Would the community support a C implementation?

@Admiral:

> Why would Java be better?  And please don't say "because it runs in a browser."

Because it is converted to bytecode and interpreted by an interpreter written by someone else and then run virtually in a VM in the operating system so that it can be cross-platform, slow, and require minimal effort by the programmer to get it to be cross-platform. I think that sums it up.

Edit: I forgot the crappy Memory Allocation that you cannot control.

I support this Admiral America, sounds like a good idea. (Only if you do it in C though, not some crappy high-level programming language like I did mine in.)

Thanks,

It would be a great idea considering C is cross platform like you said, Also i could help out with some of the programming anytime i have nothing better to do. I did already start an engine in Obj-C but if your gonna do this its not worth it, It would be better to do it in C.

I honestly prefer Java and not just because I'm a Java programmer.

However, this is not a bad idea, depend on what it can offer. If it is easy to understand the code and easy to use for non-programmer or need very little programming knowledge to use, I think it'd be great.

And I see where you're going with the C and not the C++ or Java. So yeah, this might be great but I have a feeling, we're gonna have to wait a couple of years before we'll even have the Alpha.

Sincerely,
Rithy

PS: So what happen to the Java Eclipse aka Solar Eclipse?

I'm assuming it'll be Stephan and/or Anthony doing most of the work on this and I'm pretty sure either of them could get the engine core out in no time.

More than likely OpenGL. (T)He(y) might add DirectX or X11 support for Windows/Mac Respectively. I wouldn't get focused on it though.

> Speaking of MMOs made in Flash; Neosaurs is 2D side scrolling MMO made by Microsoft in Flash. It's alright…

Until some 9 year old makes a youtube video on Flash Trainers… Though if they are effective on your mmo it's a fail.

Java is the future. games like aion, guild wars... hell even RS. Make the client on whatever you want, but Java also has many pro's to being the server-side.
