Single-player Graal

[Midnight_Magician]

Has anyone ever thought of making a single-player campaign with Graal? Something that could be ran from the level editor.

My friend wants to do a project that takes the plotline of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and turn it into a single-player adventure using Graal.

Anywhos, he wants to do some things that would require a lot of complex GS that is way over my head. So if anyone would be interested in helping out with a project then please contact:

Doubt copying a series storyline is allowed.

I doubt in single player there is any way anyone could ever enforce such a thing.

I've always wanted to create a single player server, but with multiplayer options as its available, but i can never stick to one project.

But would be nice to see you guys do it

I was considering this with the Era tileset, just as a fun to-do. Of course, there's always the people that will read the code and tell everyone how to beat this, these and those.

Wasnt (is?) Shaded Legend semi-single player?

Originally people used to make worlds in the level editor and then distribute them in ziparchives. It would be awesome to see one.

The story focused more on the single player finishing quests in order to gain information to restore the world to normal. After all of that it's kinda community oriented.

I remember seeing one that was basically Zelda 64 for Graal. Forgot how big the game was, but it was fun to play with Graal.

Yes, it's been done, but not for awhile. Also, Graal used to support offline multiplayer. I used to have a lot of fun with that.

Too bad it didn't support Lan. I don't like the Arrow Keys and the Num Pad to play

ya i remember when i had a 1.28 gserver (which did not have ap, but it was the most stable freely distributed client, the 1.31 gserver crashed morein my experience.)

I think the reason that those little quests and even mini worlds were so much fun is that people were not out to impress anyone else, or to meet some high standard. They were just having as much fun making a game as they were playing the game that they created.

And that's what the next revolution of thought in graal should come back to.

Technically you could write a couple of scripts to make on online server "single player". Just don't have it draw other players and make as much of it clientsided as possible. I don't see the point though in having something like this, Graal isn't the most competitive MMORPG, but it is a bit nice, but if you were to make it single player, wouldn't you want something with a bit better graphics and that is a bit more expansive?

Talk about a major waste of money.

No.

Why is everyone always about the major graphics and stuff, simple is better.

i used graal to do a school project like 4 years ago.. i made a single player adventure of the odyssey... the part with the cyclops and all that.

it's actually alot of fun but in order to make a good offline graal experience you do need a lot of very interactable NPCs. luckily you don't have to worry about what's serverside and what's not! but at the same time you lose a lot of good features... no DB npcs = : (

EDIT: whoever mentioned LAN support might really be on to something... what better way for people learning to script then to have their own, nice little LAN graal server? it'd be hella nice for learning to script and work as a graal staff member and it could definately be oodles of fun too. stefan would most likely say "no" though.

i would play a single player server online whenever i get bored. it would need to have some good quests and monsters to keep me interested tho.
