New Development Ideas

[wtvelocity]

I have a list a few few games that rank about halfway up the lists of what's hot on your site.
I'll try to list them in order of popularity of how many people I have heard would LIKE a private server of each game, and why.

1)Redstone:
It has an active community, even though it's graphics aren't the best, but its versatility is. There are almost limitless customization options for skills and stats of any character of each class. Sounds impossible, but they have done a great job on it's creation and balance! Then the fact of how many areas there are to train, and all the equips, it has the most character customization of any game up to date, if you ignore the lack of appearance custumization.

The reason there is a need for a private server for this game though, is because after it's official and successful launch by GamersFirst, they changed the the GMs on it, and every GM they have had since, including after it's transfer to the OGPlanet server, are practically lazy bordering on incompetent on fixing issues, including missing guilds.
That is not to say it's hard to manage, the original GM would fix problems in 5m that takes current ones over 3days.

Any help on creating a server repack for this would be *VERY* much appreciated by more people than you would understand.
The Current official server has probably 100+ players who abused bugs and used macros to reach level 300 while everyone else who was legit is stuck at 100 or so. Private servers for this would be GREAT to allow a fresh start for all the legit players, and to allow others to create ones just for their friends.

Add the fact that only about 70% of its contents is allowed to be accessed in the full version, and you got a hella potential.

Game 2) Dynasty Warriors Online
This game has a fairly active community as well, but it's main downfall is the lack of content unlocked here. The graphics are good, the gameplay is good, but considering the limited lists of quests you have at any time, it seems lacking after playing a while. This game implements the 3 waring factions (Wei, Wu, and Shu), and you can fight against the other faction's players (and when other players aren't joining, fills in the blanks with AI generals).

By succeeding in winning these battles, you gain Force Points (FP), which goes towards trying to take over the opposing factions' lands. Problem is, many months after it's released, the FP is stacked up sky high, but the server is yet to start/implement the land/siege battles.
This, this would be a great server repack for players on 2 aspects: 1)Unlock land siege battles to actually make the game as epic as it was designed. 2)Allow players to make their own servers to battle against friends, and make a private community of 3 factions, to war your friends.

3)Shin Megumi Tenei: Seems to need it a bit less than the others, and I have heard requests for this less. Nonetheless, it would probably be a fun repack, for players who prefer small community games, and don't want to choose a random channel and still run into another players at their training spot.

need files for a section

[wtvelocity]

That's what I'm asking for: I have no clue how to get the files. I'm new to making private servers, save for one WoW server I made a while back with a repack. Other than that, and knowing a little SQL, I know nothing about this scene yet, but am very much looking forward to looking.

Can someone please start by telling me how to obtain the server files for this, to make a repack?

Thanks much kindly! :)

A, catch a company slipping and take their files. They all do, but your chances of catching them within that time frame is slim, or make an emulator.

In your case. Just wait.

Unless I misunderstand what you're saying, there will be no repacks if I wait for someone to do so on their own, at least for RedStone. That game has been out for probably almost 5 years, possibly longer.
Even after the original server went under, there were no server repacks.

What do you mean exactly by "catch a company slipping", and how do I take the files?

Thanks :)
