Greetings.
A friend (MarceloP) and I (both graduated in computer science) decided to come back to the Open Tibia Servers scene.
When we last played Tibia we barely knew lua, hehe.
Nowadays, however, we believe we could rewrite the servers / websites.
And that's exactly what we decided to do
We are implementing the game server in C# 7.2 .Net Core 2.0. I shouldn't have to say this, but .Net Core can be ran in Linux, Windows and Mac and it's performant enough to run servers.
We are still studying different technologies to implement the website. ASP.NET is currently the strongest candidate.
We are looking for people to help us
I'm specifically looking for people that can help me understand some kinks of the C++ codebase (the documentation is kinda weak I'm quite out of the loop).
Discord:
Discord - Free voice and text chat for gamers
Github:
GitHub - CoreOpenTibiaServer/CoreOpenTibiaServer
From times to times we'll create a new post in this thread with status updates
Edit:
We have the utmost respect for what you guys (TFS) have accomplished, and we hope to build upon it.
We are not trying to undermine the C++ version nor trying to steal your members / resources (be it time or money).
And we absolutely not saying you guys should stop the development of the C++ version and use C# instead. That would be insane. I'm sure every 4 weeks a new technology is released and someone says we should use it instead. Sadly, its impossible to change to entire codebase to use a new shiny technology.
What we are saying is that we are creating a new implementation in a language that could make the overall development process less painful and more inclusive.
Edit -- Status Updtes:
Revamping server (to C# / .Net Core 2.0) and website
