Suggestions
By Mickey on 15/07/2008
Ok, so I'm a Java fanatic as some of you know. Ever since I started RS I have been interested in how they made each square. Only recently have I started to learn Java and I can tell you, it's bloody confusing. I have already released one of my games and I am currently working on another. It is 2D and is an allround favourite. I'm making a pacman game.
It doesn't stop there. I have loads more game ideas knocking about in my head but I need your help. I am interested in making a big one, one that is 3D, is multiplayer and is an MMORPG. This will sound like Runescape but it can't be helped. I have played Runescape for just under 5 years and am used to certain things within an RPG.
I am left in a position though, I cannot decide what to call it. I have so many ideas but most of them don't sound like the ideal RPG. I also don't know wheather I should make it a modern RPG or a medieval one. Medieval is more appealing to me as a programer though.
So, your thoughs and suggestions are more than welcome. I am more than happy to pay you your fair share if I eventualy market the game so your investment of a simple suggestion or two will not go un rewarded.

Thanks, if you guys want some idea of how complicated Java, infact any programing language is, then I have some code for you. All it does is load an applet and print "Hello World!" on the applet. If you think Jagex have it easy, think again.
| CODE |
import java.applet.*; import java.awt.*; public class HelloWorld extends Applet { public void pain (Graphics g) { g.drawString("HelloWorld!", 50, 25); } } |
I wrote this earlier.
Like I said, that does so little. One map square on Runescape is about 4 times that ammount of code. And RS is made up of alot of squares

think of why they called it RuneScape.
Scape:
a view or picture of a scene —usually used in combination <cityscape>
Rune:
Rune: (Derived from an early Anglo-Saxon word "runa" meaning "secret" or "mystery.") It was originally a pictorial alphabet in Northern Italy, circa 500 BCE. Its use later spread across Europe. There are a number of different sets of runes, each derived from a specific alphabet, such as the Elder Futhrk, Saxon Futhork and Norse Younger Futhark. The word "rune" also refers to a small piece of material marked with a rune symbol. The latter are used in divination by many Wiccans, other Neopagans and New Agers. Their use is generally condemned by conservative Christians as a practice forbidden by the Bible.
Rune refers to the "The word "rune" also refers to a small piece of material marked with a rune symbol." above, and Scape refers to the vast amount of area you are able to traverse over. You will want your name to be something similar to how you perceve your game to be run.
Runes in RS are definately very important, is what im getting at.
I dunno though, think up what you want it to be =)

ownage
btw about the programming bit, that amount of code you mentioned for each square is simply so you can WALK. it doesn't include the ability to interact with anything at all, so the actual amount of program you need to make it work is nearly unfathomable.

To creat a shaded and renderd map square takes about 6 lines of code each.
I read about it
