The other day my friends and I were testing the server and everything was good. Then everyone logged off and since then the server has been running at 0 CPS. I can restart the server but this doesn't change. When I login while the server is like this i can download maps but the npcs don't move and other players don't move on my screen. There are no error messages. Any ideas?

For anyone wondering about the graphics, they're in the credits but here's their website. [http://oryxdesignlab.com/sprites/](http://oryxdesignlab.com/sprites/)
I ended up having to write a converter to use all of the sprites but I really like the way they turned out. -
> nice game i played to lvl 5 needs a checkpoint system and guilds and quest and i think it would be a good game that might go some were
Thanks for the ideas. I'll be adding guilds and quest in the near future. checkpoints may come later. -

Intro
Hello my name is Justin Knight and I've been around here for a little while mostly popping in whenever I think about making an mmo. Today I'd like to publicly unveiled the ORPG I've been working on for the past few months. My buddy, Evan and I at Bread Vision Studios have been working our tails off adding features and making sure all the bugs are worked out before releasing any public versions of the game but we finally think it's ready for a bit of player testing.
Our Goal
We started work on Mystica with the hope of giving fans of 2D mmorpgs a solid game to enjoy, where they can hang out, go on adventures, and maybe make some new friends. Some of my best memories as a child are from all the hours I put into games like Maplestory and Endless Online. At Bread Vision Studios, we feel that a simpler game allows for a better community of players. As of right now the game is relatively simple, only going up to level 10 and no real story. However as we build up the game we hope to build story through lore and narrative. Less get quests and more of an open ended story that you can choose to take part in if you so choose.
Neat Features
>! -Our server is running on a dedicated business class connection so there is little fear of bandwidth issues.
>! -The game runs on a custom version of EO.
>! -There are no default graphics or music and we're currently creating new sound effects.
>! -Mystica is ready for play up to level 20 (gameplay of about 3 hours) but we're currently working on 21-30 and should have that finished soon.
>! -Mystica will be free to play but players will have the option of buying a boarding pass from our site, allowing them to explore multiple future expansions. Boarding passes will also be tradeable in game but will not be sold by npcs.
>! -Features auto updater
>! -Installer registers all necessary library files
>! -There are 7 virtual night clubs in game that feature live radio from Electro Wave Radio

Im not good at vb6 at all but here's a few things I had to do to get this working.
In modGameEditors find this
```
.txtChance.text = CStr(Npc(EditorIndex).DropChance)
.scrlNum.Value = Npc(EditorIndex).DropItem
.scrlValue.Value = Npc(EditorIndex).DropItemValue
```
and change it to this
```
.txtChance.text = CStr(Npc(EditorIndex).DropChance(1))
.scrlNum.Value = Npc(EditorIndex).DropItem(1)
.scrlValue.Value = Npc(EditorIndex).DropItemValue(1)
```
in the last block of code in the OP
```
i = Split(txtChance.text = Int(i(0) / i(1) * 1000 / 1000
```
just needs some end parentheses
```
i = Split(txtChance.text = Int(i(0) / i(1)) * 1000 / 1000)
```
I also set the scroll bar minimum to 1 that seems to help too.
WARNING! I don't know what I'm doing! This could all be wrong!!! -
wow that'd be great if you would really do that for me!?
I added you on skype my name is Zombie Pixel -
Does anyone have the attachments for this post anymore?

Never mind no piracy allowed :P

Get vb6 installed and get to work fixing bugs and installing features. Your custom engine is gonna be the best for you. I guess most people don't have time for all that though…
-
How much is an ad? I'd like to get an ad for breadvisionstudios.com if I can. I'm not even sure who I'd talk to so I thought I'd start here.
-
I'm a game designer, co-founder of Bread Vision Studios. Also a DJ/chiptune artist by the name Zombie Pixel.
I work at a computer store and when I get home I stay up all night working on games and music. I do this all week until Sunday when I sleep for 24 hours to make up for lost sleep and start over again.
I've also been here for a while but that doesn't matter. =P -
I was hopping I could stop the user from sending a chat on the client side so the server wouldn't even have to worry about it. Is there a way to use the chat bubble to stop flooding? I know that sounds weird but is there a simple if statement I could use to check and see if the user still has a chat bubble before allowing them to chat? I'm still trying to figure vb6 out here.
-
If you get a demo together let me know. look pretty cool
-
I was playing your game today and I was quite inspired. I added the stats to my item descriptions and I learned a lot from your tutorial. These are some really cool features, you're quite the programmer.

It's been a long time since I've used photoshop so I'm quite proud of my work.
This is for a the cover of my upcoming game Fitz the Fox.
I've attached both the original sprite and the work for the box art.
More on Fitz the Fox here. [https://breadvisionstudios.com/fitz-the-fox/](https://breadvisionstudios.com/fitz-the-fox/) -
Graphical quality does not matter as much as gameplay quality.
Most of the people I know waste $1500 PCs on games like minecraft, thomas was alone, and emulation. -
Thanks for the words guys. I'm not really sure how I can make the maps more interesting myself. I need a creative mapper that can work with a pretty limited tile set.
-
Don't use this logo, it's awful. I thought "Oh! I can make that no problem." and then this happened.
If for some reason you do like it, it's all yours. -
How can I put a timer on the chat box so you have to wait 1-2 seconds before chatting?
-
I just wanted to show of some screenshots from my upcoming game and see what you guys think. Still have a few more months before any kind of public testing but maybe this will still peek your interest.
If you want you can follow the project and more at [https://breadvisionstudios.com/](https://breadvisionstudios.com/)
We also have a facebook and twitter and I hang out here a lot. -
I found that I can use ctrl+c to copy and ctrl+v to paste but I can't paste to another map. Is there anyway I could possibly do this? It'd make things like doors, chest, and ovens a lot easier to put around my world.
edit: I'm dumb, I just had to press the key combo slower. It works from map to map. -
Oh I see now, that's neat.

what does a world shop do if you don't mind me asking.

I don't know if you want/need it but here's a free logo if you can't find another you like. All yours no credit required
Server is frozen on boot
in Q & A
Posted
I restarted the machine but it never came back to me so I had to have a tech on location turn the computer back on. He told me it wasn't booting and he fixed it. After that the EO3 server started working again.
So idk what happened but whatever i guess.
