hey guys. ive looked elsewhere and most seem to think its impossible to create an online game with rmxp.
ive decided to make an MORPG that will be somewhat simlar to WoW in the sense of PVP, and multiplayer dungeons. the races will also be similar but ill be using some other races as night elf and blood elf kind of belong to WoW now.
Ive began the planning on paper, like naming the areas, leaders, written brief descriptions of each race (so far i have 6, 3 for each faction)
as i said i need a team. Im going to need mappers, spriters, composers and scripters. will probably need help eventing somewhere along the way as well as a graphic designer to do the logo.
Creation of the game will start when my PC is repaired coz it went wierd a couple of weeks ago.
If anyones interested or wants to know more just lemme know :)
life is what we make it.
if it sucks its coz we suck

Do you have anything started at all? Its best to get as much as you can done on your own before asking for help. Also be sure you're ready, creating a good RPG game is hard enough. Making a playable, balanced oRPG or MMoRPG is a whole different story.

Good luck! :D

thanks :)
ive played enough RPGs to know what makes a good game and what breaks them. ive also got one of my mates to do a lil bit of research of what others want aswell so if youve got any suggestions id be happy to help. at the moment ive got quite a bit down on paper as i said im just waiting for my PC to be repaired before i start. progress should start quite quickly when i get it back though :)

What I would suggest if this is a serious project, would be starting your design document. If you don't have a lot done, it may seem small at first, but it'll grow over time. It helps a lot to organize ideas, put events in chronological order and tying history together. If you ask me, really, it makes the whole design process go a lot smoother. If youre not familiar with what a design document is, check this link out.

ive done what i think is quite alot but in terms of project completion it probably isnt alot at all. ive got friends helping me with ideas and planning.
cheers for the guidelines too. will definitely be using them :)

See if you can even get a server up, RMX-OS is a pain to deal with if you don't know what your doing. Which I don't...if you can get it up, I'd love to help with iconning or mapping or something.
