jcsnider Posted June 10, 2009 Author Share Posted June 10, 2009 Ok, I decided making a game was too much for me to do right now, and I want to do more programming and sad scripting to get better at it, so I am working on a source edit which anyone can use, right now it is titled Eclipse Revolution, for now it is a temp name, but I may keep it… It fits well with Evolution and sounds okay... if you have any better ideas please PM or post here.Anyways!This engine is going to 1st be made by me, and most likely only me.It will come with fully custom GUI - Made by me with GIMP - So, it may not be to good.Screenshot -I have been looking at some of the request these past few days and getting ideas. Some of the features this will have -* Password Encryption - Encrypts password while in Client, then sends to server, this allows safer data transfer, the server also keeps it encrypted while in .ini file, I will add a button in the server called password viewer or something.* Click to walk - I will not create this, I will use one I have fount on forums.* Bigger Game Screen - 800 by 608 pixels. Fount edit on forum.* Later - Add alot of skills such as mining/fishing/wood cutting/more, and a menu in the game where you can check levels and such.* Maybe Fullscreen* NPC talking system - Advanced - Will require scripting for choices and such, but easy to do.* Add more laterRelease Number 1.0> Ok, here is first beta release… 1.0> > Features....> > -- Admin> --- When you 1st start the server, it ask you for an admin name and password. The server then keeps this data. The option I have added in the server, such as disabling and re-enabling the password encryption requires this username and password. This makes it alot safer for people to host your game.> > --Npc Chat> --- When you click on a friendly npc, what you set as "Say" they will say in a text box.

Drummerpete Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 You want to practice sad script.. so you're editing the source..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcsnider Posted June 10, 2009 Author Share Posted June 10, 2009 Blizz is being payed to do a different project at the moment, so Neon is on hold, so I came here for awhile… and got inspired to do this. I estimate I will be able to get about half way through when Blizz can start on Neon again, so I will then slow down on this and work on Neon more... but I will finish this as a side project...@Bob Smith - Well, vb6 in general, I will do some of both...

jcsnider Posted June 11, 2009 Author Share Posted June 11, 2009 UpdateI have the full GUI done, but it maybe temporary if I change name.Started on Password encryption, you can change it in the data.ini…Also, I am adding a new tab to the Server. It will add control buttons to the new tab. The only one now allows you to enable/disable the encryption. When you enable/disable it, all the accounts made after that point will follow whatever you choose. Accounts made before that will continue to work although your password is encrypted or not. Or, it will give you the option to convert all accounts that are already encrypted or not to not encrypted or not... kinda confusing.Also, no matter what you choose for it to be saved as, when it transfers from client to server, it is encrypted. Just in case.I am almost done with all of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
