Atlantica Online Private Server Development

A lot of things have been done, but a lot more has to be done, and can't be done by 1 or 2 persons alone, which means we need to hire some external coders (especially reverse egineers) to help us to get the main game server with an actual state running.

Sorry, never played diabolo so i have no idea what you mean.

So when will you launch your server? i'm waiting for this :)

Check the development page. The actual "timeframe" is listed there.

Map Server .... (~ 50 % done...)
PvE (Skirmish) Battle Logic Server ....
TBS Management Server ....
NPC Management Server .... (~ 30 % done...)
GM Server ....
Spelltower Management Server ....
League Management Server ....

These are "things to be done" so there'll be a clean working server.

You forgot to add:

Fake video (~ 100 % done...)


As clever as neuro may be this video is faked - its not even a good fake, watch the video with an open mind and look for the fails :P

also some other tips

Map Server - this does not have/require its own sever
PvE Battle Logic Server - this does not have/require its own sever
TBS Management Server - this does not have/require its own sever
NPC Management Server - this does not have/require its own sever
League Management Server - this does not have/require its own sever

all the above are scripted in the games engine and do not require 'it's own server'

As i already said not trying to pull a negative swing on things but I'm being Real.

If you're so intelligent kevy21, then please open YOUR server.

There are more than one way to split all the tasks of a game server.

One is choosing to put all in one "game enginge", i decided to seperate several tasks.

I'm explaining how AO actually works not just a 'game engine' nice pull with the 'if you're so intelligent' when you think rewriting/reverse engineering a whole game is easier than writing a missing DB :/

Nice dodge on the fake video tho.

I have my opinion and sharing it only to protect people interests and money surely you understand this?

Question: Could you stream your server/project on twitch.tv or the similar to show some of the progress on this server so people wanting to donate $100+ can see live how far the development is, this would help the progress of the project. List it as for 'Educational purpose's' of course.

What would it help to just "rewrite" a missing DB?

The server is "old".... would be nice to see how "mr mega genius kevy21" would be able to add there all the actual content of IntAO...

For the ppl that have alreads "funded" the project they know what i'm doing and they've seen some things that are not public.

And + mounts are not my inventions... ndoors europe started with that: [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

Firstly, smart-ass Im the reason why your even trying to make a server and yes i added content from IAO to OGRealms from new mercs to new mounts ect, just because im no DB writing master dont mean shit lol

And again dodge the fact your video is fake and you point blank refuse to show anything from your project other than what you doctor/edit first - which you have no reason not to show.

People have been burned before by AO Pservers and I'm creating critique about your project to get people answers so people can believe/trust you - I wouldn't be as bothered if i didn't get so many PM's about it.

Edit: For the people asking

Even 'IF' this is real, I'm sorry i wont be playing AO no more. I have as stated moved on to other things but im glad people still have dreams for a 'perfect AO' it is truly a one off game.

DO TELL ME WHEN ITS FINISHED, ive been w8ing for this for sooooo long.

a) Fundraising until 30th of september 2013

b) Starting closed Beta on 15th of november 2013

c) Public launch of the PServer 1st of december 2013

After the launch of the server we will also provide an Item Mall like the official servers, but with cheaper prices.

I'm a total noob (read as idiot) when it comes to a lot of technical stuff with computers but I do like playing AO and your efforts are much appreciated! Heck I'd get 3 jobs to help you since the only thing I could really do to contribute is play as a cash cow lol :D I do want to know if adding original content / gameplay elements (our own custom TBS Dungeon for instance) into the Private server help prevent nexon from being a bitch? another thing, would using different servers for PVE / Map / etc. require a higher bandwidth to run well?

In case you & your staff accept requests / suggestions for Ideas (*read as wish list) that may improve the private server here are some things I have in mind!

1) Item World Style Upgrading- (*see Disgaia wiki [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] for details) Custom TBS / Regular battle Dungeon Map. That players must beat in order to "safely upgrade" gears from +7 to +10 and add special proc skill to item.

2) Item Sorter- self explanatory

3) Give Growth Vials a 15% chance to let you choose where you want to put your stat point every time you use it. (feel free to adjust rate as you see fit just picked 15% to be fair I guess :D )

4) Set a max item pricing cap to 10b (to keep the in game economy from being as messed up as the economy in IAO / USA AO)

5) Allow the usage of Space Button when making character name (ex. Abe Lincoln for axe main)

6) Make all scrolls craftable!

7) Make the Simplify char specific to either player only / monster only / or both

8) Give Decos / Mounts / Clothing have a set a mount of points that players may adjust upon unsealing. For example Wing A has 100 points to be distributed upon unsealing player has the option to make that Wing give 30 to Dex / 40 to Int / 30 to vit at their discretion.

9) Give Decos / Mounts / Clothing slots where proc skills may be equipped and raised according player preferences using in game currency though a custom NPC. Proc skills may be obtained via crafting / questing / IM / rare monster drop.

P.S. For the custom Item upgrading Dungeon Make the Boss Look like / BE VULCANUS. So that all the players who got fucked by his shitty upgrading can finally vent all the frustrations / bitterness / regret that had accumulated through the years via all the pulverized plus 9s lol

Thanks for you suggestions and comments on the server development.

For the moment we just want to get it running like the "original" one with some "small" changes like Mount/Deco enchant/enhance.

More changes will also need more changes on the client which has to be evaluated before, to see what we can add/change, since we don't have source code of the client.
