RPG Un-Named ORPG

[D.V.D]

I haven't been working on the project for some time cause my laptop's fan is screwed up and we need to fix it. Also, Im very busy packing for mountian climbing for 2 weeks starting from sunday so until then, I won't be active. After I will finish the taure area at least before summer ends.

okay, ill be back in korea at the 8th of august, however i have a friend from germany visiting me, so i wont work a lot on the project, but if you have any more abilities, or other systems etc to be done, post them, then ill see what i can get done.

Oh and just remembered, ill go on working on the one spell that i was working on before i left (forgot the name xD).

@Embrace

[Embrace_It]

I'm back now and I'll have all the time in the world until I start again somewhere between 1.-4. of september. So feel free to throw some spells in my direction

@ wellwish3r: I have made no edits to your system....yet! MUAHAHA... =P

 

[D.V.D]

Im back from my vacation but my laptop is still being fixed. I only worry about one thing. THe terrain doesn't have a backup so if it gets deleted which it shouldn't, the project will fall very far behind. Embrace i'll soon get some ideas for spells.

 

[Embrace_It]

Ouch! Well, let's just hope that would happen :S
Looking forward to makin' some spells!

Ok, I'll get back to coding then I'm in Sweden atm without an internet connection but will be home tomorrow afternoon.

Since there are 5 spells I assume they have to be in a spellbook? Also, what about the Tremor ability I made that you requested? I don't see that anywhere!

I'll get started on the Shockwave ability. When you say "Environment functions" do you mean the Terrain Deformation Functions by any chance?

 

[D.V.D]

Yes terrain deformation. And I forgot about the tremor. Gonna add it soon.

 

[Embrace_It]

Berserk is almost done. Just needs some polish. Made a SetStaminaMelee function for the melee system. Gonna post it soon

 

[D.V.D]

Ok, 3 more days till I get my laptop.

 

[D.V.D]

Im getting my laptop tomorow and acording to the company fixing my laptop, they will only change the fan so no data should be lost. Send me the spells EMbrace if their done.

 

[Embrace_It]

Berserk is done. I've chosen some ingame effects that can always be changed later.

I've added the following function to CS Main Melee:

function SetStaminaMelee takes unit u, real r returns nothing

It's all in the attached map.

Beginning work on Shockwave, when this gets approved.

 

[Em'rak]

I can't wait for this ORPG. The terrain in the city looks so awesome.

/wants these skills.

 

[D.V.D]

I can't wait till we finish this project. I wanna see what the public will think about the gameplay. THe spells all look good except for battle charge which we took out. Tremor is going to have to have some effect changes cause once the shockwaves fade, it looks like the effect just dissapears. I will change the effects and start terraining soon and you could start the next spells.

 

[Embrace_It]

Thanks, Em'rak! It's so nice to hear that once in a while ^^

 

[D.V.D]

Updated first post with finished systems and the tauren abilties as well as some rouge abilities.

With the mapsize increased to 8mb, Im going to change the desert creeps found to units like sandworms and so on. Im keeping the scorpions there cause they really fit the desert theme and maybe another race. I will update the forst post with the new creatures soon.

 

[D.V.D]

Embrace, what spell are you working on? I want to know if I could start working on one too.

EDIT: After a long time of not posting screenshots, here are 2 new screenshots I thought I might post:

Spoiler

 

[Embrace_It]

I'm working on Shockwave atm. It is done, but needs some polishing. Instead of starting on working on some new abilities, I thought I might refine all the warrior abilities in relation to spell despriction, eye-candy, mana cost and so forth.

Screens are awesome, I really like that terrain :thup:

 

[D.V.D]

Thanks for the feedback. Im planning on reterraining most of the orcish area to make it look better. I also wanna try to release a demo with the orcs area done and one dungeon just to see if people have problems with the combat system.

 

[Embrace_It]

Sounds like a solid plan. No use making a system if people dont like it

I will be very busy this week, but I hope to release the updated warrior spells at the end of it, if not before.
