Re: Free Shard Developers, what motivates you to develop and operate a shard?

I used to love learning to code coupled with a passion for the zuluhotel world I used to play on :). Yet, at the end of the days, it was for "my" players. Cheers all :) Note: Austin made a good point. I remember some very, very old posts on our yahoo channel arguing about going open source...

Re: Account.txt Delete.

As far I remember, POL creates bak files. On loading, the server will prioritize the bak file instead of txt file. Dyniak, close the server. Once you feel safe doing so, zip your current data folder THEN remove all .bak from your folder ( after making a safe backup ). Restart POL with the desired ch...

Re: Complete Auction System

Yukiko, here are some explanations that I though would be necessary considering all the work done by previous developpers including but not limited to Austin. At first, I didn't develop my profect to be the Official Distro. That's why I took off all the comments from scripts. Today, I understand the...

Re: Complete Auction System

That's because they replaced the official distro with some 'new' files.

See if the file on https://github.com/polserver/Distro/tre ... scripts/ai is working.

Re: A good zuluhotel server

Not sure why you're wasting time to convert everything to 099 as everything was already done by our team a while ago. Just take a look at the official distro rep, ... Customize it as you want, you'll get faster to the things you want done... Enjoy!

Re: Announcing the alternate Distro

Just a though I had in mind a while ago..: Why don't you go with an official POL Server? It's an interesting way to keep players enjoying our features while pointing out what POL can do to possible new developers.

Re: Yukiko's Alt Distro - centos testing

Honestly, I'll suggest you to use the https://github.com/polserver/poldistro/tree/master/releases/099/Distro version. You'll end up with a playable set of scripts that you can easily modifiy if you want. The other version is an incomplete, still nice exemple, of what you can do with POL while my ver...

Re: Yukiko's Alt Distro - centos testing

Are you using the official but now unofficial distro 099?

Have a look at Distro/pkg/items/magicBooks/book/OnInsert.src

You might not pass the check within the script and that explains the error you receive.

If you want a full spellbook use text command: .spellbook

Re: POL 099 mechanics overview

The Distro099 is your option. I'm sad they removed it from the main download page, but you may find the package somewhere around. You'll have plenty of fun that's sure.

I just noticed they removed my title. With humility, I am the Distro Developer without removing credits to the others prior me.

Re: staff tools for pol99

in-game, say .cmdbar and see in the header of your screen. You should find a command bar which will help you find all the text commands.

Re: staff tools for pol99

The command bar in the top screen has replaced dundee's other hand. Personaly, 3rd party tools became obsolete since the creation of the command bar. Still, you could always attach a use script to a weapon which would then open the command bar if it's really what you're looking for...

Re: POL 099 mechanics overview

Long time no see! Concretly, the distro is based from an old scriptset called Zuluhotel. We have been running the Zh server since 99. That represents about 9000 registrations over the years, and some peak of 200+ players online. So yeah, the systems are very well balanced. Obviously, we had success ...
