Mirage Source

Update for today :

-Quite large FPS boost thanks to an optimization by DFA
-Started a system that will store certain variables for the player instead of constantly re-calculating it, and will update when you equip/de-equip an item with mods or when you put in stat points (Damage, Armor/Defence, Attack Speed, Magic Find, Damage Reflect)
-Worked some more on the stat system
-Started work on a day/night system. Might scrap it though, depends.

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys

too bad no ones ever made use out of my damn GUI's T_T

i don't think you should settle into a GUI until you're done coding for a while anyhow

Yeah, that's probably what I'm gonna do when I'm nearer release, since for now I don't really need a GUI

Working on the Day/Night system at the mo Got to kink out one last bug and then I'll show a screenie Torches haven't been added yet, that'll be next

@Doomteam : APK is a really amazing GUI maker if I remember correctly, he used to make some for games, but I think he meant they never got released or something.

He put some up for sale awhile back. They were pretty nice. Nothing I'd use though..

This is going good. Keep up the amazing work

Read bottom of post - Edited

Night time in the wild, without a torch



Notice how the top left and bottom right is a bit iffy though o_O Still trying to figure that one out xD. But you get the drift

Edit : Hmm, donno if I'll be keeping this day/night system yet or not, I might just overlay the whole screen so that you can still see, I don't know yet =/ This light system is proving to be odd xD

Edit :
Alright well, I was having lots of problems with the day/night system, so for now I am just going to remove the system I currently had in place. I might re-add it in one day depending on if I figure out a different way to do it. So, for now I'm scrapping that system, and I might go for a traditional day/night system with lights and such where you can still see the whole screen, I don't know yet really =/

One would tend to think that the classes gave it away, at the very least.

xD

Updates :

- Finished player killer system. Players can become a PK at level 10 and can kill other players in certain areas. Not sure how looting will be controlled yet. PK System keeps track of player kills and deaths and you can view another player's stats by typing /pkstats playername.
- Arena Map Type, no experience/items lost, doesn't count towards deaths nor rescues
- Started re-making the NPC Drop System

More awesome upgrades. Keep them coming

Been busy, so I couldn't really work on Kolosos Got a nice feature done though :

Updates

-NPC drop system totally redone it, can now allow player to add a large amount of drops to the NPCs, allowing for many unique drops Woot
-Worked in Haggling stat, now works when trading with NPCs

_________________

Sorry I haven't been posting much, been working hard on the Spell System with animations and area of effect and such, hopefully I will be done soon

_________________

Alright, updates for today

Updates :

-Spell Animation System totally done
- Hardcoded Heal, Flame (Click + Cast on a single player/npc), Fire Ring (4 surrounding tiles), Bless (Player buff, buffs most stats, however, the actual buffs haven't been added, but that takes two secs )

More to come

Really good. I'm looking forward for this game. ^_^

Updates:

- Totally redid the way mods are handled, to make it much more effecient, and the mods now cover pretty much all stats

Now, I also started working on a forum No point in giving out URL yet though since I don't have a domain Maybe when I'm closer to a full client, which will hopefully be soon

On a side note - am looking for someone who could make me some spell animations for a few spells add me on msn or email me at jokeofweek [at] hotmail [dot] com. I have GTalk and XFire if you'd rather talk on there, I just don't really use 'em, but I will if necessary It's just for a few spells, and it'd be hugely appreciated. Credit would definitely be given. Only problem is I don't have any money so I wouldn't be able to pay
