I have been talking to stefan a good few times when i see him online and its ok for anyone to creat a player world with 3d terrain in it if they make there own graphics.
Anyway , i was reading on other forums where Unixmad was taking about rent out "Player World hosting" slots , e.g 100 mb space with no npc server up to 500mb with a npc server ( If you have not readed this ,check out the "Graal Main Forum" and look at the posting "Player World hosting" )
But anyway i have also been talking to tyhm about this . This is what he had to say when i was asking him questions about all of this.
(me asking
)
I would like to inquiry in how much you are planning to charge for you Player world hosting. I would like to see a pice range , sense i will end buy one when they come available.
This option should only be open to Vip`s or Vip`s should be charged at a lower rate , becouse i dont really see the point of been a Vip.
I would also like to know what provilages would we be getting if why bought a player world hosting account ?
Would we be given scripts to interact with our web sites and our playworld servers ?
Would be be aloud to use graal2002 graphics?
Would there be ways for people to donate there money?
and do we get our pw logo printed on any Graalonline merchandise?
I am just asking you this becouse i am working on my playerworld project "MedievalGraal" and i hope to see it up as alist playerworld some day , i am make my own graphics so i can use the 3d graal terrain. The only thing i dont like about make graphics is drawing the buildings.
How did you make buildings for graal kingdoms ?
i hope hear for you some time soon , if like to visit my web site it is
www.medievalgraal.com
ok thanks

Price Range - if I get my way, it'll depend entirely on how many people choose to upgrade based on your world. If enough like your world, we'll actually pay YOU as if you were advertising our service. If nobody upgrades or you let everyone in for free, probably around $60 a month I'd guess - that's how much it costs US to rent a server. Hard to tell though, and that'd be if 0 people register based on your server.
VIPs - They don't get a discount; they do get access to more support tools. We're still debating if only VIPs can host: right now the consensus is yes, as we don't want people hosting worlds that can't even be bothered to sign up for scripting updates.
Priveleges - isn't it obvious? You get a PW all to yourself.
Tools - Pretty much anything we can cook up, everyone gets. Right now we don't have a lot of connection between our own website and Graal (because our webmaster decided the task was too trivial to bother with and it was lagging both servers), but I'm fairly sure something will be worked out.
G2K2 - not just the graphics. If things work out the way they seem to be headed, you can start out with a lite version of G2K2 to modify as you see fit.
Donations - The short version is, if you want to donate, buy an account from the PW you like. Every PW will have a website, so I suppose it would be technically possible to set up a Paypal Donation link; whether or not we'll be happy about it remains to be seen, it's kind of a big deal if our affiliates are making more money than our coder.
Logo - Well, you get your PW logo on Graal in a way. As for the TShirts and so forth...maybe. If this thing really takes off, we might license TShirts with your Graal PW's logo.
Buildings on Graal Kingdoms - we hired a graphics artist to do that stuff. It's essentially scanned in and colored as I understand it, and placed via gani. Works rather nicely.
