Re: Recommendations for a new high-end PC?

I tried and tried, but I still can't understand the idea of case esthetics. It is just beyond me I guess. A case is used to hold the parts together, help with airflow and keep the cat out. It lives under the desk with the cables and the dust bunnies.

Case esthetics is all about the LAN parties ...

Re: something for your guys to poke at

You could probably IC it a bit by claiming that the reason why is because the GoWs is using a different language to write Ages and the Bahro connection is non-existent for a non-D'ni/Yahvo based language. This way, Bahro could link to Asylum, but would be limited to only certain link it spots ...

Re: Contingency plan

Source is a great engine, one of the best out there currently. But that is probably not our best option. Using it for free would mean that we would actually have to turn our game into a 'mod' for Half Life2. ie: people would need to have HL2 to play it. Which isn't great if we are aiming for a full ...

Re: Contingency plan

I see no reason why the players cannot be in control of the story. Certainly there are enough people with differing opinions about the Art that factional groups could emerge. All that would be needed is an overriding 'moderator' who would serve the purpose of making the differences seem bigger than ...

Re: Contingency plan

Sure, but, as far as I know, Multiverse is windows only (if nothing else, it doesn't support linux >.<), closed source proprietry rubbish, which, to me, defeats the purpose of creating our /own/ game.

There is a pre-built mmo engine, one based on planeshift, the Peragro Tempus engine
( peragro ...

Re: An Idea for a game

Reminds me mildly of a game called Morpheus where you were an arctic explorer who has stumbled upon a ship. As you walk around on the ship, just looking for a place to get warm, you soon find out that the ship is haunted. Each of the passengers on the ship has their own dream sequence that must be ...

Re: Contingency plan

Well, I have discovered that Blender is capable of the output format that Multiverse uses. Additionally, for programing purposes, people tend to use Java and Python. It might be possible that the first incarnation of this game could be available shortly after MOUL gets pulled from Gametap.

Re: Importing Ages

Her textures have to be referenced somewhere in the game files in order to know to equate Zombie Yeesha with Zombie Yeesha's skin.

Hmm... an undead army of Yeeshas and Bahro attack the cavern... sounds like a good theme to Season 2. Or, a reason to get the heck out of the cavern before becoming one ...

Re: A New Strategy for Cyan Worlds

I though I had read that, although Gametap has the rights to MOUL, Cyan Worlds still has the rights to Uru CC. Would that mean that Cyan is free to turn around and make an online game based on Uru CC?
