Don't discount that hope just yet! Though no promises.

I'm pretty sure this will have no effect on increasing or retaining the number of players of course.

I bet he owns all sausage related names

Hi there SPAM :D! If you do complete the client how will you handle the hardcoded garbage and what what will you change?

Hi there SPAM :D! If you do complete the client how will you handle the hardcoded garbage and what what will you change?

The only particularly retarded hard-coded data tables I can think of are slashy effects and NPCs. I could stuff them in to unused pub file slots, but most likely I'll just download data tables from the same place it downloads graphics from (https://game.eoserv.net/eo2-atlas/html/)

The character rendering / animation offsets are staying in a nice big hard-coded table. There's really no practical use to being able to change them unless you're starting from scratch.

I had this future concept for letting GUI layout be defined by the server too: http://pastebin.com/raw/HqUyC9cC. That doesn't really let you add any new capabilities to the client though, just the ability to move buttons around and connect them to different actions.

Edit: Also there's very little chance anyone will be seeing the source code or be able to just connect the client to their own servers. Since it downloads all assets from a server (with the intention of releasing a web-based version), you'd have to set up your own for modified servers.

Sweet can't wait to see this

Nice! Open source or not it sounds good.Allthough in my opinion an open source client from you would put a nice spark back in EOSERV I dont blame you for not wanting to share the source.

 I was thinking about redoing my client some of the code is garbage and I think I want to change all the GUI. I'm not to much for the layout of the ingame GUI.. I think I want pop out tabs on the frame and the pop out window's to be transparent. I also recently added game pad support which gave EO a neat feeling.. the only downfall there is tryimg to type with 1 hand but in battle its in my opinion better than useing keys. I will prolly add touch screen support but since I dont have my tablet atm I'm not to worried about it.

That was a surprising response. :o

Not that you care, but I wasn't in any way implying that you were obligated to make a custom client..
I just assumed you of all people would have the greatest interest and expertise in doing so. =d

Anyways, would be great to see more info about it later on like others have said!
I'd love to see it open source eventually, but I understand either way. Would still be pretty nice to finally have a new unrestricted client, open source or not.
