3D online war game idea

Posted by HeroofTime55 on June 24, 2006, 2:33 p.m.

heh i had this wacky crazy insane idea to make a MMO war game, in full 3d. Would include planes, tanks, lots of explosives, and much other stuff. But now im wondering if its even possible with GM, online and 3D? Both im sure take alot of processing power, so a combination might be a bit ugly in speed.

In other news, ive been playing Roller Coaster Tycoon, and completed most of the levels under "loopy landscapes"….. What a waste of my time!

SSBM is awesome, as usual, and i figured out an instant 999% damage method that is not the time consuming setup of the black hole glitch, though it cant be used again and again. Go to the kirby level where the star blocks fall, and stand in the middle of the blocks so they surround you (except top is open). Move the enemy in there with you. Now go in the menu and drop a ton of red shells, the maximum. it works best with link and his smash down, so far in my tests. You get insta 999% damage that dosent kill you, and like a 200 something combo. nice.

Now then, i dont know what i'm doing. I got a ton of awesome stuff in the works, i dont know what to do first. I might go back to programming Revolution.

Also, i have to come up with a personal badge that will likely never become reality :D

Yay for RCT. Great game. RCT1 is soooo easy. Completed it twice. RCT2 is annoying, and would have been way way better if you have to complete one level to get then next. Still better than RCT1 though.

LOL. I love how all the n00bs say "Im making a MMORPG, i dont know how someone help me! give me an example/in some other way do all the work for me!"

Ya, it's generally: "Can someone make the engine so I can change the graphics? Credit given!"

But anyway, GM probably wouldn't run it fast enough to be playable, plus you'd need a lot of serers….Good luck with that…

It would be ugly, and run really slow.

But it's remotely possible.

You should learn another language for that, honestly. Because a game like that would be possible, but lag exetremely.

Hehe, I'd love to help with somthing like this… I'm sweet at 3D (looky here).

And I'm also working on a multiplayer based for action games all run in C++, including server (which I can run from my website) and the only GML in it is getting the varaibles to send (no ClearBuffer(); WriteByte(5); WriteByte(2) and all dat crap).
