OK I think I have a better idea still is the same but we could do it
Is like doing a chat room ok the idea is based on MUD games
text based games but the diferences are we will use graphics
to show the static elements like (buildings, minfigs that are just bots and are
also static they will let us go to other places if they are far,) dynamic
elements like (users, objects, some bots, actions, ... ) Why like this well I
found interesting MUD games www.4dimensions,org is cool place but is bit anoying
to imagen all I don't mind imagining half of the rooms but not all and a part is
bit complex game to learn it takes time is nice do only thing if it uses
graphics for the static items it whould be cool so what if we do our own MUD of
LDRAW?
Here are the features I want it to have :
.Chat rooms, chat system like in 4D MUD so we can talk in any room
- By talking in public channels and private ones too
- Talking with people that are in same room as the player
- Whispering "private 1 to 1 talk in any room even if is full"
. News boards to post, read posts (this feature is great i think , not in all
rooms)
. More easy ways to learn and to start to play or to use this Project for
newbies
. Module system so that we can expand the Project
. A RPG game system for one that want to play and for just to be in this Project
. Virtual money (but this once we get started with the project I have more ideas
most are based on 4D MUD)
What's the first building to make well I was thinking a sort off town center or
visitors center or what ever we may call it a builing with:
A big room to imagen us all there for public chats
Some small rooms to be with around 2 to 6 or 10 max half public chats
A bar may be
A place to post and read posts
A libriary we could have up online books (I mean text only i don't plan to have
pdfs files)
A help desk
A Map in a wall if we se it grows the idea
Some transport like taxi to go to other place, if we add a diferent there we can
have a space port to go to space and to go in time with special doors in the
space station or if we decide to have it in the main buiding the starting point.
Starting point is always out side the main building and the end when we quit or
disconnect is just the place we where disconnected we always return to main
building to start, for now is that what i have in mind.
Oh this whould be a RPG fisrt person graphic game like Heart of china but with a
lot of use of text , don't worry we won't have to read much to understand or
play, is not just a game.
well I hope u like my idea

Hello.
Yes, I like your idea, but it's hard to imagine what exactly
you want it to look like. Please make drawings of your ideas
so it is easier to get the idea.
Then I have some questions:
When do you want this game to go into production? How much time you want to put
into this? What programming tools are you going to use? If programming is to be
done by more than one person, how will they comminucate, what is the
organisational structure and what will they eat and drink during meetings? Will
coworkers get payed for all their time and efforts? Who will design the
packaging? Who will talk to the LEGO company about copyrights and licences?
and so on.
All the best,
Jan F.

GREAT :), Ok I explain again , to undestand u can go to www.4dimensions.org and
and play the 4D game or let me try to explain again.
ok you will see a drawing of the room u are in so u don't need to
imagen it but if u are with other players or users you will see a list
of who is in same room, I want it like these becuase i can't make it all
in graphics specially moving objects or players so u have it bit like in 4D
but with less typin commands, I will make a GUI program and put it at brickself
when i can so u can see and example , I plan to do for now a server program and
a client program unless someone helps me I will make it on Delphi 5

Well I was trying to make the game already, time well I'm all day at home so I
have all day.

Delphi 5 for now any easy tool u know?
Well I'm a home user not a profesional, if we work together we do it over the
internet, we can use MSN messenger and or ICQ or e-mail

No is a voluntary idea even with help or not I want to do it hope I can do it
alone if I don't get help, once is done the basic model and I have the program
done then anyone can add stuff if the want even if they didn't help on the
programming
About LEGO Co and copyrights well is a free program , about licence well I don't
know anything about that but i whould love to have one something like GNU but
making that no one can get money from it

I decided to use Game maker to build the project and so far goes great I
have made it possible to run a multiplayer session and now is possible:
- to chat
- move around spots and the other playes can see a message saying your location
in game , for now in text but later i will make it so that we see us as lego
minifugs
Main features of this project are
-To have a datsville like so we can
chat, post messages, interact with this 3d world, make 3d models and upload
and more as we go...
-A nice way to enjoey our LDRAW models
The project main idea is a city or world where not just we log and chat
we log 1st as guests if we are not registered
there some groups of people in this project
- The administrators and city architects
They can build any type of models and plan how city is desingned
- The Citizens with special permission to build houses for them selfs
They might have some limits like they can't make anything else but 1 house
about size we can discuss that
- The citizens that have no permission to build
They can do anything once they don't made any 3d model
They live in hotels or apartments or houses
they can buy or rent
- The guests
Can only live in hotels they will have to pay get permission to
upgrade their group
We have to discuss more about this project please help me on this
I think is a good idea and is fun
I have test done but I need helpers to work with this to try this test and to
make this idea come true.
Oh about the money is just virtual money is in the game but for now most idea
are not made I need to see what u all think.
Is anyone interested in this project?
