Adventures Open Rpg Needs You!!

Map Name: Adventures Open RPG
-This is not the final name just somethign to call it while the story is being determined.
Size: Epic (256 x 256)
Camera Style: Like Legacies TOS
-Camera veiw fromt he back of the units head liek in many rpgs suck as DAoC
, WoW, and Lineage II...
Special Movement: Arrow Keys will control your movement.

Features:

1. Proportional Buildings: Unlike the regular warcraft all units will be proportional.. or if ur 7 years old the buildings will be big enough so it looks like the units can go inside.

2. MultiClass System: For any of you avid rpg players who have played "Final Fantasy" or "Ragnarok Online" you will know about the job change system. Basically you start of as one class(novice) advance to a higher class(lets say fighter) and that class turns into a higher much stronger class wich will be selected depending on the first class u SELECTED(fighter) I will not give any example of third level jobs til later ;))
3. All buildings Are Explorable: All of the important buildings will let u explore the inside of them.. except for miscalaneous houses that serve no purpose..
4. Savable Heros: Since this map will be over battle.net, it will feature a save/load code trigger so you dont have to explore the map all in one sitting.
5. Over B.net: You can play this map over battle.net with others.
6. Explorable Dungeons: Caves and such you will be able to go inside.
8. NAME system: Trying to develope a system where at the beggining of the game you can name your hero... not that this may not be possible.
9. Advanced Creeps: All creeps will be able to become stronger from killing the heros since it is more realistic.... This also means A certain class that can tame monsters will eb able to tame any monster in the game and level them .... unlike lame summons that become useless by the end of the game like in other rpgs.
10. Advanced Weapons: Weapons will be usable depending on class and will effect the way u look- Hellfire Axe will make ur weapon glow this fire.

**note Could you maybe check for spelling errors before your post?Because there is alot.**

Sounds like a pretty big map.If it is going to have a saveable hero code then You should have the max level higher than 50,unless it's really hard to level up....And will the save code save items too?

I might help with triggering,unit editing,spell editing if you want.

If you want me to help PM me

EDIT: I thought I was browsing around in the off-topic... let me read this...

Project looks pretty big to me. To put it as blunt as possible, don't you think it would be best just to join an other project before starting your own?

Also, please organize your thread a bit. It is very confusing.

Alright, well pretty much i have completed the first "town" whihc is an elven training ground for aprrentices to train, this town is the first out of 5 total in the game , and while is not actually a town , has all the neccesaties for a new player.....(items,healing and etc...) THIS WHOLE VILLAGE IS WALKABLE, meaning when u play this rpg through the Legacies TOS style camera veiw your hero will be able to walk up the stairs and around the platformed village.... Also completed is the forest around this town , where u fight small bears to gain levels.

Maybe the file size is too big? Have you converted it into a jpg. file?

I read over your posts, IK-II-IN-G, and it seems like quite a big chunk of work; although it would probably be worth all the effort. I have some suggestions, however:

• If this map is so big, it could be wise to lay off the skins for now. It'll help with people with slow internet connections/PC's.

• I'll be sincere. The name of the map (If it's the one you plan to keep) sounds dull. You might want to give it a bit of a thought.

• I strongly reccomend you to have some sort of storyline behind your RPG; not only does it help with Quest backgrounds, but it also gives the map a more rich atmosphere.

Apart from that, your project sounds real nice, and it looks more prepared than some others we see, that often float in and out of existance in a matter of days, sadly. I wouldn't be able to help you with anything substancial, as my vacations are approaching quickly (with the final exams) and I won't be able to fiddle with the PC much.

However, I could give a shot at the storyline if you'd like to. All I'd need to have is a basic plotline you'd like me to follow. If you're interested, e-mail me at [email protected], and I'd gladly do it for you (Or just post it here, whatever you feel more comfortable with).

Good luck.

sound like a lot of work, and it sound great. but dont you think you will use to many custom files?

may i do a suggestion?
how about you made 2 versions of the map. first one is the map with all the custom files, and the second map is a anti-lagg map. no custom files, only the primary triggers, cinematics.

this is better for people who dont have a fast connection or comp.
and people who do can play the big map with all the custom files.(how many times did i mention custom files?)

anyway, this is just a idea. maybe its too much work to make 2 versions.

I have decided to lay off MOST of the custom files and only keep the very necesary ones, While it will lag some of the files imported MUST be kept, because they contribute to the actualy map and not just to the looks, i Will not make 2 versions of the map because that si silly.... But i will onyl add a few files that are ABSOLUTLEY required.....Now we have 4 ppl on the team and work will eb going alot faster , although it doesnt seem like much , the first area of the map is working where your hero will level to level 10. The map will only be 50 levels, so this is a big chunk of the game... Also , POSSIBILITY : MULTIPLE RACES..... this probably wont happen btu it is possible, and i am thinkign about it deeply ... i must consult with the team..... Neways, keep posting ill figure out the screen shot error.... If u would liek to help i am afraid that there are no spots left, BUT u can always post ideas/comments and help for things i need help with (i will post those things in this forum) and if i find anything you said useful, i will giveu a minor credit in the Quests Menu.... STILL HAVING PROBLEMS MAKING A LEGACIES TOS STYLE CAMERA VEIW HELP!!!!

Well, I got started on the story as of now, and it should reach you (I'll send it to your e-mail) by tomorrow. I probably won't be so frequent through the next days until Sunday, because of the Thanksgiving holidays.

However, I have two requests:

• I could use a copy of the map, so that I could position some of the events of the story better. You know my e-mail, so might as well send it there (If it doesn't bug you). ;)

• Also, if it wasn't much trouble, you could send along with the above a list of the team. This request is just from my curiosity. ;)

Well, that's all. Talk to you later.

How To Play In This Area

Uh... wha? I guess it is just a normal RPG or a 3D view.

Heh, this map sounds good, I know how to do alot of the stuff you included in your first post, including the camera. I also have lots of ability ideas from another TOS style map I was working on with another guy. PM me if you want to contact me because I don't check certain threads all that often.
