Happy Belated 3rd Birthday Distant Ages!

Aww, I missed it! It was on August 19th. Oh well. I put it on my calendar so I will remember for next year.

DA Debug Engine 2.6b Has Been Released!

There was a nasty item editor bug that had been there for a long time. I decided that I should fix it, so I did. :)

Same download location as 2.6. (See previous post)

DA Debug Engine 2.6 Has Been Released!

It has been quite some time since 2.5 has been released. Even though 3.0 is on the horizon, I still felt the need to release 2.6 first. It contains several bugfixes that I want to get out there. Basically, most of the network stability issues introduced in 2.5 have been ironed out. In addition, annoying bugs such as the "walking onto players/NPCs from another map" bug have finally been fixed.

Be sure to check out the Version History entry here for more info.

The 2.6 client can be downloaded here.

More info on the up-and-coming version 3.0 can be found here.

Debug Engine 2.5 Has Been Released!

Finally, a new version! :) It's about time.

This version is packed with networking optimizations. All of the data sent from the server to the client is now sent in a "byte array," a format that is many times smaller and faster than the format used before. In addition, both the server and the client have been converted to Sox, a socket system that allows better control over how the data is sent between the server and the client. You should notice faster map switches and, overall, better performance.

Happy 2nd Birthday Distant Ages!

The concept of Distant Ages is now officially two years old! :) That's right, exactly two years ago I decided I wanted to make a game. I started with PlayerWorlds and eventually ended up where I am now. Who brought the cake?

Debug Engine 2.4 Has Been Released!

This release is packed with bugfixes and optimizations. Also, a few stability issues have been addressed that may have been causing the recent server crashes. The spell system has finally been updated for Seamless Mapping. In addition, two more arrow bugs have been identified and neutralized. The shop system has undergone the first of many changes; I removed the tabs which were annoying everyone so much. Unfortunately, all existing shops had to be deleted to accommodate this change.

Debug Engine 2.3 Has Been Released!

This release focuses mainly on graphics. I modified and added all of the RMXP autotiles to the tilesets. I also added 4-frame animation to accommodate the waterfall autotiles. And, as usual, various bugs have been fixed.

Debug Engine 2.2 Has Been Released!

In addition to various bugfixes and small features, version 2.2 adds a lot of changes to protect the work of people editing maps. Players can no longer leave a map they are editing. This includes walking off, warping off, dying, or someone else warping you. Also, players editing maps cannot attack or be attacked. I also made it so only one person can edit each map at a time.

Debug Engine 2.1b Has Been Released!

After a major warp bug in 2.1, 2.1b has been released. It brings with it all of the changes of 2.1, which are mainly bug fixes and optimizations. One of the most important bug fixes is the one which stops you from being able to walk onto a blocked tile from another map. This caused significant mapping issues and I am glad to say that is it practically fixed.

The Shoutbox

I had to disable the shoutbox. Someone kept spamming it with inappropriate links. Too bad, I would have liked to keep it.
