Wow, looking nice Joyce. Keep it up and Eclipse may one day get out of the stone age! Can't wait to see more, good luck.

Version 4 needs to added to the download list on the original post.

Looking better and better. If you ever need someone to test things out let me know. ;)

You are using EO4 which, as far as can tell, does not have directional blocking.

Sounds like it would be a nice engine. I would buy it but I'm broke. Anyways, I hope you have some luck selling this engine; would hate to see it go to no use.

Okay so I followed this tutuorial http://www.eclipseorigins.com/thread-7228.html and managed to added map animation layers to the SEB Engine. I have a couple issues though that I can't seem to figure out. The fringe animation plays below the fringe layer for some reason and the mask2/fringe2 animation layers won't display tiles. I'm not sure where to look or what to look for so any help would be great. Here is the link to the SEB Engine. http://www.eclipseorigins.com/thread-710.html Thanks again for the help.

I agree with Marsh, this does look great. Looks like you have added every cool feature most MMO's have into an Eclipse game. I'm really looking forward to playing this.

@'TehDoug': > Feedback: > > No, I'm not being paid for this epic and 100% honest review of this game. > > At first the chickens (cocks actually) took too long to kill, but after that I got my pass and entered the REAL game, met some awesome people and even made out with a chick in a city who asked me to help her find her mothers necklace (to which i accepted the quest but blew her off, not having sloppy seconds(even if they are my own!)) > > After a while I got lost and decided to speed hack through the empty woods (server kept dying and I was like 5 maps away) . I turned it off before engaging in combat and didn't exactly hide it from the staff. I even gave chase to some hot ass called kenzie (ikr, hot hot). So anyway I found myself in a bunch of Shroom's (baring in mind the role playing I engaged in was out of this WORLD) and decided to speed hack whilst running around. (as 99% of you know you gain no actual benefit like attack speed etc. It actually messing up with the CD of spells so you don't know when you can lauch that SOAB into another world with a fireball. So it actually a even playing field, No PVP or anything and then hotty kenzie came to spy on me, I just kept doing my thang, got my stacks on deck like I'm saving up. She then hollas her bf/husband/wife/brother/sister/auntie/uncle/great auntie/great uncle/grandpa/grandma/great grandma/great grandpa that I'm speeding and that he'd seen it (with his jam jar glasses on) on her screen and he then took it upon himself to threaten me with violence and it was my last warning. I said I'm not being followed around like some cheese pizza loving pedophile might as well ban me now. He proceeds to remove me from the game and then tell everyone that I had a small Weiner. > > Stars? > >  > > Would I play again? I'm still online right now..What you waiting for? LMFAO! That has to be the best game review I have ever read. Anyways, I will get around to playing this game and let you know what I think. Don't worry, I won't speed hack.

Okay so for the FPS problem when using auto/animated tiles, I don't have this issue with EW or EO4\. I am no programmer so I have no suggestions on how to fix it except maybe look at how those two engines got this issue resolved. I think EO4 has an FPS rate capped at 32 so maybe set a capped frame rate? I just don't like how a map without auto/animated tiles has a solid 64 fps and correct movement but then when you add auto/animated tiles the fps drops significantly and player movement speeds up drastically.

As the topic says, whats new with EO 4.3.4? I've searched and I can't seem to find a thread anywhere talking about the update.

So will there be a fix for the movement issue?

Okay so I am now experiencing the movement bug as well. I guess I didn't notice until I made a new map and transferred to it but yes there is a considerable difference in movement speed when walking from one map to another. On map1 I move really faster and on map2 I move normal. I can't seem to track down whats causing this but I'm going to keep trying to figure it out. Jaxx, what is the Eclipse-wide GPU to Movement bug you referred to exactly? Okay so I think I figured out what happens with movement speed. If there are a decent high amount of autotiles on a map your FPS will drop from 64 to around 40-45 causing player movement speed to increase for some reason. A simple fix for this would be to avoid using autotiles unless absolutely necessary, that is, if Jaxx decides to fix this issue.

Your work is pretty good. Keep it up. * * * Nice share. The GUI is pretty cool. Any chance you could make a more fantasy like GUI as opposed to a sci-fi?

You need to have them set in the properties and have the npc spawn attribute. The fact that the map editor spawns npcs without npc spawn tiles is an issue that needs fixed within its self, npcs shouldn't spawn without an npc spawn attribute unless an event spawns them.

So did you try the npc spawn attribute? Like I said, from what I could tell you didn't put the npc spawn attribute down, which is why you are getting an error.

The animation error it is on your part I think. I believe the problem is being caused, from what I could tell from your video, is that you didn't put down a NPC Spawn attribute so the map is 'force' spawning the npc's in a way. For the speed problem, maybe I'm not seeing what your talking about but from the videos you have posted I don't really notice a speed change but I'll keep watching and see if I can think up any suggestions.

Okay so I noticed that npcs can cast blinding spells but not stealth spells. Not sure if that is meant to be or not but I think npcs should be able to cast stealth spells. Also, when blinded you can still see player/npcs names, again not sure if it meant to be like that but shouldn't names disappear also? Last thing, when npcs cast spells there is no casting animation and it would be helpful if the casting animation played. Also, npcs don't seem to target you again once you come out of stealth mode. These are not necessary things but they would be nice. Again, thanks for the engine.

@'Jaxx': > Hey Zetasis. Either you have Night disabled or it's a bug I didn't catch when making the engine compatible for release. I'll take a look when I get home :D > > And yeah, Bubblegum, it was the conversion :/ I'll be fixing it up later today :D Alright cool. I'll keep an eye out for an update and if I find any more bugs I'll be sure to post them. Again, thanks for the engine.

Hello everyone, Zetasis here. I can't seem to figure out how to change my display name back to Zetasis. I do not want to go by riokoshin! If I can't change it myself could an admin do it please? Anyways thanks and I'm liking the way the new forums are looking. I do miss the shout box but I'm sure theres something in the works for that.

Wow, this is very impressive. Thanks for releasing it! This is going to help me soo much thanks again guys for all your hard work and generosity. Edit: Also noticed something. As far as I can tell the day and night system have no visual difference, is that how it is supposed to be?

I saw that on Video Games the Documentary I'm pretty sure.

So this works great and everything but one thing that I noticed is that if you attack an npc when the npc is not looking at you the npc will not turn and face you while attacking. Anyone know of a fix for this?

Looks pretty cool. I'll definitely give this a try once its released. How long do you plan on developing this? I mean what are some things you plan on adding to this?

Looking better and better. So what are you planning on having done before a release? I guess I didn't realize there were so many things missing from this engine such as the pokemon spawning and other things you've added.

Anyways, how many sprites are we talking here because I might be willing to do them myself for you.
