New Hope 2.0, RO 2.0, and Expansion

Okay, for people who don't know about the servers new flowing system, for the open beta (Levels will be reset after beta-MOST LIKELY, SUBJECT TO CHANGE) were trying low rates. (aprox 10/10/10)

I plan on capping us off at level 99. Complete with Rebirths and 3rd jobs. The 3rd jobs will however also be capped at 99. The stat cap being 500 so feel free to be a stat pure lol. I intend on later releasing my RO2.0 System (Items with rarety level's that will only be dropped by custom mobs and mvps. and usually have some kind of nice bonus ingame and roleplaying wise. This will also be adding a seperate stat system which will be how the roleplaying will start becoming more balanced instead of a regular whoever has the lucky role wins the fight.) These are planned on releasal with the expansion of New_Hope, New_Fild01, New_Fild02, New_Indoor, New_Grave, New_Dun01, New_Dun02, New_Dun03, and the level cap increase to 125, along with the introduction of quite a few custom mobs (A few will probably be old skins unfortunatly -.- I can't make new sprites as i suck at making like 120 images of one thing. Quite boring.)

The Beta will most likely last approx. 2 weeks, then the ball will get rolling on the ro2.0 project. and hopefully that will be ready when the story accomplishes getting that far.

Another thing is, for everyone whose seen New Hope already, it's getting a bit of a new look, some of the changes are
Waterlevel-Risen (The little Moat now actually has water.)
Cobblestone Pathways
Adjusted Lightmaps (Everything looks alot more 'full' in their shadows.)
Castle Interior added.
Fixed that little fall through the roof hole lol

Hopefully everyone likes it slightly more then the last newhope

Awesome. Happy to hear about new things being done. So when about should we expect open-beta?

I said Friday so i wana do friday, if not sometime over the weekend. Im thinking probably late friday night though if friday.

Darn. Tonight would rule for that. I have nothing to do for hours.

tomorrow, lol lets unveil with fireworks!

Wait till I get home. XD Naw, but when will you be unveiling it? And what timezone are you in? XD

I just thought about it, and i will probably be around 5PM eastern. Though im only going to be accepting registrations prior to 7 and theres no garenteed server uptime. I will be leaving approx. 7pm tomorrow and not returning until saturday so the release itself might be better to hold back a day. Im not quite sure.

I say hold it back a day, just because the server up time isn't guaranteed, we can wait till Saturday. Plus that means I'll hopefully be one of the first few on.

Alright. If anyone disagrees with this post, if even one person want's it early i can do it but if not then id rather hold back a day.

I'm sure noone will disagree as, the only members we have aren't even on, and will probably agree to hold it back a day for the sake of the game. But also, don't forget that one day, is twenty four hours :p

I'm really bored, also working on a new thread.

I wana hold it till i get my cp to work but it's not exactly a simple error to work around so i'm trying hard to fix it. I asked for help of EA and hoping they got it figured out soon. Right now im working on New_Fild01 as NewHope is done.

New Hope is done? Awesomeness. So, just curious, would you mind taking a speed test and showing me the results? XD

Unfortunately I don't have time. Im spending every minute i am here working to optimize some of the things in the beta. Right now i'm almost done with prep then im going to go back on working at control panel problems.

Unfortunately, while downloading the Ragray stuff, the server randomly (poor choice of words) shooped me. Just, all of a sudden the downloads failed, and my internet went BWAAA and then my computer crashed. Don't know how downloading such small files would do this, but that disappoints me. And I am pretty damn sure it was the downloading that did that because my computer is a fresh install AND it's the only thing on our network turned on. (Minus the TiVo's)

Huh... Idk my download along with Ilum Tarus's download went smoothly, if you can find another source for RO that is Ragray still you can use it just try your best to get one at 7-30 to keep out errors.

Well I am about to try their JDownloader method. If I can figure out how it works. XD

I couldn't grasp the concept of the jdl... Made noooo sense to me.

Im tryin hard to get the CP up prior to the beta, and theres a bit of a oddity with equips right now so im trying to make sure i get that working too, i may have to put it on hold an additional day but im working hard at fixing it right now. I got WAMP rolling so the cp should hopefully be done today, however the equip problem i've never even heard of. Hopefully it will be helped on EA soon.

You use WAMP as well? Awesome. As I usually love to tinker, I was doing stuff over a VPN with my server, and locked myself out of PHP MyAdmin by accident. I'm actually considering reinstalling on my server anyways, so it's all good. But I still wanna regain access. XD

Heh, were almost live with the CP i got WAMP completely up and running with PHP now. ^_^ Registration for the servers looking to be about a few hours from now and once that's completely up theres only one more issue to solve. If you have any idea what the hell this means, id gladly take any speculation on what to do: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5dJHRqZD40

Btw, for an overview of the new New Hope: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tvNna6gNuE&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL

Unfortunately, I have no clue as the the equip error, I'm stupid when it comes to anything EA related. XD
But the lightmaps are alot better than they were before on new hope.

Also, three things:
One: What kinda monitor do you have?
Two: What's the recording program you used?
Three: I'd ask if you wanted to chill on Minecraft sometime, but I'm too cheap to buy it. XD

Haha,
1)Multiple, Lol Premio... i believe 95? lol and an Intel Pentium laptop, not quite sure where id find specs for the monitor of it. Lol, i use both quite frequently though.
2)Some cheap free thing... Uhh Camstuido
3)Lol yea, i used to play it lots, not so much anymore, working on bigger and better things ehmmm InheritorRO?

As far as the last one? What's that? Sounds fancy! Ragray is finished installing, gonna run all the patcher stuff, so whenever you're ready to unveil the CP and the download files, I'm ready. Also, I sent you a GM application. I hope you like reading! :p

Replyed and im almost done with them. Unfortunately the one thing required to make the game never require a second download isnt coming with the beta so after beta period a new download will be required. No patcher >.<

It's ok, I'm not lazy. I'd rather have the ability to play it and help find bugs, enjoy the game, etc. Then have no beta testing get done outside of you. Cause I mean, that's what beta testing is right? Finding and fixing problems, occasionally running into problems?

Indeed. Lol flux cp just exploded >.<
