New idea in need of help.

DaBoss · #1 02-09-2009, 09:53 AM

Hello everyone, I have decided to take action and start thinking of my own server idea. My idea of the playerworld is you will start off on an island and have to build a raft to get to the main island to be able to start gameplay, it's basically like a tutorial you also have the other option by battling through various of quests and such just to get there. We need staff in every position as I only have one true staff member and will be able to get many more, and i'm looking for more help and commens. Well here is the breakdown of the server, plus if you want to help we will be on dev daboss pm Ways or "DaBoss".

-start of server-
You start off stranded on a island. trash and debree arises at shore around you. You make way though a jungle to a near-by camp site. Here you learn about 8 major skills Crafting, fleching, farming, fishing , mining, smithing, agility, and holy. Out of these skills , you can only choose 4.Here you learn you must make a raft to escape the horrid island. Every player has the ability to make a raft and to do the lowest form of each skill.

-Skills-
Crafting-You have the ability to create your own boat when you get to a higher level, instead of having to buy one and paying the money you worked for. Crafting you have the skills to make your own tools of survival.

Fleching-Consist mostly on required items, fleching is used to make arrows, poles for staffs and can repair bows. With fleching u will be able to take feathers, arrow heads, and sticks to make arrows for ammo.

Farming- You have the ability to make money by raising animals, and doing such tasks as keeping a well working farm. You do such tasks as getting points for the most animals you take, the good quality of meet you make which you will sell to make money or trade for other goods.

Fishing- You will start off with the basic fishing pole and when you get a lot of fishes of great weight, you will get higher experience which lets you get more tools such as a net, higher experienced fishing pole and such. You can also use a fishing boat, plus only fishers can fish outside the made area since they get a fishing permit.

Mining-You will start off with a basic mining skill, and axe, and you will work your experience up by the amount of minerals you get and depending on the minerals they are. When you get more experience you will be able to use tnt, and a higher experienced mining axe.

Smithing-smithing uses ores from mining to smelt down to make a variety of items such as armor, arrow heads, spear heads, the better your smithing skill, the higher level items you will be able to make. Your level in this class also affects what kind of ores you are able to smelt.

Agility-this skill mainly affects your players walking speed. It does affect your hp a slight bit. Agility will determine how fast you can shoot arrows, and how fast you can use your weapons and items.

Royal-This is a rather easy skill to use. Royal is a set of abilities that help you with just about every task. These abilities are increased by points you get each level. this consist of "Holy Guard"(def+ a percent), "Great Luck"(Luck+ a percent) luck can help you with any other skill.

-Gameplay-

You will be doing missions and skills depending on skill you have chosen. You’re tasks will be changed as the weather changes, as it can be harder for you to find fishes in the cold or not depending on the type of fish. Everything varies on what you chose, you choose your future on the server, you will be trying to live on your own by the tasks you pick.

-GUI LOOK-

The Gui will contain a link to show your current experience, how much you need to your next level up, and what tools you can get with that experience. The Gui will show your hp and mana level. The gui will also tell you what skill and class you are.

-Inventory-
The inventory will hold your weapons and there will be a section for tradable weapons which can be visible for others to see, and they can place offers for you to look so that you can sell and which is logged so no one can get scammed. The inventory will show you your skill level aswell.

thesmoothcriminal · #3 02-10-2009, 05:50 AM

Good for you.

The story line isn't half bad. Good luck.

Arch_Angel · #6 02-10-2009, 05:54 AM

Looks good so far, keep going with your own idea Jigga, and don't rip anything that's not yours!
You're doing good.

DaBoss · #7 02-10-2009, 05:59 AM

Thanks bro.

Well to go back on topic somewhat, we need help in development areas, and if you are intrested it says how to contact us.

thesmoothcriminal · #8 02-10-2009, 06:27 AM

do the screenshot to get interest. Text doesnt do much for peoples around these parts

DaBoss · #9 02-10-2009, 06:28 AM

Well not to be rude or anything, but if we had anything to show I would of displayed, at the moment I have nothing to show but the currently worked on tiles.

DaBoss · #10 02-10-2009, 05:06 PM

Thanks a lot

Rufus · #11 02-10-2009, 07:44 PM

The tiles included in that tileset are from various different artists and I doubt you've got permission to use them. The content includes tiles from Tom, Codein and Dusty, with not all of them being from the "free tiles" thread.

We really need to start throwing the banhammer at people that cannot learn to make things for themselves and claim stolen material as their own. I think it would help people like Jigga learn.

I was just thinking this myself. If this is Jigga then he needs to be banned from making servers full stop, he does this a lot.

CharlieM · #14 02-10-2009, 07:59 PM

Doesn't dusty have a full free to use tileset? Why not just use that Jigga

DaBoss · #15 02-10-2009, 11:14 PM

I used parts of it.. Nothing is stollen, I didn''t even do it.. someone I know is, and they know who it's from they don't steal.

I asked the artists individually. Dusty's stuff is alright as he posted it on the forum, but the rest of the stuff such as the furniture and flooring is not. They're from Tom's server Arca and he has never told anyone they could just use the work he's made, except for something I asked to use a few months back. I don't know why you'd place so many different styles of art on one tileset anyway.

I don't really mind people using my stuff, its nice actually cause i still dont have that much confidence in my work, so when people use it its cool. But its really annoying when someone uses it and tells you they made it.

Also i did give permission to Rufus not too long ago to use those tiles, so they're basically his now.

Sorry

He's never had any credibility to begin with.

DaBoss · #20 02-11-2009, 02:29 AM

o.o, He never said he made it

DaBoss · #21 02-12-2009, 01:06 AM

No one was speaking to you.

It is. And he should be banned for ban evasion, what, 10 times?

DaBoss · #23 02-14-2009, 01:09 AM

I'm not stealing content.

DaBoss · #24 02-14-2009, 03:41 AM

Hello everyone, I'm need the desperate need of level designers, and if you have gold and want to tryout please post.

Quit double posting, kthxbai.
If people don't want to help, you don't need to double post. If you're updating something, wait at least something like a month.

DaBoss · #26 02-14-2009, 07:44 AM

That is not relavient, so please be quiet.

It is in my eyes. I hate seeing people double post. There's a reason for the edit button. Use it.

And it definitely is relevant because it's a FORUM RULE to not double post.

Users are encouraged to combine their posts into one.

It was not a reply to another post, it was simply to bump your thread.

DaBoss · #28 02-14-2009, 07:55 AM

This is a a hiring thread,unless intrested in working please shut up, because you're acting your like a teacher.

DaBoss · #32 02-18-2009, 05:55 AM

Everyone we are in the need of level designers, scripters and Graphpic designers. If you are intrested please logon Lost.

thesmoothcriminal · #33 02-18-2009, 08:17 AM

Did you have to name it lost?

Ravenblade1979 · #34 02-18-2009, 05:44 PM

Wow figures that another hiring thread turns to flamewars.

Correct, the forums wouldn't be the same without it.

DaBoss · #37 02-19-2009, 04:57 AM

Yes or else it would be pointless to ask someone to logon "lost"

MysticX2X · #38 02-19-2009, 05:19 AM

ROFL Jigga, how many accounts do you buy? Graalonline loves your business with them.

DaBoss · #39 02-19-2009, 06:25 AM

Stay on topic.

thesmoothcriminal · #40 02-19-2009, 08:33 AM

isnt this based on lost? why not dragon ball z or naruto
