Mirage Source

Hey all, i'm new here. I downloaded Mirage Source two days ago and I have been fiddling around with it for a while. This is the first engine i've used so I don't really know where to start with it. I understand a lot of it because I know VB from reading books and i'm in a course at school but it would be really helpful if someone could post a tutorial on where to begin with Mirage or even just a few words of advice.

Thanks guys, you seem like a really nice bunch of people from all the posts i've read so far.

Well the best approach... and i know this may not sound to great. Is to go through and just try stuff out.

Basic packet structure is another great place to start. Just look at how the packets are sent back and forth between the client and server.

Ultimately the more you look through the code and make hands-on tests, the better you'll get at it, and the more you'll understand.

Don't be afraid to "break" the game, because you can always just restore backups. And it'll also help you understand what works and what doesn't, and how to correct errors.

I just learned first by messing around with small stuff, like changing the gui. Then I started adding tutorials and trying to understand what they did. That helped me learn MS and VB.

If you have a problem, try figuring it out yourself, or search on Google. Once you've done that, if you still can't find the answer, you can post here.

Ok, so i'l keep on messing around. So far all I did was change the GUI a bit and edit the login screen with a few small features and some gfx. I'l have to look into learing about the packets as well.

And how do you restore a back up?

you zip up your source, make some changes, then unzip the backed up source overwriting your screwed up version.

Yeah trying stuff is your best way to learn through experience.

Also im working on an Offline Game Editor that lets you edit lots of aspects of the game... should help new people plus you wont have to be on your server to edit the game.

I know this is probably a noob question but I can't figure it out. How do you tile a map ? I tried a bunch of different things but to no avail. Google didn't shed any light either. A simple hint would help me out a great deal.

And some of the editors don't work like frmMapItem and frmNpcEditor, is that just something I might have done or something I didn't do thats causing it not to run?

Sorry about all the questions, I hate being that noob but i'm trying. Thanks for all your help so far.

you know how to make yourself admin by changing account setting in server fodler right?



well commands are

/mapeditor
/editnpc
/editshop
etc

I really think should add admin panel to the next ms build

You have to make yourself an admin first

Miss dont make him ask. Goto your server and in the accounts folder edit your account name

I got all that down and I got some npcs on the map but I don't know how to replace the black with tiles.

Its very difficult. First you have to click on a Tile on the Mapeditor, then you need to click on the map, then you need to press send

Make sure the properties window isn't open when you're adding tiles .

<---Feels like an idiot.

I thought it was a lot harder than that for some reason.


Thank you .
