Alright, I have made a scoreboard and to make it abit more cooler, I made it only load players within the region you are currently in. This means that other players may only see the players in the same region as his.

Meanwhile,
I did the following:
- Finished loots.
- More items! From Reaper.
- Optimized the scripts and inventory.
- Preparing functions for Player Owned Wagons (Because of MrCleans massivly huge and awesome landscape map)
- Altered the MySQL table. Just for the admins and clients to save the accounts more efficiently.
PS: Yes, I'm still working on the scoreboard. >_>
Looking great maw, making me more and more hyped.
The title "Old Age" in the scoreboard looks too stretched.
Rest is looking nice good work Maw.

I appreciate your support and your notices. As said, I will look into fixing the scoreboard.
I changed the skybox texture, changed the lighting and added paths:

Nice job. Also, add more trees and a Z- clipping plane so players don't load the entire map at once.
I agree it really needs a lot more variety and density. It is showing progress though so good work. :buddy:
My only remaining criticism is that the texturing (which I assume is WIP) is extremely repetitive on the grass.
Also I hope, to bring up a random point, that this map has some nice environmental sounds. I always find that small detail really makes a big difference in regards to how immersive it is to play.
Hope you don't mind me C&C'ing too much MrClean. I just always thought Old Age could do pretty well when I first saw the video of it ages ago and just want to see it do well. :3:
I shall get going on this...level up to be the strongest and be the king of the land!

oh and...how about pickpocket?

Will there be a beta or something?

Once I'm done with skill system and monsters and aswell as trainers and traders, a beta test server will be setup.
:dance::dance::dance:
Give us the ip then!

I'm still not even done the landscape so I plan on adding much more trees when its done.
I'll see what I can do about the textures but paint alpha has some limitations :/
alright, well I'll be waiting for your gamemode guys
I'm pretty much done the enviroment. All I need to do is add props, camps, [B]somthing[/B] in the underwater cave and maby change the textures a bit.

Also, TheMaw sorry for the dumb question but when you mean Z-Clipping planes do you just mean the clipping tool down the middle of the map? I ask this because the map is made up of 800x800 squares so I do not think player will load the entire map at the same time. :/

No. I mean, when you place a fog controller, it has a keyvalue called Z-Clipping Plane. It's default value is -1, which means it's disabled. Set it to a reasonable distance.
[QUOTE=Mod;19815929] [QUOTE=MrClean;19814592]k i'll delete a few more[/QUOTE]Do not delete them. In my opinion, you should add more.[/QUOTE]
By the way, what is the servers IP that you are going to have? :ohdear:
[QUOTE=Mod;20001420]By the way, what is the servers IP that you are going to have? :ohdear:[/QUOTE]
The test server is being hosted on 87.58.37.161:27014
Reaper may be hosting the official public servers.
P.S: I'm still looking for a modeller who can rig, mesh handle and animate. Including player models.
Is there going to be a tutorial at the beginning? that you can disable?
Also...catapult? ...whenever I think "old age" I think medieval age...which is not the case.

There will be a small guide included to the gamemode, as I explained in one of my videos. But good thing you asked incase other people didn't know.
UPDATE:
- Finished Group system.
- Added some quest npcs. Not fully functional but movement is ok. Preparing for the quests.
- Finished some models which will appear above the quest givers, depending if your on it or about to start it.
- Finished a reasonable note system.

(I noticed the little lua error on the first pic. It's just a simple error, where I forgot to do ValidEntity() on.)
-snip-
Great !
I just can't wait
[editline]09:29PM[/editline]
But, isn't it missing some trees to make a real forest?
I may try my hand at making a map for this.

The map is still unfinished and trees are the last thing that I am going to do :/
[QUOTE=MrClean;20015882]The map is still unfinished and trees are the last thing that I am going to do :/[/QUOTE]
That's what I thought too
[editline]12:38AM[/editline]
but you were talking about a camp...?
Is there going to be a starting "village/camp" then you go out and build your own and do quest?
[QUOTE=Rastadogg;20014908]I may try my hand at making a map for this.[/QUOTE]
Sounds nice. We might be hosting on multiply servers for larger area. Like a server for a city, server for outlands.
Reaper is a really good friend and offers me some servers. Tho, I won't take any donations, but maybe Reaper does for the server.
Who knows? :3
P.S Still need a modeller, who can rig. :/
P.S.S I need some ideas for some quests and perhabs some skills aswell! I need some, as I've read through the previous pages of Old Age, but I'm not sure if thats what I should keep in mind.
You gonna make those blue arrows above people's heads more in the style of this? Cos that blue looks like it would be in EVE

Yes.
More updates:
I changed the skybox texture again...

But at a price :ohdear:

Also, I may add fog because the z-clipping plane looks very bad with entire brushes poping up a once :/

Still need somthing to put in that damn underwater cave >.<

You made a mistake on the oa_region. It needs to cover the entire area and not inside a pool.
[QUOTE=themaw;20028600]You made a listake on the oa_region. It needs to cover the entire area and not inside a pool.[/QUOTE]
Just fixed that.

I almost lost my map a few min ago XD
I was maping when my pc crashed while it was autosaving :ohdear:
This happened right after I compiled the map so I had to use Vmex ([B]THAT I ONLY USE TO LEARN[/B]) to decompile the map so I could get it back...

... you probably have invalid brushes and other errors now (that you may not see) since you had to do that.
Not a good idea, and no offence - but the map isn't that great. It's okay since it's the only map you have Maw, but you need to get another better one.
I like the skybox
Those clouds looks real
