    first of all, here ya go!

    (Game Rules)

     

    Second of all, I'll join once I'm home!

    I have almost the max amount of morphs WITH VIP and Extra Slots lol

    Thank you for posting a link to the official rules! That is very helpful. May I copy the link in the first post (rules of this rp thing)?

  2. BTW feel free to put in relations if you are looking for a certain relation. Like if you're a kit looking for another character to be your mother, father, or siblings. Or a mother looking for kits (which could already be born or we could rp being born). Or if you are just looking for a best friend. 

    If you feel your character is a good fit to be someone else's relation then let them know so they can choose if your character is a good fit to be theirs and you can both put it in your form.

    Forms may be edited some but the base character must remain the same absent permission to change to a whole new character. If you feel the backstory no longer suits the clan or you were unable to get the relationships you needed for your character to make sense, feel free to change such things about your character.

    I hope this all isn't too confusing.

  3. The idea is to have a functioning warriors ultimate clan made up of almost entirely people from the forums (I say almost because I don't think we can prevent others from joining us, someone correct me if I'm wrong). 

    We all submit the characters we are gonna be and decide major things (like who the leader is, who the med cat is, should we be a cannon clan, if not what clan's territory should we occupy, etc.) ahead of time. Then at a day and time we all agree is convenient we all log on and rp as this clan for an hour or two (or longer if we can all stay online that long). If our first time goes well we may do this again.

    There are some rules that may be added to as I learn more about the mechanics of the game:

    1. Obey the rules of the game. The rules can be found at this link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/14gJ6hqYdvRjSs2-KrldYUthY0oU73FDBgTV9gMbt8QY/edit?usp=sharing

    2. Obey the forums rules where applicable. Things like no bullying (except in character as long as it stays that way), hard swears, etc. 

    3. Be realistic as much as possible (no mary sues, death and disease happen, behave as a real warrior cat would)

    4. Use chat realistically. Don't chat in character to people who are not nearby. Don't pass messages about rp secrets or what happened on patrol to others miles away. (You have to send a messanger back to camp for that!) You can chat out of character to discuss new plot points, (like whether a certain cat is sick, should some cat be visited by the dark forest, etc), communicate to non-forum members, (and discuss whether they should be allowed to join), talk about rules, talk about stuff unrelated to the rp, etc.

    5. Obey the warrior code unless for story purposes/you have a reason not to. Be realistic about breakings of the code (try and hide them, or gain power so you can flaunt them, or both). When a fellow warrior breaks the code, act in a way that makes sense based on your character and the surrounding circumstances. If you are the leader you usually must punish severe breaks of the warrior code, though you may change this for story reasons. If you punish some offenders and not others, those under your charge will probably grow suspicious or cynical.

    6. You give perms to be attacked in realistic ways to anyone involved in the rp. Usually the cat that is stronger with more experiance will win a 1 on 1 fight. If you can't decide who will win for story purposes or who is more realistic to win we can always roll dice.

    7. If the clan agrees it would be a good plot-point, a member of the clan can temporarily become a predator such as a fox, dog, badger, etc. This predator will lurk around the clans territory. Depending on the predator it may attack patrols or camp itself eventually. The predator may spawn in kittypet or loner territory and make their way towards Fawnclan territory, or, for faster clashes, it may spawn in camp and then make its way out of camp towards the outer territory (being unable to do damage and invisible for until it is there).

    8. Starvation is a thing. Warriors must hunt and say what food they bring back to stock the fresh-kill pile. If you don't eat for 2 in-game days you will get weak and be unable to fight or run or hunt well. A couple days beyond that and you'll starve (let me know if that's the right balance of days).

    That's it for now!

    And here's the forum:

    Name:

    Gender:

    Pronouns:

    Age:

    Appearance: (screenshot or drawing of your oc. if you haven't created them yet you may have a description to be replaced by screenshot or pic the first time you play as them)

    Personality:

    Backstory (optional, can include things that happened when you played as the oc in the past or may be fictional):

    Skills (optional, list any they have):

    Do you want a chance to be leader?:

    Do you want a chance to be med cat?:

    Relationships ([parents, siblings mates, friends, etc.] with other cats of Fawnclan, decided with others who've submitted characters, if we decide npcs and secondary characters are neccesary you may have relationships with them too, leave blank for now unless someone has already agreed to be your relation):

    Other:

    Character Storage:

    Also, maybe we're just makeing one of the cannon clans? Fan made clans often rub me the wrong way when they take up a cannon clan's territroy. No offence to anyone who likes them.

    I was thinking we make our own clan, Fawnclan, so we can have our own clan culture and traditions. But I am open to being one of the four cannon clans if people would rather do that.

    Also if we could have our territory and not just take over one of the clans I would do so but I don't think the game is set up for that unfortunately. I wouldn't feel too bad either way cause at least we will have a functioning clan and be rping in a way that contributes to the server instead of just trolling.

    I think the best way is to have a vote on this matter when the time comes. In the meantime, I think I'll set up the thread so ppl can start submitting their cats.

    “I’m very sorry for your losses” MoleFern said as only one of the kits survived when QuillBlaze had her kits.

    “It’s…fine, I’ll just have more time to focus on this one” QuillBlaze said as she nuzzled her one kit.

    “Do you have a name yet?” MoleFern said as he looked at QuillBlaze.

    “Yes, i will name them WishKit” QuillBlaze replied as she looked at her kit with love.

    “A wonderful name, I’m sure they’ll grow up strong and healthy” MoleFern said with a nod.

    2.png.a940d3924dea5a76d0a46b146fd53292.png

    “So is training going well?” CloudGust asked as he looked at ArrowPaw.

    “YES! It’s going amazing! I caught a HUUGE stagmole! And i can do a few fighting moves so I’ll be able to defend the clan with ease!” ArrowPaw said excitedly.

    “Yeah I’m sure we’ll be safe with you around” CloudGust said playfully.

    “Of course! I will be the best warrior ever! No bearyena will be able to stand in my way!” ArrowPaw said as he proudly puffed up his chest.

    “I can hear them trembling now” CloudGust said with a smile as he looked at the apprentice.

    “I think  have to go, i hear AshFall calling me.  See you later Cloud!” Arrow said before running off.

    “Bye BarkP-” CloudGust stopped himself as he realized the name he almost spoke.

    3.png.51147e2bc54cbf96393937a782460147.png

    ‘BarkPaw? Really? I know he reminds me of him but why would I say it out loud?’ CloudGust thought to himself.

    ‘Wait what is that’s why I care so much for him? Because he reminds me? What if that’s the only reason? If he didn’t act like him would I care? Or would I show him the same indifference I do to my own kits most of the time?’ CloudGust’s thoughts continued causing him to feel dread wash over him.

    ‘That’s it isn’t it? I don’t care for ArrowPaw, I only care because he reminds me of my younger brother. I can’t do that to him, he deserves better. Distancing myself would be the best option instead of leading him to believe we care for him instead of who he makes me think of’ CloudGust thought as he curled up on the grass to deal with his own sadness.

    “What is it?” QuillBlaze asked as she looked at SpottedFrost.

    “Who’s the father?” SpottedFrost said simply.

    “That isn’t any of your business” QuillBlaze said as she narrowed her eyes at SpottedFrost.

    “Bbut i thought you trusted me…but i see you don’t” SpottedFrost said as he forced himself to sulk and look like he was devastated.

    “I…I…okay i guess you deserve to know, you are my friend” QuillBlaze said sadly as she didn’t mean to make him so upset, while SpottedFrost was interally celebrating as he didn’t know if that would work.

    “The father is a wanderer named Sweets. He was so kind and charming, always checking me for injuries and giving me food if i said i was hungry. He showed me some beautiful spots outside of the clan territory that was breathtaking and amazing. I was completely charmed so i ended up having his kit, little WishKit here” QuillBlaze said with a love-struck smile on her face.

    “I suppose i can see how you would fall for such a…kind individual. What are you going to do if the rest of the clan finds out though? They may not be as kind as me” SpottedFrost sweetly asked as he looked at QuillBlaze.

    “I’m not sure…i don’t want to be kicked out when i have such a young kit. They need to grow up strong and healthy, not starving and cold because of my descisions” QuillBlaze said as she looked at her kit.

    “Well i will keep your secret but we need to cover it up. So how about you pretend to be my mate to keep the rest of the clan off your back about it?” SpottedFrost asked as he looked at QuillBlaze.

    “But i don’t love you…” QuillBlaze said.

    “I know, it’s just pretend. Just pretend you do and they won’t have any reason to be suspicous and WishKit will get to grow up without issue” SpottedFrost said wondering if this would just backfire on him so he added the part about WishKit.

    “I…if it keeps WishKit safe i guess i will, just remember i don’t love you” QuillBblaze said as she looked at her tiny kit.

    “Of course, i will make sure no one has any suspicions” SpottedFrost said trying to hide his grin.

    ‘Pretending to be my mate is enough, no one will take you and you’ll fall in love with me someday’ SpottedFrost thought happily.

    (yay Wildclan is back! 

    Ooooo relationship intrigue)

    i can make npc characters

    Well since there can only really be one character per person at a time, npcs would be kinda difficult to do in game. We may need them, depends on how many people actually join. Just make your main character and when I make the thread submit them. And think about how npcs would work cause I don't rlly know.

    Maybe we'll all have secondary characters we sometimes play as when our main character isn't needed? I haven't thought about that yet.

    Also the leader will be an actual player who is elected in the thread before we start. Or if you can think of a better way to do it let me know.

    How do I download these into my game?

     

    this is off memory, may not be completely acurate

    go to %appdata%, then local low, then strayfawn studios, then into the Niche folder, then there should be a text file titled gem colors or something like that. Open the file, type the color codes, delete any base color codes you don't want.

    Somebody let me know if I'm wrong

  8. I don't really know if this belongs on these forums, but this is the only forums of games I am apart of. Plus I have posted some of my youtube videos on here (and I know some of you watch them, though I'm unsure how many of my views are derived from here!). 

    So I was recorded an episode of a new game (To the Rescue) for my youtube channel using my normal screen recorder, Flashback screen recorder. Everything seemed to go fine but I hadn't run a test recording before starting the video (a big rookie mistake I know). And when I went to export the game to a format I can use to upload it to youtube, I noticed that the video was a black screen.

    The audio was fine, just the visuals were not there. A black screen was in their place. Now that is a big problem since this is a video, not a podcast. I didn't even know this could happen since I had only ever had problems with audio. I hadn't changed any graphics settings, and I had recorded Shelter 3, (another game I had just started playing recently), Niche, and Minecraft without any visual difficulties. (Though I had only ever recorded Minecraft on my laptop, not my desktop). 

    After doing some research, I found it is most likely an issue with the GPU the sxcreen recorder is recording on (I should be able to change either the one the game is running on or the one the recorder is recording on). Hardware Acceleration, (where the main CPU that usually processes everything kicks out part of the load to the GPU), which my current screen recording (and maybe no screen recorder?) doesn't support. Or recording settings that were set wrong for the game.

    To fix this in the future I'm going to try a few things: recording in windowed or another screen mode besides full screen, turning off hardware acceleration, messing around in recorder and/or computer settings... It would help if you have any tips or ways to narrow down the list of things it might be.

    I may also get another screen recorder. I have been generally happy with Flashback, but if this problem can be more easily alleviated by changing to a better screen recorder then I'm willing to make the switch. One of the ones on my list is OBS Studio. Does anyone have any experience with that screen recorder or know any other preferably free options that support Hardware Acceleration?

    And I would prefer to be able to somehow recover the visuals from this recording, but I have already tried recovering it as if it was a corrupted file using FBRChecker. And exporting it to see if the problem was with the player. None of these worked. Does anyone know how to recover a black screen video where the audio was fine?

    Last but not least, if I cannot manage to recover this, should I just start the series over, assuming I can get my screen recorder to record the game properly somehow? Or should I continue my current savefile? Since this video was my true first reactions to the game, should I upload just the audio, since I can't really re-record it like this never happened?

    Any help, answers, or encouragement would be appreciated. Thanks.

  9. Caught Between Claws and Ocean Moon 0

    Pinky watched his beloved and her clan as they trekked upon the rocks toward lands unknown for a couple minutes longer than he could spare, but he soon had to turn his attention to what happened next. And it wasn't looking good. He could stay on this tiny rock of an island forever, Taman's Group wouldn't dare attempt to swim to him after they just saw their leader drown, but they would be sure to camp the beach until he starved to death on this tiny piece of what couldn't even be called land. No, if he wanted a chance at survival, he had to move now.

    Pinky plunged into the water, he wouldn't call himself a good swimmer, but he was decent, unlike Taman. As they had clawed at eachother beneath the waves, Pinky had become aware that the rogue leader was trying to climb up him at first, toward air, which had only a small chance of saving his life, and a much larger chance of dooming Pinky to death. When this was revealed to be fruitless, he had tried to yank Pinky down into the depths with him... Pinky tried not to think about it. He'd have time to sort out his feelings later, at least, that's what he always told himself. The rogue leader had been a fool to pursue the clan cats onto the stepping stones. He was arrogant, and arrogance leads to death.

    As Pinky struggled through the water he was suddenly grateful for the swimming lessons his mother had given him and his siblings. Especially the one where in the ocean, the time Ruby had nearly drowned. It was the most difficult of the lessons, and also the final one. Their mother had not made them take another swimming lesson after that near disaster. Part of him wished she had as another wave crashed into his back. But at least the waves were pushing him toward the island, and the currents weren't dragging him out to sea.

    Finally, shore was nearby. Pinky made a couple final strides before setting his paws on the squishy sand and dragging himself ashore. He was exhausted and thoroughly wet, which led to him laying there for a few seconds, but there was no time to rest. He heaved himself upwards and surveyed the area. As far as he could see clearly, beach stretched in either direction, but then he saw a blurry blue beyond the beach where it likely gave way to more water, a peninsula? 

    The beach was too open, he would be too easily spotted. He crept into the swamp grasses, moving cautiously with each step...

    Then he spotted movement in the grasses. He stared at the spot, wanting to be sure of what was there before he reacted. But there was another rustle in another location, and he caught sight of a creature as big as him with a bright reddish-orange pelt. Cats! Members of Taman's Group.

    He whirled around and ran the other direction, but was stopped short by a cat on the beach, snarling and blocking his path. He veered to the left, but nearly fell into the ocean. Running the other way, two cats blocked his path. Figuring the ocean was a better shot, he ran back, but now the cat who had blocked him before was joined by another, blocking his route. He backed up slowly and whirled around to see the land route now completely blocked by a group of cats, and the other end of the beach was still blocked off. Beyond it he could make out water clearly now. It is a peninsula, and that makes it the perfect place for an ambush!

    "Nice swimming, lone-cat," snarled a pure white cat.

    "Do you want lessons?" said Pinky, licking his fur to keep his demeanor non-chalet and himself calm.

     "Funny," hissed the white cat.

    "No, I'm serious, it seems you all could use some," Pinky said, unable to keep a taunting tone out of his voice as he thought about the way they all had sat on the beach looking stupid while he swam out to the platform to help Fernstar.

    "You think we have no honor?" growled a yellow cat with pink markings, "We wouldn't take swimming lessons from the cat who killed our leader! Not even if we ripped you to shreds after."

    "No talking your way out of this one," snarled the white cat, taking a step toward him.

    The yellow and pink cat flexed his claws. 

    "You talk about honor? This leader you wish to avenge, he had no honor! And neither do you if you avenge that traitorous murderer of a fur-ball!" spat Pinky.

    The cats began hurling insults at him for accusing their leader.

    "Shred him!" screeched a voice from behind

    "You have no right-"

    Pinky had to raise his voice above the noise, "And Taman had no right to be leader after he conspired against Terror Bringer with the outsiders!"

    Some of the cats gasped, but others continued to sneer. "You think we would believe the word of a lone-cat who is known to be a friend of the outsiders?" hissed the yellow and pink cat.

    "Would you at least hear what I claim to have happened?" Pinky asked.

    "All I want to hear is your screams," growled the white cat.

    "Don't be so eager Basher, I, for one, want to hear what he has to say," said a grey cat with red facial markings. Pinky noticed that the cat was blind.

    Basher's tail thrashed back and forth "Are you serious? I-"

    With one flick of his tail and an order, "Silence!" the yellow and pink cat quieted them. Pinky wondered if this was their new leader. His heart thudded at the thought.

    "Humor me," said the yellow and pink cat.

    "Taman had been a prisoner of the outsiders for some time, but he finally escaped when a young member of their group, his son, got a little too curious. When the young cat got close, Taman grabbed him and pulled him into the water, holding him under until the guards let him go free. Worrying the cat would drown, the guards had no choice."

    "Taman told us about his escape," growled the white cat.

    "How do you know the cat was his son?" said a light brown rogue who was behind Pinky, guarding the beach.

    "I've seen the lad. He has a twisted snout. None of the outsiders have one, only native cats do."

    "But that only proves he was the son of a native cat," said the yellow and pink cat.

    "I was also told by their leader the parentage of the young cat multiple times throughout the moons I was in contact with them," said Pinky calmly.

    "They could've been lying," sneered the yellow and pink cat.

    "You could be lying," snarled the white cat.

    Pinky shrugged, "Believe what you want. I say Taman was lying. He knew you wouldn't approve, so he didn't mention that the cat he nearly drowned to escape was his own son."

    "It doesn't change anything," said the orange-red cat, "his son was a traitor."

    "His son was raised by the outsiders because Taman didn't care enough about him. His son believed what he was raised to believe. He never had the chance to choose," Pinky knew that it was a good thing Bugpaw was raised by the clan cats, but talking his way out of being shredded required a little imagination.

    Pinky continued his story, "After Taman escaped..." he told of how Taman had made a deal with the rogue cats to avoid his own death.

    "Once the outsiders were gone, Taman came back to the scene of the crime to act like he had been the valiant defender. He was setting up the scene to fit his story better when his daughter stumbled upon it. He knew he wouldn't be able to fool her after what she had seen, but knew she would be obedient. So he sent her back to tell the group his version of what had happened and that Terror Bringer was badly hurt. She did so. You all believed Taman's story, and when he became leader, everyone thought him to be strong and noble.

    "Even when Taman's daughter disappeared later, nobody suspected Taman had tried to kill her-"

    "You say tried, as in, he didn't succeed?" said a grey cat with brown markings.

    "No, he didn't. I know because I talked to her. How else would I have known all this?" Pinky hadn't even revealed this to the clan cats, now he had to reveal it to a group that may still be intent on killing her.

    "You know her name, then?" asked the yellow and pink cats. Trick question.

    "She doesn't have a name. Most she-cats of your group don't."

    "Impressive," growled the yellow and pink cat, "but I still don't believe you. And even if I do, it changes nothing."

    "If his story is true it changes a lot," growled the blind cat.

    The yellow and pink cat's tail thrashed, "How dare you challenge me in front of the whole group!"

    "Before you get all bent out of shape," said a gruff voice, the light brown cat behind Pinky, "you should know that none of this means anything. It doesn't matter what either of you think. It only matters what the leader thinks. And you aren't leader yet, Thrasher. We must have a Leader Fight."

    "That's right, the new leader gets to decide whether he lives or dies," said the orange-red cat.

    "Fine, then let's have it right now," growled the yellow and pink cat, who was apparently named Thrasher.

    "No," said the light brown cat, "it's getting late and we're all tired. For optimal strength these fights are best held in the morning when everyone has been resting all night."

    "Fine," hissed Thrasher, "but let's move inland a bit more to prepare for the fight and make it harder for the lone-cat to escape."

    Pinky tried to remain calm as three guards surrounded him and he was escorted further inland. He had known it was a possibility for him to be the prisoner of these cats, but now his life was invested in the battle for leadership that would take place tomorrow. That was even more nerve-racking then them shredding him right there on the beach. At least my talking yielded one more night...just them listening as long as they did was improbable.

    As the cats settled down for the night, Pinky wondered if he should try and escape. But his eyelids were already drooping and his muscles ached. Better to wait until morning. He thought as he settled down for the night himself.
