Well i took a couple of days off from it, Ive had a project handed to me related to it for creating content quickly and easiily so ive been getting myself up to speed on that and tweaking it here and there, migrating it to mysql shouldnt be TOO difficult it uses sqllite for python currently so it shouldnt be too difficult.
Now that I am back ontop of it there SHOULD be a new playable demo with several new populated zones available tomorrow barring any unforseen issues that is.
The Way that I have this setup with this content editor anyone can now help create the content even without access tot he sqllite db files so that will be a big improvement.
One thing I didnt mention is that KOTOR Is a big influence in this game, not the story of it obviously but the mechanics of how you play the game will be similar it will be very storyline driven, not just a mindless constant grind.
The gui will be getting a major makover in due time, I wanted to make some decent content for a demo together first and get some of the internal things that i wanted to change changed before i tackled the gui. One thing I feel I should mention in terms of the community I havent considered making this an opensource project due to licensing issues, So giving the source out to people not activly on a "development team" really cant happen. Now that isnt to say that the development team couldnt be huge lol.
the graphics engine acutally supports far better graphics then those I am using and that is something that will be worked on over the course of development.
Thanks for the vote of confidence, like I said there should hopefully be a new playable demo up and running soon with all the added content ive been working on Ill post here when its ready
