Windcatcher, you bring good things to life!
I'm glad Purcevil's ideas incited this code implementation. It sounds brilliant! It's what I think a lot of people have really wanted. I'm pretty sure that the theory of this program will work full-function in practical use. You basically tell the client, "swap this for now, then change it back", and it can be done infinite times, as long as disk space exists (minimal at a few Megs)?
Does the server just need to know zonepoints and zone names to trigger the alias?
Would it be a good idea to have a simple way to add custom zones? What do you think the best way to add them would be? Should we incorporate that into mangoo's tools?
Could you refresh me on what tools can be used to create zones and textures? Is there a freeware (linux) program that I can use to create images of creatures, items, or terrain?
I want to poke around with this.
