Restarted my project. converting MuOnline into a single player RPG
Started from scratch, changed engine to UE4.
Mu: The Continent of Legend
Will have most features of MU
- My Own Variant of Castle Siege and every other event.
- Mining, Gathering, Alchemy, Armor Smith, Weapon Smith
- Upgraded Graphics and rendering; powered by Unity3D
- New Skills
+ more!
Constantly working on this game. updates will be every 3 monthly, i want to show more per update.
lol awsome...individual mu online developers>webzen developers?
Uhm... wow!
looks great
MU2 engine will be Unreal too...
MU2 - GStar 2011 Trailer - PC - YouTube
awesome) but textures can be a little bit better)
I guess I'll replace all the textures eventually. Probably all of the models too. I'm using the original mu assets to make dev a whole lot faster.. It's the gameplay that counts.

If you're planning to make it run on current GameServers, I can help you with the sockets and MU Protocol part, just let me know.
Awesome work you're doing here, good luck! ;D
Awesome work man, appreciate it!
I would donate and help test this project. Maybe in a month or 2, when everyone can make sure that this is serious business :thumbup1:
thread has a minor update, any help would be appreciated.

i need help with the mesh and skeleton so i can import the smd animation and it will attach to the mesh.
my current way of importing to 3Ds MAX 2012
decrypt player.bmd for animations.
decrpyt player gloves/boots/pants/helm/body (but each mesh has its own skeleton which is different to the rest.)
import each player mesh without bones
attach entire mesh together
import animation/attach bones to mesh
fail at fixing weights and vertices so the mesh moves with the animation.
(Need help here) any advice, linkage to a good tutorial or already complete work will be greatly appreciated and overall speed up the dev process. once i get all the animations working with one character i will start to code the base system
including
combat
inventory
shops
quests
scaleform UI
interactive main menu
isometric camera
interchangeable player parts
Events
chat
and i will update the Mu online models with HD textures
also the attack animations will eventually be changed as well
Hi this Mu Online to UDK project of yours looks promising, please keep it up! I could share you some tips on processing bones and animations as I had also been trying out Mu online in Unity 3d.Quote:

Tools I used:
1. Pentium Tools
2. Milkshape 3D
3. 3ds max 2009 (haven't on tried 2010+)
4. 3ds Max SMD import/export plugin
What I did (almost same as your steps, but I'll add extras):
- decrypt player.bmd for animations.
- using Pentium Tools- decrpyt player gloves/boots/pants/helm/body (but each mesh has its own skeleton which is different to the rest.)
- as .smd, also using Pentium Tools- import each player mesh without bones
- I've assembled a complete .smd mesh (for example, complete a soul master mesh) using Milkshape 3d and the exported .smd's without bones (as "Reference") using Pentium Tools.- attach entire mesh together
- using Milkshape 3d (same as previous step)- import animation/attach bones to mesh
- I've imported the animations also as .smd, using Milkshape 3D, attaching them to the Mesh. I saved this as .smd, this time as "Sequence"
*End product: I had 2 sets of .smd's from Milkshape3D, a .smd mesh containing the complete player Mesh (without the bones/animations) and another .smd which is pure player bones/animation.
*Importing to 3ds max: using the 3ds max smd import plugin, I first imported the pure player mesh. Then I imported the animation .smd over the mesh.
Here's the result of what happened in my experiments (haven't progressed yet since 2011 due to lack of time):
Wizard's Quest
Here's another guy who had been tempering with mu online models perhaps you could also ask him for some tips:
Mu Online Live
I'm glad that there are also other people like me who are interested in developing Mu online to other platforms :D I wish you well for your project. I hope we could also share tips on coding, development and most of all, models/assets.
Cheers to us!
Holy shit man, your project is very impressive, I remember seeing videos of it on youtube. I hope you continue to develop this. If there's anything I could do to help, like sounds, textures, stuff like that, let me know.
Thanks for your advice Tarrent. However i figured it out on my own before i read your post. just a little bit of what ive accomplished so far.
Characters; all animations work(200+). Replaced Pawn.
Lorencia started; Walls up (HD Textured) 2048x2048 textures are now going to be used. all original.
(image attached; +SpecularMaps/-SpecularMaps)
Heightmap imported; editing and layering, painting textures as soon as i make the textures in PS:CS5.
MainMenu created; Nothing yet.
Lighting; Basic.
Camera; Isometric, needs tweaking.
Started Click movement coding. (may take awhile)
i will post more information when i complete more tasks.
The lack of a big update here is because of the character rigging and animation importing problem.
Thanks for your support :)
Jiro
you do an awsome job Jiro...i hope you will not give up.
Jiro, thanks for your update. Mu online looks nice to play on HD textures I hope you could push on with your project. I'll be glad to help in any way I can about basic modelling and textures (except for the financial part :D).
@KingLordMaster and all: let's support Jiro on this! ^_^ This will definitely be somtehing to look forward to.
Thanks Tarrent. Photos :-)
btw Jiro, if you are making a "new game", you will need to make all protocol part too. Btw nice pictures
why don`t you make a new game? in my opinion wold be beter than creating a clone of muonline...
UPDATE:
The Game will NOT be point and click, or isometric. it will be a fully 3D non-target RPG with networking capabilities. hopefully in the long run a server system will be developed and be massively multiplayer.
UDK huh?
Well i've been playing with renderers for some time, and i gotta say you could do something awesome there, but, there are some problems, one of them can be copyright another could be far worse and it is the fact that you spent an amount of time on something that's not so intuitive and satisfactory as you hoped. Yeah Mu Online is a cheep game, not too much content, but if webzen developers didn't care to evolve it as it should of happen, why would you?
So as a person who cares I'm saying "Be Original", don't lose your time with something as insignificante as this game, all you need is a story and the ideal unfolds in your mind.
Take as example what webzen did -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mu_(lost_continent)
^^
PS: Do you have a UDK Licence? for general public i mean..
there's no point worrying about copyright if im releasing the game on this forum. it's all about learning i will be satisfied if i complete this project, its about making the game better adding my own content and changing what i want, while the original assets make the dev process alot faster.
UPDATE:
I've started on two separate projects. currently im working on a version of Mu that resembles Tera. the monsters have been upsized. although the world is fairly small so im thinking of skrinking the playable characters to emphasize a 'huge' game world. and the the second project is an original 2.5D MMORPG using my altered version of Eclipse Origins. i may develop the title to be Mobile phone compatible.
We also are working on game, but will titled as a new game.
We used character controls and better cam system than original.
And networking with unity is much better...
But still under closed beta testing...
Super. But no one cares. No info on engine, no screenshots. You and your project might as well be nothing more than a fantasy.Quote:

I Love Mu, and as such, love to play arround with its assets, we have used TerrainHeight as base for all Terrains so far, i saw your terrains, and they are beatyfull i imagine you did it manually?
Hope we can show our work soon here too.
The main focus now is to develop Battle System, as similiar as we can get to MuOnline.
A Good Advice to speed ur dev is Fury Framework for unity3d, contact me via PM if you have any interest.
