Hello,

However, team members are welcome.
No technical support is required.

I would be happy if you could let me know which systems you would like to see in the game, as well as any other suggestions for improvements.
Of course, the design is not yet complete.


Thanks,

swapped the font engine to - freetype, linux works now, still ugly but font caching is now integrated, better performance with outline activated.

Show Spoiler

Fixed now - math changes + Realtime Changes

Show Spoiler

+ ui resizing with text

not even that ugly, I kind of like it

Update:
MSAA/AA Gameslider + real-time update
Better Visuals - edges and blurred textures + Textures enhancment with python scaling -Magick.

Show Spoiler

Ranking points system
The ranking point system isn't a big deal, but I think a certain reward and a vertical mission is pretty cool.

Show Spoiler

Performance optimization for many draw calls + particle
The lag at Metin Spawn was reduced as much as possible. 80 stones + /weak

Show Spoiler

Fullscreen is now BorderlessWindow, more modern then fullscreen.
Teleport is now instant, no real loading time + caching activated with .mpc

If you have any more optimization ideas that would improve the FPS, I would be delighted to hear them.

Textures have been improved again with Magick. Metin stones have new textures.
First-person view has been improved.
I don't know where I got the maps from, they were still on my home server, thanks to the creator.
Next step: Dynamic light for Trees, if you have some tipps for that i would appreciate.

Client size still 1.1GB.

Shaders have been integrated. MSAA has been expanded and replaced with FXAA. Significantly better performance.

I am working on Bloom and a way to incorporate SSAO or HBAO.

So far:
Brightness Contrast Saturation
Filter
FXAA
GLOW
Sharpness
Vignette
Edges

[Nermin]

It was complex, but shaders are now much cleaner. Fonts remain unaffected, MSAA is possible alongside FXAA.
RAM consumption is significantly lower than before. 500MB to 400MB with 1024x textures.

Sectree fix, entity performance boost and alot of old Server Source fixes and remakes.
Client packer now works multithreaded, all cores are used. 3GB pack with z level high takes: 5 seconds.

PVP Elo system - Work 60%
1v1 cross channel & core
There are LP points for wins and minus points for losses, who would have thought.

Monthly reset
First place always gets a reward.

Planned:
Each empire has a first place, which becomes the ‘monarch’ and is also reset monthly.

Once everything is implemented, I will work on the GK system for TDM - Last Man Standing, etc.
If you are interested, please let me know. I would also be willing to sell it.


What else is new:
Client performance optimised, draw calls made more uniform, CPU load significantly reduced when there are many monsters. from 100 stones + /weak 50fps to around 80fps.

Happy New Year.
