    Talking The Dark Legends of Shazow

    Hello all,

    Hope I'm not intruding but red baron and I are competing in a computer science fued. This assignment was for our final evaluation for the course. We've got essentially similar games and basically trying to make one better than the other.

    Here's mine for those who want to compare

    I'll also be posting the source at a later date...

    Comments and suggestions are also welcome.
    Thanks to those who tried to answer my questions on this board previously.

    Hope red baron doesn't mind
    I just thought that he wanted a fair match..

    (few minor problems, please let me know if you find any though)

    - shazow

    you can wear a helmet, body, legs, shield, weapon, do magic, and use potions in mine.

    heh boasting is so much fun when competing, if we grow up the fun will all go away, so stay young and have fun.

    How far back exacly?

    I had another game (it's actually a web MUD) that had a scrolling terrain like in my game back in February... though I didn't post it so you still win...

    What kind of MMORPG are you working on and what kind of servers / database are you using? I'm thinking of working on something like that this summer...

    that far back
    Unfortunatly, I changed webservers so none of the links i posted works. if you really want to see what i had done, let me know, and ill reupload that junk.
    c++->visualc++->directx->opengl->c++;
    (it should be realized my posts are all in a light hearted manner. And should not be taken offense to.)
