Another (productive) list of problems

[Pirate Wings]

I'm good for ideas and enforcing the rules in place but thats it. I'm available for new ideas and improvements as for server space and etc i'll look around and see whats going for the cheapest and whats reliable and post any info that comes to hand.

The best type of games usualy are formed by a group of people and if you're seriouse about this I've got a bunch of improvements and a bunch of stuff stored on my computer that i'd like to see implemented into rpgwo. I just don't wanna see another game thats trying to copy another and failing cause afew people have done that and it ends up closing after afew months.

Good luck with it all though.

the bonus to making a game just like rpgwo but better is . . . . watching UT and Mick get pissed off as they loose all their playerbase and cant do nothing about it LOL.

If you got any idea how big the game is already code wise, converting it (or even doing it again) in C++ would be an absolute nightmare. And I cant see Mickey actually seeing the need to do it, he has a working system in vb, albeit slow. The ping time is high partly due to all the extra security bytets, checkbytes, and so on in the packets, to stop packet editing.

The reason the client doesnt do a lot of work is because someone who wanted to tiger the game up would find it much easier to do so, they would have more things they would be able to alter. Already things like shadow/fog processing are done in the client, which allows it to be 'hacked' away. Any previous hacks were done through client side verification (e.g If Textbox > 1 ... could be edited so it doesnt exist)

I tried making a rpgwo alternative (Scidhuv World) but the amount of coding involved is just ridiculous. I made an early beta and gave up - theres just so much to do and not enough time for me to do it

Well now we at least know what Mick went through =P

Although it was a work in progress for a few years.

I remember playing Scidhuv World Online; Staw Wars themed that's why I liked it.
