  1. As per topic viewtopic.php?f=33&t=4389 The Front page will be changed over this coming weekend. No new content yet this is basically an update to get the site back into shape and ready for new content that will be coming it's way next month. Downtime "should" not happen :
  2. "Worksafe" Dunno if you guys have herd of the term. But I'll also be backing a "Worksafe" version of the WG fic and template for the forum. Basically a picture free just black and white boring version of the site for those that are at work!
  3. On the new version of the WG-Fic site all will be the same for the stories on a clear background (not decided what colour).
  4. The first thing I'm doing this weekend is updating the WG.com part of the site. This is main page of the site and has you can guess is basically what people see before you get into the rest of the site. Soooo here's the first thing. 1. There will be no new content for the update on this coming Sunday. This update to WG.com is all about testing templates and seeing what works and works well. 2. I'm only interested in 3 web browswers working. IE 6 (there are still poor sods using it but I'll not be overly concerned about it looking well just that it works) IE 8 and Firefox 3.5. If you're not using them... well let me know but I'll not doing anything so advanced this site should stay working if it does so already for you. 3. I'm cutting out the Webring from the site. 4. I'll be updating the Links section of the site and doing something to the credits section. Affter WG.com is updated over the next two weeks I'll be looking at the WG-Fic site to give it a make over like WG.com. Note again no new content will be there, just the site being more readable. The classic version of the site though (basically whats there has I type this) will be going into the GFA which will have a section for the old versions of the WG-Fic sites (note this section might be updated later on by Willl... but that's up to him for the time table) Stars Guyver page will be the next target after the above. But will have to compete for my time with Sevendays Part 7 (note no matter what this will be the last part of that story line).
  5. Over the next month I intend to have a new template in work to change the WG.com site. Simple question for the guys that visit the site the most. What is the resolution on your computer you like when viewing websites?
  6. I'd aggree with Matt here. Japan-Ledgend will be even when Star's is updated the site to go to for info about the comics beyond book 8. What I put up in Star's if I scan ahead of Book 8 will not be translated at all (not asked them about this but I doubth they'd mind, chances are there'll be a link to their site saying that's the place to go for translations). Has for making a retail section on the site it's not something yet I plan to do. But I will be making a section of Star's decated to how to BUY Guyver stuff. Considering I need to buy book 6 onwards there'll be some real life experance to this update.
  7. Ok where to start. This site (namely the new version) needs a major update and also overhaul. So what does this have to do with the science forum? Well in a way it's this. Star's is a page where only offical canon is to be in the website. Weither it be Guyver art or Guyver facts and stories. So should it also be for data files . What I'd like to know is what you guys who like this part of the forum would like to see in this site. Both for your debates in this part of the forum and also for the improvement of info for people to do Guyver based fan stories.
  8. I saw this last week, and I've to say it was great Up there with the likes of Star Wars for a great story.
  9. Yup, now IF I get the fic done in time and James is up to it you'll see some interesting results. Also a fair amount of Data Files being updated. Thinking about this more though some stories will need an overhall for this to work. I'm in a way thinking of now doing this first to get me back into the story while writing the main black of what will be 7 days final chapter. The Guyver Fan Archive will be getting an overhaul too has the old version fictions and data files will find there way in there along with the really old versions of the site.
  10. He's be more powerful alright than what he is now and has McAvoy said would get some added features. But given the amount of time the Matrix had it wouldn't be greater than the Enforcer once was. If time wasn't a factor though yes Promtheus would basically be an alternative version of the Enforcer. Most likely the same power level but smaller and more compact do to the Matrix's more advanced nature.
  11. To put it into perspective. IF the Matrix and time wasn't a factor was involed you could take a rat and turn it into an an Eliminator using only raw materials of cave slime. Would take ages but that's the point of the Matrix. The main reason the Matrix uses parts of Relics, Guyver units etc is because it speeds things up greatly allowing it to complete it's goal (whomever gave it that goal).
  12. Thanks guys for the support. I'll be first buratlly honest here. I don't give a monkeys if someone uses the data files of the fiction to make their onw take ont he story. In the end that's their choice and all the more power to them for doing so. If they do it will enough Will might even add them to the GFA site depending on his mood! Anyway back to the the topic. I've decided a few things. First off is the fiction has being too overly powered and DBZ like. But it was all done by donest mistakes based on what we knew at the time. The main idea for Chonicals was for it to fix this things. I then continue on the story has is . But that lead onto 7 days and well it just dragged the story out of me and there went the fun. So first and formost while it's not an easy choice to make. There will be ret cons, some minor and mostly they will all be minor. If we loook at Dreadnought for example even if we keep his power level the same he shouldn't be so over powered. IF we got things correct the Warrior Guyver has he was before any upgrades would be about half the power level of a Gigantic Guyver. With the Dreadnought amour if thing where correct he would be about 2 times the power level of a Gigantic Guyver with maybe another 30% on top of that. While still the same level has he is now others around him should be a lot more powerful. This evens out th estory one hell of a lot. taking this into account and then looking back at the old stories will happen over time. So you can get an idea yourself if you look at the old fictions what should have happened if Dreadnought wasn't so over powered. The Guyver Zoalord story though would mostly be ok and strangely this would have the biggest impact on Strange Worlds where Dreadnought wouldn't have defeated the 11 Zoalords sooo easily while the Alkanphel fight would be mostly ok. Sooo heres the plan. First off finish 7 Days. Taking the above into account it will not be a pretty match with older fictions in terms of power levels but to be honest this shouldn't give a huge impact to the story and it matching up. Second I need to do a lot of ret cons to the old stories starting off with Union. Overall this will bring no major changes but things just have to make sense reading the old fiction for the new stuff to be done. 3rd This will also happen with a new site deisgn for the WG fic section and a new WG.com front page and overall site. The Forum will also be getting a face lift. Those fancey designers out there who have cool little Guyver logos etc that they would like to see on the forum please post on another tread and lets get something nice and properly Guyver together. 4th. Star's Guyver page is then my next target it's time this site also got a face lift and new stuff out numbered the old. This will be done arouond the same time has 2 because both are relevent to each other (this will become an on going project and might in fact happen before 7 days is complete). 5th some new short stories based around filling in plot gaps. This will mainly focus on the Guyver Powered Zerabubuse and a show down between him and Dreadnought. This will explain why Dreadnought has a respect for the GPZ by the time of 7 Days. 6th Finally some new stories. Starting off with a new character that isn't a Guyver, Zoaform or something from the Creator (well very in directly them but not the them of this universe) or Grakken forces. "She" (your ownly hint) will be the main character of the story and Dreadnought will only have some minor things happening based around New Cork but that's not the main focus of the story. Has it stands this is an all story based part with zero fights planned so far to even out the crazyness that happened in 7 Days the dust needs to settle and this is the time it happens. 7th a Guyver 4 story filling in what happened while Dreadnought was away in the Strange Worlds story. And then well that'll be saying but hint = Fiona and it'll be a more action based story. If I get all that done I'll be one happy fic writer again and get back to some art work too. But overall the above is more important to me than getting drawings done. From what I remember I think we've more art done that characters out there! You guys just haven't seem them :/ Now lets just hope James is still in the editing mood. P.S. Note old versions of the fiction and possibly the WG site has it is will appear in the archive so don't worry if you liked the old version of the story, that will still be there for you to read. P.P.S. don't know if I'll do 1 to 7 has they are but overall it should happen that way depending on my urge to get Star's site updated first or not.
  13. This is both a bit of Necro of an old tread but from what Matt said it does also reflect on what I feel about the story. I thought about this quite a bit and well here's where I've ended up. Being burtally honest to myself I let the giney out of bottle when Dreanought graced the fanfic and combined with that the sheer amount of different types of units. Yup he's fun and having a large cast gives more of a story but in the end it's not a pure Guyver story. Don't get me wrong it's being fun but in the end the story wrote itself out in Seven Days plot being too big and at times boring to write. This is mainly because I viewed the story has the last chance to fatten up the cast before future stories will see their numbers decline (that's about has much of a hint you guys are ever goin to get ). So here's the thing. 1. I over all like the story. But to get back writing it I have to for my own sanity get the story back to a point where it's fun and the out of control number of Guyver's is suddenly going to find future plans kicked in the nuts and cut own to make the story work. Future planned stories will work VERY well and being burtally honest the sheer number of cast members isn't needed so IF I return expect death.. lots of death and pain. OVerall this is a fiction I want to end and end well but it has to be worth writing. What happened before being respected so there will be no ret-cons. Has Matt said the story turned into DBZ... I don't like that cartoon sooo well there ye go why the fic found itself in lymbo for ages. It has taken a long time for me to get back to a stage where I actually am considering writing again and Seven days is something I dread going back to so need an honest to God good injection of the proper origanal Guyver story before I even dare too. 2. I would like to push the reset button on the whole fan fic. I don't want to do a Star Trek and suddenly have Cyber Guyver reset the story buy killing Jason etc. If and when I do this it will basically be a new begining totally. Basically a lot of the WG fan fic has to do with the lack of what I know now. So expect something a LOT truer to what Takaya wrote though again with the same basic premiss of the Warrior Guyver being that Jason is there in the Warrior Unit. But everything else would be changed, so no Creators, no Solom no well everything but what has happened since Timewar minus the Grakken and a newer story and there you have the re-defined story. Overall the Orginal Warrior Guyver isn't an overpowered beast, a Gigantic Guyver is in fact more powerful so the idea just works for me. Recent events in the books all taken into account this would be a interesting place to go. Option 2 though will not happen until 1 is complete or at least in a good place where you guys aren't waiting 5 years + for updates. In the end simply holding a gun to the story and obliterating it isn't something I want to do myself. Apart from 7 Days rest of the story that is planned is great to think about and not so draining.
  14. Don't think it would actually work has easily has that. The Enforcers creation process takes the resorces of a whole War World to create, bond and process and takes AGES to make right. While the result would be powerful than what would have happened with the commander I don't think the net result would have being greater than a true Enforcer and not in a scale that would match it easily.
  15. Looking for an idea for getting back into guyver fan are for the fic. What would be your number 1 choice for the next picture I should try and do? Doesn't matter if it's one I've done before as tbh I need to get used to drawing again so this will be ever much a test picture. : See ye laters, Brian
  16. Look insteresting, something for Jimmy to have a read of: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/01/16 ... pp_latest/
  17. Hmmm dream job work only on fan fic!
  18. It was a great movie, "I can make this pencil disapear" was both funny and scary all at the same time
  19. I'm not, nor never going to delete WG.com But much like Matt I do wonder how Takaya would view the fiction. But in the end, I didn't write it for him, I did it for fun and to give something that was mine to play with in the Guyver fiction. Met some great people through this site but in the end it is something I've very little time for these days (I started this site a LONG time ago and moved house for example some 10 times since then). In the end I wouldn't mind if someone wanted to complete the story. And in the end would simply aggree with James if he choice someone to work with. As for the site itself, it remains something I still have great fun reading whenever I get the time to do so. :
  20. Simple answer is "unknown" at this time. But in terms of control medal shape they would fit. But in terms of Tech the question is how different is the control medal from the basic Warrior Guyver prototype which (aka Fiona's unit) and would Jason let her use the Dreadnought armour.
  21. I liked the character but to me it's more of a either 1 story character or something that needs to be wrote in a totally different angle to Warrior Guyver as the main ability of the character has wide ranging effects and a lot of repeat elements to the story. For me I'd never us the character because if I wanted to do a time travelling event I'd use Dreadnought and I already have enough characters to us. I've nothing against anyone who tries to write a story based in the WG universe.
  22. As McAvoy said Jason does think things out. So he'd most likely find the most under populatated section of the Earth and hide out or head someplace that he'd not impact humanity at all.... That or he'd try and find a way to hibernate. As much as he hates Chronos though, he'd not take any actions he'd see as impacting on them and hteir creation. As he might as well kill himself and get it over with then as the Guyver Zoalord would then obliterate everything. Remember at this point there is no Dreadnought so he's no way of knowing what he could have trown away. Just to trow in another twist. What if he looked for another testing ground? Where would it have been and why is it no longer in use (hints are already in the fiction)?

    New Guyver Art

    Excellent work Omega
  24. I've been getting back into the Guyver story and got book 25 from Amazon JP last night. Today while doing some read up I've found something interesting. In Chapter 164 there is now a Guyver 4. She's female and looks very much like the Guyver 2 from the OVA. Interesting times ahead then.
