sure i'll help out. What is the creator are you using?

I'm using a program called XtremeWorlds. It's the first engine I've tried that isn't hard to use or crashes repeatedly.

I could only do the playing part.

Make it browser based. Integrate it into the site.

I'm zipping a copy of the client now, hopefully I've set up my firewall properly to allow entry onto the game.
As for browser integration, if anyone can suggest a way to do that I'll be happy to give it a shot.

Server's up, client can be found here. Let me know if you get any errors.

Had to bring the server down for the night, it ought to be back tomorrow though.

I can play it and possibly do some spriting.

Francis, if u like it, host it.

I'll definitely try this out. Expect random spur-of-the-moment "this would be awesome" suggestions from me over time.

Server online and original post updated.

The game's playing some wierd music because it doesn't have the updated music files, I'll release a new version of the client when that's sorted.

Download this and extract the contents into the client folder to get the updated sounds. Also, you can now go east out of the Bitlands to find the Void and the first powerful enemy of the game.

server down

keep it up all day faggot

It looks like it's up to me.

Server's down for the night.

I've set up my computer so that the server will run whenever I have the computer on. Does anybody have any suggestions on the dedicated hosting issue?

Thanks to a rather clever piece of scripting, the server status is now an image that is automatically updated to show whether the server is on or off (updated every 10 minutes).

Haha, just downloaded the update. I was going to suggest the Open Plane!

In fact...I have a looped version that works with the Wii (seamless loop).
If there's a way I can implement that into this, I will.

To prevent the copy of the server files I sent to Francis from getting outdated, the server has been brought down until I know whether or not he will be able to host it.

I'll get to work on seeing what I can do about the seamless loop. My only gripe is the intro might have to be sacrificed.

This program needs a better music system. Probably an Intro file and Loop file.

I can't seem to save it as a MIDI...this is a problem...oh god Goldwave crashed trying to load the loop, I think.
I'll try again.
That's better.
My format-manipulation skills are pro.

PROGRESS
Bowser Battle ready (MP3)
Brobot Battle ready (MP3)
Fort Francis ready (MP3)
Francis Battle ready (MP3)
Mimi Battle ready (MP3)
Darkness/Void ready (MP3)

Francis hasn't been able to find the time to run the server at the moment, so I'm bringing it back up on my PC until the situation changes.

Mage class added.

why am i getting 5kb/s from the link...

The download or the game itself?

Download. also, I finished it, but abhorrently server is down

Have a look in IP configuration, make sure it's set to 93.96.201.18 since I might have accidentally changed it before uploading the file.

Even when I run it as administrator [right click > run as administrator]:

DLL register failed, you do not have permission to register dlls. This program must be run as Administrator.

I am the administrator.

Right Click > Run As Administrator

port #?

wups, not port, ip pass

IP pass is just the port, 7234.

ok, i got the params right, but its creating an acc for 3 min now

Hmm. I'm not seeing you in the account list. Only thing I can suggest without knowing what's going on is to restart the program and try again.

did so, trice. Its not sending an error, just constantly loading

ok im running in compatibility mode

Compatibility mode shouldn't do much - I'm running it fine on Windows 7. Only things I can suggest are to double check the IP and Port settings, and to try running the Register Files program in the client folder.

i reinstated, now i didn't get layout error, which i got first time

maybe its the current download missing a file. Although I assume the main app runs regesterfiles.exe which it the one not working for me

send me source code; tkolomatski@hotmail.com

Just uploaded a new client with some updated music. This one definitely works and has the correct port settings, I'm running it myself.

Post a link to the latest upload; I need to eat and then I'll probably work on the next 3 songs.

DONE
It's Show Time!
Ready, GO!
The Open Plane

BONUS!
Closing Battle

more weapons
I need more weapons

"new" client is same size and still has odd ip, are u sure it's different

Odds are the file size is slightly different but too small a change to be displayed. As for the IP, that one definitely works.

If anyone's interested in mapping, developing or spriting please let me know (either in the topic or via PMs) and I'll make the arrangements in-game. Remember that if you abuse your powers, I can and will find out and you will be jailed or banned depending on what you did.

I said I did right click > run as administrator, but that didn't work.

@DarkBlueAce: Does the game itself run without need of the Register Files program? It's usually used if there's an error showing up, but if you do need to register the DLLs copy the file to the System32 folder (or whatever it is on your PC), open cmd as administrator and run regsvr32 dllname.dll.

I managed to fix it.

http://www.spriters-resource.com/custom_ed...
this page has TONS of sprites from almost all the mario games, and some great sprite renditions of SPM characters. give credit to whoever made the sprites you use

if mapping isn't too complicated I can give it a whirl

@Slim: I've upgraded you to Mapper rank and placed a Dev Key (opens all doors, including the locked stairway in Fort Francis) in your inventory. F1 opens the admin console, all the commands you need are in there.
@DimFish: That site should definitely help, but it'll probably take time to get everything up and running.

kk, I see new client

Just finished uploading a new client with a few extra sprites.

I've pretty much mapped every area now

Is the server going to be up later today?
I want to work on adding more weapons

GO ONLINE ALREADY DFLKJHNLS

So I haven't been paying attention all day.
A general update to progress would be lovely.

The existing maps have all been revamped by Slim, and the Tile Pool is currently under construction.

Tile Pool, eh? That shouldn't be hard for me to loop, since I've made a .brstm of it already.

How am I supposed to work on it if it goes offline when I get home from school everyday?

I can't help being alseep. If you have any ideas on how I can run it 24/7 please suggest them. Also, today I start school so the server won't be on most of the (GMT) morning and some of the afternoon, but that shouldn't be a problem for you Americans.

Can't you just leave your computer on and turn off the screen or something

I would if I could, but my parents don't appreciate me leaving the computer on overnight and I expect they would complain if I started leaving it on every night.

do it anyway

Tile Pool music is ready.

Gonna release a new client shortly containing some new sprites, a new music file and a fix to the IP settings that should prevent my dynamic IP from causing any problems in the future.

New client's up at the usual location.

I've just finished adding a new feature to Nerr Online: Premium Items.
At Bitlands S there is now a cave containing a shop filled with extra powerful items, which you can purchase using Premium Coins. These items are currently more powerful than all the other items in the game, and will remain so - as new, more powerful items are added I will update the Premium Items so that they are constantly the most powerful.
The first (and currently only) way to gain Premium Coins is to fight O'Chunks, who has a low chance of dropping a coin when defeated. As time goes on, I'll be adding more ways to earn these coins, as well as new Premium Items to purchase.

Why does it say my password is incorrect even though I have it set to save my password? @.@

I don't know. Would you like me to reset the password for you and see if that helps?

Yeah, that'd be lovely.

Changed, PMd you the new password.

All done.
