Hey kaio, last time I visited your site (a couple of weeks ago), I got some trojan on my comp (no big deal, anti-virus got it right away). I don't know what caused it but I just wanted to let you know...

Maybe its because of the pop-up?, for this moment I'm using geociteis free server space, and I'm in the process to move my site to a better server without pop-up, maybe at the end of next month. Thanks for the info anyway For our project progress : my hdd crash last week and all my work are gone , I have to re-model all the building again, so maybe I'll finish it next week. Sorry for the delay.

Hey, sounds good. I mean, they signed up in the first place, so they must like Zeliard. But since the forum isn't very active, a lot of people probably don't check it. By the way, the art is looking good. Keep it up! (I think the problem was from a pop-up, but now I'm using Firefox instead of Internet Explorer, and it blocks pop-ups... so no problem )

Thanks, that's all I can do to help this forum.
I already make a new progress for the artwork, not much, just on the rat and Garland's boots. It really consumes my time to do it since I'm not an expert on this, I'ill upload it tomorrow.
Latest addition to the design; - Enemy - Fire Wolf, Alligator Man, Grell (Flying Jellyfish) - Character - Duke Garland ( new design ) I have made a new design for Garland, a little modification for his chest armour, gauntlet(he don't have it before), and leg armour.

Shvegait, do you know how I can get all information about the enemy/boss in Zeliard game? Before this, I named the enemy/monster by referring to Savage Dragons site. I once read in his site that someone has the monster guide and found out that Flying Jellyfish was actually Grell. So, I would like to named all the enemies according to a name given by the game maker. Can you help me?

Sounds great..You know, I am from Russia so my English is bad...((((.. In my opinion it's quite difficult to make 3D game...and how much time we have to wait for a new game?

Hey kaio,
I did a little research and found out that the "Monstrous Manual" book is not for Zeliard, but for Dungeons & Dragons! So "Grell" might not even be the official name, but just what the Flying Jellyfish is in Dungeons & Dragons. (Hint: Type "Grell" into Google Images and you will see a bunch of pictures of Grells!) There might not even be official names for the monsters. Sorry about this, but I don't think it is a big deal.
So I would say just use the names on Savage Dragon's site, unless you think you can come up with better ones for any particular one. For example, I think "Blue Flying Creature" could be called "Blue Wisp" or something. You can tell he just guessed at the names, but they are a good starting point, and some of them are funny (like "Parrot Man").

Bill, To complete the whole game maybe takes some times (a year maybe? ), but if there are many helps, we can complete the game earlier than that. Maybe you want to participate? For a start, I will try to complete the Muralla town by the end of this week, so keep update Shevegait, I think we will named the enemies base on Savage Dragon's names, thanks for the research anyway .

Latest Updates - Enemy Boss (Paguro), Artwork update (still not finish). I completely change how Paguro looks, from just a square agar thing to an agar with a human figure and an armour (still an agar ;D). Actually I has planned to give him a sword, but I forgot to draw it, maybe next time...
I also add few pics on Muralla town in 3d, render using 3D Max (in building section).

Sorry for being being late... I had a lot of schoolwork since it's my senior year so I'm crammed with work. Here's my 2 cents: First of all, you should always upload all your work so if your HD crashes you can just DL the files from your server on the Net. Hope you didn't have to do it all again T_T. If you're curious about all the names and stuff I suggest you refer to this: db.gamefaqs.com/computer/doswin/file/zeliard_a.txtIt's HELLA old (4 years), and I wrote it when I was 12-13. So don't expect perfect english (I'm Croatian) and although I have updated it a few years ago, more recently than this version on the Net (mainly because I included PICTURES which gamefaqs can't support in their .txt version of the uploaded files), it's pretty crappy and needs to be COMPLETELY reworked. Once I decide to get down to it I'll do it, but for some basic infos you can refer to that. Hope it helps. Can't wait to see the results, keep up the good work. And if you have further questions just ask me cuz I know it all although I haven't played the game for months... I've finished it more times than I can count so it shouldn't be a problem to answer you a particular question. As for the bosses, here's a simple list so you don't even need to look at the FAQ: Muralla Town - Cangrejo (Crab) Satono Town - Pulpo (Octopus) Bosque Village - Pollo (Chicken) Helada Town - Agar (Ice cube) Tumba Town - Vista (Fish) Dorado Town - Tarso (Torso) Llama Town - Paguro (Ice cube) / Dragon (Dragon? ) Pureza Town - Alguien (Bat) / Jashiin (Worst thing on 2 legs since the Tyrannosaurus Rex)

Hi all, Thanks for the info Zeliarder, but the link are not working, anyway I have search and found some walkthrough at gamefaqs websites regarding Zeliard's Boss & enemy name written by Alan Franciškovic (is it you Zeliarder? ;D). I thought Agar was a jelly, because jelly is called Agar in Malay ;D, it seems that I have to redesign my Agar Boss from a jelly to an ice.... Progress: Muralla town are still under construction, currently I'm making the sky & some texture for each house to make them a bit different from each other. I apologize for the delay, I hope it'll finish soon.....

No, you are right kaio. Agar is a jelly. However it often gets confused with an ice cube because it's in the ice level, and it's cube-shaped. Also, one other nitpick with the boss names, Vista means "sight" or "vision", and not "fish". That's why it's a giant eyeball. But of course, the boss descriptions are just to jog your memory. Can't wait to see the finished Muralla. But take your time!

Thanks Shvegait, I don't need to redraw Agar again . So how about Paguro? Is it same as Agar? It really look alike but it was green, so I assume Paguro are also a jelly thing, any opinion?

I think they were just lazy and didn't want to waste time making another boss, so they reused Agar and changed the color But! I have a big feeling that they originally re-used "Cangrejo" and not "Agar". Why? Because "Paguro" means "cangrejo ermitaño" or "Hermit crab." But oh well, they re-used Agar, and just re-colored it. So stick with that
