ProjectR

Hello Everyone!

I am sure some people are aware of ProjectR and How I have been working on for some time (Since Late 2003 I believe). It became more of a hobby for me but recently while I was playing with the server I had decided it was more ready to test then it had ever been.

ProjectR started as a Classic Server a few years ago, then I changed it into a Turn-Based RPG Server after Tribulation stopped (I was sorta respecting the project, plus I didnt know much about development then as I do now).

Anyways since we are still a UC server I have more control then a hosted or classic server right now.

The areas that will be open will be 2 zones with Area Levels of 1-11 and 20-30.

I am still working in some monsters and polishing up the code this is more or less to see if anyone wants to test it all out. I am expecting a test in about a week or two (Maybe less) as I finish polishing up some things. I will take between 5-10 people to help out this first time.

I dont expect it to be perfect, so im hoping the people I pick will really work at breaking the stuff (If its possible).

We wont have all of the classes open for testing this time around, but there will be a small manual telling you where you can go (Shops which are open, monster levels, maybe stats but i dunno that should be a secret

).

Probably will open a thread later for bug reports and such, otherwise just use this one (Dunno what the rules will say about two threads about the same thing so close togather).

There were some screenshots on the forums of our levels, but things have changed quite a bit since then. I would post screenshots, but I am not trying to get staff.

I Will post more soon!

I'm interested in seeing how turn based would work on graal. I'm game to try it out.

Me again!

I have done a few more things including finishing up the mini-guide, it really is just a mini-guide. Since I am only opening Two zones I think it will give enough Detail to people.

We will be previewing one of four classes to the people, they are as follows.

Paladin, Black Mage, Cleric, and Fighter.

Most of the classes are self explanitory if you have ever played any RPG, they are mostly basic ones, but each will have their own unique set of skills you can use in and outside of battle.

Still looking for a few more people interested in putting this all to the test, it wont work as well if only myself and Cid are on the overworld :P

That'd be terrific Tom. :o

The Levels that we have right now are done slowly so that they're done to perfection, and James' Scripting skills are unrivaled IMO.
In fact, James and I were talking last night about how bad we need Graphics help. xD

Sounds great. I hope you will be getting in contact with me after this test is over.

I was waiting for someone to ask for this but right now im going to just have to keep you in suspense. During the test I will be taking screenshots, as I am sure the testers will. I dont mind if they post the screenshots from the test because half the fun is showing what was going on while you were playing.

I am afraid everyone else will just have to wait for now, sorry

Aww man!

If it doesn't require having a Gold or VIP membership, I'd like to see it.

Unfortunatly right now it does, I would be really glad to try to make a video as well as screenshots during the test. Since the world is Under Construction. We are hoping with this to fix some of the last things hindering us from changing our Server status.

I can fix almost everything, but then when I think its fixed, someone else will use it and it might work weird. Thought this was a great opprotunity to use this philosophy to make sure everything is perfect.
