Download Eclipse from the website http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/TE_1.0.zip I recommend starting with TE then moving onto the more advanced program later on once you have mastered this program. Once TE is done downloading extract the file from its zip folder Once you’ve got this done then you can proceed into the “Server Folder” Once you’re inside open the file that says “Server.exe” Once clicking it will bring open the server The Finished Tutorial will have pictures Let me know what you think so far.

I think a Community Radio would be sweet, have online DJ's, and stuff I know a few programs that can do this or we can make our own program. but let me know what ya'all think

What ya all Think of my new Avatar? Sprite made by MegaMoogle-Armor by me

Ok I've been through the source but I can't find the Paperdoll Part can someone Point me in the right direction, also the sprite part too where it reads the sprite pic an draws it on the pic. I don't need to have the code posts just what module it is in an what line

Ok I hate asking this, makes me feel like a nub but I can not find Barons, Image Encyrpter I've searched and searched but nothin! Please can someone post the link to it. Also Marsh you should post the link to it, in Resources on the Home Page.

Can someone make me a Online Offline Thing for my Game, It does not have to be spetacular, All I ask is that it look nice. Also I would like to so it can tell how many players are online and how many the server can hold like lets say there was 10players online an the cap was at 50 so it would look like Online! 10/50

Hey Everyone here is a HangMan Game I think is really cool If you get the answer wrong God Kills a Kitten! Have fun http://www.mediafire.com/?exp0zdmitph let me know what you all think!

Ok recently I was pondering the thought of having a Game Engine built professionally, not saying none of the Eclipse dev. people are not professionals but I mean a team of special people with the tools, skills and know how to make a kick ass engine. So I went to the only place for this, Rent a Coder. Well I placed a bid request with all the features that would be needed, I wanted for about 3 days I got a reply from some company based out of Texas there bid for me was $25.00USD I then got another reply from them after I asked a few questions and asked for a budget report. now this is very shocking, I think they are over charging but anyways take a look. http://www.rentacoder.com/RentACoder/misc/Isolate/DownloadFile.asp?lngDownloadTypeId=5&lngInteger1=12922128 Now seeing this makes me greatfull for Eclipse it really does. ~Tivoilos

Ok Everytime I make a map an try to delete it it wont go away but my other players can not see the map any ideas whats wrong?

Ok Basicly I was wondering if this would work? I currently do not have a working Eclipse Client so I can not test it. What is does-It checks you gender to see if you can change into a certen sprite. ``` Sub ScriptedTile(index) Select Case Script Case 0 If GetPlayerGender(index) = Male Then SetPlayerSprite(index) = 1 Call PlayerMsg(index, "You Are now a Human", 1) Else If GetPlayerGender(index) = Female Then Call PlayerMsg(index, "You can not be that you are not a Male", 3) End If Case 1 If GetPlayerGender(index) = Female Then SetPlayeSprite(index) = 2 Call PlayerMsg(index, "You are now a Human", 2) Else If GetPlayerGender(index) = Male Then Call PlayerMsg(index, "You can not be that you are a Male", 4) End If End Select End Sub ``` "Scripting Questions" might be for, I don't know, questions about scripting, perhaps?

Ok I have a Questions, that I would like to be answered. How Do I make my Account/Character a Admin in EE 2.2?

Is the Paperdoll for EE working Yet? If not is someone working on it? ~Tivoilos

Hey, well I've been seeing the word Uber thrown around alot, I just wanted to know what you think it means? I know what it means, it;s German, if you didn't know that. But I just want to know if any of you people know what it really means. Also there is two different meanings, one of them is German and then the other one is Greek the German word Uber looks like this **über** ~Tivoilos

I thought this would be a good add to the resources, I know that Eclipse Already has there own version but I thought I would post mine. Ya never know when it can come in handy, a lot of Vb programs can use something like this. This is the Module that allows you to write the .ini files ``` Option Explicit Public Function WriteIniValue(INIpath As String, PutKey As String, PutVariable As String, PutValue As String) Dim Temp As String Dim LcaseTemp As String Dim ReadKey As String Dim ReadVariable As String Dim LOKEY As Integer Dim HIKEY As Integer Dim KEYLEN As Integer Dim VAR As Integer Dim VARENDOFLINE As Integer Dim NF As Integer Dim X As Integer AssignVariables: NF = FreeFile ReadKey = vbCrLf & "[" & LCase$(PutKey) & "]" & Chr$(13) KEYLEN = Len(ReadKey) ReadVariable = Chr$(10) & LCase$(PutVariable) & "=" EnsureFileExists: Open INIpath For Binary As NF Close NF SetAttr INIpath, vbArchive LoadFile: Open INIpath For Input As NF Temp = Input$(LOF(NF), NF) Temp = vbCrLf & Temp & "[]" Close NF LcaseTemp = LCase$(Temp) LogicMenu: LOKEY = InStr(LcaseTemp, ReadKey) If LOKEY = 0 Then GoTo AddKey: HIKEY = InStr(LOKEY + KEYLEN, LcaseTemp, "[") VAR = InStr(LOKEY, LcaseTemp, ReadVariable) If VAR > HIKEY Or VAR < LOKEY Then GoTo AddVariable: GoTo RenewVariable: AddKey: Temp = Left$(Temp, Len(Temp) - 2) Temp = Temp & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "[" & PutKey & "]" & vbCrLf & PutVariable & "=" & PutValue GoTo TrimFinalString: AddVariable: Temp = Left$(Temp, Len(Temp) - 2) Temp = Left$(Temp, LOKEY + KEYLEN) & PutVariable & "=" & PutValue & vbCrLf & Mid$(Temp, LOKEY + KEYLEN + 1) GoTo TrimFinalString: RenewVariable: Temp = Left$(Temp, Len(Temp) - 2) VARENDOFLINE = InStr(VAR, Temp, Chr$(13)) Temp = Left$(Temp, VAR) & PutVariable & "=" & PutValue & Mid$(Temp, VARENDOFLINE) GoTo TrimFinalString: TrimFinalString: Temp = Mid$(Temp, 2) Do Until InStr(Temp, vbCrLf & vbCrLf & vbCrLf) = 0 Temp = Replace(Temp, vbCrLf & vbCrLf & vbCrLf, vbCrLf & vbCrLf) Loop Do Until Right$(Temp, 1) > Chr$(13) Temp = Left$(Temp, Len(Temp) - 1) Loop Do Until Left$(Temp, 1) > Chr$(13) Temp = Mid$(Temp, 2) Loop OutputAmendedINIFile: Open INIpath For Output As NF Print #NF, Temp Close NF End Function ``` Here is how your code must work to make a .ini ``` Private Sub Form_load() WriteIniValue App.Path & "\test.ini", "Default", "Test", Text1.text End Sub ``` pretty easy eh? –----------------------------------- Here is the Read .ini Module ``` Option Explicit Public Function ReadIniValue(INIpath As String, KEY As String, Variable As String) As String Dim NF As Integer Dim Temp As String Dim LcaseTemp As String Dim ReadyToRead As Boolean AssignVariables: NF = FreeFile ReadIniValue = "" KEY = "[" & LCase$(KEY) & "]" Variable = LCase$(Variable) EnsureFileExists: Open INIpath For Binary As NF Close NF SetAttr INIpath, vbArchive LoadFile: Open INIpath For Input As NF While Not EOF(NF) Line Input #NF, Temp LcaseTemp = LCase$(Temp) If InStr(LcaseTemp, "[") 0 Then ReadyToRead = False If LcaseTemp = KEY Then ReadyToRead = True If InStr(LcaseTemp, "[") = 0 And ReadyToRead = True Then If InStr(LcaseTemp, Variable & "=") = 1 Then ReadIniValue = Mid$(Temp, 1 + Len(Variable & "=")) Close NF: Exit Function End If End If Wend Close NF End Function ``` to get it to work then your code should look like this ``` Text2.Text = ReadIniValue(App.Path & "\test.ini", "Default", "Test") ``` well That is about it hope this helps someone in the furture
