AOT Project – Built from Scratch, Based on BlackTek!

[Felipe93]

Hello!


After running AmiroTS ARC (8.60, OTS 0.4) for some time, I've decided it's time to take things to the next level. I’m excited to announce a brand-new project that will be a completely fresh rebuild, designed to be more modern, dynamic, and immersive. This new OTS will be built from scratch, taking inspiration from the original but improving on every aspect, from engine to gameplay.

Who Am I?​

I've been on OTLand since 2008-09, and I’ve always enjoyed working with 0.4. I still actively run AmiroTS ARC and have no plans to abandon it. This new project is something I’m developing as a side project in my free time, balancing my work at the hospital with my passion for game development.

What's New?​

Engine Upgrade – Instead of relying on TFS, this project will be based on BlackTek (GitHub Repo), ensuring better stability, security, and scalability.


Tibia 10.98 Support – Moving away from 8.60, this new version will support Tibia 10.98, providing a more modern experience with enhanced mechanics and smoother gameplay.


Custom Map from Scratch – No recycled content! We are designing a brand-new world, completely unique, with fresh cities, dungeons, and quests tailored for exciting exploration and adventure.


Small but Dedicated Team – This project consists of only two people: myself, handling everything from coding to systems, and a dedicated mapper who is crafting the entire world from scratch. Because of this, it’s a long-term project, but one we’re deeply committed to.


Community-Driven Features – This thread is the beginning of an open discussion. I want to gather feedback, ideas, and suggestions to shape this OTS into something special. What do you want to see? What features should be included or avoided?


Open to Contributors – If anyone is interested in helping out with the project, whether through scripting, graphics, or other contributions, feel free to reach out!


Regular Progress Updates – As development continues, I’ll be sharing screenshots, changelogs, and sneak peeks to keep everyone engaged.

How Can You Get Involved?​

If you want a taste of the style and gameplay we’re aiming for, you can check out my currently running AmiroTS ARC and its Wikipedia. Feel free to test it out to get an idea of the vision behind this new project.

This is just the start of an exciting journey, and I’d love to hear from all of you! Drop your thoughts, feature requests, and any feedback you have. Whether you played AmiroTS ARC before or are new to my projects, your input is invaluable in making this the best OTS experience possible.

Why not talk with the Black Tek developer to create a sub-repository within their project instead of starting a new one? I’m not trying to be negative, but initiatives like this can divide the community. Besides the map and the protocol, what would be the differences between this repository and Black Tek?

This is not a repository, this is an open tibia server based on black tek as a base. When black test is updated, we update.

Sounds fantastic! Always happy to see server projects utilizing BlackTek and leveraging its features! I wish this project all the prosperity it can bring! Custom map from scratch is hard to do, but well worth it in the end, IMO, keep up the hard work!
