Remember, spritesheet starts at 0, not 1 that helped :D what should i do with the "elcipse final" since im not using it???? delete it??? im opening "evolotion 2.7 .zip" and doing all this.

@DrNova: > Ugh, runescape.. Well if you mean 3d, this isnt a 3d engine, your outta luck. > Learn scripting for a decent one, or learn VB for a good one.A poor leveling scheme, if done per timeframe(in my opinon) But can be done. Again, learn scripting > Easy, if you learn scripting. > Learn Visual Basic(6) What for anyways? > There is a party system(basically useless) and a guild system(basically useless as well) already in, learn to script to make custom systems(or code for even better ones) Bosses can be scriptable. > > To sum it all up. > Your going to have to put in the TIME AND EFFORT TO LEARN TO SCRIPT, at the very least. I say this in bold, because its nearly essential for a succesful project, and especially if you want anything near what you'll need for a sonic project. > Few people ever take the time to learn it though, so I'm not betting money on you for that one. > > As for hamachi, dont use it. > Hamachi basically = Project fail. > > Even if you manage not to lose dedication and actually put in the effort to make a well crafted game, most people arent going to want to download your game, THEN have to download ANOTHER (crappy) program just to connect to it. > > Take the small bit of effort needed to learn port fowarding as well. > Thats my advice, take it or leave it. > > (p.s. Runescape is terrible. Don't be too inspired by it when making your project.) well… so basicly, i have to learn visual basic to anything that i want to do. what do i have to open to start scripting?? i had a few added questions (i just messed around with and couldnt get to work) GUI folder: for some reason i edit the the client. where the NEWS area is. i right clicked the image and "open with" and "paint" i used the bucket tool and changed the news area to white. it wouldnt show on the client Sprites: im trying to add sonic sprites in the GFX folder but where do i go to SELECT edited sprites on the client??? im not sure how do even change the sprites BTW, my diciation IS VERYYYYYYYYYY HIGH on eclipse thanks again!!! DR.Nova =D

@Gwen: > you didnt waste anyone's time… > > Were you able to get your errors fixed? lol yup… now i heard there i have to download "logmein hamachi" if i dont have portforwarding set up on your computer. i need a lill bit more detail on what that does actually than just allow people to join. THANKS!!!!

@DrNova: > Just advice, unless you plan on some nice source edits, I'd advise against a sonic mmo. > > Some of the things sonic games are recognized by(signiture gameplay features) Arent possible without extensive coding, and some not possible at all. > Fangames = Epic Fail unless the gameplay stays comparable to the original's yes, sorry if i wasted your time. those screenshots of your errors are the same exact ones i have on my computer. if you would to know the game layout, ill explain 1\. k, well basicly the camera view i want to look like runescape (yes i know XD) 2\. jump action 3\. you lvl up about every 15 times and get a new attack set. 4\. i want the player to have the ablity to change characters from like sonic (lvl 5) to tails (lvl 16) 5\. A BIG ONE! is it possible to make one than one screen (just like runescape) 6\. PARTY/GUILD BOSSES

i've got the eclipse final version becuz for some reason it wont allow me to open the server on the updated version (it pops up many error messages) yes, im new to this program and im learning it step by step hoping eventually i will become a pro XD THANKS, i really appericate you guys helping me. =D p.s lol, something tells me godlord is going to see this XD
