Can anyone post a server & client release thats supports Atlantis
and its maps and dungeons that's in English? The only one I have seen is one called Stylus its all in a spanish language and still needs a lot of work. The best one out there is RealmPT (Sandurr) I can only hope to see something like that here....LOL
Yes. I believe Sandurr can release that, as it is his modification. :wink:
Atlantis (if I'm not mistaken) is the Ricarten map from Pre-AOR (before the introduction of the second tribe, the Morians) PT clients. It has been modified to reside in a different world space location, and the client has to have it added as a new map.
Despite all this... it is still just the Pre-AOR Ric, and you can treat it like any other new map you introduce to the game.
The implementation of "Atlantis" I have seen working did not have *any* dungeons... and certainly Pre-AOR doesn't have any in Ric.... however it is possible to turn any point, on any map into a Cave door / warp point similar to the one that leads out of Pilai into Land of Dusk. This is how the Bee Cave and Dungeon are implemented, and how each of the lower levels of the various dungeons happen.
These warp points are not part of the map, (as they are in some games) or anything to do with the server... which many games servers would enforce a co-ordinate shift when a players movement vector crosses a given boundary. They are entirely part of the client executable.
In terms of "Atlantis", an official Triglow (and pre-Yedang) map, which was never officially called "Atlantis", but was the old architecture of Ricarten, and never intended to co-exist with the current Ricarten layout... this is a considerable "hack".
While it is also a popular "hack", I am lead to believe that it has been implemented in many different ways, by different private PT servers.
I am told that it was first implemented in a Sandurr client for "Renaissance PT" (the original rPT) and probably out of a love for the good old days of Pre "Age of Renaissance" Priston Tale, which may have had something to do with the naming of that server.
There is very little from Sandurrs official servers which is ever released for other developers to use. And those releases that make such claims show strong indication that they are either a re-implementation, using a different method, or some beta that Sandurr was working on... something like the "dry run" before the final implementation was created.
Many of the fixes required for the "released" beta of Stylus are documented here on RaGEZONE. FYI: Stylus PT is in Portuguese, (Brazilian) not Spanish. (or Mexican :lol:) and was translated from Korean, to English to Brazilian. Are you incapable of translating it back to English :?: (If so, then implementing "Atlantis" is beyond you, and asking for a pre-made is also quite unfair... as supporting so heavily modified a system is beyond reasonable to expect from anyone.)
I will try to find a suitable copy of Pre-AOR Ric, that you can attempt this modification.
Thanks for the info. As far as Stylus is concerned I can probrably convert it back to englisg however i need to overcome a small handicap being legaly blind... thats why i was asking about a pre-made one. I have to read and re-read evrything that you post I find the info very informative.
the atlantis I know has dungeons and other maps to play on that require the player to qualify for. In Battle Town you can tel into FS1 then make your way to FS2 (Forbiden Sanctuary) they are clones of Cursed Temple.
Now to start work...
Someone "legally blind" who bothers to read my posts is not work shy. :wink:
I am confident that you will succeed and will probably learn more than those less encumbered.
I am "legally" dyslexic, especially where numbers are concerned, and I fell in love with the Personal / Home computer because they where so good at all the things I was bad at as a child. I presume you make heavy use of Speech Synthesis and can understand this point of view.
I also suspect that this is why, when I go to the effort of learning how things work, I really do understand them in depth by the time I'm done. I can't "skim", and often have to re-read in order to actually get any meaning from a sentence. I am also very good with algebra, and appalling at arithmetic.
I commend your efforts.Quote:
