"The Olde Times"

Hey, Iam looking out for some crazy people to build a classic looking playerworld using predefined tiles in a timespan of 20-30 days, so that we can get it hosted before my playerworld runs out in 48 days.

Dependencys:

-You have to know how playerworlds looked before 2001
(Dino Valley, Graal1999, Auroria, Old N-Pulse.. and and and)
-Maybe someone with enough coding skills to enable some basic classic hack and slay quests with using the old baddies.

Iam totally serious with this, as a home for all oldbies around.

- Lux


To show you how it will look alike:

[Pimmeh]

Use an older tileset, might look better.
Anyways. I dont think this will work.

[Horrified]

2 Months?

Even for a hack 'n' slash server, doubt it'd make it in time.

edit: not to mention you still DO HAVE TO PAY for a server on hosted tab

[Switch]

No he means you still have to buy the subscription each year/6 months

[Knightmare1]

You wont have to worry about your server going hosted.

[DustyPorViva]

Just because it's classic doesn't mean it has to be trashy

[Darklux]

Ill publish first screenies soon.

Furthermore we decided to add a Nonogram minigame (like Picross DS) for our waiting visitors

Btw: Why can't I edit my first post? I want to update the graphics as we use good old 1.41 tiles now.

[Pimmeh]

That looks quite cool Keep it up!

[Darklux]

Todays update: Enjoy!

[Crow]

If you log on and get disconnected again, dont worry, just log back on, I got a reset script running.

[Nabru]

It's going to be an awesome playerworld, unfortunately my levels weren't up to standard for him . Good luck with development! I hope to see this server hit hosted within the deadline!

[Tom]

The tiles that go in doors you can walk over are brownish. Theres a darkgray one though, but you cant walk over that one

[Tom]

Crow loves rocks :o

[Laek2007]

Woha, this actully looks pretty good. I love it that even tho it's suppose to look really old, you've managed to get the houses to look creative.

I give my thumb up on this project

[Darklux]

Thanks. Yet even I cannot finish the whole overworld and all insides on my own, so applications are appreciated!

@Nabru: Try to build levels similar to my style, the load of screenshots should be a good help

[Spark910]

nice but please don't call it that!

"Rebirth", probably would be a whole lot cooler

[ViperZakuto]

oldbie haven hahaha

this is soo awsome. i can't wait to give it a test run. will check it out tomorrow.

[DustyPorViva]

Retroville, ooooooooooooooooooooh yeah

[Darklux]

We added another Roofcolor to be more flexible with Town Design.

This is the Condo House, people can buy or win a limited town of Suites in Quests.. the Penthouse is limited to Staffs

@ Nameideas:
Some of them were pretty good, but we won't decide that topic before going hosted. You are welcome to send in more names before that happens

- Lux

[WanDaMan]

Haha, awesome!

[Laek2007]

Wiiiiiickeeed sick!

[Crono]

That big house is pretty awesome. Shame the tileset for the walls without windows sucks.

I promise to you that we are working on that too.

Keeping 1.41 nice sides and removing the suck - thats the real background behind it.

We are in the need of a Tile Artist and more Lats to get it done in reasonable time, as we current are a 2 man army.

Help out - just apply via pm, showing some examples if you are not too well known is okay, otherwise just leave em out.

I will write a post about that lateron, too.

Be wary (sic) - Lux!!!!

[Darklux]

A friend is whilling to help us out with tiles, I think this new version is finally highly enjoyable.

You can see: we live and are evolving

Check it out.
