Just a quick update

[lapta]

Been really busy working on "mir 4"...

wat is mir 4 you ask.

Well...

Mir 4 is mir 2, with whole new server files and cleint, writen from fresh, so no crappy bugs that cant be fixed later on.

At the moment i am just having loong boring meetings and doing a lot of boring writing.

But once ever thing is up and running, as in the company start the programming it will all be worth it.

and yes you will all get a say in wat is added removed etc, just let me get the bog standard stuff done 1st before we all start jumping ahead of are selfs.

Wat we are aiming for at the moment is pretty much mir 1.4, just running around and hitting thing with a few pretty spells.

But...

All the maps are going to be redone, to look much nicer, running water, weather, night to day, not just light then dark, moving trees, you get the point, and so are all the moment files etc. All in a totally differant format, but looking the same on your screen, prob look a million times nicer tbh. We are not going to try and make mir somthing it's not, by adding 3d crap and the like. All the maps will have the same lay out, BW will be BW the mines will be the mines etc, so it wont be like when mir 3 started up, everything changing and no one having a clue wat is going on.

The main point of doing this is

1. to get the server files to pretty much the same state there are now, with all the stuff TheDeath has added.

2. to fix all the crappy bugs that have been in mir for years.

3. to fix all the major bugs that i cant fix due to not having the sorce code.

4. to be able to update mir how "we" want to without having to beg someone to add the smallest little thing.

The new files wont make mir something it's not. We will do are best to keep every thing the same as it is now, just much better.

Any way will make a whole section on this, so u can talk to the programmers and not me, as i will be busy sort out Mir Revenge :P

[Nephtune]

Hmmmm i really hope that our chars will be moved there @ same stats and items cause most of us worked hard to lvl and our kits have some mounths of hard hunting.Dont wanna start again from lvl 0 and no kit on me.
Maybe it will be so and i didnt understand from Jamie's post.

yeah well readin his post again it looks to be a fresh start. whether MR will be closed or not, well we will have to w8 and see lol.

but ye sayin "Wat we are aiming for at the moment is pretty much mir 1.4, just running around and hitting thing with a few pretty spells."
make me think that he is goin to revert it bak to the early days of euro mir. and build it up from that as ppl level or summert. but on the other hand he could meen that, that is what they are aiming at programmin wise and build it from there b4 releasing it.

a better explination would be nice on what is accually happenin regardin wipin the server or wot.

[auntsally]

i think its gonna be a seperate server all together, correct me if im wrong.

So while you're working heavily on the new version or Mir Revenge, I guess it would be of vital importance to have any and ALL bugs reported asap. Most you will know and have written down etc.. others you may not.

Any Skin or db error I supposed you need more of a hand to make sure all is up to date etc.. I'm still writing down my lists even though I fix these things in my copy of the DB before I hand it to you again. that way you can skim through and double check to make sure.
