The
Ryzom Community Forum announces
Ryzom Forge, a "collaborative
project" to update Ryzom, jumping on the open-source release of the source code
for the MMORPG
over four years ago. They
lay out a roadmap for creating an improved version of the game, and also explain
how those who are interested in this community project can participate. Here's
what they hope to accomplish:
- The first step (on going), the simplest, is to
enrich available apartment items.
- The second step (also ongoing) is to take
advantage of the mastery of adding objects to create new equipable items.
- The third stage, more elaborate, and also
requiring a good deal of work on the tribes "level design" side, will be to
create new weapon patterns available through tribe rites.
- The final stage, called New Zone project will be
the creation of a new game area.
