Eleyond Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 No. There is already a really good single player engine in the works. ARC - google it. Not sure about the cost, but I know it will be better than all previous rpg engines. At least that's what it is aiming for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinjiru Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Well yeah that's the problem I was trying to address, storytelling in MMOs SUCKS, but it doesn't have to. I mean if they would just put a little effort into telling a story with the quests instead of it being a guide on what enemies you should grind on. And people here are not creating unique, well thought out games with the engine they have. I don't think giving them another engine won't really change that. The engine is just framework, it's not a game. What makes a game a game is the effort you put into developing it. Those serious about developing a game will find the engine they need to develop the game they want. And RPG maker costs about $60, that's the same price a new xbox game costs, If you don't have $60 to put down to develop a game, why are you trying to develop a game in the first place?

Marsh Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I really wish i saw this topic earlier. If you want to create a single player Eclipse then all the power to you. You cannot be the official developer if you are going to work on a single player version. Not sure if that is even where you wanted to go with this. Just pointing it out.

Zetasis Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 > By the way when the combined votes of "Yes" and "I'd have to see it" reach 20 I'll start working on it.I think it just did. I would love to see a single player engine. I'm curious as to how it would all work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I too would love to be working with a single player version of Eclipse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kibbelz Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Hmm… What i think is there should be a single player 'option' whilst also an 'online' option. So players can play single player when either the servers down or they feel that they want to play through the game single player. It would mean having to send maps via the autoupdater though. Best of luck!~Kibbelz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 *shifty eyes*. It'll probably happen. But I have exams in January so it might have to be in like Feburary. Might be in LUA as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Socuine Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Go for it Sekaru, I'm pretty sure you can build something pretty awesome. I look forward to your attempt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exception Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I voted no, purely because I don't really have an interest in an engine in LUA, but, that doesn't mean to say that I would ignore it. If you want to, power to you, go ahead. ![:P](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/community/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.png) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeoWorks Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 > I think this is going backwards.I agree with this, If you want a single-player game similar to Eclipse I recommend you use the RMXP engine. Their are forums out there that have fighting scripts almost the same as Eclipses fighting combat. Here is an example video:[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHd4YCvJBPA[/media]And another:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwRTxK3M0qYI hope this helps. ![:)](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/community/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iscn Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Go for it Sekaru, because not every one likes RPG Maker first of all. I don't see how this is going backwards. This is a development site, and so I see this as a project that is going to increase it and also give the community something else to try. In the end we all will download it and try it out. Even if we post discouraging comments about it. PS to the RPG Maker fanatics, at least this engine is free, and you learn to code using it.

I'd like to make a simple base for people to learn with and just really make an RPG or any sort of game in it really. Plus the tools I'll be offering and some of the things I'd like to do with it might make it a little more worthwhile than RPG maker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkOne5890 Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I think it's a good idea if everyone has a option , because some people can't afford vps so this would be perfect just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrIce Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I think yes, not because it will make the games unique, the makers of the game stands for that not the engine, if you put hard work and time in a project, you have the oppertunity to make it unique even with a free engine that everyone uses.Single player will add more activity on the community, and more stuff other then the "online part" of the rpg game, people will start using the forums to actually do a decent game, instead of just making it go online.

PD Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 You're going to need a scripting system for this single player engine ![:P](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/community/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.png) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
