jaggeh

and just in case ur thinking 'oh deadly i guess ill be valheru then'

im changing valheru to Drow (dark elves)

and ill be adding LOADS of race hating weapons

SECTION ITEM 57000
{
NAME Silver Dagger
RACE XX
ID 0F51
LAYER 1
LODAMAGE 3
HIDAMAGE 15
HP 30
DECAY
VALUE 150
RESTOCK 0
STR 1
SPD 55
WEIGHT 100
GOOD 27
RACE 11
ALIGNMENT 0
MODIFY1 0
MODIFY2 0
MODIFY3 0
MODIFY4 0
MODIFY5 0
FAME 0
}

this is a silver weapon as you can see race 11 indicates undead, this makes it possible for me to have race specific weapons like the dwarven axe of orc gashing or somthing like that.

anyway coding to do talk to yas later

jaggeh

actually if anyone has any suggestions for a race they can be easily added just let me know

Rev Hellfire

Here veonix be a dear and set me up an account as well.

jaggeh

i knew it would just be a matter of time rev :P

LoLth

they seem just a tad unbalanced.

for example: the dwarf gains 40 points but loses only 10 and gains 12 skill ranks.

elf: loses 20, gains 50, and 17 skill points

gnome: gains 20 , loses 30 and only 4 skill points.

I take it, with the inclusion of Valheru, you're going for the Kingdom style world from Feist?

I don't mean to just criticise, I'll do a mock up and post them as a suggested alternative.

meanwhile: I take it skills get ranked from 0 to 5 , what's the base stat starting point? What's teh combined stat limit?
What's the total skill cap? total number of skills? How do ranks increase - level based or natural growth? Do you have to use them to increase?

not being picky, just trying to be helpful.

LoLth

idea for the undead race:

each kill the get adds to their health but, they only get half healing from magic and their health declines over time to a low level.

to balance this, they could possibly get a disease or poison attack that gets better with levels.

WhiteWashMan

ahahahahahaha
dwarves require beards
ahahahahahahaha

how about a troll or something?

green elf needs food....badly.

jaggeh

lolth those are the default races
the races i have decided to keep are

[mortal races]
Elves
Dark elves
Dwarves
Dewar (dark dwarves)
Halflings
Humans

[magical races]
Faery (they aint all kiss's and cuddles ye know)
orcs
goblins

im thinking of making the gargoyles a race similar to the single player ultima games.

the stats are also not final that was a cut and paste from uox.

plus some weapons will be race specific as in 'you have to be a dwarf to use this weapon'

jaarius

what be this shard game?

if i may asq.

jaggeh

skills start off at 0.0 and go up to 100.0

the stats max im resetting to 250 with the different races having different specific caps.

example elf

str 60
int 90
dex 150

i think thats about right

im working on the races at the moment

we are talking about an Ultima Online shard provided by Jag.

it is realy quite a good game i only started playing it last Tuesday and i am quite addicted, too much in fact as the shard isnt online all the time so i get a bit frustarted when i try to connect and the shard aint up.

but kudos to Jag the shard is already quite fun even though it isnt even finished yet

jaggeh

i should really let sleeping dogs lie, or leave hatchets burried but....
when cleaning out my old thread subscriptions i found this it reminded me.

i put weeks of work into that shard
i even learned to code for the old UOX for it.
i was running it from a 56k connection while testing it, then when i was giving it to someone to run on a 24/7 server the disc mysteriously dissappeared.

coupled to the hard drive it was stored on melting, all was lost.

sigh

Nevyn

a little bit of info on what exactly it is would be nice like

jaggeh

an ultima online shard with about 200 hours put into it by me, and about the same from the other 2 GM's that were working on it.

Nevyn

Is there a weby with more info?
are you looking for players?
what is the world premise?
is there some where to dl the client for it ?

jaggeh

if you read my first post that dredged this up
i lost my own copy due to a hard drive failure and the cd i had done up to install it on a webserver was stolen by the person who was supposed to install it
so all the work that went into it was lost, the fact that i managed to get nearly 20 people playing it is proof that it did infact exist
