The Thread About Ponies, Logistics and General Weirdness (And Gilda)TV

[Minty]

Well when my dad said "come over to clean up some stuff from our new neighbors basement, he actually meant to clean the stuff up, and then proceed to remove ALL the flooring, remove ALL the walls, and then clean up ALL the sheetrock, tile, linoleum, and other various things. Tomorrow, rewire ALL the things.


Also, I'm not telling you the name of it Apokalipse.

I know I said that even if you found it I wasn't accepting any blame, but if Toro can find it based one what I've said, I've already said more than what I meant to. I can hint at things a little, but something like that is something I really don't even want to lead someone else to.

Extra Credits went mental with MLP references today.

Now to the GTP thing, including the pics thing:

Just one, this:

Amazing.

Crossover:

And MintBerryCrunch might have committed a terrible mistake, everyone lurking around will find that fic, and then they will known "How Equestria was made".

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

I don't see any PM's... that's weird.

Check yo DA brony...

I didn't want to take you away from doing Dreams and Nightmares if you were busy with that at the moment. I just wanna get a concept sketch together, to give you a rough idea.

Well, I'm back from the "farm". Who could of thought that digging out potatoes in the rain could be so much fun...
I heard two bronies in the bus when I was riding home. They were speaking English and talking about Pinkie Pie and Appleteeny.

Farm? Also, I crave the day I have my first IRL brony encounter...many songs shall be sung, and if I'm honest, I'd probably end up advertising my fics, but oh well.

All I'll tell you, is that the link can be found in a comment on Equestria After Dark.
I just Googled it myself so I could at least point you in it's direction without telling you directly, but that's as far as I'll go.

No really, I mean it, it's still only a small hint, but you can't blame me for this.

So there's that.

 

[Rykon Zero]

Oh hey, thought I'd tell you guys something interesting: I've turned my host brother into a brony. Dude likes Fluttershy, but calls Applejack "Cowgirl bitch pony" and dislikes how insanely up front her accent is, but he likes her more after Applebuck Season.

...where should I look?

Summer house with a garden? I don't know how you call it in English. Apple trees, berry bushes, pickles, flowers, carrots...

And MintBerryCrunch might have committed a terrible mistake, everyone lurking around will find that fic, and then they will known "How Equestria was made".

I found it, scanned it, then closed the document.

Like I said before, I'm not actually going to read it. I just quickly scanned through the story to get some idea of why it's considered so...wrong, and now I know.


And no, I don't blame you Mint, I blame my own bloody curiosity.

 

[Apok]

So there's that.

Really?
No really? Because Google showed me that comment. And I decided to not check it. I don't even know why!


I'll blame Toro instead of you then.

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

...where should I look?

Oh, nowhere. Y'know that thing where you plan to do something, then suddenly people give you random crap to do, and don't seem to care that you were planning something? I suddenly had that as I was planning to write it.

I'll send a note to you in a mo.

Summer house with a garden? I don't know how you call it in English. Apple trees, berry bushes, pickles, flowers, carrots...

I think...allotment is roughly what you mean, maybe.

Actually I wasn't sure about it, having read other couple of stories while making that search lure me a little bit, and I didn't know if it was it, until the whole thing, funny enough the premise was closely similar to a normal fic, hell a bit better than the one auditioning with the Wonderbolts.





And, with these words, let the race for 10000 start.

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

Sent you a note on DA, Unit.

 

[Apok]

Ooooooooooh.



I was wondering how someone would manage to turn a normal fan fic into a clopfic as suddenly as you guys said it did.
Now I know.
I even thought that since I knew what was going to happen I wouldn't be surprised.
Nope, I was surprised.

Never speak of it again.

 

[unit-one]

Sent you a note on DA, Unit.

Actually, I'm not that shocked... a bit confused, yes.

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

It's magic brony...pure magic, that's how fillies roll.

 

[unit-one]

You really want that picture do you?

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

I kinda need it, for Warmness on the Soul. XD

 

[unit-one]

 

[Wiegert]

Never speak of it again.

Indeed.


And then I go and mention A Test of Strength, a comic which contains copious amounts of violence, gore, profanity, and some quite frankly upsetting scenes.

In short, it's completely :censored:ed up.


I need some light relief, fast:

Pinkie Pie uses Ghost Pro, why am I not surprised?

 

[Racedude]

I will check out those mods for SA, thus far I just got the ENB series, I don't like to mess with the visual aesthetics too much, and Ballas are a bitch[/Riley].

It's the Smakkie mod (Real cars+some ricers), this mod pack and Yelmi's speedometer (find it among these), if you want to know.

Apart from that, I downloaded those models(Luna, Celly and the mane 6), maybe they will have so use in the future. With that said I'm done with ponies for today.

For GTA-SA?

OMG WHERE???

The possibilities in DYOM!!!

 

[Akira AC]

Actually no, I downloaded the models from this DA page to see where I can fit them, a game or 3Dmax to do something, but at the moment I'm a little bit time restrain.

I also contemplated the possibility of plotting them(specially Celestia) however I have to verify the file type, see if I can convert it and check if the plotter can actually plot it, I really like those designs.

And Philomena deserves more attention:

I said this before and I will say it again, that design is awesome.

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

A fic called "Secret Tub Fun Series?" The name alone intrigues me...however, there is writing to be done. I did promise my fans, (squeeee, I have a fanbase!), that dropping Gods and Demons would mean other stuff more frequently, so yeh...

 

[Tornado]

It was nice enough (read: the weather was terrible) for me to finally wear my sweatshirt. One of my friends noticed it (of course, how would you miss it), and whispered something unforgivable!

Spoiler

Fluttershy is best Pony.

And as President of the A/V club at school (he is the PR Manager), I dedicated 20 minutes of time in the meeting today using Science! to prove him wrong.

tl;dr:

Now I want to go to a meetup.

Oh, well. Good luck! Call me if you ever manage to pull it off.

EDIT: Have you tried MilkShape 3D? I'm not sure if it works with models for GTA, but is one program I once fiddled around with.

I'm still trying to find a way to get money for those McDonald's ponies.

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

Milkshape 3D's good, but simplistic. For routing and converting it's extraordinary. If you have 3DS MAx though, you've got all the modellor you'll ever need.

A good stand-in, in lieu of 3DS Max, is Blender. Plug-ins mean i can handle pretty-much anything nowadays.

 

[unit-one]

grrr... why do we have Smurfs for Happy Meal?

 

[Racedude]

grrr... why do we have Smurfs for Happy Meal?

Hey! At least you got blind-bags.

Also, the new Smurfs movie sucks, it is too much of a stretch, and so deviated from the original idea that you can think they only relied on the Smurfs' reputation (and all the licensed crap) to get sales.[/off-topic_nitpicking]

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

Welcome to the world of reboots RaceDude. Not every failing series gets Faust's intervention to make it as awesome as this reboot is. XD

 

[Akira AC]

EDIT: Have you tried MilkShape 3D? I'm not sure if it works with models for GTA, but is one program I once fiddled around with.

No, but there is a plugin in 3D max specially for that purpose, the problem is that sometimes it messes up with the stability, still I find very little use for those models on GTA, I cant animate them because that would mean redo the pose and that is horrendously complicated, not to mention the fact that my animation skills are very limited(I just known how to animate 3D by displacing and relocating elements on the different locked axis-linear displacement, which makes those ponies seem a little bit robotic).

True, my problem is that the laptop cannot handle 3Dmax, I can use the computers at work, but for a really limited amount of time.

And I don't know what to do with them, no practical use on SA or GTA4, no application in other games, in summary I don't known, the only thing that crosses through my mind is plotting them.



And INTJ, ENTJ seem to be the most troubled breed of Bronies around the internet, which turn out to be a bit interesting considering their condition.

 

[unit-one]

wow, 999th post. I think I'll stop for today.

 

[CoffeeGrunt]

Plotting them, I don't get what you mean?
