Title: (REQUEST) Multiplayer Script - NOT NETPLAY/ONLINE script!!
Post by: Demonic Blade on January 01, 2008, 02:04:47 PM
Okay. We all know it is 100% possible to make a netplay script. But it is just so frigging hard. So. A multiplayer script should be easier. Connected computers can play against each other. Think about one of the other ways to play Diablo II with others. By typing in a code, which is you, and by typing in someone else's code, you may play with them. But that would (probably) also be frigging hard to do. So I'm making it (nearly) as simple as it goes. For those with at least 2 computers in their homes, a script like this would be great. So...

Multiplayer Script
Don't know what this is supposed to be...


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Summary
Being able to choose Single Player, or Multiplayer at the title screen. If Multiplayer is chosen, then you are taken to a new menu, asking which computer to play with. If someone else is on the desired computer, and they choose "yes" to play, then both players are taken to a New Game or Load Game screen, specifically for the Multiplayer game. Then, they can choose to Load or start a new game (One player can choose New Game, and the other Load at the same time), and they start where they saved last, or where new players start. Then they can chat (Or maybe even/just talk through a microfone), and play together through a special game, different from the Single Player game.

Features Desired

Extra Menu
Multiplayer
Chat
Multiplayer has a game different from Single Player.
Team-Up ABS including:
Hotkeys
Enemies sometimes turning from one target to another (threat usually determining this, though if attacked by 3, an enemy might want to start fighting someone else than the original target)
Enemies that think, breathe, and live (realistic)
Enemies that can be looted so that you can choose what to pick up.

Add-Ons and other features:
Hunger
Thirst
Dash
Sneak
Health
Physiqe

Mockups
Check attached. They're made in paint, and done quick so please mind that... ::)
The second-last picture is a bit different. Because, while I'm requesting a script to play with others, I'm also requesting a script with an ABS for the multiplayer part. This is special because I am requesting hotkeys, a cursor with different looks to it. But the screen will show you about it too. A Chat channel, kinda like in WoW, and a cursor, so that you click in the menu rather than moving with the arrow keys. You still walk with the arrow keys instead of the mouse. Anyhow, if I wanted it differently, I'd just add the "Click-To-Move" script. Witch I won't.

Games its been in

Command & Conquer (r) games
Most games by Blizzard (r)
Others too, I'm sure, but I don't know them...

1) you can just copy the code for the template and fill it in
2) google sucks for RMXP scripting
3) you're pretty much asking for an online ABS right? have fun trying to make that in RMXP
4) sorry, can't help you

1) I know, but this is easier ::)
2) I know, but I found tons
3) No and no. Besides, I only finished RPG's scripting tut yesterday, and that only teaches you terms etc.
4) AS USUAL!!

Could it be that I used the danish google? Probably not, but the terms above *might* not be the ones I used (I usually don't write down what I search for). Besides, I posted this topic a couple of days after I searched.

1) I know, but this is easier

your logic confuses even me

4) AS USUAL!!

what, are you pissy at me for referring you to websites where you can get the scripts you need instead of special-ordering you one, when there's already something out there?
are you mad at me for not bowing to your will and completing request after request after request?

here's a thought, how about you go search RMXP websites
you'll find that NOONE has made this script and NOONE is even bothering
it's too complicated and NOONE has the time

As it stands, RPXP is a HORRIBLE engine to try and make a multiplayer game in.  It's specifically designed for single player adventures, and even Netplay is pretty bad imho.  if you want to make a multiplayer game, find an engine designed with that in mind.

All I see you doing here is requesting script after script, and getting pissy at me when I tell you "it's already been done, here is where you can find it" or simply saying "google sucks for RMXP scripts, go to a RPG Maker site and search there." it's COMMON SENSE!
What will give you better results? searching the whole internet? or searching a site SPECIFICALLY ABOUT what you are looking for?

Miner suggestion... try Game Maker. 

You can set up all that stuff, and it is easier to make ABS or any other type of game.

Give it a look.   :)

I know that, and I looked there, I do have GameMaker. But I'm not a millionaire. I have no money at all, which reminds me I was to get my pocket money 3 days ago, but still. I don't have enough money for all that, and anyways, I'd need Vista or Paypal or sth like that. And I don't know if I'm going to get a keygen. I have so much illegal stuff already. Limewire, PK echanched, a french (full) version of rmxp from Fileshare (I think...) even though I'm not french, but danish, and the full, yet old, version of rmxp (in english this time...)

Hehe, sry Namkcor, I'm not trying to be mad at you. I hope u don't think that. Anyways, sorry. But I'm not really looking for netplay, but what I think is called LAN. And yes, I know you're right. But no again, I DID find many scripts for it. But I'll quit the matter.

Anyways, I will search some sites SPECIFICALLY what I want. If I don't get this mad thought put of my mind.

Should I delete the topic?
