[Loonywolf]

Hi all im kinda a newbie at the Irrlicht Engine so i have a crazy amount of questions boiling in my Brain (What brain) (Skrew you i have a brain )(No you dont ) anyway now that my alter egos being Stopped

I have a dream to make a MMorpg In 3d in the Way of Ultima Online but with a better Graf interface and better well everything.
Anyone ever try to make a Shard in Uo its a nightmare on its own getting the 100 type of file formats and making everything in a program that can only be Irggg didnt anyone ever fin a program to make Mul files and most of the other files format in Uo (See your a moron )(Am not)

well anyway if i write all the network stuff and make the program needed to make it all happen will it be compatibill with the Irrlicht Engine engine im not talking State of the art computing power and a monster Comp to run the client
Just a Uo type of game With most of Uo crafting skill and fun dinamics hunting Killing Stealing Coff coff (HAte thiefs )

anyway all i whant to know can it be made ?
If its no i will not wast my time and make a cool Frag fest game instead (Mybe a better version of Tribes vengeance with mores space to Move around better ways to build things and more on defence aspect (way to ezy to steal a flag and run around like a chicken with a off head ) (You would know dummy)

Well first of I will give you the answer to your question. Yes, you can make a MMORPG with Irrlicht. Its is a really good 3D engine.

Ok now to turn of my nice face and really tell you whats up, so if your feels get hurt reading this post I do not intend for them to.

I just want to tell you making an MMORPG I know my team is creating one. Aside from all the knowledge in C++ you must know you also have to work many really advanced features into a game just to get it working. However thats not the problem I have with your post. The fact of the matter is you mention UO & to many other games in your post.

You should not want to make a game better then another game just because you have beef with one little aspect of it. The goal of game developing is to evolve the industry not make copy cat games. Its ok if you wish to make a game like another game but do not make the whole game based off of everything in UO.

Well I could go on but my point was made....

sorry for my bluntness SkaterX29527 it takes a big man to say sorry when his wrong, Im sorry

First advice: beware. Making an MMPORG is not easy; trying to compete a popular MMPORG is even less. You have to understand that today, the MMPORG is THE most complicated type of game possible to make. It not only needs very good programmers, but a very dedicated artist team and solid background - such as high-bandwith servers which are able to handle a lot of clients at once (and I'm not mentioning the fact you need the servers to balance their load, the increased issues of security, yaddayadda).

anyway all i whant to know can it be made ?

Well, nothing is impossible. However, you do need other programmer(s) on this or else you'll get drowned into it, and also need artists who will make the art assets...

If its no i will not wast my time and make a cool Frag fest game instead (Mybe a better version of Tribes vengeance with mores space to Move around better ways to build things and more on defence aspect (way to ezy to steal a flag and run around like a chicken with a off head ) (You would know dummy)

Hum, my advice is to not try to make better version of games. Be original. First that will stop possible cease&desist letters if you land too close to the original game; secondarily, it usually needs a few games to get the neccesary experience, and to get some reference work that you can make artists join with (I won't say again how important art is, and how hard it is to get...).

That said, good luck. ^_^

I strongly feel you do. That said, you can't know how complicated writing a game can be until you do start... then you will see the real issues.

mybe i must fist try to make rooms make thing walk around it Play with lights put in 1 monster beat monster Ext Ext

First you should try to make a game actually letting you walk around without any quirks. It sounds pretty nothing, but you'll see there are already some issues there to mess around with - again, someone who didn't try making games before can not really imagine what issues can pop up.

Yeah, that's fairly common a mistake among newcomers. I started making games on a 386SX PC with QBasic and Turbo Pascal 7.00... and trying to make them ever since (that's cca 7-8 years now). Someone who didn't "got his hands dirty" with games can't really know all the problems that arise when you are doing a game - I don't think that's anything serious though. It's just naivity, imho.

Never mind! Remember, just today, anvils cost 30% less! Special deal!

and thanks all this is realy a nice Forum Not getting flamed for making silly statments (happens lots )

Well, there was another topic where I defended someone who started very ambitiously. While I usually smile at the "let's make an MMPORG" or "let's make a cool commercial game" topics, I don't like flaming the authors - unless they start throwing stupid things with ignoring what everyone (including me) says. Glad you're not that kind. If you need help getting started with game making, just ask btw, I will try to lurk here a bit more actively again.
