Irrlicht Engine

Work has started on a web site for the game. This is being headed by Yaserj since I do not have the time to make a web site while I am making the game. As a quick update there is a npc in the game that moves around and is visible . The inventory is nearly complete, all that is left is changing character info when equipping items and attaching items to player models (need a player model first). Equipping will probably be finished up tonight hopefully which means tomorrow I can do attacking followed by death, item drops, exp, leveling and then I would consider the game quite playable.

Over the next week I plan on rebuilding the server, I will hopefully just start with a new ubuntu drive built for a server since I did not know much when I made this one and I have games and other things wasting space. After rebuilding the server will be online 24/7 except for patching and updating still. I will have to make admin functions soon I guess so I don't just kick people off while they are playing.

Well, I did some more work on the map editor and improved it a bit i think. Here is a screen shot of it and a map I made with it in a few minutes. Still some bugs to work out like selecting the vertex that is closest to the camera and the pointer not just the pointer since it might choose the vertex behind the one you are pointing to.

dude you really need my shader and the atmospehere scene node...

trust me, some screenies are available in the graphics section on the rofhonline.com forum

Woh there, who made you the almighty graphics god?

I think the screenshots look great.

hahahahaha, I do really want his shader though

need to either get a texture that is more detailed and universal, can look like grass mountain or anything if you change its color. This one is too small and looks quite bad. I am also debating adding multiple texture capabilities to the editor but that will take a lot of effort I believe... and I would need the textures.

I'd say go for the multiple textures, it will improve the overall graphics a lot. I can direct you to some high quality terrain textures if you need.

would be nice if you don't mind would be a fun thing to program not gonna lie haha.

These are some good ones that I found really quickly.
http://www.cgtextures.com is a very good site for realistic textures.
http://www.turbosquid.com good for 3d models and textures

You may also want to try download a terrain editor and use their textures, most are of very high quality.

awesome thanks I will definitely add texture splatting to the editor. That combined with the coloring should make a pretty awesome looking terrain. Combining it with realtime shadows from dev will be quite enjoyable . I look forward to updating you guys with this, might be worthy enough to post in the screen shots thread here haha.

It's good to see people sticking with their projects, we get a lot of people that just post their ideas and give up the next week. Glad you continued yours, best of luck

Well Lonesome Ducky dont be picky, cause I am currently ONE OF (not only one) of graphics gods in their dev team...

and that is what I made for them



looks quite realistic???

Looks very dark and blurry

well dark beause there is no sky

blurred because of depth of field (its only blurred in distance)

the terrain self shadows dynamically according to the position of the sun and also turns orange during sunrise/sunset

yay! I will implement the shader tomorrow and start working on the texture splatting aswell. Hopefully I will be able to finish it all by the end of the week if all goes well.
