general How do you feel about Halloween?
Magic_Spark replied to PlzDelete's topic in General Discussion
Thanks. I made the horn myself. Used a event led that was in a round thing they were going to toss and put it in the tip of the horn. It changes color too. -
general How do you feel about Halloween?
Magic_Spark replied to PlzDelete's topic in General Discussion
When I took out my horse I had those light up toys and a few stickers. The kids loved them more than the candy... -
That was a surprise when I saw that. I had no idea she could play. hehe Took Pinky by surprise too.

Magic_Spark replied to PlzDelete's topic in General Discussion
I like taking my horse out for Halloween. Last time I took her out I dressed her up to look like a unicorn. -
Thanks everypony. I will pass on the kind words to her when I see her again.

My Little Pony: The Game
Magic_Spark replied to Rikifive's topic in Pony Games, Apps, and Dev Projects
Just looked at the engine. Very nice but it looks like it costs. Now if you already payed for it then your good. (I also have experience with Unreal engine as well. Its what the taught us in college) The engine I use is great as it has a large community support, its free, and you can develop for the iphone/ipad/android and I believe it does do Xbox. (Not sure about PS4) I am in no way suggesting you change. Just thought I would let you know of its existence as its free of charge. Source code included. Also I know how to develop for this engine as I have had a license since 2001. Just have not been able to get people to develop games with. :/ Last couple of game groups I was with were too much into wanting to do state of the art. I tried to get them to start off slow and do things gradually but no one bothered to listen. I use a game engine that is free. They have a 2d and 3d version. Here is a link to the 2d version of the game engine site. http://www.garagegames.com/products/torque-2d Creating sprites by hand is very tedious and its why I said that most go with 3d models and then animate them and render the frames needed. I have all the pony's geometry and can texture them any way you want. Rendering them out would be simple for me as I have all the tools. I must have spent about 10k for the stuff I have. Not all at once but over a period of the past 5 years. I have a license for Maya, 3ds Max, Motion builder, Zbrush, 3d-Coat, Mudbox, Torque3d (I payed for the version that allows web publising) and several other applictions for programming and digital painting. Too many to list. Hope your game gets going well and it looks like your off to a good start.- 445 replies

Noted. I did read prior to posting. What I offer is minimal and I have a lot of resources at my disposal. I own my own equipment and can make all sorts of stuff where the only cost to me is electricity and time. As far as making a place thats if there is enough interest. Otherwise I do not want to waste the admin's time with one small post. Thanks.

My Little Pony: The Game
Magic_Spark replied to Rikifive's topic in Pony Games, Apps, and Dev Projects
What game engine are you using. Read a lot of posts and didn't see it. I went to college for games. What most do is use 3d models and render out the sprites from there. Makes animation much easier in some cases. Other than that what your doing is good. Keep it up.- 445 replies

I own a 3d printer, a milling machine, air brush and wood carving equipment. I am currently working on a prop for a real horse. Its for a costume based on MLP I can do engravings and carve on my milling system. Here are a few things I did MLP related. Plastic wood or metal. Just wanted to let others know I have some skills and can help with things. I also know electronics and can do things like robotics and led lit signs.

Ok not read any google article but my answer is based on the show itself. The ponies are very strong. Applejack can kick the tree to cause the apples to fall down. When she lost her cutiemark she lost her strength. What makes earth ponies strong is the magic they all have. When they do not have magic they are weaker. Same thing with Pegasus ponies. They can fly for very long times and walk on clouds. Unicorns are powerful with the magic and do not have the same type of strength as earth and Pegasus ponies. Alacorns are a mix of 2 and are more powerful than the rest due to the magic they can wield. Without magic they are weak and cannot fly or do much. This much we learned when Twilight had to defeat Tierak.

What everyone can see is that the show is based off of human experiences. The characters are personalities that are human designed. Its why we relate to them. Now with that point aside. The main take from the show is this. These characters through their lives are destined to learn about love and bonding friendships. The lessons are all the same from that perspective. They all point to the person who is not behaving properly and how they are changed through friendship and love from another. In reality this works when we have no other issues that prevent this. Unfortunately we have things that cause people to be mean and nasty even if you show them kindness and love. So the people who gravitate to the show are more likely to be friendly and can be good people than the rest of those who shun the show. In my experience I miss the love and joy companionship gives. When its not there its like there is something missing. A good friend fills that void.

Will The Map Call Discord?
Magic_Spark replied to FemaleIntrovert1995's topic in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion

Since there is no mention of his passing we have to assume he is still alive somewhere... or sometime? There could have been a spell he cast that has him elsewhere maybe in another dimension. Wouldn't that be cool if Twilight finds a way to bring him back? He is one of the most powerful magical ponies and probably even more powerful than Twilight is. One thing is for sure there is a story here and it needs to be told. Hopefully the creators will do this at some point.

spoiler Could the map be creating an Elements of Harmony 2.0?
Magic_Spark replied to FlareGun45's topic in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion
I really do not think the elements are for any of them. They are connected to them through their Personal traits but none of the main 6 own them. The map is connected to the Tree but not directly to the elements. Its a magical table that knows where problems are and picks the best pony or subject to go. Spike can even be called (Pretty much anyone who lets friendship in their hearts). The elements are magical gems that were brought together by Princess Celestia who used them but she did not own them. Also there is a connection to the alternate dimension (Equestria Girls) where the magic seeped out and created new elements similar in nature to the ones in Equestria. There was one extra one as well which Sunset received. The magic seems to choose who wields it and you have to allow friendship in your heart. If you try to use it as Sunset did when she acquired Twilights crown it turns you into a power crazed demon or similar. Pinky's sister Maud suggested to Starlight that there are certain gems that can give her powers that would allow her to rule. This suggests that there is a way to have more power than the Elements do. I cannot say it would be more powerful than the friendship power the main 6 uses to defeat lord tirek. There are still unexplored gems and places in this land and Just about anything your imagination could run with is possible. -

I do not require worshipers. Just looking for friends. Thanks for the kind words and I do hope to be helpful and follow the 5 rules of friendship.

How can the show further develop Twilight?
Magic_Spark replied to heavens-champion's topic in MLP:FiM Canon Discussion
Twilight has already a lot on her plate. She has to maintain her friendship in Equestria and she has to maintain balance with her friends in the alternate universe. She also is looked on when there is a grave threat to Equestria. So it would be logical that her next duty would be to close the magical rift between the worlds. At the end of "Legend of Everfree" there was a bit about how there is still a tear in the two dimensions. It would be her job to close it. Next she could face other threats from lands like where lord tirek came from or others. The areas have not been explored yet. (Like the griffins and dragons) Many lessons with those. Should keep them very busy. We have seen one of the main 6 parents and there can be episodes on them as well. Maybe learn about life and death as one of them could have died during a struggle prior to the elements of harmony. A good episode would be one that explains why they are so important. What makes them more special than the rest other than the ability to wield those elements. Celestia did it on her own so what is it that makes it possible? Could be an interesting one with a backstory of the elements themselves. Another idea is more backstory on Discord? Where did he come from? Are their more like him? -
Hello all and hope everypony is having a good day/night. I am just another newbie here to see whats up with like minded pony folk. I enjoy good conversation and art. As an artist myself I like to do several things so I am not an expert at any of them but I am good for my analytical thinking and problem solving skills. I enjoy time with friends and my horse. Yes I have a horse. Some call her a pony but she is actually smaller than most ponies. She is a miniature and 31" tall. Here is a picture of her. You might say that I have a real MLP LOL
