Hi, Vaper. Ok, we will stay on list. Actually, this thread is both computer and stand alone related. As you might have noticed I am doing research for a possible dnd type game engine. I want to try my hand at something far more complex than a simple arcade shooter, side scroller, or even a start to finish fps title. I want something that has story, drama, and of course can be indivitualised when loaded. You might be a wizard, and I might be a ranger or bard. Someone else might select to be a dwarf, elf, barbarian, etc... That in my opinion will keep the game flexable and have replay value for a long time ahead.
