Great engine, i am just wondering why you are using 2 methods of rendering with DX8? First is normal, like in EO 3.0 for example, and second is with Direct2DSprite or somewhat.

I do not have time to help you, but you can use some things from Pokémon Origins from this MS package: http://web.miragesource.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=216&t=9853

You mean for example Items.bmp, Sprites.bmp, Spells.bmp like in old engines?

This is my first negavite post since unban, but i must post this. DO NOT USE THIS TUTORIAL Reasons: * Massive server CPS drop (as [Kyle](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/community/index.php?/user/49159-kyle9217/) stated above) * This will broke a lot of timers (i mean GetTickCount timers, not VB6 ones) becouse of placing timers into loops * Becouse of above reason, for example only Map# UpdateMapLogic is processed, and for other maps it isn´t Idk why no1 noticed this, but i think reason is that nobody tested it (except [Kyle](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/community/index.php?/user/49159-kyle9217/))

Implement FMOD or BASS sound engine. If you wanna still play midis too then use FMOD, or BASS with BASSmidi addon.

EDIT: Nevermind.. EDIT2: Why you have 30 classes? 

> ok, i'll let photoshop center them ^^ > > Yeah, it seems it was too much to the right, and the S in secret wasn't capital letter. > >  Alot better 

First one. But both aren't very nice  At first one i do not like that grey thing, and second one isn't centered at all (try moving that bg image a bit to left)

^ It is not hard 2do, but too generic.

> Looks like a Crawle/Colonies clone.. Reason?

Working on it for next version.

Hmm Sherwin decide finnaly about what your game be  you started and stopped 2 projects (as i can remember) and now you again totally changing your project lol  But idk why others are saying that this graphics are bad. To me they are looking very nice.

Checked link and it is not dead. And when you are changing map size, you must change it, then save map and then reopen map editor again.

No. You must add it into throught vb6 too. If it isn´t there, then it can play only midis as music and wavs as sounds.

Look in client folder if there is fmod.dll. If yes then it is using fmod sound engine.

Yea i rushed it  And i was doing it at 2am in morning. Thx for report i will fix it in next version.

If it is using fmod then it can play oggs, mp3, midis, wavs

Oh so graphical bug. Hmm so that isn't that important. And you can exit trade when you press decline/exit

Make post on IndieDB

Yea. Add new value to playerrec called f.e. Transsprite and then add check in drawplayer if transsprite > 0 then rendertexture tex_char(transsprite)…. Else *your normal player drawing here* End if

What trade bug? 

Oh duck really  i forgot to add panoramas folder lol 

**New version** I do not added all features what i planned, becouse i wanted release this new version as soon as possible. But i added almost everything what i wanted into. **v0.0.9 -> v0.0.10** - New logo - Added Client-Side account editor - SendPlayerDir fix - Added NPCvNPC combat - Added Projectiles - FPS locked back to 32 - Fixed withdrawing currency from bank - Added Social Icons - Added Y-based rendering for NPCs, Characters and Resources - Fixed spell editor bug what was causing to not loading fraWindow correctly for each spell type - Fixed cmbBranchSkill populating - Added real shadows - Fixed minor ClearAttributteDialogue bug - Now on attackable NPCs if event is choosed then it will run when that NPC is killed - Npc critical hit fix - Fixed client side Player_Highindex - Changed MAX_LEVELS to 99 - Added Fogs, Tint and Panoramas - Added new Resources graphics - Added new Tilesets graphics

It is looking like he is coming directly "from" that wall, idk if you meant it to be like that (i think no).
