    Area Of Adventure - Advanced FTP Game Project
    « on: September 11, 2008, 10:29:34 AM »

    I'm sorry if this board is not meant to contain MS-DOS/Batch projects. But I feel it would be interesting and or beneficial to some of the community. :-\

    I'm working on a revolutionary new Batch game called Area Of Adventure, here is the project overview:
    I have decided to release all of my source code under the general public license agreement, which will allow you to legally edit my work as long as you give credit to the original distributor (Me).

    I will make a self sufficient localhost game and then with the help of some friends we will turn it into a ftp game.

    This post will be updated every time I progress further in the project, I may need to call on this communities expertise at times, and individual persons will be given appropriate credits within the game itself, aswell as the community as a whole.

    Yo Jacob, looks nice!

    Is this like the game you were making a while back or is it completely different?

      where can i download it? , check out odnn.co.nr/gamelatest , this is the game i wrote many months ago.. its crude, i have a few updated versions just none working because it became way to much to re-write, i just havent had time ... i wanted to make a multiplayer, not through ftp because it required passwords, i was just going to use a .net upload script to an active page on the same webserver, and a binary image downloader script

        Thanks carbon, and  yes it is completely different.

        And, your game looks nice diablo but ftp will work great for me as your account will need a password.

          i will help with the user interface and the controls. not that good with working with FTP in CMD.    :-\

          i like your goals. from wat you want it to be like, it sounds like a MS-DOS version of Runescape. just without the complex 3D graphics  ;)
          If you dont know DOS, you dont know Windows...

          Thats why Bill Gates created the Windows NT Family.

            Hey Jacob, I have a suggestion.

            You can keep editing that first post but can you also say something like 'bump' or something so we know it has been updated.

            Edited posts do not show in our Unread Topics.  ;)

            Anyways, Nice Video.  :)
