Eclipse 1.18 Beta

[deathdoorway]

Eclipse 1.18

I finally got permission from Lopaki to edit eclipse orpg and so I've started to edit the massive amount of bugs I found in this map. Currently I post everything in the eclipse main site http://clanmoe.freeforums.org. but i will start posting all information in this thread too.

Most of the stuff I have already done

• Lag reduction
• All spells to properly work
• Fix known glitchs that prevent proper gameplay
• Balance out some spells
• Fix the guides
• Limit boss drop item count to 1
• and many other small things

For v1.18 You can expect some of the following

• A range of attack and armors to further increase the difficulty
• All heros spells will increase to allow upgrades to go past lvl 60
• Add class sets for first 3 dungions (whats going to happen is 2 items per dungion for 5% drop rate that you can get. more will be explain about this later on)
• Limit dungion drops to 1 if more than 1 does happen then Class sets % will be 0% drop rate
• Adding a lvl 90 and 120 spell to the following heros Priest, Defender, Frost Mage
• Adding Item shops to the orc city
• Going to completely revamp first dungion (more will be posted later)

Currently I'm gonna release the beta to make sure all bugs are fixed before adding new content. So Here is a list of what is done and what isnt done yet.

List that i fixed

Out of all those items above you can expect some to come out so i can edit the map as we progress instead of making 1 super update. If you have any question you can ask me here or on clan moes forums. Yes people I do have permission to edit this map if you need to ask go to forums or talk to lopaki on Makemehost or bnet when ever he on German time.

I'd love to see the terrain improved, the last time I played, it was just frightening.
Nice to see someone updating the map.

 

[deathdoorway]

lol how was the terrain that bad? I'm not here to really make the terrain to look like a rain forest, It wouldnt hurt to see it look better i guess but as far as redoing majority of the terrain i cant do this task

 

[Nestharus]

You could also update the save/load system

http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/spells-569/encoder-2-0-2-2-a-189883/

= )

This is a map that is running on it ^)^. On CodeGen, it outputted a 34 char code. On Encoder, it's 9 to 23 chars.

http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/maps-564/pearleastkingdom1-9-a-187684/

anyways, gl with the ORPG. Eclipse was pretty ok, but soooo much grinding and miserably long save/load codes ;\.

 

[deathdoorway]

thanks for the encoder im sure ill put it to great use. but the code was about 13-15 chars not even as it is lol.

Im working on the grinding tech of the map to make it more interesting. I'm open for any ideas so shoot away

 

[Nestharus]

#1, every monster can be unique. Rather than just fight, fight, fight, you could take the Final Fantasy approach. Some monsters required special handling =).

You could also add in mini-games. Check out maze maps to get some ideas.

The bosses are pretty boring for the most part. You could make them much more exciting with concepts from maze maps.

Perhaps, make it so that skills are required to use some abilities. Dark Invasion 2 tried to add skill requirements to weapons (to a small degree) with the little cool down bar. You could come up with something interesting as well ; ).

A person shouldn't need to grind in an area for 10000 years. They shouldn't even need to grind at all. By adding quests to each area, you can then remove the grinding by making people complete tasks rather than just grind away. If you look at Oblivion, they did this beautifully with the guilds. Don't add stupid quests like kill 10 beetles or collect 10 wolf heads or w/e, really take from Oblivion for unique quests that perhaps are relevant to the class or story.

 

[deathdoorway]

If you wish to expand your idea off quest that would be appropriated. give an example cause in oblivion they are more like defeat this person close this gate. meet this person etc. more or less once in and lifetime thing
