Yeah, PSO is the best game out for the PS2, & I belive one of the best games every created. It is supposed to rank right up there with EQ & Morrowind. I hear they are planning a PC port, but its not going to be as good as the GC or XBox version.
If you have an XBox, dont buy this game unless you have XBox live, it wont run. If you play the GC version, you may want to buy either an import keyboard, or some kind of a USB adapter for one of you USB keyboards, so you can type in things & talk to players online.
I still need to try online mode, but I hear there is a big risk involved to play online, a server crash can me one of 3 things...
1. You loose the data from the last point you saved
2. You loose all of your items on your player
3. You loose all data on the character you were playing online (full character delete.)
I also hear that there are some hackers who have the ability to delete your characters.
But yeah, ill give that 3DS Max thing a try, what is soft image exactly, & how would I do the water part? Should I make 2 models, one of the solid walk on map, & another that would be the model?
And I may come back & ask some questions after I have the model made (like particle effects for variouse things,) how to do collision on a .x model, how to make my max water model invisible, so it looks like that water, how to do that kind of waterfall, & how to get the co-ordinates of the world, so I can set the player spawn point.
Thx,
