This one should be working https://www.mediafire.com/file/diyr1zwsbwbr3jx/Eclipse-Evolution-2.7.rar/file You might need the runtime files (https://www.mediafire.com/file/ll0jbjg0zs132tn/Run_First%21_%28Runtime_Files_-_If_Needed%29.exe/file), and you will need to register "Eclipse-Evolution-2.7\Client\Data\COMSocketServer.dll" to run the server

Ah, I forgot to change the link to a better version. The one you have doesn't always install correctly (not sure why). I fixed it to a link that should work properly. Here's the working runtimes

There's a bunch of versions in my profile https://forum.eclipseorigins.com/index.php?/profile/3-mohenjo-daro/&tab=field_core_pfield_1

Yep, here's a link https://discord.gg/rU7ATMk Oh, that's good to know. I'll have to keep that in mind for fixing

This engine isn't dead, but I haven't had much time to work on it this past year due to my job. The forum is another matter, and it's as alive as the community. There is more chatter on the discord.

I like the color, but it feels like it clashes with the wall's pallet. Looks good with the tables, though.

I think I'll expand the idea of animations, as well. You have an animation for the station not being used (a still image in this case) and being used, but having the option of playing a different animation when actually crafting an item (assuming it takes time to craft) could also be cool. Eg. the loom: still image normally, has the edges moving when the player is using it, and has the edges moving and thread being weaved when the player is crafting an item (again, requires there to be crafting times, eg. 5sec to make a cloak) It's the little things in games that add immersion

Looks good. Don't think I've seen animated crafting stations here before, so kudos (might have to steal that idea later lmao)

Hehe, it rotated them poorly XD (sorry, I just find it funny since I had that issue when doing the same thing) As for turning them off, open the vbp file with VB6 IDE. Search for something along the lines of DrawShadow, and comment it out. Or, you can go to the DrawShadow sub, and add a Exit Sub for the first line. After either of those, save it and compile it (File -> Make ENGINE_NAME.exe)

For the actual animation, look for `' animate autotiles` in `GameLoop` I would recommend changing the code to have a constant for the max frames, then check if autoTileFrame = the const, if so, set it to 0, otherwise add 1 (I don't know why they used a select case...) As for the selection box, look for `' change selected shape for autotiles` in `EditorMap_DrawTileset`

Not dead, Zyn just doesn't post many updates about it

I'm not totally clear on a few things you're asking, so I'll do my best to answer everything :) Eclipse Renewal doesn't have a scripting system, but you are able to change the code if you have VB6 (VB.Net or other IDEs won't work). The areas of code you would need to change are the player attributes (both client and server), the character rendering (client in modGraphics), and the character creation in frmMenu. It's not a hard change to make if you know what you're doing, but otherwise it can be a pain finding everything. I think the damage numbers are shown when you attack, but I could be mistaken. If they aren't shown, the areas of code that would need changing are in modHandleData (cleint) where the combat damage is received (if it's not sent, then you need to edit modServerTCL {server] to send the data), and modGraphics (client side) to render the damage for a brief time. --- My overall thoughts on Eclipse Renewal 1.8 is that it's a good middle ground engine. There are some bugs (the biggest is a warp/teleport issue), and it's not feature rich like some other engines. I probably wouldn't use it solely because I can program the features I do and don't want, but for someone with more limited experience coding in these engines, it's not a bad engine to use, but it's probably not the best, either. However, I am still working on ER 1.9, but there is no release date currently. I'm super busy with my job, and optimizing it as I go is really slowing me down as well. So, I would say don't wait for me to finish so you can use it, since that could be a year or two (if not more) at this rate. --- As for MMO status, I don't know of any engine on this site that can handle more than 30-ish players at a time.

@lel Guys, please don't be necro-ing threads to trash talk, thanks lol

The only thing you should need to install are the runtimes, and those will need administrator privilege to install. The engines themselves just need to be downloaded and extracted. A few questions: 1) What's the link to the file you're trying to install? 2) What OS are you using? 3) Do you have admin privileges?
