Seems this game is abandoned.. If I'm incorrect, please let me know.
Multiple attempts to play the game, but always end up with the server check failing.
like a vilhena
im sorry but i have to say it....congratulations
Does not install anymore. Some server error.
That's finally fixed.
I wonder why they don't update the Desura page. The website was updated this month!
you should make a free game like runescape but offline and online and doesnt require net frame word 4.0,4.4 please! and how do i make games do i have to be a certain level or you cant?
This doesn't require .NET framework... in fact, neither does RuneScape. RS is written in Java, and the Java Virtual Machine is far, far superior to any programming framework Microsoft has ever touched.
Also, PlaneShift is open source (or 'free as in freedom', if you prefer that terminology) so you can actually look at the source code and send your improvements to the developers. You can even take it and build your own project from it.
Anyway, programming is hard, but if you want to get started I'd suggest the Ruby programming language. There's a bunch of great books and tutorials for it, but if you want a hands on approach look up 'TryRuby'. Definitely my favourite programming language and I'm not alone - it's in the top 10 most popular despite had almost no promotion from corporate entities whatsoever.
I recommend python. You can write a great variety of apps using it. Many game engines use python.So youcan write games too. Web apps can be written with python using Django. Companies like google use python so python can help you in your career. I suggest you go to codecademy.com Its simply brilliant.:)
das pretty dang awesome!
