Mirrors Online August Update
The development of the Mirrors Online PW is progressing nicely. Our writers are making great headway with the conversations, which is arguably one of the more time consuming parts of development. In addition, we are tidying up loose ends and a few missing pieces on the first sector of the module, while adding more quests to it. Our first sector mockup only has a few key areas left to be completed, but it’s likely we’ll be reworking parts of it to cut down on the number of areas.
On the scripting side of things, we are currently building a framework for dynamically equipping NPCs (and monsters), and looking into how to implement treasure drops more like in PnP, where the monsters hide most of it in their lairs, or actually use the items they have. Lastly, the custom content manager we have been working on is just about done code wise, the only thing left to do is skin the GUI then iron out any bugs. If you would like to find out more about project development please check out our News and Updates thread.
Mirrors Racial Lore
In July we kicked off our “Racial Tuesdays”. Every Tuesday we will be adding racial lore entries to our website. We are starting with the three races that make up the Taumur alliance:
Elves - discussion thread can be found here.
Dwarves – discussion thread can be found here.
Gnomes - discussion thread can be found here.
Check out the lore entries and let us know what you think!
Please visit our forums and stop by and say hello. We have a thriving community of developers and fans and invite you to give us a look . We have very high expectations and standards for the Mirrors Online project. If you would like to find out more about opportunities to join our team you can view our current list of open positions here.
