Is it possible to have certain places in a world take you to another plane(real to ethreal, etc.), or to an alternate world that is very similar?
Like for example, the Super Nintendo Zelda game(forgot the name) where you can travel between the normal and the evil world.
Is it possible?

Yes, that's very simple...just add an event to a specific movement tile to take you to a different map. All that and much much more.

Obviously you have to design the dark world, though. Coldstone will not create one for you. This would be no different from having say 2 towns. Just as you can go from one to the other you could go from a light world to a dark world.

Thanks for contributing.

To be honest, I knew it all along that it was possible, but I thought it was about time I started a new thread here(coldstone forum).

It's just annoying to start threads when you know the answer. :mad:

sounds a lil' like someone's making a bootleg Soul Reaver (, legacy of kain :), plane shifting that should be interesting , if it only borrows from the game instead of pirating all the concepts...

I've never played that, so I don't know what you're talking about. I've never even seen someone else playing it for more then a sew seconds.

Oh good for you you're unconciously doing the same thing as someone else ,
Hey if you're going to ripoff My sig (like you did Legacy of Kain) at least spell it right...
Either way the plane shifting is an interesting concept the question is will it be at liberty or will the player have to go to certain depots to shift. Also I believe almost all of your variables will have to be global, and you'll definitely have to create 2 ttimes the graphics ...

What's the problem here? Last time I checked, The Soul Reaver team didn't copyright or trademark plane shifting. In fact, such a generalized idea is so much common knowledge that it's bound to be used endlessly. Perhaps they borrowed the idea from the Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Either way, everyone, consciously or not, is going to borrow elements from other places.

Yeah I know, the goal is to be a little less conspicous when you do it , and I've played that Zelda along with all of recent ones
based upon the shifting of Space and Time, The point is don't take the main concept...otherwise the brilliant concept (in its origianl element) becomes gimmicky and out of place when its jammed into your game.

The Dursleys had not changed much in the ten years that had passed, the only thing that was different was the pictures on the wall. Before, they looked like a pink beach ball wearing different colored bobble hats.

Not nessasarily 2* the graphics. I would imagine that CS comes with at least two or three terrain types(swamp, forest, etc), besides indoors, so I could simply use one for one plane, and another for the other. Although I might still have to create some new graphics, I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.
