Wish list / Yup me again...Charities
« on: May 17, 2003, 02:55:11 pm »
Ok as mentioned in my \'Prison\' thread maybe the introduction of a charity scheme would be useful. For fresh lvl.1 characters they would have a place to get a meal and recover. Of course they would only be allowed access if poor enough (the server would check how much money they have and also the \'value\' of all the items in their posession) and would then either turn down the not so poor cheapskate or show the poor, beaten and battered \'noob\' a meal and a place to rest.
Of course the charity could do more than just that. How about running a donation scheme where richer individuals can donate to the charity and be recognised for it (and then possibly be rewarded).
How about a charity shop where the poor people get access to free materials to make objects and can then sell them to the shop. [The shop would then sell those items] Of course the materials would be mostly worthless and even the final products would be worth not so much but at least it wold make them some money and could increase some skills such as wood working or forging etc.
Anyway please expand this idea...would be ideal for new commers to the planeshift world.

Yup thats right for all of those naughty people who get caught of course there should be a nice little place for them to go and have a thinkab out what they\'ve just done.
(By the way i dont know if this has been posted before but i just hope it hasnt been
)
If caught by the guards the criminal should be stuck in a cell for maybe an hour for being caught pick-pocketing or making alittle violation and then maybe up to a week for more serious offenses. And then hell for mass murder and theft giv\'em 3 weeks to rot in a cell.
This time would pass even if not logged on but there would be ways of cutting down the sentence. Such as maybe doing work for charitable organisations. (oh theres another idea...ill post one about that next
) Work such as cooking food for poor players who cant afford a meal etc. and for every... lets say... chicken they cook, their sentence would be reduced by 30 minutes. Or maybe by fixing items at a forge for free etc. well ill let you guys post some more ideas :]
Now ill write about charities....(see my next post)

Wish list / --Graphics options!
« on: May 03, 2003, 03:25:40 pm »
I dont know if this has ever been discussed but appropriate graphics levels must be set. And here are my recommendations:
-Highest: Runs smooth on a 2.5GHz system (or equivalent) with top of the line graphics card.
-High: Runs smooth on a 1.8GHz system and graphics card at least as powerful as a GeForce 3 Ti-200.
-Medium: Runs smooth on a 1.4GHz system with graphics card at least GeForce 2 or equivalent.
-Low: Runs smooth on a 900MHz system with Geforce 2 or equiv.
-Lowest: Runs smooth on a 500MHz system with TNT2 or equiv graphics card. But can run on a system of 350MHz or more.
I state these results after a poll I ran at a different web site a couple of weeks ago and thought Id share this with you.
Of course Im aware that it is very diffficult to encode to such a spectrum of PCs but unfortunately its the reality and I would recommend taking in these suggestions as \'targets\'.
Hope this helps,
K-C

General Discussion / The end of the world!!!
« on: April 20, 2003, 10:02:28 am »
Heres a look from the end of the world (the planeshift world that is). Some nice views from out here so i recommend taking a nice trip across the ocean to attain these beautiful views. Enjoy 
A view of the city:
A view of the border1:
A view of the border2:
If youd like more tell me and ill take more.
These were all taken at dusk, during the day the border develops a nice light blue colour.

Granted or negated Wishes / Servers.
« on: January 30, 2003, 08:33:48 am »
This is probabily the most obvious post ever but...
It would be a good idea to create several servers for different functions. I.e. There would be one server allocated to noobs and 2 or 3 others to the rest of the world. The noob land would be a place of no PKing and would teach them basic skills. Once a certain level was reached then off they\'d go to the real world. The real world would have different areas, or themes to them...i.e. there would be a snowy land to the north and a desert land somewhere south and a more lush area elsewhere. And in order to reduce server problems between each area the player would be transfered from one server to the other.
Of course, yes i am aware of the initial cost of these beasts (the servers), so yes i do think it is a good idea to take it one step at a time.
But as we are all well aware of, there is even lag now with simply 2 or three players at a time! So this problem needs to get sorted. :]

Granted or negated Wishes / How far can you go..!!..
« on: January 26, 2003, 06:03:09 pm »
I was wondering if how much interaction will there be between characters. Kissing, hugging...etc. Or even just smacking and hitting, but not in an HP deminishing way.
It would be intersting to see a system which actually allows \"mating\" to occur. Of course it would have to be nothing but, softcore and could be limited, to \"in the bedroom\" or in a house (i.e. not in the streets). This would also mean females would become pregnant and would allow AI characters to be born...i dont know how complicated this could get, but it would really add a twist to the game that no other game has ever gone to before. You could have couples breaking up because of adultery etc. Could lead to an interesting game.
;( Or you could just scrap my idea.
