Heya,

Yes, I've definitly stopped working on EMPIRE. It's the time for me to work on new things, the gm portal (that's almost 100% finished unless peeps ask for new commands), some web tools (various editors) and either a single player mode or a new server on 6.2, atm I dunno.

Belfedia is right, I prefer developping things that administrating them.

Trax is officially the new ServerOP. He owns everything related to the server (codes, binaries, database, quests, website, features).The only things I know is he won't make Empire running on a dedicated host wich, i think, is a mistake but its his choice.

Though it will be a few months(later february at LATEST) I'm gonna run the old ass database Mag had made public run with a dedicated server. Even if only five people play, IMO Empire needs to be on a dedicated server.

I don't -know- Trax or his brother really, but without Magoth, I personally do not think Empire will be as great. I'm not planning on doing ANYTHING to the database. I believe the original Empire with the original quests/zones/items was what we loved. I may take out lavastorm/solb(and epic2s) and keep it simple with the South Karana/Splitpaw zones and level limit 30.

I deffinately want full corpse looting.

I'll have to spend some time coding for the pvp points but shouldn't be long. Anyways, Magoth, reply what you think. I don't want to go through the trouble and money if you don't want me running it.

Yea like I said, without Magoth it is pretty dead.

Magoth, how you plan on making the single player deal? That would be really cool to have a single player EQ... a lot of good ideas could go into that. Well anyway, lemme know how it goes with that.

""I'll have to spend some time coding for the pvp points but shouldn't be long. Anyways, Magoth, reply what you think. I don't want to go through the trouble and money if you don't want me running it.""

-- Killawen, go for it there is no copyright on empire. If you want to see some PvP points code adds, check in the forum, there is an explanation on how to add them.

""Magoth, how you plan on making the single player deal? That would be really cool to have a single player EQ... a lot of good ideas could go into that. Well anyway, lemme know how it goes with that.""

-- The single player thing is a big project. A single man couldn't do that alone I guess or it would take ages. And even if that was the case, my english is not good enough to add some well written roleplay/story quests.
-- We can create a little community and write all the ideas on a paper at first.
-- What would be nice would be to have a little group of players who played different solo rpgs (bladur gates, morrowind, ff, etc...) to bring the good solo ideas. What they liked in thoses differents games, what they didn't, etc.. Also, we would need to have a coder who knows how to make possible to have multiples NPC's pets (3-4) in order to control a group. Each pet must have a certain AI (ex: cleric->heal, shaman->buff, enchanter->cc, etc..) and be grouped. That's a lot of work for sure but I think it'd worth it as long as the project is modulable and we can add things without recreate everything.

Well I think I will create a new website soon so we can start to write all the ideas and see if the project is really doable or not.
