Please, come and help me test a new MMO Project I'm creating for Portfolio

Hello everyone, I'm here to invite you all to see my new MMO Project that I am creating for my Portfolio using the Unreal Engine 5.

The game is 3D but the pacing and combat style is heavily inspired by Tibia/Runescape (slower compared to modern MMOs).

Launcher Download Link:
MMOLauncher.rar (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dz8VPO0-zDDw9hlR-tRnxSZ8-RsMUjjb/view?usp=share_link)

To create your Account:
You can create your Account from the Launcher itself, you don't need to use a real email for now (just make sure it has more than 5 digits).
PIN has to be a 4-digit number, I recommend using 1234 for now since this is just a test.
Use a simple Account Name or Password for now (Minimum of 5 digits each), every account will probably reset in the future.

How to Play
When you create your character, you will spawn in a beach with a club and a few items, make sure you eat one of your Breads to get the Well Fed buff.
Follow the ingame tutorials and stick to the road to reach the first Town, killing everything on your way there. The combat is slow and punishing, so make sure you heal up in between fights.
Once you get your character going, you will be able to learn spells, improve your skills and acquire professions (called Utility Skills ingame).

Use WASD or your Left Mouse-Click to move, Right-Click to turn the camera and use the Mouse Wheel to Zoom in/out.

"C" = Open/Close your Character information.
"J" = Open/Close your Character Spells.
"B" = Expand your backpack for a better view
"R" or "Shift Right-Click" = Grabs all loot from an open container
"Space" = Jump, be careful with fall damage, it is very punishing.
"Alt" = Display item names, hotkeys, player/mob subclasses, etc...
' = Open/Close Console, only use this if you are familiar with Unreal Engine 5's console commands for clients.

PLEASE, GIVE ME YOUR FEEDBACK IF YOU PLAY IT: ALL FEEDBACK IS WELCOME.

Please, keep in mind that this is a Portfolio Project for now (It would be impossible to make a MMO without some heavy backing).

The Server is hosted in Brazil. There is not much content, but the content that exist is working and is more or less fleshed out.
I haven't worked much in the visuals or optimizations, so avoid playing in the High or Ultra Settings unless you have some killer setup.

If you are curious about this Project, want to talk to me or want to find other people to play it, please feel free to join our Discord at:

Eeer, thanks? I guess? lol

First thing I noticed -> Redlabs Update Utility, nice. xD

--
There is no error messages when creating an account.
I had put abcd (in the pin area), and it wouldn't let me create an account, and I had no feedback to tell me what was wrong.

Being unable to change the graphics options until logged in feels bad.
I'd suggest turning the login and register system into a 'splash screen' type window, or implement some graphic options into this area.

Some typo's in the error messages when logging in with an incorrect account name / password.

The camera rotation is a bit weird.
You can use right click + shift to loot bodies, but not chests. Chests can use the R key tho.

When going into the little building, it's hard to move around, because when your mouse is over the walls it moves towards the walls.
Remembered wasd can be used to move at that point, but still quite annoying.

--
Got to town, and went up in a building onto a balcony and got stuck in an infinite falling animation, and then died after a 30 second timer. xD

But that's about all I had time for.

and here's the white armor. lol

When I closed and relogged, it fixed itself tho.

First of all, thank you very much for playing!!! I appreciate all and any feedback!!

Fixed internally for the next build, thanks!

It is actually possible to right click + shift Chests, but it needs to be done after they have been opened, not the most obvious thing I agree, will probably be changing that.

Yeap, major bug. Has been fixed already though, sorry you had to experience that.

Gonna investigate, thanks for all the feedback!! I really appreciate it!

The game is now hosted on Itch Io!!

There has been a HUGE update on this project, and I also changed its server location from Brazil to US East!! We Brazilians can still play it just fine, but most people will get a much better overall experience and hosting in the US is cheaper for me too!! Lets goooo!!


Side Note: Sorry to keep bumping this thread OTLand mods, if thats not allowed please let me know and I'm sorry.

This is so awesome to see; and is it just you working on it by youself? Absolutely great work!

Hey, sorry you can't play, thanks for trying. Might answer a few things for me?

Did this happen as soon as you opened the game or when you logged into your character?

Do you have a dedicated Video Card or do you use an Onboard? Are its drivers up to date?

@Narg once I logged in, and I only got integrated GPU, Intel® UHD Graphics 630

That might be the reason, but you can try upgrading your Drivers to see if solves anything.

Also, if you go inside the game's folder Data/Application there will be two executables, a normal one and a Vulkan version, you can try running giving the Vulkan a shot, although I wouldn't get my hopes up.

i had this issue before integrated GPU, Intel® UHD Graphics 630 i did just a restart and it worked for me
