> I think you're crazy to compete with RPG Maker/Game Maker/Stencyl/Construct 2/Construct Classic if you plan on using the Visual Basic 6 language or Mirage for the core engine. There are so many engines out that work fine for single-player games. Then i just have to beat them all don't i?

> Can't clearly understand this, your making a single player RPG engine….under the name of Eclipse? Can't see where you are taking your bases from because if your using CS:DE's DX8 methods your stepping into problems. no not using CS:DE's methods. that this is an untamed animal. Yes for now it is a single player RPG engine, i want to get the games features done then add netowrking and multiplayer functions.

is there a way to change the name of the src? i mean if i change it i get an error is there a way to change that?

Sent you some suggestions

I can help with gui. As Vus stated you might want to add more info on the game it's self.

**Data Types:** ``` char : using ASCII int : stores integer values ( -32768 to 32767) short : stores small integers ( -128 to 127) long : stores big integer (-2 billion to 2 billion) float : decimals stored ``` To be finished my computer has shut down in 1 minute message!

Does anyone know what OSC is? i am curious about it

Somethings you just have to run it as ADMINISTRATOR. try it and see. I say this because i had one of those errors.

> I mean this with as much love as possible, I would consider leaving future posts on your project here for when you have more information, AND screenshots showing actual game progress and not just the cosmetics. There are reasons why some people (myself included) haven't made a thread such as this yet, because there simply isn't enough done yet to even call it a work in progress. > > Show some mapping….character designs, etc. This will prevent anymore negative feedback, unless your work isn't up to par. Thanks will do.

Good luck champion. Is this going to based of the original eclipse?

> Bullet points would've looked a lot better than those WoW icons. Just saying. > Yea, after few years of playing wow, it just hits my eyes. Yeah i need to change that

> Not sure why you've rushed to make a topic for your game when all you have is a few lines of story and some very low quality icons and text. I have things done.. I just decided to make a thread for it. I was working on game before i even made the thread. I made a thread long time ago but i got the admin to delete it until i can get some stuff done first.

Already talked about it with counselor. And i am doing COmputer Science. Already picked the colleges and everything.

Closed More Content Needed

> It's alright, my school has a dreamspark client so I should be able to get it for free once I sign on. I just don't know if the licence ends when I'm not a student any more or not. Nope i think once you have it . You keep for ever till you die. Or Computers are banned from the whole world

> Well, they added monk, so there is some kung fu. Every race except worgen and goblin can be monk. > > They also showed some of their culture etc in trailer > > [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyeZ8khSEC0&feature=plcp[/media] Thanks for sharing that. Lol tempting to play WOW.. Almost.

> You got to the wrong neighborhood my friend. This place is infested with stoners. This guy is a priest!

> Don't you have to get a licence to use vb6? If you mean buying it then yes. But there are other ways of getting it. I can't share some things on this board so you can pm me and i can help you with getting it.

Devo. Can i make a request? Game Name: Erlorian Heroes. Information: It is a medival themed game. I don't want to sound plain and general. When i say medival i mean dragons knights, the whole mythtical creatures. I would like The Name Erlorian Heroes with maybe a sword some where in it and or a dragon incorperated some where in it. If that is too plain or retard. You can do it anyway you feel will make it nicer.

> The main issue is that inbetween expansions, they don't add new content for all players or new and interesting mechanics enough, or they mess around with the difficulty instead of sticking to a solid idea.. At least in my opinion, so far so good though. Made a new panda and not rushing it for once, playing slowly and doing what I feel like.  Do they look cool?. Like have kung fu skills or something? Can you guys post pictures of ingame action?

This is what happens to people when they meet WOW. 1) if it is your first time playing the game ; YOU WILL BE ADDICTED! * Then start wasting money on it because you saw some one wiht awsome stuff and you just want it too. * After months maybe years you start to realize is it really worth it? * That is where step 2 comes in. 2) Blizzard just happen to release the next expansion of the game. 1. Ahh now your eyes get that sparkle as you watch the trailer in all it's splenderous and glorious beauty. YOU ARE HOOKED! * Then you repeat the first step except this time you are not new anymore, you are probably a high level player. newbs look to you for inspiration. But, this is also bad because with the expansion you notice that you are quite bored with your level and wish to relive the days of low level and that is where you make a new character. * Soon you become bored and just hate the fact that you have to level up again and how you just feel like it is going to be a long journey to get to max level. Your lust for WOW is faintly but rapidly depleting. You quite maybe a day or two after this. Usually, the subject quites faster with long hours of game play. * That is where step 3 comes up. 3) Months maybe years go by and you see a new WOW expansion and you start remembering the days…. then As Marshy and Joyce stated. You just can't wait to try out new chars, features. * You get hooked and yet again you get that sparkle in your eyes just thinking of the game and what you are going to do. * Sadly after a couple of days or months while the game and it's new features keeps you entertained you get bored again. * This time even if you go back to the game. You will almost always start on step 2. * And that is my problem with WOW

Oh dear lord. Kill me now!
