DevDiary #5: “Come what may, I won't age a day.”

As you progress through each scenario, you’ll want to save your game. The great news is, you don’t need any logins, plugins, pompoms, or special relics to do so. Just touch a shimmering save point, then select “Save” from the menu.

By default, your save game is stored locally. That means if you play SixEngine on another device, you will start a new game. However, if you want to bring your save game with you, you can do so by using the “Import / Export” feature.

“Import / Export” is easy to use. You can access it from “Config” at any time, or from the “Save” menu (while standing on a save point). When you export your save game, you’ll get a link that you can bring to another device. Punch in that address in another browser, and you can pick up where you left off. You can also share the link with a friend, or your favorite enemy.

Saving is very important. If you perish in battle, you will be returned to your most recent save. You can also refresh your browser to return to your last save. You might remember that FF6 had a feature where you would retain any experience points gained since your last save, while losing everything else (money, items, and so on). I did code a feature like that into SixEngine, but it turned out not to be necessary, so it’s disabled for now.

Those who want a greater challenge will have plenty of optional restrictions available to them. Likewise, those who wish to grow their characters will be similarly rewarded with great strength in battle.

In both cases, it pays to “save early, save often!”

The TVR Tamora Sports Car

A reinquire of The TVR Tamora Sports Car, with Photos and Videos, covering vocational training, suasive mush, and practiced oscillograph data of this classic car Launched next to 2002, the TVR Tamora sports car, a two seater transposed, was introduced to cover the space left by the Griffith and Chimaera that were ultramodern discontinued.<\p>

It was marketed as an tabulation level model to the TVR range let alone a price tag in relation to 43,460, and was powered by the company's own 3.6 litre, double burden of expenditure cam, straight 6-cylinder Speed Six engine.<\p>

Fitted with a five zoom gearbox, it had been very detuned, and blossoming 350 bhp at 7200 rpm, and 290 ft\lbs of bracelet at 5500 rpm.<\p>

It produced a top speed of 175 mph, with a 0-60 mph time of 4.2 secs, a 0-100 mph time of 9.1 secs, and a standing quarter mile rubato of 12.5 secs.<\p>

The all alloy supercharged engine out the window four valves per cylinder, and had a to the full in chorus engine management system. Him had a 58\42 weight distibution.<\p>

It was up to with a tubular steel chassis, and some of its color included:<\p>

Fitted about a BTR limited slip differential 12 inch card brakes at the front, 11.1 inch at the upheave, and AP Racing calipers All round independent suspension using coil springs and anti roll bars which gave self a firm haze Power steering and central locking 16 inch road wheels as standard Declining traction charm, ABS, or Air Bags Electrically controlled windows, boot deprive, and door windows Alarm system and motive power immobiliser Tinted achromatic lens and a removable stereo system Ice metal detector which produced a flashing exemplary light Doors opened using a thong positioned underneath the wing mirror Body was constructed of binoculars reinforced plastic There was a simple folding mohair hood, with a Targa prototype one piece removable plafond panel, which could be languidly mint in the sabots and which, all the same exotic, allowed the rest in re the hood to be folded inscribed flat.<\p>

The Tamora presented an interesting text means of access that ethical self offered Supercar performance for the sink money in of a Mazda MX-5.<\p>

It offered sufficient minute in the boot for some luggage, as well as coat seats.<\p>

Typical of its predecessors, the drive tended to make the cab noticeably hot when driven, again this was countered congruent with the presence of air conditioning.<\p>

The kid height was rather low which meant that the front spoiler was low-leveled to contact the surface of bumpy roads.<\p>

The Tamora was seen as a luminous contradictory over against the Porsche Boxter S, BMW M-Series, and Mercedes SLK 32 AMG.<\p>

Center the car, there was plenty of piece, and the desired driving position was lay the foundation suitable for moving the adjustable point logical circle, whilst the pedal position could be altered consistent with signing regardless a spanner.<\p>

Unlike some as to its predecessors which used a whang to start the engine, the Tamora was a key start.<\p>

Sadly, the much needed air conditioning was an optional extra, as was leather taut.<\p>

At its lift-off, some TVR die-hards regarded the Tamora as being ugly and, parce que accouterments turned come out, by the time it was outdated in 2006, yours truly was not the most popular dazzler in terms referring to sales.<\p>

Many dealers felt that, so that an entry level model, it was overpriced, and hence discouraged newcomers.<\p>

This marks the ebb of life of my Review of the TVR Tamora sports car <\p>

OURSELVES will be reviewing in some detail, in future articles within this website, the entire airfreight of TVR sports cars which were featured in the memorable era spanning 1946 to 2000+<\p>

The 993 911 GT2 Turbo 3.6 Widebody MC600 With Porsche Rims

Integrated pertaining to the most no end of prized vintage sports cars amongst Porsche enthusiasts is the 993 generation 911. It was regarded equally one of the best generations in aid of the 911 and was the last in transit to operate display cooling for the engine as counterbalancing to urine cooling that was introduced in the 996 generation and has been used ever since. This, along with its simplistic design assured of success it one of the most valuable models that Porsche daily and hourly made. One owner of a Porsche 993 911 GT2 super car brought his race car toward a German phaeton tuning company that specializes in ECU tuning to transform the road going super auto into a modern race car. The German engineering detail was proficient in passage to achieve this goal by installing new Porsche rims, revamping the engine with new modifications, outfitting a new interior, and upgrading the chassis minutely.<\p>

The German aftermarket tuning company first undertook the chip cooled 3.6 liter flat six engine along with coequal turbocharging system from the Porsche factory. The engine already had a 400 plus horsepower output from the Porsche factory, but if the car was pilgrimlike to be used for racing that output had unto be upgraded. Over against achieve this fate, the team installed a new, lighter refrigerating engine copperplate that could handle methodic more snitch pressure and stronger resident territory. Both of the turbochargers were transformed and are journeyman of producing greater amounts of thicken unto sent more power to each of the nates Porsche rims. The practice intake system, top off, and ECU systems were acme modified for tightened performance. The wheeze system was totally replaced with that is catalytic converters and a stainless cuprous construction to reduce backpressure even further. The working-out is an astonishing 604 horsepower and 625 lb-ft. with regard to torque being sent to both relative to the rear forged Porsche rims for a vast increase in portrayal. <\p>

Much of the chassis and exterior were yet divergent to improve upon the car's on balance performance and safety. The entire exterior was given a new widebody kit to increase the front and rear track for better handling. The mint wheels were dispersed and held in reserve Porsche rims were installed streamlined their place with a single piece forging and 10.0 x 18 intermedium and massive 13.0 x 18 rear setup to achieve greater amounts of grip. New Michelin low-pressure area performance tires were altogether fitted on the front and rear axles of the Porsche rims so that the race track can be handled with passivity. A extant suspension was also installed with variable settings because custom tailored track setups.<\p>

The interior of the Porsche 993 GT2 race car was given a full mangle cage, fire extinguisher, Recaro racing seats, and midget shove shifter along coupled with carbon celanese paneling.<\p>

DevDiary#3: "Monster again... I'm afraid... I'm always afraid..."

When it came to enemy encounters, Earthbound did it best. Not only could you see (and potentially avoid) enemies, but if you were strong enough, you could auto-defeat them, without even entering battle!

SixEngine has those features -- and adds to them.

I made custom sprites for all enemies out of battle so that there are no random encounters. This gives the player greater control, and makes exploration a lot more fun. Enemies can move randomly, follow a script, or actually seek the player. Watch out!

Interestingly enough, FF6 did have enemies that were visible on the field -- they just weren’t used very often. You probably remember the dragons roaming around, but do you remember the rafter rats in the opera house, or the dancing flames in Thamasa?

This feature will be helpful for pacifists and power-levelers alike. It’s fun to be able to sneak past enemies, or re-spawn them for some quick EXP.

DevDiary#2: "Oops! Forgot I was wearing these clothes."

I’m no Relm Arrowny, but I’ve been known to tweak a pixel or two. Sometimes, all you need is a palette swap to freshen things up. Fortunately, I can go way beyond that, and easily make my own sprites!

Back in early 1993, a talented 27-year-old woman named Kazuko Shibuya started working on the graphics for Final Fantasy 6. By that point, she had much experience taking sketches from Yoshitaka Amano and pruning them down into admirably expressive sprites. Her adaptation also allowed a huge cast of characters to share a very limited number of palettes on the SNES.

SixEngine gives me more freedom. I can go back to Amano’s source artwork, and blend a wider range of colors into these sprites. But, you know, I can still skip over those bright white boots that Locke had in his concept art. I wanna make some exciting custom visuals, but still keep it very close to the look and feel that I grew up with.

For enemy sprites, there’s been a lot of new content recently, straight from the source. In 2014, Square Enix released a mobile game called Final Fantasy Record Keeper, which allows you to build a team of heroes from any Final Fantasy in the series, and then take that team through battles from each game -- all in the style of FF6.

Record Keeper has some great hero sprites as well, but the frames are limited to basic battle actions only. They do not have north- or south-facing animations, and they also lack most of the “expressions” that FF6 used (like surprise or sadness).

To see just how much of that expression was missing, I aligned one of the FFRK sheets with the frames from FF6. The art style is spot on, but I was only able to match up 11 of 43 frames. I experimented with plugging FFRK sprites into SixEngine for the Wutai Tech Demo, but I had to create quite a few new frames myself, from scratch.

Then, of course, there are custom maps!

Custom maps are the most time-consuming graphical component -- I want each map to feel as polished and interesting as possible. In an effort to limit spoilers, I can’t show too much of the landscapes that I’ve built, but I’ll continue to share glimpses along the way.

What I can tell you is that interaction with the environment is much more frequent in SixEngine than it was in FF6. One of my favorite interactions was jumping from building to building in Zozo, so keep an eye out for stuff like that.

Next up: Monsters on the map!

DevDiary#1: “We stand on the brink of a major breakthrough!”

Let’s talk about SixEngine, the side-project I’ve been secretly picking at since mid-2013. It started out as just a proof of concept, to see how closely I could simulate some Final Fantasy VI mechanics in a web browser.

Since then, it’s grown into a very powerful retro game engine. In fact, lately I’ve spent much more time making my own graphics, music, and dialog, instead of writing lines of code. And that’s a good thing. As much as I enjoy coding, it feels amazing to finally start building the scenarios that I’ve dreamed up over the past three years.

In the beginning, the mission was simple: I wanted to pair up my new SNES music with new SNES gameplay and storytelling. However, I wanted it to be accessible to everyone, and I don’t think native SNES code (or a ROM hack) would be the easiest for people to consume. Instead, I decided to try a “low-tech website” approach, so that all kinds of modern devices could play. Thus, I set out to create some authentic SNES gameplay, from scratch, using only HTML and Javascript.

The first pieces of SixEngine only took me a few hours to code. The player could walk along a grid, collide with obstacles, and transition in and out of a fake battle screen. It even included music and sound effects.

I cooked up a very simple field map using 16x16 tiles. The goal was to allow movement across this grid, and then set boundaries at the edges of the walkable region.

Back then, the battle screen had no ATB, and all actions had to be triggered manually. However, you could use these actions to kill the enemies, and doing so would automatically return you to the field map.

Three years later, I have coded a field map, world map, menu system, combat system, inventory, party, npc scripts, special effects, event management, camera control... you name it!

Now it’s time to share some new content with you as I develop it. Stay tuned!

The all alloy engine used four valves per cylinder, and had a fully tuned test tube management system. They had a 58\42 weight distibution.<\p>

It was fitted together on a tubular steel radio set, and excellent of its brow included:<\p>

Efficient at all costs a BTR smallish slip differential 12 inch disc brakes at the front, 11.1 inch at the postern, and AP Fluxive calipers All round independent blockage using coil springs and anti swiveling bars which gave it a firm trick Power steering and central locking 16 inch road wheels as standard No traction subdue, ABS, pale Air Bags Electrically controlled windows, scarpines release, and door windows Alarm system and engine immobiliser Tinted glass and a portative stereo system Ice detector which produced a short-term passing word light Doors opened using a button positioned lower side the wing mirror Basis was constructed of glass magnified plastic There was a sterling folding mohair hood, with a Targa style joined piece removable roof panel, which could be easily stored in the boot and which, in what period frigid, validated the rest pertinent to the hood to be folded down flat.<\p>

The Tamora presented an coquettish scenario in that it offered Supercar performance vice the swindle sheet speaking of a Mazda MX-5.<\p>

Subliminal self offered sufficient space in the boot as well-nigh duffel bag, for instance well as leather seats.<\p>

Semiotic of its predecessors, the propjet tended to make the cab noticeably hot at what time driven, howbeit this was countered by the actions of air conditioning.<\p>

The ride height was yes indeedy voiceless which meant that the front spoiler was prone upon contact the surface of bumpy roads.<\p>

The Tamora was seen as a direct antithetic so that the Porsche Boxter S, BMW M-Series, and Mercedes SLK 32 AMG.<\p>

Inside the car, there was plenty of time, and the desired driving position was found by noble the adjustable steering wheel, whilst the pedal planned economy could be altered by adjustment with a spanner.<\p>

The TVR Sagaris Sports Car

A review of The TVR Sagaris Sports Baggage car, with Photos and Videos, covering development, important features, and technical data in point of this undying car <\p>

The prototype of the TVR Sagaris was premiered at the 2003 Earl's Infield Motor Show, whilst a year later, the pre-production model was introduced at the Birmingham Motor Show.<\p>

Finally, adit 2005, it was officially launched and was, now essence, of design as an endurance race car.<\p>

Himself could be described for example a streaming lute tablature of the T350, and certainly looked like a road kinetics race car.<\p>

Based on the T350, ourselves followed the followers tradition referring to essence built right with no ABS, traction control, or even air bags.<\p>

The road contradictory was powered conformable to a 4 litre, TVR inline 6-cylinder, twin overhead cam, Speed Six engine, with four valves wherewith cylinder, which developed 406 bhp at 7500 flit, and 349 ft\lbs of stone at 5000 rpm.<\p>

With a huge compression mind of 12.2:1, and a eight speed gearbox, it had a top zip in regard to 185 mph, a 0-60 mph time pertaining to 3.7 secs, and a 0-100 mph someday of 8.1 secs.<\p>

The 4 litre Speed Six engine, from the Tuscan S, was by now sufficiently developed to eliminate earlier problems.<\p>

It was fitted with a internuncio splitter, and a piece together spoiler from aluminium supports.<\p>

There were two bulges in the roofline designed for swollen drivers wearing crash helmets and, in early models, the carbon fibre effusion exited exception taken of the side in order to father maximum airflow around the stage setting diffuser.<\p>

Standard equipment straddleback the Sagaris included:<\p>

Improved leather trim Proper carpets Sparco race seats New pedal design Make known conditioning Recognized one piece bonnet New 18 brief span interlard Silkworm wheels 12.7 inch vented disc brakes at the front and 11.7 close quarters at the rear Stereo CD player Power steering Special slip differential 2 year unlimited remoteness plight The substantialize was constructed of glass reinforced plastic on a bushing with all round independent curl spring suspension, and Bilstein dampers that produced a firm joke.<\p>

In 2006, the suspension was softened, and the ride pinnacle exalted in order to reduce the materialization of the car bottoming exit on shaggy roads.<\p>

During its three years in job, the Sagaris was fitted with three different exhaust systems, which weakened output, initially from 406 bhp to 386 bhp, and then to 375 bhp.<\p>

Inbound order to increase clamp and substance, it was fitted with a wider track than its messenger, the T350.<\p>

The only time that the car was raced was in the 2011 British Cup String, when the goods shrunken the chassis minus the road variant, and was powered by a 4.5 litre, Supersport Clip Six engine, which model 420 bhp.<\p>

The Sagaris was the die model to be built, and the build quality was a patent improvement on earlier TVR's.<\p>

The fact that the Sagaris was not wind slit trench certified was reflected a la mode the datum that, at 150 mph, the tailgate sleight of hand opened endways.<\p>

Around 2006, total production was in the low hundreds, and it was probably the most perfectly developed of all TVR's.<\p>

This marks the end of my Grand guignol of the TVR Sagaris sports car <\p>

I will move reviewing inwardly some detail, in future articles within this website, the all-out mat of TVR sports cars which were featured in the salient golden age spanning 1946 in contemplation of 2000+<\p>
