I've noticed a lot of servers lack many quests or contains quests where you have to get from point a to point b just by running through monsters.
Where are all the thematic, tactical, and entertaining quests like the Pits of Inferno, The Inquisition, and The Wrath of the Emperor?

Can we start a new trend by making quests where people can upload/download and implement into their server?
I'm sure this will help servers be more entertaining and have more things to do.

Would anybody be willing to do something like this?
If I made a couple of quests and upload the maps/scripts, would anyone use it?
I don't want to waste my time mapping and scripting something that nobody is going to put in their server.
 
I Would :)

People will probably hate and say things like don't do it, let them do it themself etc...

But i like the idea.
Gl. ;p
 
Well, I'm usually against the idea of charging people for my works, I've never sold OT material before.
But if I have to, then I guess I will... But just for maps and scripts, I don't see it worth more than 5 bucks or something.
So why not just share it? Did Remere make his mapeditor so you can make money off of maps? No.
 
I think it would ruin the ot community that little bit more. Think about it the only thing that makes a good ot different from a download and run ot are the custom maps and quests. If we make it so people can just download awesome quests then we're promoting download and run servers.

Yes, it's way better to fuck up the community by selling theses scripts.
Well, back in the days, everyone released everything, and the community was great, until... the shop system or as some people might call it "the donations" appeared.
 
So far, it seems like I should NOT release anything AT ALL?
 
In case you or anyone else didn't notice, I was being sarcastic.
I think you should release the scripts, although just give them away without any instructions so people without any knowledge learns something :p
 
Every decent server should have its own map, history and quests.

Why should we promote non-decent servers?

I agree with BigB, instead doing this, why don't you join a team.

Time factor.

I tend to make quests whenever I have free time. When I work with a team, I can't promise I'll get something done in time.
 
Instead of just making quests to release why not just download a server and peice it together over time. If you include everything with the quests. . .npcs, scripts and maps you could have a server better than evolutions ever was in no time. Then release it in such a way that you cant switch it from an rpg server. If we can make people start liking the rpg side of ots again the community will flourish like it once did. If we cannot get that to happen the community is where it is now forever.
