The Genecys Project is proud to announce the second alpha release of the Genecys client and server engine, genecys-0.2.
The Genecys Project's goal is to create a massively multiplayer online RPG that is completely free to play, and run a server for.
This alpha release is playable, and online functionality is working. However, most advanced functionality is not there yet. At this time, players can log on to a server, walk around, chat with one another, and interact with items on a limited basis.
Major changes since 0.1:
* Added metaserver
* Redesigned event core, event system is much faster, and more versitle
* Added a bunch of new objects, and animated NPC's
* Added tiling of maps, to allow larger gameworlds
* Added new communication commands, shout and whisper
* Integrated FreeSOLID, and redesigned collision engine to be much faster. FreeSOLID is now build automatically, and does not need to be compiled and installed externally.
* Much improved build system.
* Lots of bugfixes, and other minor improvements.
