The end of this month. Ugh to much to do not enough time.

Picked up a new Developer Volt and we are still looking for more if anyone is interested.

Basic lua support is now in and a few commands have been added.





and had to throw this in.

Been awhile since a update sorry about that been busy.

Here are the major points factions have been introduced so NPC's should show the right color name now and character running/walking movement should be fluid now (Rotation still a little choppy tho). Emotes are in and working and offensive targets should show the right information along with characters having Titles now..


And here are the patch notes since the last update.

Thanks to Volt's hard work, we have some basic NPC Dialogs working -- so well in fact, my cheeks hurt from smiling at being able to write a LUA script and click the options Bravo, Volt!

Everyone should come to Isle of Dawn on New Telon, and speak to Tan Fen Greatcloud. He has an interesting story to tell you!




and the code to go along with it.

function spawn()
end

function opening_dialog(NPC, PC)
   OpeningDialog = GetDialog(NPC, PC)
   SetDialogGreeting(OpeningDialog, "Tan Fen Greatcloud says, \"Ahh! Thank you so much for answering our call for aid. I am Tan Fen Greatcloud, and I humbly welcome you to the Isle of Dawn.\"")
   AddDialogOption(OpeningDialog, "Can you tell me about the VGOEmulator Project?", "VGOAbout")
   AddDialogOption(OpeningDialog, "No, I am busy.", "DialogPCDeclined")
   CommitDialog(OpeningDialog, PC)
end

function VGOAbout(NPC, PC)
   CustomDialog = GetDialog(NPC, PC)
   SetDialogGreeting(CustomDialog, "Tan Fen Greatcloud tells you, \"There has been no greater adventure known in all the world than trying to reconstruct a world from our fleeting memories! Those involved in this project are true heroes, indeed.\"")
   AddDialogOption(CustomDialog, "Who are these heroes?", "VGOHeroes")
   CommitDialog(CustomDialog, PC)
end

function VGOHeroes(NPC, PC)
   CustomDialog = GetDialog(NPC, PC)
   SetDialogGreeting(CustomDialog, "Tan Fen Greatcloud smiles and says, \"You have not heard of the great and powerful Volt? Who has brought you these amazing dialogs so you can speak with me? Surely you have.\"")
   AddDialogOption(CustomDialog, "What about the others? They must have done something too!", "VGOOthers")
   CommitDialog(CustomDialog, PC)
end

function VGOOthers(NPC, PC)
   CustomDialog = GetDialog(NPC, PC)
   SetDialogGreeting(CustomDialog, "Tan Fen Greatcloud exclaims, \"Of course! John, Xinux and Scatman brought the world into being. Xen unraveled the mysteries of my very existence. Ratief determined your titles and whether or not I even like you with Factions! Not to mention those seekers of data who risked their very lives to bring you the world you see before you.\"")
   AddDialogOption(CustomDialog, "Tell me about the Data Collectors!", "VGOCollectors")
   AddDialogOption(CustomDialog, "Okay, I am bored now. Bye.", "DialogPCDeclined")
   CommitDialog(CustomDialog, PC)
end

function VGOCollectors(NPC, PC)
   CustomDialog = GetDialog(NPC, PC)
   SetDialogGreeting(CustomDialog, "Tan Fen Greatcloud holds his head in reverence, \"Ah, the Collectors! They were sent out into the world to discover all of Telon's secrets and return them to John, who used their discoveries to resurrect the world you know as New Telon!\"")
   AddDialogOption(CustomDialog, "Tell me about VGOEmulator again!", "VGOAbout")
   AddDialogOption(CustomDialog, "Tell me about those Heroes again!", "VGOHeroes")
   AddDialogOption(CustomDialog, "Tell me about those Others again!", "VGOOthers")
   AddDialogOption(CustomDialog, "Okay, I am bored now. Bye.", "DialogPCDeclined")
   CommitDialog(CustomDialog, PC)
end

function DialogPCDeclined(NPC, PC)
   CustomDialog = GetDialog(NPC, PC)
   SetDialogGreeting(CustomDialog, "Tan Fen Greatcloud tells you, \"I'll be right here when you wish to speak again. Farewell.\"")
   CommitDialog(CustomDialog, PC)
end

function DialogNPCDeclined(NPC, PC)
   NpcSay(PC, "Tan Fen Greatcloud says, \"Come back when you have gained more experience.\"")
   CloseDialogWindow(PC)
end

And while we are posting progress, here is some more!

It needs a little more work and then I have to clean out some stuff that doesn't belong in the starting abilities, implement the subclasses.

Awesome thanks Xinux!! Wish I knew more about the coding side of things to assist in the EQ2 and Vanguard Emulators. Was long time fan and huge contributor to both of them.

[xinu]

Had our after Holiday/New Year meeting if you guy's want to read through it here is the chat log.

Thank you!

[xinu]

Here is a few things added in the last two day's.

1. AFK will now show on the who list
2. Anon will now show you Anonymous on the who list
3. You can now set yourself or your target to GM/DEV with .setgm & .setdev same command will remove it.
3. Added [GM] and [DEV] tag in-front of your name in the who list. (If you think it looks better behind it i can move it.)
4. Sending a tell with either GM or DEV flag set will show (GM) after your name. (handled by the client)
5. Small visual change to the who list if you are set to GM or Dev the GM/DEV portion will now show in yellow the rest is still white.
6. Added in the option to inspect another player which should now populate with currently worn items.

Also we should hopefully have movers (Doors, Elevators etc etc) on NT in the next few days.

Been a little while since i did a video so figured it was about time.



This first one is showing off merchants, bank, and other misc details.

Just committed a new chunks table which should allow flying in all chunks so no more getting stuck when trying to take off. I had to enter a lot of values by hand so if you run into a chunk you have trouble flying in let me know the chunk ID or name and i'll take a look.
This will go live with the next update to NT which hopefully is tonight or tomorrow.

[xinu]

Been a little bit since I've posted a update so here is a link to all of our commit comments for the past month.
