if by draw you mean view distance its a 2d game, at the moment i am still coming up with unuiqe features, but one feature we do have is the vast amount of characters you can become, at this time they offer no bonuses but they will in the future, you begin as either a fighter, archer or mage, but this only affects your begining stats and apearance, then when u get off the begining zone you will see a monkey he will be able to change you into a monkey, theres also lizardman, wereman (theres lycans but there a class not just a looks charicter and completly different) theres mud golems, and more coming, whatever you change to you are permanatly that until you change again, i am also trying to set up a PVP maze race system, where a number of players enter a map at random points, your run around aimlessly trying to find the exit and the first to get to the exit gains a reward, im not 100% sure if these systems are on any other game yet, but those are what i have so far, im mainly focusing on getting the base of the game in before i work on unuiqe features and things to draw people into the game, because if i had unuiqe features and nothing to it wouldnt keep players very long xD

OHHHHHH ok, well so far nothing MAJOUR to offer except the aforementioned features and the players that are on it are freindly, then obviously the basic morpg features, enimes, fighting, getting gold, getting a house, guild house, exploring finding secret areas and special items hidden on way out of the way maps

Eeeh - Only a 18MB download - Guess I'll try it out Shrugs
1.) The folder in the RAR file is called "The Quest" - Rename it to the FULL name of your game.
2.) Mass quantities of .BMP's - Use Paint.NET's OptiPNG plugin, and set the quality to 90%.
3.) Still extracting, and still more BMP's - Use tile-maps o_O
4.) Move the DLL's out of the main folder into a sub folder, and change your reference directory.
5.) There's a folder in your "gfx" folder called "New folder" - Rename it.
6.) When creating an account, set the Password box to Stars, and add a "Retype Password" box.
7.) Server's Down - Guess my review stops there :p
"you require hamachi to play this game, download the client from the client from teh link below, and then google hamachi to get that, the hamachi network for TQOK is called TQOK and the password is TQOK,"

yes you require hamachi, but in the next version a hamachi install file will be included, the only reason i need hamachi is because in ireland it is hard to get an internet that supports port forwarding and i dont have the money to buy a server host, now about your reviews
XW Beta 1.0.3 is the game engine i am using
Comment has been collapsed.
it woukdnt require a a huge engine thats just a low guess of what possible, and no i cant afford an internet, my parents pay for it, im hoping to get enough money to get my own internet to host the game on, also im not 100% sure a VPS is but i need to be able to control the engine directly so if affects that feature then thats a no

1.) Ok :p
2.) Paint.NET and it's OptiPNG plugin can shrink the images, so they're significantly smaller to download (And subsequently faster to load in your game)
3.) Tilemap Example - A way to have multiple tiles in a single image.
4.) The directory you reference your DLL's. You can change your reference directory in any semi-decent programming language :p
5.) Delete your temp folders before uploading ;) Blizzard made the same mistake - Don't worry :p
6.) Aaah, ok - Fine then :p
7.) I couldn't connect WITH Hamachi either - I'll try again now though :)

will it skrink the file size or the image itself? and my 2d morpg is in tile mapping O.o where you put down a tile glike grass and it has several layers and all, forgot to delete temp folder again XD doing it next update, it should work now with hamachi, server is currently online so is hamachi, and if billxard made that mistake then im not too worried XD, also as far as i know the DLL directory is harcoded and uneditable. let me know if you have problems connecting, il be in steam group and on this

IMPORTANT: i am heading to sleep now for the night, and i think i just set up port fowarding, so i am turining off hamachi for the night, and i would apriciate it if someone attempted to log on and let me know if you connect ( you will most likely need to open up the client and click ip config then change the ip to the following, as the other ip is the hamachi ip, the ip that should work is: 31.200.147.177 )
so night and let me know what happens

Well i'll give it a look, if i like it i'll show it to some friends.
My big big big big big big big big big question is: how are you handling connections? are you using your home connection? that could be a bit trouble (though i'm sure you'll have it covered if you're planning to go big later on), also, when you say one 3rd is free, i pray this doesnt include unique armor and/or weapon sets, if you can explain that it would be great.
Comment has been collapsed.
read comment below, also im using home connection for now, but if it starts getting enough players and taking in enough money it will get its own internet connection, however i have tested it and it should be able to hold 20-50 people online at once as long as the people have a moderate internet connection themselves

the one 3rd is the amount of land you can explore, you could still wear armour from beyond that one 3rd but you would need to get a player who can go into the other areas to buy it for you, but the main things thats blocked is the land and the mobs on that land, because eventually it will get to the stage where in the first 3rd of the game you could one hit everything and take no damage and you would either have to start again or pay to continue, also there is one set that is actually avilible inside the free one 3rd of the game, and there are no locks on any sets beyond that except requirements to wear them

its not a facebook game, and you dont need to go near facebook to play it, the facebook group is just for people to read up about the lastest news, you dont need to like anything and there is no way to play it on facebook. you download the client and theres a link to that on the steam group, i just posted facebook.com incase people want to see some pictures of the game, or read abit more about the game, and soon its getting its own website, the main reason facebook page was made in the first place was a starting point to get the word out about it :P

I love this game, played over 25 hours already AND bought it! A great thing is that 1/3 of the gamei s free! The art style is amazing, and works well. The storyline is a bit unclear and unfinished, but will be improved. The people there are nice and will help you out ;) It's constantly being updated with new features. Special events aswell. I love this game.

ye the storyline has shifted ALOT, at one point krentark was going to be islands everywhere XD, but its being finalized and after dekoria is finished i am doing a complete overhaul of the story line quest chats, it is a bit all over the place right now :P

Your "Create Character" UI needs some work ;p
Piccie
Tried to run - Asked me to run as Administrator to register some DLL's - Ran as Administrator, and crashed.
Crash Piccie <--- Seems your sound code is buggy (FMod is a sound library) ;D

So it doesn't use internet but lan to connect to a server?
That's what hamachi (virtual lan creation) is for I guess.
That's bit of an inconvenience generally speaking.
You should try to remake that system at some point if you want to make proper game.
Just sayin'!
Comment has been collapsed.
the only reason i have to use hamachi is because i cant setup port forwarding and static ip with this internet, its the internet not the server, and currently all money raised is going towards the game, more money i get, the sooner i lose the need for hamachi
