Ok. As you might have known I was working on Eragon Online. This possibly will be the engine I will use for that game (unless GM6 comes out the the mplay is sped up enough that I can program a more real-time rpg like game) But in the mean time I decided to start programming an engine! The engine uses RM95 graphics but that dosen't matter because it isn't an actual "game". Without furthur rants I present some screenshots! ^^  ~ Getting some help from the Tutor NPC. Screenshot: drache.50free.org/gmud/blacksmith.JPG~ Asking the blacksmith for offers. No inventory system, no items for sale! Lol Screenshot: drache.50free.org/gmud/bridge.JPG~ Ahh... Looking out into the creek. Little message I added on the global chat console. The game allows 7 other players to connect (that makes 8 players with the host). And people can disconnect and reconnect and disconnect and then reconnect again without there being any errors or bugs. Update News- Player VS Player combat - Working inventory + Dropping/picking Items up - Heavily encrypted character data - Four finished maps and going up everyday - New NPCs See my replies for most recent updates.An open-source of this will be released later. After I finish this, remove things such as character encryption, and add a small help document. Heh. Comment away on this marvelous work of art!  |

You are certainly doing a very good job and, motivation be let be, should have this game done soon. I'm doubting GM6 will have better mplay abilities, since he's just fixing up graphics, but there's DLL's out there, and the Socket DLL I've heard can be useful, so you may consider looking there. Take it easy on the screenshots, though. Us 56k users have trouble loading all that in a decent amount of time. You may consider just linking them, rather than having them displayed right away, or making thumbnails that link to the large picture. |

I've gotten a ton done. I'll be releasing a beta here soon. Very soon. ;D I've completed stuff that no one else in Game Maker has ever done (or so I know of).
- - - - -
Improved Player VS Player combat (less bugs = more fun)
A working inventory where you can:
- Move objects around
- Drop them on the ground (which other people can see too)
- Pick items up (that you or someone else dropped)
Better level up system (use to be impossible to get to level 14, now I'm level 330 and still going up. Of course thats because I have an EXP increaser to test it)
Players and objects can be in different rooms and not be seen by other players if they aren't in the same room.
I've nearly completed four maps and will start on the caves.
And alot of new NPCs.
Oh yeah, the hud's sprite font was lagging the game a bit so I had to change it to a TTF (True-type Font).
- - - - -
I've DEFINATELY came along ways since I posted here. =D
New screenshots will be coming soon.
RPG Maker 95 graphics. I didn't make them.
I heard that he was going to improve the I-Net in DirectPlay programming.
I'm on 56k too. Next round of screenshots I'll do that and only put one up on the front.
Btw Ismavatar, you don't mind if I keep you as the saving NPC do you? I took people I know from the GMC and make them all NPCs for shops, random towns folk, etc.

Will you be telling people at the GMC to find it here? If so, that will be a great advertisement for these boards to get more members. I feel steriotyped because NPC = NPC = NPC. lol. Don't worry about it, I was just making a joke. |
