(Evil demon overlord of the alakamin server here!)

Sorry about that, i'm currently experimenting wtih my own source code updates to the server exes

remember it's still in beta, so it will be going down and up constantly like a cheap gnomish prostitute

once I finish getting these changes to my source on there, i'll be tweaking/making content, and the only server hiccups will be for updates to content. and will be short.

it's up now,

but I can't seem to get my custom item pricing to do what I want. I'll smack it around this weekend.. next two days are crazy for me

until I can find some helping hands and get some more off time it will be developed slowly.. that is the best way I think anyways, it gives me time to have people break things and let's me think things through one step at a time.. instead of suffering from the "mr wee" syndrome alot of people probably go through when they start off.

my biggest problem is that I can't seem to figure out the method of creating npcs

I managed to find a merchant editor that works (still can't seem to actually make an npc though haha.), and im building everything with queries, so that when I rollback to db backups or grab updates from cavedude's peq, I can quickly convert it to my world

anyways i'll stop there, this is beginning to sound like a support post ! it is just an update post I swear.. haha

Sorry bout double post ...



But Mate , have u forwared your ports and things?

Still no access

its on seerver selection but cnt get though

[Cvinion]

yea server says its up but not allowing connections just FYI boss man

[bowmaster]

yea , comeon foward ports :d

i wanna play

i loved the FV on live

[Davood]

hmm that is good to know.

i'll DMZ the server for now, my router is being silly, I have the ports forwarded.

[Davood]

basically it's based on cavedude's PEQ Db, slowly i'm going to change things.

There will be npc merchants selling tacvi, anguish, and demiplane of blood gear,

and once I get some free time i'll plan out and slowly create the queries to add in fabled items, along the lines of a 0.1% chance for a regular npc/named/boss to have one fabled item from the fabled table for that npc

basically most of the work i'll be doing will be around the items, and merchants, so you can get a "near live" experience.

i'll look into bots as well after I have locked down all the items and merchants.

as of right now
nothing is nodrop, and there is no "requird" level on anything, only "Reccomended" levels. I moved the req level to the recc field where the rec field was 0, I left the lore tags alone. Lore actually sort of makes sense from a story standpoint. But required level is silly, reccommended makes mor sense, as a less skilled player won't be able to make as good use of armor or weapons as a more skilled player... but why should he be completely unable to hold th sword in his hand?

i'll make a full feature/changelist once i'm comfortable with my design decisions. at which point ill also discuss what i'm working on and probably (soon?) unleash a website with basic info, and stats (maybe)

[bowmaster]

Sweet , s0ouinds good , hopefully we can login sometime , hmm preaps turn of a anti virus , Double check your ports etc , sorry this souinds like a rant but i'm eager to log on


Mob Wise , how hard will mobs be etc

Can they be 1grouped or will they be hard ?


And EXP , is it 0.8xp like live or is it slighty increased ?

i think slighty increased or double or W/E be good cuz of the Increased lvl cap

[bowmaster]

Sorry , What does DMZ mean ?

[Cvinion]

Still down, if you could try resetting server it may help, I don't know alot about running a server im just throwing out ideas.

There are quite a few servers like this, I wish there was a simple solution

[bowmaster]

ITS WORKING P I'M ON !!!!

others please come on , its boring on me own
