I'll give you a quick overview of who I am and my history.
So I am Victor, 26 years old, Swedish and I got in to the OT community 15 Apr 2005 and quickly started hosting servers.
The first few servers I had was survival OTS together with a guy named Alex.
Later on I started mapping and making my own custom OTservers together with lots of people.
To name a few I've worked with over the years: Jiddo, SuperGillis, Ond, Stian etc etc.
About 4 or 5 years ago I started working on a custom OTserver based on 8.5 that I revamped to 7.4 features.
That server was named Nevila. The biggest issue I've had is that I am a I want it and I want it now person. I haven't really been giving a lot of advertisement time to my servers. Some has been great success while others has died out. Nevila was hosted for about one and a half years before finally brought down. It probably took about a year after Nevila went down until I started the project Celestia. The Celestia project was created and later Ond joined as a coder/scripter. This time I started mapping and then added parts of Nevila (far from everything) to the map. Celestia was online back in august 2014 for a few months and was greatly appreciated. But being a lowrate server teams of PKs found their way in and got players to quit which lead to the server finally dying out.
Upon demand of the public I recently reopened Celestia. However people have been complaining about that there is actually newer graphics than what 7.4 had which, even though the server is 7.4 features, makes it feel less of an oldschool server. Therefore I have decided to start this project.
This project will be completely based on the real 7.4 engine and graphics.
So far I've revamped perhaps one 10th of the Celestia map to 7.4 style and will continue to do so until it's completely revamped.
All quests, spawns, NPCs will be revamped to work in a proper manner.
If you wish to watch as I map, which I tend to do a lot, go to my twitch channel
What features does the server offer so far?
- All common features for 7.4
- Task System [not decided if to use or not]
- Dynamic Quest System [not just straight loot a chest quests]
- Few custom items that allow 50% faster skilling for 15 minutes
- TibiCAM which allows recordings of gameplay
- Custom monsters and sprites that works with the 7.4 environment
- In-game sounds such as music for different zones (towns, dungeons etc)
- Blacksmithing & Mining - This has a lot of controversy and is hard to decide what should be craftable. Need more inputs on what you think about this.
We are currently looking for almost every field for the project except for hosters and gamemaster.
Server is hosted on proper dedicated servers by a company and gamemasters isn't something that's needed right now.
If you wish to be a part of Celestia 7.4 project please provide your:
- Age
- Skills (LUA, C++,PHP etc)
- How would you like to join? Would you like to be a part but just casually? or would you like to be a "fulltime" member of the team?
Hopefully you liked it and perhaps you will even be able to contribute in the making of the server or perhaps later on play here.
Added a mapping thread which can be found >>here<<
