that is fine and all, but I would still rather have more monster combination's with different appearances. Not sure if the pro version comes with more than just dragon and golem, but there really isn't an easy way to add custom sprites which would be a godsend if there was an option for it.

I would pay just for the option of not having all the different body parts.

The standard Pro version comes with a total of 10 different monsters (4 base and 6 combination monsters) There is also an addon pack with another 10 different monsters (4 base and 6 combination).

The end user customisation has been a core feature of Forumon from the beginning, so we won't be changing the system away from the current method, sorry.

Im having a problem with the worldmap.

When I select the towns/cities on the worldmap they show up completely different than where I intended. (look at attachments)

They seem to show up about 230 pixels higher than where I put them in the admin section.

Any thoughts as to how this could occur? As you see them in the worldmap is the lowest I can place them, but I want to place them lower than that, which is impossible...

[DragonByte Tech]

That's a known issue with certain skins that are being coded incorrectly, please switch display methods in the world map options so that the towns appear on the bottom, beneath the map.

Sorry for the inconvenience

So what did I miss ?

There's no selectable monsters for your starter monster. Please contact an RPG Administrator. Go Back.

I figured it out, go here yourdomain.com/forums/forumonadmin.php


I also get this error after I choose a monster and clicks the save button

Could not find phrase 'dbtech_forumon_monsterchosen'.

Also I cannot see the monster pictures on the monster profile page or when I'm making the monster. Once this is fixed and I have tested it more I might purchase your full version.

[STORMS]

I'll consider installing/modding this game when some people can verify that it is working 100%.

I am running 4.0.7.

Thank you.

Just going to say, i forgot to go to forumonadmin.php and chmod the files in the readme but all sems to work so far but i wished there was a working example supplied to get you going.

That's not really a problem, it's just a missing phrase.

Please edit and save each starter monster to rebuild its image.
