Maloria goes Hosted!

[MysticalDragon]

Well I tried Maloria on my other PC (that has windows XP), I got the same results.
So I tried Maloria on my PC with Windows 7.

So I'm thinking it has something to do with windows xp? Anyone else having this same problem with XP?
Ziro is thinking it has something to do with Gonstructs transparency tiles and Windows XP?
Hopefully in V6 this issue will be fixed.

I use it on XP and it works just fine.

The framerate lag seems to have reduced significantly now that the weather rain effect stopped (I disabled it in f3 earlier but it didn't stop eating me alive until it oficially stopped raining)

Being able to tell which town is which on the map is difficult, maybe when you mouse over the icon will "magnify" and the text could be larger?

The map system is very basic right now, I have a few features I'd like to add to it and quite many changes I want to do.

There are two issues as far as I've been able to tell:

* Tilelayers lag A LOT in v5. It's supposedly fixed in v6, but until then, there's nothing that can be done about it.
* Two GUI codes are causing weird lag - Party menu (when opened) and the general HP/MP interface.

I plan on looking more into it as soon as I get some spare time.

How do you CLOSE the party window? I opened it somehow and it has no close button and I couldn't figure out the key to close it.

The main party frame is currently always shown. There is an arrow button on it to toggle displaying the members in the party or not.

Can hosted servers be Classic enabled?

I actually had some fun on Maloria. I got all the way up to level 7 and killed the big spider and I figured that was the last quest.

I feel the hit detection between monsters is kinda odd which shouldnt be that hard to fix. All in all keep up the good work!

Good work guys.

Looks nice, though there were some script problems. Reconnecting three times fixed it for me.

[Shards-Of-Fate]

Lol. I like how in both of those screenshots Soala and I are both goofing off on Maloria XD

They need to get Stefans approval to be Classic enabled.

Has that ever happened, and how would one go about getting that?

Stuck at the class/nation selection screen. Selecting a nation would do nothing for the first two times. On the third reconnect it was fixed. The interface elements also displayed wrong the first time (because the profiles weren't downloaded).
