Want new emotes? Learn how to do them yourself!

Post by belannaer »

Here is how to format emotes. You need to have at least one "me:" line and "verb1". You can use two "me:" lines if you want to have one with target and one without target, like in the dsteel emote below.

Possible variables you can use:
$N subject (you/Belannaer)
$V verb, uses the command you type as the verb (for example in hug emote it uses the "hug")
$V1 verb 1
$V2 verb 2
$P possessive of the subject
$p possessive of the target
$T target
$t target 2
$o objective
$A adverb

Hug emote:
------
me: $N $V1 $P arms around $T and $V $o $A
adverb: warmly
reqtarget: 1
verb1: wrap
------

Dsteel emote:
------
me: $N $V1 $P weapon with blinding speed and $V2 $A 'Enough! Draw steel, coward... our blades will decide the outcome!'
me: $N $V1 $P weapon with blinding speed and $V2 $A 'Enough! Draw steel, $T... our blades will decide the outcome!'
verb1: draw
verb2: roar
------

Kick emote:
------
me: $N $V $T in the $t $A
nonliving-me: $N $A $V $T, but nothing happens
reqtarget: 1
target2: butt

If you are clever you should be able to use this information to format your own emotes and post them to this topic. If they are good enough I might copy&paste them into the game and give you a pdf per emote added. If there is some emote in game that you'd like to know how it is done let me know and I should be able to provide you with some information about it.

rap

Post by solar »

Umm, thinking about the 'rap' emote Suron suggested years back.

When the emoter does it without target, he gets a line about 'You rap about life in general" or some shit.
When the emoter does it with a target, he gets a line about "You rap about the qualities of <target>".

These two are covered in your post.

BUT:

How should we format suggestions where the target and/or bystanders see it as:
<emoter> waves <his> hands like a monkey.
<emoter> waves <his> hands like a monkey at you. Maybe he is trying to communicate?

---

And then there's the 'imbecile' emote that is quite... yeah. It involves random choices.

Icesus is not just my life - it's the lack of it.

Heckle

Post by simius »

"heckle" emote:

me: $N $V1 $A and $V2 rotten tomatoes everywhere.
V1: boo
A: angrily
V2: throw

me: $N $V1 $A and $V2 rotten tomatoes at $T.

Where $T is the jerk who deserves to be heckled or one of his/her body parts?

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
