AXR Ear-Infecting Monkey 36 posts	YES! I'm making it! proud, yes I am.. free (but ofcourse) I LOVE the little yellow boolean soup character and I made some cheap but cute animations for him. I only have a little sample pic to share now. You can walk with mouse or keys, scrollover other players for their username (useful to have since you all look the same) and the water is animated (yey). Looks kinda crappy cuz I'm no pixel artist (Ariel Yust get to work ;)). But all in all its not that bad... I already have the online connection worked out.. its lookin good! I wanna add several map zones (not gonna be a smooth scroller), text messaging, weaponary/avatar, and some little adventures/quests would be kinda cool. .... Dev language? JAVASCRIPT?!?!@$?!@$ Sounds like a bad idea right? well, it probably is... but javascript and ajax are doin' their jobs... so im not complaining... Advice!!!! This game will represent boolean soup (mostly its little logo character) so, help with a name and cool ideas (that are feasible and appealing to the public) COOL! share thine thoughts!

Rincewind programmer 1548 posts	I'm really glad you started this game, I've always thought someone should do a MMORPG for people of DIV-Arena/Boolean Soup. Surely it would be fun if people could have either the yellow guy or a unique character designed by themselves, if that's possible. Being able to battle eachother would be cool too. Also, how about making a 'Fenix/DIV' town, a Blitz town and a DarkBasic town, and have them as enemies? We can ask the other communities to inhabit their towns and then have group fights, raiding eachother's town and burning everything. And maybe a Cafe/Inn building would be an idea, where we can hang out and chat as if we were in the #bilge chatroom. ____________ Personal website: http://www.loijson.com

Sandman F3n!x0r 1194 posts	Quoting Rincewind: And maybe a Cafe/Inn building would be an idea, where we can hang out and chat as if we were in the #bilge chatroom. A dark figure sits in the farthest corner of the dusty, old room of the Inn, built with a type of wood you don't recognize. He wears a long, black leather jacket, which has seen better days, for the colour is but a mere reflection of its former black. Now and then, when he brings the grotesque jug of the finest ale the bartender had to offer him to his mouth, something shiny in his sleeve reflects the orange glow of the weird-looking pillar of light, stretching from the floor to the ceiling. The lamp reminds you of older days in the city of Rae, where you met the lovely Jaryhn. The lights there had the same glow and you remember how her hair looked so pretty in it; so strangely mysterious. "Those were the days." you mumble, with a sigh, gazing thoughtlessly into the pillar of light. Suddenly you notice the dark figure is no longer there... ____________ BennuWiki Yes, my avatar has grey borders in IE (so get a decent browser) ROOFLEZ ROOFLEZ

Dennis どこかにいる 2097 posts	Javascript sounds like an OLD idea, rather than a bad. It sounds difficult too. I think a java applet would be much faster and also programmed faster with its built-in awt packages and such. Original though. Good luck. ____________ Kwakkel

AXR Ear-Infecting Monkey 36 posts	yey for ideas! Rincewind: I LOVE that idead. Have these unique programming towns and they battle or collaborate... coooool. Sandman: cool and WTF? I like the idea of uploading your own custom character, but people may abuse that and use a naked lady... (Yust, dont you dare). If I can figure out a way to let people upload their own 4 directional/4-step-animated png's to the database then Ill have that feature added... If you want that, I'll put all else on delay though, since i would never wanna change that later... If not upload your own characters, then at least having a choice of more than one would be nice... agreed. U mind drawing a map sketch layout? Like, no good gfx or anything... just white background black lines for trails, blue for water, you can have bridges, walls, and mark up the general location of the cities. This should be quite awsome. let the ideas flooooowww... ____________ SHALOM, MA NISHMA AcHI!?

AXR Ear-Infecting Monkey 36 posts	Id love to have done this with a java applet... BUT I can't figure out how to access my web server from my applet???!!! See my website has an IP. And then then database computer itself ALSO has an IP (its a router based system). How could I tell java to access the database given that the server IP = variable A and the database computer IP = variable B? Thanks ____________ SHALOM, MA NISHMA AcHI!?

Sandman F3n!x0r 1194 posts	I felt like writing. If I ever make an MMORPG or something like it, the atmosphere will be similar to that piece of text. Also, keep up the good work. I very much like the inn/tavern/cafe/pub/bar idea of Rincewind, so you'd better implement it. ____________ BennuWiki Yes, my avatar has grey borders in IE (so get a decent browser) ROOFLEZ ROOFLEZ

Ariel Yust Bloodcoughted Yozik 291 posts	I think I have a fan anyway... I had an idea of making a mmorpg and wanted to test things for it... anyhow I think AXR you should first make a good working wip including movments battles trades and etc... from the mistakes of the past I ask you to work abit more on the game to a level that you could see how everything works and that you know how to finish that game... and when that happends and I hope it will... making gfx for you wont be a problem I hope. so keep working on the game...I my self prefer making the game a shooting platform with guns and survivel... coz theres no such game on the net. oh and btw... dont ever let people upload anything to your project! all you'll get is hacks spam and flames! rather let people choose from a giving gfx options...and pay for better and cooler options. like all the companys do. ____________ Get bitten by a vampire or at least at my own character muhahahaha! http://s7.bitefight.org/c.php?uid=159944

AXR Ear-Infecting Monkey 36 posts	agreed. Id love to give users the option to upload their own char anims. BUT, "spam and flames" shan't clutter the game. I do need a few questions answered: 1) Shall there be a plot or free roaming-ness? 2) Which towns will there be (Fenix,Java,Basic etc.)? 3) Modern, Ancient, or Mixed technologies? 4) Classes? 5) Suggestions for the Game's name? PS. I don't think that this will be an "upload" since it is gonna be a java applet (yea I'm changing it to an applet as Dennis advised) which will run on my web service. So either I upload a text file with the URL, or we find another option BACK TO WORK!!! weeeeeee ____________ SHALOM, MA NISHMA AcHI!?

User created content is the future I'm afraid. Not all players make spam and shit. Unfortunately the ones who make actually good stuff get called losers... Axr; 1)freeroaming ness ftw. Or a combination of the both. You could try and further storylines through quests. But it would be great to log in and just wander around for a few hours and do the odd dungeon for the glory of it. 2)Div should be the (a?) starting area. The game world called be called 'The Boolean Soup'. Suggests a mixed up world of variety 3)Steampunk? 4)Anything involving Necromancers. Could bring dead code to life? Hackers maybe if you're going for a programmy theme. 5)Big Wide World of Weird ____________ This is my Blog. There are many like it, but this one is mine!

yonni None 420 posts	2) Free-roaming with quests, dungeons and other randomly-generated fun. 3) I'd suggest ancient. The more basic technology will make it easier to understand what can/can't be done. Also, I love the image of the Souperguy holding a sword and shield. 4) You have to involve the undead somewhere. Idea: Organise the classes into different towns (the undead in DIV-town, ancient mages in text-based... etc) and then set the various races to war with another as you see fit. (feel free to flame this idea down as you see fit) ____________

Thanks I don't know exactly what you mean but that but since an applet is a web service you don't need the computer IP. Or you can change it when you are testing on 127.0.0.1. I don't think your online applet can interact with your offline database. In case I misunderstood you, check this http://www.artima.com/legacy/a … ssages/154.html It was just a suggestion though. Also, don't forget a boredome area. [Edited on August 3, 2007 by Dennis] ____________ Kwakkel
