Hello everypony and welcome to /collab/! We’re a board that’s all about fan made projects. You can use this board to follow and support your favorite fan works, start something up yourself, get extra hooves for your project or contribute to somepony else’s project.

However, a lot of threads in /collab/ tend to go ignored. We’ve got a very active fan base, so if you want to start up a new project: you’ve got a lot of competition! You’ll have to do your best to convince people to work with you.

To that end, we have some guidelines we would like everypony to follow. Remember that they aren’t strict rules, but we would highly appreciate it if you follow them or at least keep them in mind, especially if you want to open a thread here.

The guidelines can be found here:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ExhCvTQar75bNHlOhEo6V-HgjWMb18lzZsiWNbaWSFk/edit

If you need some help making your thread, don’t hesitate to post in this thread. We’ll be glad to help you out, in fact, we’ll respect you even more for it. And if you see a thread out there that needs a push in the right direction, be sure to refer them to this thread!

I remember back then when a lot of irate coders kept throwing tantrums and hissy fits because they weren't valued as much as graphic artists or music composers.

Especially since most of those coders were just kids who were using premade engines and parroting out technical terms to sound more impressive.

Fortunately, they all abandoned the place and took their silly tantrums with them.

/mlp/ : Fighting Is Magic Pre-Release 6

Hello ponychan !
This mod has been started on /mlp/ (4chan), but I thought you'd also be interested.
This project has been running since, a week after mane6 got the C&D.
Any help would be appreciated, but we mostly need sprite at the moment to animate Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, please send a mail if you think you can help.
We're still working on the old engine FM2K, but we may switch to SG's engine at some point.
Feel free to make any suggestion or report bugs by mail or in the Google Doc :
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1g1llvSZiQLGZORYOtCspeMQNpiSgpat9a-OJPsb_ff0/edit

Features :
- 2 New charaters : Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy (basic animations)

One could make that argument, and I highly doubt that Hasbro hasn't seen any of the massive porn sites with their ponies front and center. However, in the case of porn, it's made by so many individual artists that it's simply impossible to stop it all. The most they could do is shut down people one by one, and I'm sure Hasbro isn't willing to spend the time and effort of stopping so many people, even if they're screwing them over. If all pony porn artists had a specific site dedicated to nothing but their work, that could be shut down with ease, but that's about as much as they could do, as getting the individuals over it is costly in terms of time and money to deal with.

Actually I've seen a rumor from not too long ago that they might go after the sites that concentrated it, particularly the ones with pedo crap, and prosecuting the main problematic types. Not 100% sure on it, but it's a possibility.

Looks particularly likely since they've been getting bold making books for sale and stuff, it's easier to fire a C&D at them and pinpoint exactly who to target.

Also finding sources of pics on the internet is way easier than trcaking a game to the source, and considering how a lot of the porn can be construed as a way to harm the images of characters, sounds more likely and worth the legal trouble to kick the right asses.

Hi everypony!

I've made a game with ponies in it ... well, I've started to, anyway! It's an NES-style platformer, written in Flash. Applejack jumps, stomps and bucks her way out of a forest full of owlbears.

http://www.dragon-mango.com/ponygame

It's still a LONG way from finished, but I think the foundation and controls are pretty good. I'd appreciate it if my fellow bronies could give it a try and share your comments, suggestions, and demands.

(Future plans include music, bosses, more levels, and of course other playable ponies...)

Ladies and gentlemen, how do you do? I'm Maravex, here to inform you that voice auditions are open for a new Doctor Whooves radio play! At the moment, there are 5 roles available both male and female.

Lines and available roles are right here. This is for the first episode: https://docs.google.com/document/d/14vDEPbHIVQXeL-6yRRwBWF6MM3cY7l-OzyQl1IR57uE/edit

Now before you audition, please read the following.

DA RULES:

•Make sure you have good mic quality. Pops, hisses, background noise and other technical difficulties will seriously diminish your chances of getting cast.

•Multiple takes are welcome.

>asking for british accents when the accent is actually transatlantic

British accents range from cockney to kentish to paddy to irish. I can just see how much paraspriting you'd get if you posted this anywhere where you would get alot of attention. And your document doesn't have the information the VAs need.

You can't just assume everyone has the time to read the fiction or know about it. You need to write character bios, voice type requests, story role significance, scheduling details, filename specification, conditions for passing audition, conditions for failing your judging process.

ETC.

I personally cannot take this seriously unless you treat your auditionees seriously. A collab is a quid pro quo process. And experienced collaborators can spot a self glorifier from a mile away.

It's been almost nine months, but a new thread and a new release has finally arrived. (Old thread >>36234)

Version 1.42.2.5 (2013-05-11)
Link:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/tv6k70aekhmr3es/Desktop%20Ponies%20v1.42.2.5.zip

DesktopPonyGuy appears to have moved on to other things, but development has continued. The artists have added lots of new animations and characters, and there's 149 to choose from in this release!

The program itself has also seen a number of changes. The biggest by far is support for Mac and Unix. Yes - Desktop Ponies is now multi-platform.

We've also got a new site set up:

Found out about this today. That is an amazing feature. You guys are awesome! Since you've said that requests are welcome, I'm taking the liberty to ask you guys to add some more animations to Princess Twilight, to make she look like the original Twilight Sparkle. While most of Twilight's animations are decidedly unique, there are some that really would go well with her Princess version, like the reading animation and the 'wind blowing in my mane' animation. Not being an artist myself, I can't even try to add those animations. Your call, obviously, and thank you for the amazing program; it made using the computer that more awesome!
>> No. 44943
>>44941
Feature requests. Like, suggestions for the program itself. Sprite requests are usually frowned upon.

That said, additional animations for Princess Twilight are definitely a possibility, but personally, I see little point in simply copying regular Twilight's animations. I'm sure that, once season 4 starts, there'll be enough material for a few extra animations that can be unique to Twilicorn.
>> No. 44948
>>44943
Yep. That would be nice. Thanks for the fast answer!

Hello everypony !

I started working on a new videogame project : looking forward to develop RPGs, and 3D videogames, I decided that it was about time a Fallout: Equestria RPG was made !

To avoid any confusion, what I'm going to do isn't a Fallout as in Bethesda Fallout, but as in Black Isle Fallout. It won't really change the universe, since it's based on FoE anyway, however the gameplay will look a lot like the one from the first Fallout.

I've been working on it for a few days now, and got a blog up to keep trace of the saga that this work will be :
http://falloutequestriarpg.wordpress.com/

I'm posting here to know if people would enjoy playing a "classic" Fallout in the universe of Fallout: Equestria.
If anypony would like to play this kind of stuff, let me know, it'll boost me into doing it faster and better !

  MPT3K Looking for Artists

Artists and Fans of MST3K! The dedicated staff of Magical Pony Theater 3000 is looking for stills or animation artists and other personnel who can lend a hoof. If you haven't seen it, we put out a pilot recently as well, put in the embed.

And our current project is 'pen and pencil ready' as it were. We have a script, ready voice work, editors and even a theme song! Now all we need is some help with the animation stills. Send us an email if you'd like to jump on and get started right away as we're already in production but want to speed things up and improve quality, so drop us an email. Even if you're not an artist, we'd still like to hear from you and see if there might be another way you could help.

Magicalponytheater3000@gmail.com

Of course we don't discriminate either, if you want to do full on animation, that's cool to.

Greetings everypony. I'm starting a fan made spin off series on youtube, of My little Pony Friendship is Magic, and could use some help/ people who want to be involved in such things. The spin off series is to come later down the road though, because I want it to go as good as it can go, so I'm waiting to start it until I have enough support from the right sort of people. However, at the moment, to kick off my spin off series, I'm starting a different sort of spin off series that will give background information and hopefully breed support for my ideas.

To start things off, I'm going to have myself and other voice actors that I can get my hooves on, act out the story that I wrote, a link to it will be at the end of this little announcement. I'll be making story art that will mach whats going on in the story as we voice everything, adding sound effects and background music, and it should be something like Dr. Whooves and Assistant, Dr. Whooves Adventures, The Vinyl Scratch Tapes; The Master Recordings, so on and so forth. If you know of any of these youtube projects, then you should get the idea by now.

Anyways, click the link and give the story a read, if you feel like, and send me an email if your interested, or if you just want to give constructive criticism on the story, because it's still not completely done with edits, and if what you have to say might make the story better, I want to hear it. :)

The deadline for Voice acting, or any other help you want to give, is 5/28/2013. I might still accept help after that, but only if I'm hurting for more help than what I get by that point. Voice actors, pick lines from the character/characters that you want to apply for and send me an audio file of you voicing those lines to the best of your ability in what way you think the line should sound like. (hint: multiple takes of the same lines in a number of different ways, is a good idea)

Thank you everypony. Hope to get some favorable responses. :)

Don't put so many spaces for a few sentences.
The casting call is decent, not good, but decent.
The website on the other hand needs to be changed. It's better than collab, but doesn't have a lick of quality either.
Also out of curiosity whats the name of the game maker rpg you mentioned?
>> No. 44892

I'm inclined to agree on VAA's quality control. It feels like fase advertising when the alliance has anyone with a microphone joining it's "alliance." But then as the site master, you gotta ask yourself the great bigot's conundrum. Do you want to make an accessible website to everyone and get told about your poor quality control or do you want to the bigot and control who joins by your standards of quality?

Frankly, the further you are from EQD, the better. *buh-dum cha

But yeah, I like how they established a strict formula for making pitches and casting calls. It gives everything a VA needs to audition. It does not however give a director the same kind of filter for handling said auditions. But dem's the breaks.

As for the breaks in lines... I instinctively press enter because it looks crowded on the text box you type in.

As for the RPG I mentioned... god, its over 2 years old now. It's one of those memories you scrub from your brain because thinking about it makes you so mad. All I remember is that there was a review of it on EQG under RPG. It was based off a guy's fanfiction that bombed because it had the fiction sins of mary sue OC that is a self insert of the author. And if memory serves the review had said something along the lines of "pointless grimdark scenes for the sake of it."

I want to make plain to you that I do not in fact think too highly of myself, as projects in this fandom are done quite often on the fly and turn out great. I've already received more than enough attention to put it into motion, and the ultimate goal of this pilot project is to show my stuff and hopefully get the attention that I'll need for the projects that this is leading into. That aside, I do recognize that this isn't a very well put together recruitment post, as I have placed another one on TheVoiceActingClub.com using Rina-Chan's template to make a better post. It's likely that all of the attention that I've gotten so far has come directly from that and I am debating if I should just take this one down now or wait until the deadline has been reached. As for the approval of my story, it is not just my own approval. I have had any people who's opinions I trust read it over, and if that isn't enough I have also placed a link in the post for you to go and read it yourself if you have any interest. Because it is offered, until you have read it through yourself, you really have no idea the potential that it may or may not have. So sit back and be amazed, because the way it's looking right now, I'm going to make something great out of this. If you would like to see my more professional post (Which I did after this one) here's a link, and thank you for your input. http://voiceacting.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=audio&action=display&thread=25216

A social engineering attack with any kind of legitimate knowledge is probably targeted. Most the other stuff less so.

If you're worried about a legitimate attack being launched, and being able to mitigate it, then I'd consider running fail2ban. I just ran a quick port scan and I'll bet 8080 is turning some eyes since a lot of these script kiddies are looking for open HTTP proxies.

>having root SSH login
This is more common than you'd expect. Yes it's a bad idea, but some organizations choose to enable a pre-shared root password for some or all of their servers (I always use sudo myself). I personally know of organizations which have this setup, and some modern Linux distributions actually enable it by default during installation. Brute forcing root passwords is still a feasible attack.

I already run fail2ban on my boxes.
8080 is a special port for me ^_^ It's open for a reason. It has nothing to do with proxies.

This thread is made for the purpose of discussing all concerns in regards to the Desktop Ponies project ( >>36234 ) and the increasing stealing of its sprite art, so that these topics can be omitted from the actual project thread in order to leave space for actual development there.

Please make sure that the people you report as thieves are actually thieves. Be sure to compare the sprites they put up with the ones in the project. Being accused of plagiarism when you actually haven't stolen anything is a very serious issue, so please make sure you double-check before reporting people here.

List of known thieves:

Thief's name: pumpkinc
DA account: http://pumpkinc.deviantart.com/
She stole a dozen or so of DP animations, claimed to have created them all and went absolutely hysterical when she was caugh: she deleted messages, blocked out people who called her oun on her lies, broke into a string of sob stories and even harrased out people on their own DA accounts out of kiddy rage and (apparently) some mental inbalances she suffers of.
Status: All the stolen material was taken down by DA Mods.

Have you tried updating your GPU driver? It sounds like your GPU just can't display the graphics. In that case I can't do anything. It needs to support the newest version of OpenGL.
Every other problem I can think of would cause a message in the console.
>> No. 44894

Well, I'm a bit uncertain on how I'd update said drivers. I guess it's time to hit up Google to figure it out. Or get my friend over to help. He's rather well-versed with computers, and I'll be hoping he can figure out any problems in terms of drivers.

You can find the drivers at Intels download center https://downloadcenter.intel.com/ Select the version you need, download and install the driver.
According to the specifications of your GPU the game should work fine (I can't try it)
