everything sounds cool to me bro! will be an awsome board. its about time someone really works on a board like you have. you will have TONS of people playin there. oh i am too lazy to go back threw the posts again but will you be allowing dupes? i think they suck personally but just curious.

Nope, no dupes. And yes dupes do suck. Dupes are without a doubt the purest expression of talentless ass clownism. Ie megababy. Tons of people would be neato.

so you are going to have legit exp?

are there going to be .dats for mmexp w/ maps for all the edits and new item stats>?

so you are going to have legit exp?

No infact I'm dividing all monster exp By 10, and dividing exp charts By 10.



The original propose of this was to expand the game beyond level 75 without exp rollover. But there are other advantages to doing this.



The biggest advantage, other than preventing exp rollover, is quicker high level advancement. Let me give you an examples of how this works.





LVL 100% Chart 10%Chart

2 ..... 1,000 .............. 100

3 ..... 2,000 .............. 200

10 .... 81,123 ............ 8093

20 .... 2,473,913 ........ 246,787

30 .... 16,505,764 ...... 1,646,530

40 .... 66,774,800 ...... 6,661,124

50 .... 270,140,500 ...... 26,947,952

60 .... 820,739,800 ....... 81,872,700

70 .... 2,021,753,400 ..... 176,756,700

80 .... 5,472,365,900 ..... 381,603,600

90 .... 15,115,016,900 .... 852,873,700

100 ... 41,907,129,400 ... 2,028,473,900





In this example at lower level, which generally progress fairly rapidly, The exp value between a 10% and a 100% chart maintains a 1/10 ratio. But as the level approaches level 100, the ratio surpasses 1/20..ie about 4.8% of the original 100% chart. Since monsters will only be divided by 10, progress will be faster, even if I add no content for higher level players.

No. I wiill provide an explorer export which will include: Race/Class/Spell/Weapon/Armour/Monster. I'm choosing to leave maps out of the database to encourage exploration. New scripting areas, new bosses and new items have been added to the realm. Finding these bosses will be just as much of a reward as killing them, since not everyone will know where they are. As if you're the only one that knows where a boss is then you get to hit that boss every time it rgens. First kill of a boss get 100% drops on items so searching for bosses and NPCs will be a reward for ATK play. Exploration will be key for all levels of play, even low levels.



To give you an idea of how much stuff I've added last night for example I added: 29 bosses aimed for level 1-20 game play. 11 bosses aimed for min level play. 6 mini areas. 3 for low level scripting 3 for min level script.



For high level players the module I've added has about 40,000 rooms. 45 bosses, 3 towns, dozens of scripting areas.



The very first area i worked on is rather large, its like 3000 rooms and as of right now just leads off into a dead end..ie I havent developed the area very well. For the momment Im just gonna leave it as a big area and use it for development of the 7th quest.

ok....so exp is halfed along with the charts right? well if now or maybe if so why make so many things for low lvls like 1-20 like you stated when you will jump in lvls very fast? and then if they drop items they will not be worth anything once people get higher lvls. i am just lost here maybe i miss read this but just seems alot of work for low lvls when your maken the low lvls go by fast. please clarify for me bro. it will still be awsome though ;)

duh n/m just re read it you stated that u divided monster exp by 10 and charts by 10. :)

In a legit realm the amount of time it takes a player to get to level 20 varies quite a bit from player to player. Many players can get to level 20 in 1 days time, while other players can take upwords of a week. Either way, with the /10 chart and /10 mon exp it should take roughly the same time. It could be a little faster since now there are bosses and stuff to hit, as well as some groovy low level items.

This bbs may intrigue me to play this stupid game again, but I will not have the time, nor the overall care to play live like most of the others. So I guess I will just wait for the busy bees to find the bosses, acquire the items, and then I'll beat them up for their lunch money. I like the philosophy of putting the least amount of effort into getting a huge payout (ie: the lottery). But unlike the lottery, the odds are stacked in MY favor, bitches.

naah Lyki he's gonna put the cave bear at the waterfall and you'll be too distraught to play ;)
