I’ve tried Runescape once though I didn’t like it too much... but a text version of it would be SO COOL. Good luck making it! :D

you dont have to pay to play.You can pay for upgraded things like the best sword sheild etc.

dont worry,when my version comes out,it will be free.

The ! mean the variables are empty. They may be defined but have no contents.

was that a long time ago? runescapes been redone and looks really cool now (you can still play 'RS classic' though), my game TBC is atm very similar to runescape, and if the offer is still their, i would join you, in making your runescape game. :D

I signed up yesterday at my library where we get hour-long sessions. I started halfway through that session, and spent 20 mins playing the damn tutorial. So I only got like 5 minutes playing the actual game. It looks fun, but I just don't know where to start!

i'm in the middle of making a proper manual for the game. if you click on the world map at the top, check for lumbridge (where you start), al'kharid (in the dsert) and varrock (the really big one). if you follow the map to go north then east then south to al'kharid, find the silk trader and buy some. then go to varrock and sell them in the general store. it gets repeatative but gets you money for nothing (even with no skills).

next you should work on trade skills. mining is pretty good, go west out of varrock and travel pass the barb village then go north-west. go into the mountain to the dwarven miines, mine what ever you can (copper and tin to start) and then leave and go south-west in to falador. there is a furnace there where you can turn ores to bars, then go back to varrock and find an anvil, you'll need a hammer as well. turn the bars into stuff and sell them in the general store or sword shop etc.

sorry thats at lot to read but you'll be making money pretty quickly like this. hopefully my manual won't be long :)

I started to make a guide for rune, but i got disintrested in the game and found a much better one:

http://www.loradon.com

Its got really bad graphics (2d sprites) but its the way i like it (sort of like snes,which is probably the best console nintendoo ever made, though many people have said no,but anyway).

Skills are the same a rune (sort of) but the whole game is just better.
The comunity is smaller so everyone knows everyone.The game is constantly improving and its just overly better.

sorry i got carried away. :D

thanks for your help elexxorine. But I an't really be bothered. It takes to much walking. Do you know a place where I can go mining without getting killed?

go to al'kharid, as long as you don't click on the scorp's by accident you're fine.
