

EDIT:
Look who it is!

[Dominator Dan]

YES

though i dunno if it's cause of the images i sent, but he looks a little THIN along the red line axis, though that might just be the shading being misleading.

[Dungeon Snake]

haha crazy 3dmm.com monopoly music would be so dope


also you should make some kind of thing where anybody can submit a card, like damage jackal was saying in that other thread "lyntan fucks you mom" or something and the cards could have CRAZY EFFECTS even like "SWAP ALL OF YOUR MONEY WITH ANOTHER PLAYER" or "YOU HAVE THIRTY MINUTES TO TAKE A PICTURE OF YOUR NIPPLE AND POST IT ON 3dmm.COM OR YOU LOSE 1000$" or whatever so basically its just total chaos at all times

[Dungeon Snake]

also there should be wandering monsters that you encounter based on how many squares you move, and each player-object (car, dog, hat, etc) has different stats/powers that allow you to defeat them, so like for example picking the car actually makes a difference because you get +2 Attack and -1 Defense. Also if you land on the same space as another player you should be able to attack them

[Dominator Dan]

looks like we're gonna need an extra menu screen

Choose game type:

3DMM Monopoly
3DMM Monopoly X-TREME

haha yeah we're hoping someone can help out and make some sort of site where you can submit card text (for approval I guess?) and it'll automatically go into the game. Totally do-able, I just don't know PHP or whatever someone would make this in.

MONOPOLY X-TREME DLC

[Dominator Dan]

  here comes the MONAYYY  

[Pizza The Hut]

hahhaha, although we shoudl incorporate Uncle McZee

[Bobby Swisha]

shit yeah course, dunno why i didn't do that in the first place

here we are:



reminded me of this run of monopoly notes:





it would be great if goro is up for drawing mczee in a number of various poses like the above exactly like he has done. preferably ones seen in the program i.e. him looking at movie reels, trying to balance a ridiculously tall ice cream, air guitaring in the ticket booth, CHEESECAKE (if you don't have 3dmm I CAN PROVIDE REFERENCE PHOTOS)

i would contribute and draw some myself but i think goro's got the exact style that fits the money illustrations. would you be up for drawing 7 goro?

edit: alternatively, we could have 7 different 3dmmer artists to do individual mczees provided it doesn't get awkward like if 8 people draw mczees and i have to give one the boot
