TMW uses 2D graphics and aims to create a - large and diverse interactive world. It is licensed under the GPL, - making sure this game can't ever run away from you. - - The project includes the development of both a client and a server, - as well as the development of an online world. At the moment we're - making alpha releases of the client, while our server is in early - development. The eAthena free software Ragnarok Online server is used - until our own server has matured enough to replace it. Once ready, - we'll be making releases of our server too so anybody will be free to - set up their own server and start building their own online world. + ##2Aethyra (Ae)##P Aethyra is a 2D MMORPG, using the eAthena server + (an open-source clone of the commercial Ragnarok Online server). It + features expanding lands and community-made graphics, making for a + fun, free, open source community project. + + ##PAethyra started out as "The Mana Experiment," an experimental + test-server for community-developed content designed for The Mana + World which was put into action by Blame, Sanga, and Sertaline. + ##PSoon thereafter, it became evident that it was taking far too + long for the elitist development team at The Mana World to + implement good tested-content. They made excuses and treated the + long-awaited custom server TMWServ as the answer to all the problems, + and left the eAthena server (which The Mana World still runs on) + to rot. Many development team members lost interest in helping, and + the programmers forsook the eAthena server saying that it would + simply delay TMWServ progress for months to fix the simplest of + errors. In response to this, The Mana Experiment became a fork + project, and an official game server. + ##PTime passed, and more and more content was tested and implemented. + Soon, discussion began for a name. Aethyra was chosen, and the Game + you see now was setup. Content development has never been better, and + the staff never more motivated! Stay on the lookout for more exciting + Aethyra developments! + +##3 === Aethyra's Goal === + + ##PAethyra is a community driven experiment that utilizes eAthena at + its core with the end goal of getting its players as involved in the + process as much as possible. It's originally forked from The Mana + World when its developers came up with the idea of "Why should we + have to wait for an MMORPG game in development when we've already got + a great server setup here that does everything we've been promised + and more?" ##P As such, we are trying to implement as many functions + of eAthena as possible while creating our own in the process based + on what our players want to see. diff --git a/data/help/changes.txt b/data/help/changes.txt index 8b47cc9c..eb25c86d 100644 --- a/data/help/changes.txt +++ b/data/help/changes.txt @@ -3,70 +3,5 @@ ##3 === RECENT CHANGES === -
