mmorpg

#1

Hi,

I don’t really know where to put this…

Anyway…

I started a huge project (i mean real huge) with a team. We’re making a real-time mmorpg (masive multiplayer online role playing game) in the game making programm called GameMaker.

We don’t know a name yet…

You can choose between elves, humans, orc or undead…
The humans and elves are an alliance (same island) and so are the undead and orcs.

each has his own land where you can travel and fight creatures…

A friend of mine is drawing a map for the game…

There is a huge citadel on top, i mean real huge filled with half-dragons (there neutral, so they don’t attack).There the 2 alliance can’t attack in town. But there is a large arena where you can battle with the opposite alliance.

And then there will be 2 other city’s, one with dwarves (they are an NPC race) and the other one with another NPC race (i don’t know which race, but i take suggestions). The 2 races battle eachother too, you can do quests for one of the races.

And in the island itself there are very strong creatures and stuff, some outposts of the 2 NPC races and dungeons and what not.

story:

We don’t have a story yet… I’ll make one when the races and classes are for sure…

Character races and classes:

Human:

  • Cleric
  • Fighter
  • Rogue
  • Mage
  • Paladin

Elves:

  • Ranger
  • Druid
  • Fighter
  • Cleric
  • Mage

Undead:

  • Cleric
  • Fighter
  • Warlock
  • Rogue
  • Beserker

Orc:

  • Shaman
  • Fighter
  • Warlock
  • Hunter
  • Beserker

I’ll think I change the races and some of the classes though…

But, we don’t have anyone who can do the graphics for the game, so that’s why i came here… We need someone who can make great sprites and tilesets…:slight_smile:

Im very sorry for the bumping, but we need a gfx artist real fast… just pm me, or add me to msn (lellebasch@hotmail.com) please?

#3

sounds like WoW…

any site or forum or work to show? we all have big ideas. but do you have a big team? big budget? big amounts of time?

#4

Like i said, I’ll change the races, and a friend of mine and me are making a better map… So it will be much more original… It won’t look like WoW :slight_smile:

Anyway I have a forum… (only with 1 forum with a ‘what to do’ list for the team members) and no, I don’t have any money, We’re planning to make this game for free… (It will work though, 'cause we have gamemaker :)) But we only need a gfx artist, so i thought I hope in here and ask :smiley:

Gamemaker won’t do the network coding for you, not the database backend you’d need, nor the server-side stuff.

My adivce: learn C++. Want encouragement? Go here:

Nevrax are the people making the MMORPG “Saga of Ryzom” and this is the engine behind it. They GPL’ed their engine.

Not to worry, there are a few mmorpgs made with it, and we already have a free mysql based server (the same as 'small worlds online, It’s another mmorpg made with GM, and It works :)).

I’m really sorry for the bumping…
