Just announcing my new projects.
If anyone else here is working on a project post it here so we can anticipate it ^^.
The first is a SRO server emulator written in C++. This will be a complete server, 100% customizeable via ini files and will be complete with software to modify ini files ( so you don't have to modify them manually, risking corruption ), and database viewing/modifying files. I may possibly be able to get a server to host a private SRO server ( epvpSRO ) for everyone here and their friends to play on.
The second is a 2D SRO client written in C++. This will be a 2D client with a simple overview projection of the playing field. It will function completely with the existing iSRO servers and with the emulator above ( however, when I make the private server, I will disable the use of this client on it, it's for us to play on and I'd like to have it fair and sans botters ). The client will come complete with a scripting language and a built-in bot. There will also be an extensive command line for people who don't like clicking and pressing 'a' to choose an action. It would work something to the effect of the following while you're in-game:
/tradebegin <username>
which will effectively begin a trade request with the requested player if he/she is within range.
/tradeput [-m] <slot#[amount of money#]> //put an item/amount of money into the trade agreement
/traderemove [-m] <slot#[amount of money#]> //remove an item/amount of money into the trade agreement
/party <username> //extend a party invitation to a player in range
/party //list options associated with a party ( exp distribute, share, etc.. auto-accept parties, auto-deny, prompt, etc )
This is just to name a very very small number of the commands. Remember you will be able to create scripts and your custom settings will be saved.
The bot included will be completely customizeable and able to perform many functions within the game including hunting, activating and completing/turning in quests, opening a stall ( good for running a non-cpu intensive client as a stall and playing the game on your main ), performing trade runs ( of course it won't be able to defend very well against player thieves.. so yeah ), and many more.
I'm starting these tomorrow ( the server first, client later ), and the source-code will be 100% open-source via sourceforge under a liscense. If you wish to partake in any portion of the design/implementation, please post here and let me know =).
