Dawn of Light

Hey guys, my work week is going to be chaotic for awhile and so i have to take a yet another break from DOL , but i don't want the stuff i've made to go to waste, so i've decided to upload a couple of systems i've made for u all.

Code: Select all

[StephenxPimentel]
I'm releasing this package to the userbase of DOL in hopes that my work will be used
during my break.

BY USING THESE SCRIPTS I WOULD PLEASE LIKE IT IF ALL SIGNIFICANT CHANGES ARE RELEASED
TO THE PUBLIC. ESPECIALLY BUG FIXES AND PERFORMANCE FIXES.


Included in this package is:

1) VIP System
2) Voting Mapchange System
3) Universal Merchant
4) Lockout System
5) Customized Proc System
6) VIP Morph NPC
7) Free Daily Item NPC ( This will more than likely need database changes to work properly )
8) Custom GamePlayer class
9) Ability Adjust System
10) Database Tables to go with it all.


With that said, Enjoy these scripts, and if u have any questions feel free to drop me a PM and maybe
i can help you out!

Thank you Stephen ! I'm not sure i could find something suitable for the core, but your work is appreciated

the ability adjust might be ok for the core, but i'm sure theres better ways to do it...

i made that system because live seems to nerf abilities w/o changing DB values, and to me we should do nerfs/adjustments and leave values in the DB the same, as its not a visible nerf to all the players, and DB values remain in-tact to match what they say on live.

2) Voting Mapchange System



I feel DAoC is misused. My opinion.

Sadly with the state of the public database there are few options available for people.

a) Make an instant 50 server with limited maps and probably custom mobs.
b) Make a classic server (public DB is pretty classic as things stand, another reason why there are so many classic servers).
c) Spend months/years/lightyears creating a live-like server.

Seeing as most people want to run a server for a bit of quick fun, they go straight to A.. if people want some long term fun but they don't want to bother creating a lot of content they pick B..

If the public DB was as live like as possible, we would see far more live like freeshards for sure.

So I pick c) as this game deserves it. Even with a 100% live like DB you would see ppl to shortcut every feature in DAoC to make it a fastfood game.

"Map Changes" remember me of Counterstrike, Battlefield or Unreal Tournament tbh not a MMORPG with a persistent world.

@steven: I don't want to bring your work down. Please don't misunderstand me. Keep the motivation up to do more scripts. There are a lot who appreciate any input into the community.

I agree.. but some people are put off by other servers having a lot of work done already and just don't bother... not everyone has the time to learn how to code or even do this sadly

I'll stick to d.

Throw out most established mechanics and rewrite them.

May even make sense for some parts if you have a lot of time and way better concepts.

the problem with live-like servers, and this is my opinion of why people flock to instant 50 servers is....

Freeshards come and go so rapidly that people feel putting in any of their time building up a character is a waste for them, as majority of the time they will get to level 50, and the server will be gone.

As for putting the work in to actually MAKE a live-like server, for me, i would be disappointed that the shard will more than likely never have enough population to actually well... populate it.

i code for the fun of it, and the learning experience, but i still get disappointed if no one plays

Yep especially since the players who want their stuff to be there in a few months / few years are mostly playing Uthgard

[Update] Custom Proc System.
-Makes the procs save and persist after restarts.
