Yeah I know what you mean a friend mine did the same thing. I will finish start to end even if not the best thing. I enjoy this I will say been running private game servers for over 6 years.. I have exp time do somthing on my own instead of running emus and such.

This will pass and it will be slow. But this engine were going use will speed us up by 900% has the lvling system fighting system it's already in here... I will get pro version change many things in source so does not look like everyone elses game.. But for last 5 years I can't find a good game to play and it can't be because they suck.. It's cuz I'm not a player I'm a builder and a runner.. I enjoy it more then playing games.. I just got RYL little over a week I played like maybe 10 hours or so.. as you notice says over 40+ thats cuz left the private store running in the game sell items..

But this what it shows I'm already tired of it.. I just can't stand playing games.. I have to run them..

I enjoy the custmer support and such.

I have the worst english why I'm looking for a good writer.

But I know what your saying many give up. and many have a good defese saying there not going to. But I swear on my own kids grave it will get done. Cuz it's promis to me and to me friends and to my college.

rikku2005

fixed a registerbug said wrong code... Try to register again should work..

Also I already have a few servers setup even. tomorrow my 2x UPS battery backups will be in.. And today going buy nice shelving unit hold the servers and we have a fan on 24/7 keep air circulating and also dehumidifier all this in a small basement. hehe my own small datacenter also 2 isps 3 routers a switch 1 24 port hub and like a 8 pc network 4 servers 2 main pcs a laptop and my mothers pc

Kaos_nyrb

You bought servers before you've even started the game? Thats a bit cocky ain't it?

Not were hear for a learning experience and to have fun but at the same time make a real good MMORPG!

Rikimaru_X

It's best to start small and go big u know. Kinda cocky to make a MMORPG when u don't go as low as to making a Simple RPG or even Astroids.

paradyme

Wow how long has it been since we seen one of these? 2 weeks? The I'm so sick of the current MMORPG's run by big bad cororations so i'm gonna program the end all of MMORPG's posts.

Lets put this into perspective shall we: If you can't program a 20 page Pac-Man program you will not be able to program a 10, 000 page mmorpg. The sheer amount of coding in these games is astronomical, Even the most basic infastructures take up massive amounts of coding. Try typing out the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy word for word 15 times and you will have some idea of how much code ur gonna have to wade through. If it takes you more then a month to type one book you dont even have the willpower to take on a project like this. We are long past the days of programing an MMORPG in ur basement or garage during summer break(no there's a throw back) and it ever seeing the light of day. We've seen undergroud projects that are 80% finished that have been scraped because they should have come out 5 years ago and have fallen so far behind the times.

Electronic Gaming is no different then any other form of media out there in that 4 or 5 big corporations are going to swallow everything up and conform everything into a nice neat package and squash everything new that comes out so they can have total domination over the industry. Virvendi, Sony, EA? you can't take on giants like that, what ever you do they will do better a month later and just bury you under marketing and hype.

The future of gaming is very very bleak it will soon be that grey mushy stinky paste that the music and movie industy is today.

Woot Woot now thats what I call a Hi-Jack.

rikku2005

if your finished bashing hehe..

The engine were using has many years of work into it... It basicly has everything to make a mmorpg... It's so user friendly they made it so a dog could use it.. Though im getting pro version of it when it comes out it basicly is already a simple MMORPG made even comes with mounts models land items invatory pre made scirpts.. and more.. also ever been to like blitz3d forums 100000's of shared code snips and such.. This is actualy a birth of somthing new.. and yes were back to coding in the basement thanks to these programers.. who coded this engine for many years. It even has an auto updater and server side done in blitzplus and client in blitz3d...

It's really good I seen samples of it and I will bring you a mmorpg!

I swear on my kids life! and this will not be a 3 month thing this will be years work ontop of the years of work on the engine..

molecule

Dude, don't swear on your kid's life. That ain't right...

fulmanfu

maybe he dont like his kids?

anyway isntead of bashing for the simple fact we like bashing people, i wish you best of luck and i hope you do a nice job.

This is how buissneses grow, they start small.
If you think they will fail thats great, they will also learn something therefore not making that mistake again in the future. Give this some room, please.

Stukov

Yea, I don't like the bashing. I'll be honest, I don't expect them to finish. But like nathan said, whether they finish or not, they will learn from their mistakes. They will learn not to jump into something so big, or whatever. And if they do finish, obiously they're going to get plenty of experience from that.

People seem to forget that a lot of big name companies out there started as nothing more than a couple guys in a garage (Cough Westwood)

Wish you luck. And remember, if you don't succeed, don't give up. Take a look at what went wrong, and start something better suited for you.

Arsenal202

yeah this is a bit off topic, but i was wandering what programs u use to make the 3d models?

by the way im sort of new at this but i think you should go from a small online rpg, not straight to a mmorpg or mmog. i just started learning c++ (w00t! bloodshed C++) but anyway... the programs, please?

http://www.mmo.cn/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2 As you can see I'm really interested in creating a MMORPG. I'm here for fun but I'm also serious about making a MMORPG and making sure the project is a success and finishes 110% ( and past ) So basically if you guys like to post some detailed storylines or ideas or even like to help out (read below) that would be great. You can post them here or you can go to our forums and start posting your ideas and other things. Were going to be using the new game engine called RC, once the gold version is out. Pro version of course includes the source code so we can change or add basically anything.. Basically this engine is a pre made MMORPG with levels and some starter mobs, mounts, pvp, land, weapons, scripts, server/client sides, and tons more.. It even has an auto updater and encrypted client side files and much much more.. Basically this program is the next generation for making MMORPG's. It also even has a terrain maker and tons of tools for making quests and the land and such. I have had many years of running MMORPG's and also scripting MMORPG's I think this is a great place for anyone to learn and even come out and help even if you only help with one model. You would have your name in the credits good for a resume and we would have been helped out even if it's one model. Just think everyone on this forum donated a model we would have well a lot :)This is a free game and it may have some type of p2p features or may have some type of donation system later on once we go into late beta or gold to help pay for servers and such. All tools that your require will need to be paid with your own pocket. I have a lot to deal with in the first place with software and the servers... This a free project basically we help out your not forced to do anything that you don't want to do... http://www.mmo.cn/forums Lets make a real MMORPG where everyone likes! Who we currently need:
Storyline Writing
Texture Designers ( for models )
Graphic Designers ( for site and GUI in game )
3D Modelers (Beginner - Advance)
Sounds / Music / DJS Makers!
Webmasters (php/mysql) Will need in the future :
Quest Makers
php/mysql Programmers
BlitzPlus Programmers
Blitz3D Programmers
Network Administrators ( also includes security/protection server side Intrested post here: http://www.mmo.cn/forums/viewforum.php?f=6and a picture of our server will be using hehe. I spent a lot on this but it was and will be worth it

Why did you guys decide to do a fantasy game? With a name like Ashbrook Prime it sounds more SciFi
