Just a suggestion, if you could make character's gender independent of each other. Perhaps maybe when a player creates a character, the client would ask (Male/Female) it would be great. I don't have much knowledge on coding and how it might make things complicated though. that's a thing sirius white already did once. i don't know if you can read it but the pictures are what is most important. http://siriuswhite.de/blog/2008/11/charakterbasiertes-geschlecht/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would enable more details and opportunities when it comes to playing on custom maps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn... this would mean i will need someone to hire someone again to actually finish his work to make it usable for my project...

It's working pretty good so far, have walking characters, etc. However, before I release the source, I wanted to make some cleanups due to design mistakes that I made, since I was forced to develop faster-I will make an update in my topic soon.

I've got a new job more than a month ago and this caused the project to slow down quite a bit. I've spent a lot (and I mean a lot) time with investigating a good way to allow scriptable effects (since I'm too lazy to implement all of them myself) that can be created easily even by non-developers. I think this is one of the most crucial steps to make this project a success. Everything else (besides rendering itself) is just some easy stuff. Also, there was a major cleanup which allows everyone to customize almost everything they want easily. I've splitted the code base into two seperate projects, which consist of the rendering part (world, gui, ...) and the content creation (networking, data storage, ...). These can be used like frameworks or be completely replaced without breaking the other part. For example, someone could inherit the content creation and add advanced control that allows to interact with a modified rendering part which displays 3D characters that move around like inside a first person shooter. Both parts are combined inside a core library, which represents the controller. So yes, the project now uses the MVC pattern and everyone of you should know yourself what benefits this has. Here are two small screenies. But don't expect too many visual improvements, since I have worked more on the code instead of the rendering. And don't worry, I will still make sure to release the source code as soon as I have either no interest anymore or when the project is in a usable (for others to develop with) state. Thanks for everyone who is supporting this project! PS: I don't have a cool project name, any ideas? I thought of WeeRagnarokClient or WeeClient, but dunno. Or maybe rMinerva Client, because of Athene and Minerva, lol. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeeClient sounds nice since it matches your other great works liek the map cache and diff patcher. But I do like rMinerva just because of that relation lol.

This color, however, is not being applied to all four corners of a tile, but only to the bottom left vertex and all vertices that share the same coordinate. I'm trying to get this right in my own renderer, but it looks weird at the moment. If it's not too much of a bother, could you please share a picture of prt_maze01 or gl_church with only the vertex colors enabled? Also, one little detail: what did you mean by posterization levels 17.0 - 1.0? Just 16 levels, or something else? I tried to match the lightmap of your earlier screenshot of pay_dun01 and (I think) I got a similar result by doing pcolor = floor(255 * floor(15 * color / 255) / 15) with all steps being float operations (JavaScript, he he). This gives 16 levels (0-15), but the upper level contains only one intensity value. So I guess this was wrong? Could I just do rounding instead instead of flooring and get the correct values? Or should I use 16 instead and floor everything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the vertex colors are always only applied to the top surface? At least I get the same results for those maps while only setting the vertex colors for those. Also do you just use black if one of the adjacent tiles doesn't have a top surface? I though I had it all wrong because some maps like pay_dun00 look like someone smeared shit all over them, but I checked with the official client and it turns out it's the same there.

As I know only top surfaces have the vertex color applied, if the cell that I will use to get the surface color doesn't exist or don't has a top surface, i just use black color. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that being said do you plan on increasing the client limits for models like the max amount of polygons the client can render and such since ragnarok had pretty low limits since they never updated any of that. It would be nice to be able to use models with more vertical textures and polygons so i didn't have to nerf every model i make rsm wise.
