    I spent 20 on credits to buy patron, then started another account to play on kyrios with afterlife folk, and I think I payed the first bit with apex bought with gold, but then apex went through the roof so I think I bought another 20 dollars of credits. So I think I've spent 40 dollars.

    I'm only around 60k vocations and 400ish starry stars. Long way to go. Long way to go on the materials too.

    Western mmo makers pretty much all follow the "never trust the client" golden rule. You need to trust a bit on movement, and most games these days give the fake appearance of instant ability firing, even though it is fake and happening when the server gets the packet. But I can't imagine a...

    Sort of like how the russian version was a test for us. The russians developed a very wide suite of hacks and exploits which nobody bothered to fix. The chinese will be ready!

    Apparently during the lag people were putting multiple houses/farms in the same spot, or finding an area clear and placing a house or farm over stuff that was already there and hadn't loaded yet. I wonder if placing down a house is completely client side?

    Original cloth map from EQ

    I don't appear to have an EQ cloth map. Was that collector's only? Awhile back I took a bunch of pictures of all the mappish crap I have before stuffing it all away in boxes:

    Well that was a crappy ending. I wanted Lewis to win and all, but shame it was a failure. I can't believe there's talk of Button getting the boot from Mclaren. They are nuts if they get rid of him.

    This was on Ollo, I have a house on Kyrios too, but the guild kinda died out there. Ollo seems active, see lots of wagons rolling around. Maybe people are just tired of losing on land grabs.

    Tried to post this earlier and got a database error. Did you guys see the bit about the red comet car? The producer lady said they wanted to have it purchasable via starry stars. I wonder if they will do the same with the vocation badges version. The Timber is still rebalancing they...

    Yey! Well by the time they get the 4wd version back in the game I might have a good beginning on the parts. I've been trying to think of what they are doing with the cars. I think they said rebalancing. What I'd do is make the speeds inverse to the usefulness. Like the 4wd car is so much...

    I could make it into a solid shaft I guess, but if they nuked that it would be even more painful. I guess the trail is randombox->sploited for a rumbling sapling->thunderstruck tree->auction house->dumbass buys it (me) Then again I might have bought a perfectly legit tree that came from a...

    Well I didn't do any of this box opening stuff, but I might have bought a tree from someone that did. Dunno if they would do that or not. I slept for awhile and it is still there. Prices shot back up to 300 though for some reason. Still about the same amount for sale.

    Funny stuff going on with the random boxes. Thunderstrucks finally took a dive down to 210ish on Ollo, there were 6 pages of them in the auction house. I bought one and now I'm wondering if I will lose it.

    If one wants to set up a server

    There was something similar on the old site. In fact I think that is what spawned the game development board. Folks used a sort of mmo getting started kit type thing, can't remember the name of it, but it was python for the backend and Torque for the client. I was too busy with work at the...

    I love the cars! I think I want the 4 wheel drive version, but they took it out. I'm many months away from having one though. Even with the price drops the most I could buy would be two thunderstruck trees and it needs 8, and 80 natural rubber. I've planted several hundred rubber trees and...

    I've been trying to figure out what the bottom end of the struck tree prices will be, but they fluctuate in ways I can't predict. Kyrios prices are usually 30ish gold cheaper than Ollo for some reason. I kind of want a car, but I'm still not sure about the limitations. The scroll says "Can...

    I had the crash right after the hackshield splash early when the patch first went up. I tried a few random things and eventually got by it. Stayed in game for several hours, eventually just idling in my house. Decided to switch to my other account and it started happening again. The...

    I started a character on Kyrios because I found out my guildies are there. The first thing I noticed was that all the foraging spawn points are the same. The next thing I noticed is that there were a lot of trees in places I'd never seen before. Ollo seems to have much less wild trees. The...

    Mostly this is a solved problem. The only tricky bits are physics and gunplay / twitchy dodgy movement stuff. The only thing a client should be trusted on is movement, and then periodic checks should be done to make sure they didn't move too far. For abilities, often games will fire them...

    After I started on the whole farming, blue salt stuff, I got the impression that lots of ocean crossing was needed to make stuff. But since then I've figured out how trading works and got some more land and whatnot, and yea there's zero incentive for me to ever risk a contested area. I did...

    Well on Ollo this weekend, I finally got lucky on the land clickfests. I did my usual big scan of all the peacetime properties and threw them all in a website on wed/thursday, and noticed friday afternoon there were I think about 4 16x16's all expiring within a few minutes of each other. There...

    I really liked the human quests (the ones that worship red bull chief aerodynamicist Adrian Newey). But I tried the other side and didn't like it. I'm actually still doing some of the crafty quests (curse you fiery chili peppers!). I wonder if the blue salt brotherhood is some sort of...

    Dunno, I only have a small garden and all that stuff needs a farmer's workshop. I thought I'd be smart and make the workshop on an alt (it consumes the garden plans) but it wouldn't let me place it. Ok no problem I'll just sell the small farm to my alt... oh wait I can't. Well in that case...

    I went to 14 land grabs this weekend and had no luck. A fellow with the wonderful name of poodoo got the lions share of them (if he was there he got it), always logging out immediately after. The poor cs folk coming in to work on monday will probably have 1000 reports on the guy.
