http://www.endless-ages.com/ea-blogs/ Endless Ages is a Massivley Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game with a first person shooter twist! Come and see why this is the most unique game you will ever play! en Fri, 21 Nov 2008 20:49:51 GMT vBulletin 60 http://www.endless-ages.com/images/kickyfast/misc/rss.jpg http://www.endless-ages.com/ea-blogs/ http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/plasticairedale/45-developement-update.html Mon, 17 Nov 2008 14:51:16 GMT So I've still been leveling up my alts to get screenshots and information on their equipments. I've gotten them all through the 12 armor quests, leveled up to 8 melee, and 8 WT. Which means I've hit the point where leveling slows down a bit. Plus all the rest of the swords are crazed smithed or rare drops, so it will take a while to get those pictures.

All this means is I will probably have to start bugging people again to pose for screenshots, especially for the armor sets, as its gonna take forever to get complete sets for my alts. Who knows, maybe I'll have to do a photoshoot and hope people show up.

The program itself has a couple updates waiting for the next release. I've redone the guns page to better display guns that have multiple shots (like the tomshockneo, or physus rifle). I've also added a button on the about page to allow you to check for updates to the program. I haven't added the ability to download updates yet, as I want to take that in steps, and want to see how just checking the server for updates works first.

An update should be released sometime this week, as I want to put in a couple more quests, and maybe a couple more screenshots. I hate to have people keep downloading these 10MB+ updates so I am trying to keep the updates to a minimum. ]]> plasticAiredale http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/plasticairedale/45-developement-update.html http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/plasticairedale/44-yet-another-release-1-0-20081105.html Wed, 05 Nov 2008 23:20:05 GMT Quick release to further support internalization of the program.

Although it will probably be roughly the same size since most of the program's size is in the pictures folder. Thats it for now. Happy Halloween!]]> So I have been busy this week leveling up my alts (HM/HF/BL) in WT. They all are level 18 in their tradeskills, but were all level 1 WT at the beginning of this week. What this means is I will be getting updated gun pictures from them to be included in the next release. As of last night they are all level 6 WT, so its gonna take a while. I may start bugging people in game to pose for screenshots :o so this can happen faster.

I also have been collecting information on the Gideons/Crests/Badges to be included in the Misc->Base Items section.

You can check out the website here: EA MonsterBytes Website (http://plasticairedale.110mb.com/). I plan on using this blog to as kind of a development log, to discuss what I am working on for the next release, and to hopefully get feedback from users on bugs and suggestions. If you download the latest version you will notice that I am still in need of some pictures for armor, guns, and swords. If you can model any of these for me let me know and we can try and setup a time and place for me to get these final screenshots. I am currently leveling up my HM/HF/BL as fast as I can so I can get these screenshots myself, its just going to take a while, so any help here would be appreciated. So anyway give the program a shot and let me know what you think. So I just released the latest and first version of EA MonsterBytes. You can check out the website here: EA MonsterBytes Website.

I've got all but two GM's to get rid of right now and I've got to try to find more GM's. Not going to open recruiting until after I get the other ones deleted entirely.

Got three things ready for the holiday to be submitted and then formatted so that it can be worked with -- and then maybe implemented. Thanks to Chaos and Telos this is all possible. I'm wanting to reward the players, cause they sure deserve it.

Will be around as much as possible-- but tonight is a bit of a problem. Got to fix the dryer. yea-- big fun /sarcasm.

Will have to work out a date and time for thunderdome again, spawn events, CTF and a few others. I've got a lot to do apparently-- time to roll up my sleeves and get started. ]]> oogie http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/oogie/40-just-notes.html http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/kipperlips1/39-my-rides.html Mon, 01 Sep 2008 01:14:32 GMT Image: http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e338/kipperlips/splitassinmech.jpg Image: http://gi72.photobucket.com/groups/i197/71TPY1PU4U/scrn0031.png Image: http://gi72.photobucket.com/groups/i197/71TPY1PU4U/scrn0036.png Image: http://gi72.photobucket.com/groups/i197/71TPY1PU4U/scrn0039.png Image: http://gi72.photobucket.com/groups/i197/71TPY1PU4U/scrn0040.png Image: http://gi72.photobucket.com/groups/i197/71TPY1PU4U/scrn0045.png Image: http://gi72.photobucket.com/groups/i197/71TPY1PU4U/scrn0049.png Image: http://gi72.photobucket.com/groups/i197/71TPY1PU4U/scrn0051.png Image: http://gi72.photobucket.com/groups/i197/71TPY1PU4U/scrn0060.png Image: http://gi72.photobucket.com/groups/i197/71TPY1PU4U/scrn0053.png

NO- they won't be on the internet in their rooms.

At any rate, I found my old gamefiles folder. I found a bunch of other stuff I may just post because it will mean loads to so many. Pics of bluegirl, sheeva (in blue) hoverbikes, clan houses, just a whole bunch of stuff. The old blobic spikey armor.

I can't wait to get them onto another comptuer and get them on here.

Leo was not your ordinary old cat he was special. He came into our lives as a kitten of approximatly 4 months old. He walked into our house and made his self at home, and would not leave I tried to find his owner but no one claimed him.

I never could understand how someone could not claim him ,he was so beautiful. Solid white with long hair and big beautiful bright lime green eyes, and about the most friendly personality I have ever seen in a cat. Everyone who ever met him wanted to take him home. He was very loving & calm more like a dog then a cat. He also had a voracious appetite and at last vet check he weighed 19 and 1/2 pounds.

Last night Scott, my other half, noticed him acting strange and picked him up all of a sudden he started gasping for breath. Within 5 minutes he was gone. We didnt even have time to get him to the vet.

We laid him to rest with many tears and his favotite cat toy, an old grey stuffed mouse that he was toss around and attack for hours on end.

So with tears flowing still I write this as a tribute to a dear old and very missed friend. I miss you Leo, I always will.


If anyone who reads this has a cat or dog, go hug them let them know you love them as much as they love you. ]]> Sheeva http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/sheeva/36-goodbye-my-old-friend.html http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/oogie/35-just-making-note.html Wed, 30 Jul 2008 10:10:20 GMT Ok haven't done this in a while.

Putting up screenies of the spawn event -- finally. Been busy with life and game in general. I don't think anyone really realizes what all goes on from "this" side.

Trying to be in game, on boards and everything else too takes a lot. I'm trying to be around and available as much as humanly possible but my real life sometimes intrudes.

I don't know what I'd do without Latnia. Been a real God send. New GM's Solstice, Eclipse and Ice have been awesome to bring on board.

Still sorting through apps and finding info out as fast as I can on folks. Some get through part of the interview and once they find out what GM's can do - they wanna back out. ... oh well

I need to make a post about what gm's can do and what they can't do. Really have a lot to take care of. So just so people have a clue about some things.

In the past week I've helped people with quest problems, helped people under the map, problems with the maps, took in reports about problems with DEX gain just to mention the latest, brought on new gms (still gotta gear up Ice), worked on getting up pics from events, worked on getting more events going---- the list keeps on going.

Will write more later just getting my head on straight right now. ]]> oogie http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/oogie/35-just-making-note.html http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/hellbinder/34-first-many.html Fri, 25 Jul 2008 23:29:06 GMT I decided it was time to get an exact handle on what the following items actually do for you.

Any solutions?


oh and vis can i borrow your "plane of suck" picture ]]> AsianAce13 http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/asianace13/33-help-me.html http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/oogie/32-player-information.html Sun, 06 Jul 2008 11:11:36 GMT Just to let folks know what's been going cause I hear people grumbling.

Since June 17th, I've been busy trying to get stuff organzied to put GM's in game. I've went over the player Rules of Conduct for in game, re-wrote them. The old ones just didn't work or apply. Tried to find the old GM rules and regs-- no luck so I wrote them from scratch too. Awaiting final draft, approval and posting.

I've been trying to get back into the swing of things while trying to learn the system in which to operate things from. Tried to help players with problems as best as I humanly could and tried to be on as much as my real life would allow. I placed items in vaults when advised to do so and moved a few folks as needed.

I've placed in I think four or five reports -- including everything from poly fixes and SS problems to graphical glitches and missing items. I've also been testing things out and writing a lot of stuff down for later use. I've been in contact daily with at least two devs ever since-- if not all the devs.

I am a mom of 3. I have a home to keep. I can't always be around. That's why I want, and quite frankly NEED, to get a few GM's in game. Just an initial few and then place the rest as soon as I can get them in.

THIS DOES NOT MEAN that I'm done with interviews, that anyone is disqualified or that I'm trying to be a grench about things. I'm trying to make sure the best people for the job are going to be doing that job. I'm looking to get 24/7 coverage with time for each to have a life and time for themselves.

ALL GM's WILL BE EQUAL... the first ones in doesn't make them any better than anyone brought on board later. Each one has a special gift or talent they bring to the table and they can then rely on the other gm's where ever their weaknesses may lay.

So now if anyone has any questions or any complaints-- I have an open door policy and people you can report me to as well.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm working as hard, fast and best as I can. I appreciate the patience and understanding of the community as I try to get settled in. It won't be much longer and I won't be the only GM.

oogs

EDIT: Also been tryign to weed through and interview over 32 applicants now.

Trying to get a GM book ready complete with layovers and quest walk throughs.

So I've not exactly been idle ]]> oogie http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/oogie/32-player-information.html http://www.endless-ages.com/blogs/oogie/31-computer-problems.html Thu, 26 Jun 2008 10:56:10 GMT I hate to do this but I'm basically going to be AFK all day trying to staighten out my main computer. All my songs, my pictures and everything was on it. I didn't back it up-- head/desk.

The darn thing booted up like I just got it out of the box. So now I get to spend ever how long it takes to make it right and find my goodies again.

IF anyone needs anything or there is a big problem, I'll try to check my pm's and stuff today. Until then though-- I'm working on a personal frustration brand of computer.
