What would you add in an client if you had it open-source?
What would be great?

Something like talking not typing?
Any ideas post them!

More automated events, but that's probably not what you meant. :lol:

And yes, a teamspeak option would be nice. :)

OpenGL instead of DirectX, Why? Because that would make it able to make a Mac version easier.

It depends. If the 3D engine handles both the Os it'll be up to the dev to port the client to other OS.

This true but I did find some good engine.
Crytech 3 engine.
I even was able to get it free.
But we can't use it here since we need to be a company.
(It's handy to go to an school that does design/game design stuff ^^)
idk if it's useable on mac though

You can try to send them an email but we should avoid some legal issues the more we can ;)
It seems it's "only" console and Windows:

Though we have to see also if it's adapted to MMORPG (maps and so on) and to Rose. No need to have a "state of the art" 3D engine just to display 1 mesh and simple DDS textures ;) That would be quite a waste :lol:.
Or it's Rose "2" with Pysics and stuff like that, that would be fun too but would mean a lot more work.

I know more special effects and better sounds and so on.
But we can use the engine because it's loads and loads better and you will get a really good MMORPG out of it. (only it will look like Rose but than with 10 times the graphics XD
recreating the maps will take hours, but with atleast 10 people doing so it will go really fast and we have some high quality stuff that can be used for over the next 10 years.

I got no problem with that :)

Anyway if the client has source, other people can choose to just change the 3D engine for something else. All the rest (AI logic, map loading, items and stuff loading) would remain the same.
