It is easy2do, just add new texture to engine (example Tex_Cursor) then load it and render it on GlobalX and GlobalY coordinates. That´s all

Thx for explaining it  It is easy to replace cursor texture, or move it to more to corner.

> If I were to replace the .png for the cursor with an animated .gif, I'm assuming that the system won't recognise it?

No, it won´t.

So does this have a day/night system? Because when I was fiddling around I noticed some options that would suggest there is.

To add onto that is there also a lighting system, or is it not that complicated?

[WiseRock]

What I mean is how would you add some of these because of the system and its special DX8 engine

yeah but the defaut cursor still show

I really like this engine! But why i can use weapons that need ammo without ammo when i am near the enemy?

[lel]

I'd really like to see 8 Directional with the projectiles in use for that as well. That would make for some pretty endless possibilities.

[Bloo]

It's great to see that you are back! Can't wait to get started on using this engine!

[tslusny]

> I really like this engine! But why i can use weapons that need ammo without ammo when i am near the enemy?

Yea, i know about this. Thats becouse when you are near enemy, it is counting it as normal attack.

> I'd really like to see 8 Directional with the projectiles in use for that as well. That would make for some pretty endless possibilities.

If i will get some free time then maybe…

[marwell]

Hello, I'm Brazilian.

I would like to ask a question, I really like this engine and I wonder what the known bugs that engine. I need to know the errors known to be able to start my project.

And I would also like to know if there will be a new version and if the answer is yes, when it will be launched.

Thank you!

can you please try to fix this?

[Justin Knight]

This seems really nice but I cant quite get it to work without the runtime libraries. The link appears to be dead. :/

[WiseRock]

Hey Deathbeam great system could you implant some of your features from PR to ER? like

A Character Creation.

Day and Night System like It goes with if its 2:00 PM its day time and if its 9:00 PM its Night Time

The Chat-box disappears when you hit enter but the text stays and the txtSend box stays.

The Woodcutting and those kind of skills

The Recent News from EA when you login

Things that I would recommand: That you could code your self

Auction House system. Like a better version where you can go talk to a NPC and the Auction House will pop up all Rendered up a looking cool

In your event system could you do like an option where you can show the Sprite of the Event of the Face of the sprite of the event

After some of these features this engine will maybe become THE BEST engine in Eclipse.

P.S I know that you don't use tutorials so you would like to code these by your self that is fine

You are a genius!!! Great Up ! And good job!

[damian666]

hmm, perhaps its me, but it errors on loading screen, rte 9, unrecoverable dx8 error

highlighting>

```

Set gTexture(TextureNum).Texture = Direct3DX8.CreateTextureFromFileInMemoryEx(D3DDevice8, _

ImageData(0), _

UBound(ImageData) + 1, _

newWidth, _

newHeight, _

D3DX_DEFAULT, 0, D3DFMT_UNKNOWN, D3DPOOL_MANAGED, D3DX_FILTER_POINT, D3DX_FILTER_NONE, ByVal (0), ByVal 0, ByVal 0)

```

nvm, i got it, the picture was the fault, i re-saved it in paint.net and it works
