The Mana World 0.0.24 (Default branch) |
|
|
The Mana World (TMW) is a serious effort to create
an innovative free and open source MMORPG. It uses
2D graphics and aims to create a large and diverse
interactive world. The game aims to be a unique
place for people to interact not only by fighting
each other but to play life, form a community
within the community, or just simply chat.
Although the game is never-ending and a linear
story cannot be applied, it should have enough
background to describe and predefine tribes,
kingdoms, and the environment overall. Fullfilled
quests should lead to certain events depending on
them being solved. Quests should also encourage
teamwork.

Changes:
This version comes with many requested features
like the ability to define your own key settings,
better handling of connection loss, trimming of
chat messages, resizable buy/sell dialogs, and a
lot of bugfixes. Other notable additions are
support for female-specific hair styles and
XP-gaining notification. On the technical side of
things, this version brings support for dynamic
sprite recoloring (currently only used for the
different hair colors), and loaded resources are
now no longer instantly thrown away when no longer
used, which should reduce hiccups due to resource
loading.
