Online PVP

[NH97]

Hello, does any of RM can possibly create an offline game that has online PVP system?

 

[Andar]

do you mean to simulate an online PvP?


that could be done even with eventing, it's just a lot of work to set everything up because you'll be using a lot of cutscenes to pretend to be online.


If you mean a real online function over the internet - there is one such script for an older RM (I think XP, but I don't know) but it is a lot of work to program scripts for online-function, and for Ace that work is not yet complete (there are only scripts for some highscores and basic data exchange yet, nothing fast and reliable enough for true PvP

What i mean is, an offline rpg that can be connected to a server that let the player to fight another people. (yep a real online function)

Example:

- Zenonia series

So does this mean it is not imposibble?

If it can be connected to a server for whatever purpose, then it's NOT an offline RPG. If you want to get a script, then you need to be precise in your description, and you can't assume that the scripter has played the same games you have (there are scripters here that almost never play games, so a comparison to an unknown game series - I never even heard of Zenonia, and I play games) will not help you.


You need to describe what you want better, including the complete mechanics you want.


That said, if you limit the online functions to some arena instead of a full online RPG, then that becomes "only" very difficult to do instead of extremely difficult - but you'll need a customized script fit to your arena, it can't be a general online script. That'll add the problem of finding someone to write a script that might not be of use to others.


And we're not talking about something that can be done fast - any online capacity will take months of work, and such a work is rearely done for free...

This is really really good explanation, im really grateful that you take your time for this!

If you haven't heard about Zenonia, it is a mobile rpg (Android/IOS) that has online PVP system, only PVP not MMORPG. And i agree that i shouldn't assume that the scripter has play all the games that i played.

Well then let me describe what i want:

- The project that i am planning is a collecting monster (like Pokemon, Digimon) but has some RPG elements. So i thought it might be interesting to put PVP system in the game. Though, i don't want it to be a full-scale online MMORPG. I just need Online PVP system, ranking system, and tournament. And yeah i already considered this will become a LOT of work to be done. I already plan to pay the scripter after i got some donation/or starting Kickstarter campaign. But its not like im planning to put the PVP system in the game, it just that, i thought it might hype the player to play the game.

*PS: if you haven't played Zenonia i totally recc you this game! (this game is actually famous, there is 5 series of the game)
