Shadows of the Past v0.9.3.0

[Magtheridon96]

- Nothing to do with all the gold you get. I have 2.4k gold and nothing to do with it. Need to add more armor, weapons, ability items and perhaps set items that combine when you collect all of them, boat to sail across the water to islands, buy treasure maps that show you where to get treasure from, etc.

- Very glad that I don't die now with 0 Hunger, but now whats the use in buying food now? Maybe make food extremely expensive but they give permanent bonuses? Like increased vision, Night time invisibility, Run faster, heal quickly naturally, etc etc. And once you have eaten ALL the food (a little diagram could show which foods you have eaten and which you haven't), it unlocks some special powerful ability

- Not enough quests. Once you do the 1 main quest and the 3 optional quests, there is absolutely nothing left to do. Need A LOT more optional quests and main quests.

- Needs a lot more variety in monsters / creeps.

- Needs bosses

No worries bro, -Kobas- is already working on a Quest System to make Quest Development extremely fast
... And I'm optimizing and fixing it

 

[-Kobas-]

Dark Powers and 3 quests, I failed to present everything.
The_Mirai was busy with university last 2 weeks so I just hide things with my fail English.

But this is more than enough to show you progress.
I usually need 30 min to completely add new quest (when I chat with The_Mirai on skype)
so you should see few more in new update.

Right now PROXY is working on new models.
Mag is working on new damage system.
while Bugz returned to help me and Remixed improve items and hero attribute systems.

Expect huge progress and core changes in gameplay.

New attributes interface will soon be presented as well.

Who are you?

 

[Remixer]

Who are you?

I have always been thinking that you do not know your own father....

"Who are you" Uhm epic question from nick name "Unknown"?

 

[Bugz]

A guy with 5posts, not called TheMirai. Why should he post about story?.. That was the own question i asked about Remixer. And yes i do know my father, don't think i am stupid. Also my nickname does not matter with my question?

 

[Remixer]

It was a joke Nothing against you

 

[Bugz]

It was a joke Nothing against you

Glad to hear, me either. :-D

 

[Remixer]

We should chat some time tomorrow and talk about making the skill system etc

 

[Bugz]

You and me? Or -Kobas-.

 

[Remixer]

You and me? Or -Kobas-.

All of us

 

[Bugz]

Well, lets meet at skype.

 

[Tank-Commander]

Can't wait to see the finished version of this, great work guys.

 

[gorillabull]

why dont you make this multiplayer nothing is fun when you play alone

 

[Adiktuz]

making this multiplayer will first require him to remove half of the maps file size because 8MB is the limit on multiplayer... and if nothing is fun when played alone, then there wouldn't be any successful SPRPG's out there... Final Fantasy, Elder Scrolls and a lot more wouldn't be succesful if that is the case...

 

[gorillabull]

yea... then you have the ones that are actually played like tkok and twilights eve even gaya's
i tried it and it is ok, have to give it some time before you start enjoying it the enviormental detail is exceptional however the terrain textures such as the grass are not something that should be used, the terrain would look better if you used original lordaeron dark grass, these current textures remind me of counter strike with their big pixels

 

[marko9]

Story that Kobas has on his mind could not be told throu MP like Gaias could also all the sistems are made expecialy for SP so making this an ORPG curently is not an Option.

 

[Adiktuz]

Actually, I've never yet seen an MPRPG with a storyline that could compare to SPRPGs...

Also, an MPRPG can be hard to play when you and ur friends don't have common time...

anyway, I like how things are going with this project, can't wait for when the new systems are implemented...

 

[Deadballs]

Nice Map!!

 

[gorillabull]

yes you are right about what you are saying

so what about the starting cinematic i dont get it why dont you add a sky

 

[Adiktuz]

maybe he could add sky, its still early in development anyways...

 

[Remixer]

yes you are right about what you are saying

so what about the starting cinematic i dont get it why dont you add a sky

I think he wants to point out (with those text) "so legends are born and died" that "this" world is unexplored and you never can know what waits for. That is my opinion of couse you can ask from himself.

 

[Magtheridon96]

The damage system is almost done

 

[Remixer]

The damage system is almost done

Nice job mag(nataur)! You think -Kobas- is going to release new version with new features soon?

 

[-Kobas-]

Well new version will come out on 1st may.
But this version will be so badass you won't believe, I will stop making progress posts now, and I just want to say that version will probably move to 0.5.x.x.
Yes it will be half finished.

 

[Adiktuz]

wow, a 0.2.5 version jump... makes me excited... XD

 

[gorillabull]

where did you get these tree models, did you have them custom made for your map i have not seen them around at all

 

[Magtheridon96]

I'm guessing he got them from the UTM

edit

Map Size: 32x32
Playable Map Size: 32x32

;o
Wut

 

[Lifee_72]

The map looks good but..how do you heal? i can't find fountain of life or something...
Suggestions: I played only thief,idk about the other classes,im lvl 2 atm but why isn't there a hotkey for the spell at lvl 1..I suggest you to add hotkeys for all spells and some info in F9 would be very useful.Nice map Kobas.

Spells are lacking hotkeys because of the new spell system that came in currect version. The hotkey will be added later.

 

[Magtheridon96]

I just came here to make my 4000th post.

I'd also like to apologize for the delay. The Damage system is incredibly complex code-wise.
Managing it and making it run perfectly is a very difficult job, which is made harder by the fact that the design is recursive.

 

[Adiktuz]

I smell some really cool damage system (code-wise)... XD...

 

[Magtheridon96]

The damage system is complete!
670 lines long, and a 200-line core function ; )

 

[Adiktuz]

Woah... I smell it, I smell epicness... XD...

 

[Bugz]

Good job, maggy.

 

[gorillabull]

wooooooow 600 lines for a dmg system?!?!?!?!? +MEGA REP!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Remixer]

That small?

 

[gorillabull]

why yours is longer?

 

[-Kobas-]

You will see many new core changes and new systems in new version
Please team members and contributes keep info for yourself

 

[Bugz]

Alright, i keep anonymous for now. If any teammember, contributer wants to contact me. Pm me

 

[The Wizard]

previous version was better. no main quests and individual abilities, right?

btw, you haven't fixed that bug(see scrn)

 

[sammath]

Downloading and testing because is one of the most higher ratting!!

 

[Magtheridon96]

@The_Wizard:
To me, that came up as a black picture.
Is that intended?

 

[Rhadamanthus]

Are all the classes supposed to have the exact same skills?

 

[-Kobas-]

Are all the classes supposed to have the exact same skills?

In this version yes, classes define item types you can carry.

 

[The Wizard]

@The_Wizard:

damn, that's not good

but you should just look at my post at bug report thread when i speak about "axesword model". on this screen there is an axe model without any weapons in inventory(only shield). -Kobas- said he fixed this bug but i can't say so anymore

 

[paulocanton]

This map is ridiculously good. Holy crap.

 

[-Kobas-]

There you go, new version.
Sorry for small delay I was busy these days both with school and friends

Please report all bugs and silly errors, because of many new systems I can't say that I don't expect them.
I tested it few times quests, items and everything else was ok.

Enjoy.

 

[Magtheridon96]

It's nice to know that the systems I wrote work fine
(At least I hope so D
