Interesting tidbit :D
 

Welp, I am making great progress on my RP engine/system (aka JobClass System). My latest little release is the JobSwitch NPCw that controls the active jobclass. In the lower right corner is your mini-hud so to speak that displays each of the 4 attributes for that class and ABP level. I haven't implented ABP yet because of some difficulty. I would like it if some RP "buffs" could help out with that little part. Depending upon what class is active determines your HP and MP...as for your head, that is determined by the collective result of the Con attribute from all 3 JobClasses. So the higher, the better your character's head will be in terms of being ugly or nice :D

I may upload the NPCw to my PW and let some people BETA test it for me to make sure it works and things won't conflict. To use JobSwitch, you must hold 'D' and use Left or Right to select what class will be active. Even the status display in the bottom corner updates when you change too :D

I'm in such a good mood and feeling as of now (mostly because I am excited about my latest work). Beware if I begin to gloat about my achievements ;)

Ooh, about the head thing. Would it be that it would set that one head number, or would there be a group of heads to select from each...I don't know...pretty level?

Re: Re: Interesting tidbit :D
 

I'll probably allow you to select from a specific range based on your Constitution attribute points :)

heyyy, not bad at all

keep up the good work!

Sounds good. :)

Finally a damn server where if you pick a class you dont have to stay in it forever or if you want a change you dont need your account reset (*cough*Valkoria,Delteria,Enigma*cough*). Changable classeeeeesss

omfg liek 2 posts 2 go till 1337 guy get ready :O:O:O

Um, rofl...you have to pick 3 different JobClasses...but only 1 is allowed active at any time.

If you want to pick new classes, your account would have to be reset. Unless I decide to build a feature that once you master a class, you can pick a new one...but I probably won't.

Other PWs that have classes are doing it the easy way :D I figured I would make things a little more complex and unique since I had not seen it implemented else where.

And just like Val, RPing will be invite-only...and I do not tolerate most of the crap that interrupts many RP events on 2k1 ;)

my server is setup were you pick your race, class, weapon, zodiac sign, and then your diety :rolleyes:

no one steal my ideas or i'll stab you with my rusty spoon, k

Re: Interesting tidbit :D
 

that is going to 0wn

I had that only with starting skills instead of classes ;P
I never actually do anything much with the server though, it's just a bunch of ideas and nothing more.

Ummm... isn't stuff liek that in ******ok or Ultima Online?

If I ever make my PW you'll be able to change class and job or anything at any time =) That's how it is in greatest MMPOG (howeva it'z spelt), U l t i m a O n l i n e.

spiffy neato...

Keep working tho!

Re: Interesting tidbit :D
 

Looks good :) do you have different skins that match the hp bar?

Re: Re: Interesting tidbit :D
 

yep :)

Yes, and in quite a lot of other succesful MMORPGs.

I am not in the least bit surprised :)

Nice, I really like how the interface is set up.

Well, if I can get a little warping script right, I'll set up a level link that will warp players to the JobClass selection screen and then after you say 'done' you'll be warped to a level that gives you *JobSwitch and a FREE HP SkinChanger :)

It even exits so you can go through again :D

when you get everything fixed and running.. your not gonna reset our accounts are you!?

I'll have to so that everyone will get their JobClasses setup :)

Plus...a new screenshot of the new opener (aka onlinestartlocal).

And as of now, the new title screen and the JobClass selection screen are now available as public BETA. To get there, use the first door on the right in the starting level. It should say JobClass BETA above it :)

You should seriously do graphics for Graal, those are excellent. Way better than any other stuff I have seen

Um, I'm not going to lie, but that "cloud" image is really something I snagged from RPM2k...fog.png....I saw it and I figured I could put it to good use, so I did :)

But really, my graphical abilities are not very good...sprites are probably the best I can do but they are still not that great

I prefer systems like Asheron Call's... where you can assign points to stats... nifty thing about asheron's call is that exp can pretty much be devided among the different stats soo... lets say your a really high level character with low dodge... not a problem... your getting the exp of a high level character but you only need the amount for the level of that skill... which we allready mentioned was low. You'll have that skill mediocre in no time... well... its true to some extent...

Well, that is nice, but that would be more time than it's worth.

Also, if you can't see your jobclasses, then here is the sprite table for the jobclass icons.
