I understand why many people like this 'custom version', but it's not a good engine, yes it has many features and you can easily make a great game with it, but the whole point of an engine is to provide the basics for the game, like the networking and graphics stuff. And when you look at Eclipse Reborn as an engine its bad, it has way too much features that not every game will have and almost every feature is not optimized and has bugs. For the people who want to switch over to another engine but will like to keep there items, account, etc., I will make a convertor for it as soon as possible, when its finished you can find it here: [http://www.touchofde…converter-v100/](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/community/index.php?/topic/127490-eclipse-converter-v100/)

> Nice to see this still being worked on. I was gonna make one of these myself but eh. I'll just use this…maybe lol It's not a shame to use something which you actually was planning to make self, I mean, why should you reinvent the wheel?

> I am running EA right now, and i want to switch to EO. Sadly my VB knowledge is quiet limited right now. Is there any way to add this function to the existing Tool? It would be so great and i think that there are some people out there with the same problem. > > Greetings > > TermiGR I know TermiGR hasn't been online since 29 December, but I think other might have thesame problem, so here is version 1.0.1. [http://www.mediafire…19286xxb2539n8z](http://www.mediafire.com/?19286xxb2539n8z) Changelog: Added Eclipse Advanced to Engines. I'm not entirely sure if Alatar agrees that I keep up the development, but I also helped him with the House Editor which he liked, so I don't think its that much of a problem if I credit him. **I'm not as good in programming as Alatar, so make sure to have a backup of the things you want to convert!** **If you do come across any problem with converting post in this topic and then I'll try to fix it as soon as possible.**

Alright, since Alater isn't very active, I'll keep this in development, so are there any features you guys request and what engines do you want to get added?

> pixel based move ment (as it sounds) your moving pixel by pixel. > > for event system think of the rpgmaker one but integrate the quests with it so its workable for both or either or together. this makes it faster to find stuff. > > just gotta say if u do add it dont be a deathbeam. >| keep da move routes. even add player ones dis would allow cut scenes with out flash videos. > > also this might get ppl to switch to ur engine ( make a word doc with the info to put in one of the map converters) > > since most hate to remap. just saying. I already have a map convertor in the Resources section, but I'll see if I can get it to work to convert to Dream World, but its easy really. I also found a bug in 0.0.6, screenshot doesn't show resources. 

I don't know if you already have more time to work on DW, but I found out that the screenshot function isn't working, it only saves a black image.

He is still sometimes on the forums, I even saw him posting a few days ago. He's just too busy with his job and Crystalshire. And he quit out of EO because it was 'finished' in his oppinion I believe, or he got sick of people stealing his work without crediting.

It's pretty good for RMVX. I'm don't know how good you are with RMXP, because I'm still looking for a mapper, so if you decide to quit your project you can always join mine. 

> The website already has a system where you HAVE to like my facebook page to be able to download the client. So i get more publicity that way. Thats a very bad idea, it might even keep people away from downloading your client, its better to advertise on indie game sites and (gaming) forums.

BUMP Is there really no-one who would like to map for WLW?

 [Link to topic](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/community/index.php?/topic/113891-wip-world-life-warfare-0443/) [Link to website (needs to be redone at some point)](http://www.worldlifewarfare.com) Download link: [http://forums.worldl…x.php?board=6.0](http://forums.worldlifewarfare.com/index.php?board=6.0) **Task Information** World Life Warfare is seeking for a mapper who can spend at least 5 hours a week on mapping. We're using RMXP (we plan on using custom tilesets at a later stage), but then in a modern setting. If you want to apply, send me some examples of maps you've made. If you have questions about the project or the job, PM me or post it in this topic.

> and there are different way to handle the multi char.  How? xD Because I tried adding in Eclipse Dawn's character system but then the Rec's got over 64k and I got error.

If you don't want people to talk about the poll then don't add it in. xD Anyway, to your question: > Is there a tutorial for Alatar's House editor for DX8 Not at the moment, but there's not much DX8 involved in that, only for the Roof system I believe.

Try installing the runtimes as Administrator, like Robin pointed out in the topic. 

For which engine?

Second is better, its like asking: "Will 3 eggs be more expensive than one?"  I'll explain why it's better: First option sends 2 packets, with almost no extra client work. Second option sends 1 packet, but the client has to do some extra work (the Select Case's), but the user won't notice because that's done pretty fast.

Download a copy of a clear [engine name] you're using, and then search for AddProgress, copy/paste the whole sub into your client which gets the error.

> it works but when you put map 50x50 it start blinking when you walk :S I confirm this issue, it starts blinking like crazy, but only when you walk. Are you gonna look into it (I know you said you would but just a reminder xD)

Post your BltProjectile, so that we can take a look at it.

Server will defenitely work, for client I think you need WINE or it probably doesn't work at all, but I haven't tested client on VM.

> Sadly i can fix all bugs reported, but i do not have access to my pc :'( When do you get access to your PC then?

Could you explain what you mean by : * Edited DirectX7 * Edited Buffer * Edited some functions Because I'm wondering what you've changed or added.

> Same thing, this dosent seem to help In my EO2 I have this, which seems to work: ``` SetPlayerExp MyIndex, Buffer.ReadLong TNL = Buffer.ReadLong frmMain.lblEXP.Caption = GetPlayerExp(MyIndex) & "/" & TNL ' mp bar frmMain.imgEXPBar.width = ((GetPlayerExp(MyIndex) / EXPBar_Width) / (TNL / EXPBar_Width)) * EXPBar_Width ```

Alright, thanks guys
