The Cosmos Dream now open!

Posted by James (played by jamerson) January 19th 2018, 7:43pm
After many all-nighters pulled by Jake and James, we now have a functional Dream open for the public to RP in!

Find us in Imaginarium, or by dream URL: furc://thecosmos

New Patch Art (By James)!
  • The OOC area has a nice new shallow water area reflecting the depth of space up above! It has spongerock islands that float in this shallow water, and a fading ripple effect when you walk around on the water. There are panoramas and seamless edges so there's no dark space inflicting on your view!
  • The Arrival area is what we imagine the arrival planet Tuphon would look like! Desolate and waterless, no character would want to be trapped there for long! It also features rocks and an expansive panoramic view of the endless desert, along with mountainous rocks at the base.
  • New Marbled/skin and buttons! Featuring some icons too!

New RPR website/lore!
  • Catastrophie made the beautiful CSS for the group, who is also constantly adding more features!
  • The lore has been written by Alfrodull, who developed all the planets and native species, and expanded the functions of government!
  • The dream concept and base RP function/design has been by me, James, with help from Penumbra and Lune! Also wrote the Character Limitations and such on the pages! Still looking for feedback on that, so feel free to whisper me, James, in game if you have concerns or could see improvement!

Some amazing and innovative DS features (made by El Furriando / Jake) to make roleplaying easier include:
  • Map buttons and code:
    • Click map to open the areas and auto-warp there if you click
    • Diamonds are color coded to give you a quick sense of how many people are in each area!
    • Red diamond means lots of people, green means some people, grey means no players!
    • If you click the diamond, you can easily see which players are in that area!
  • Faction buttons and code:
    • The new faction button has a menu drop down, and you can easily set a faction for yourself!
    • When people look for RPers they'll easily see what kind of general niche your character will fill for their RP, if they need to form a new team for a particular plot!
    • Factions include: Explorer, Defender, Techs, Medics, and Merchants!
  • Seeking RP toggle
    • Easily show people you're willing to RP! It automatically includes your Faction too!
    • If people abuse the toggle there's DS to help make sure they stop for awhile so that our Rp list stays somewhat accurate.. and speaking of that...!
  • RP List button
    • Now you can see when people have added themselves to the RP list, LIVE! The numbers to the left update automatically when people toggle that they're Seeking RP!
    • Clicking the RP list button shows a full list of the people who've indicated they wanna RP, where they're at, and their faction!
    • If people who're on the RP list enter a private area, such as a private room, this system will automatically remove them from the list so they don't have to worry about that!
    • And to complement that, when you've re-entered a public area it auto-adds you back to the RP list! It also remembers to add you back to the list if you leave the Dream.
It's been an amazing group effort so far, and we're excited to see what comes out of it RP wise for Furcadia's RP base! We hope you feel welcome, and let us know if there's any feedback you have! See you on the other side, future space-farer!
