A whole 12 hours, the horror.

Hey everyone, We just opened up the game to Gold Shinobi an hour ago, and so it's without too much delay I'm posting the link to the installer here! IMPORTANT: Server is down for bug fixing! Download Mirrors Mediafire UploadingIt Mega Google Drive I'll add more information here, but for now take note of these things. [*]Game may be buggy [*]Not much to do but hang out with your admins for now! [*]Iruka Sensei does nothing yet, as we're still creating the mission content. [*]Game may crash occasionally [*]Runtimes are required [*]Konoha can take a few minutes to load as you need to download a large map file! Regards, Rory

Hello everyone! If someone asks you for your game files, make sure to NOT send these. The folders contain a file called "Config.ini", inside of this file is your username and password. If they ask you for your game files, please send them the latest installer again. If that will not work for them, make sure you remove your username and password from the config.ini file first. Should the information fall into the wrong hands, this can mean loss of anything you used the same username and/or password for. Please keep this in mind. In the case of you having sent this information to anyone in the past without knowledge of the risk, it's advised to change the passwords of any accounts you used the same password for. Thank you for understanding, and stay safe! Big letters to catch attention: DO NOT SEND YOUR CONFIG.INI OR GAMEFILES TO ANYONE, THIS FILE CONTAINS USERNAME AND PASSWORD. You can get the current (and latest) version of the installer from the following links (Both are the same file). https://mega.co.nz/#!PRQWkQCA!bSRkKg_R_a-rCU9qAi9O4xB35f1sldiaiH6Vt30ZC8w http://www.mediafire.com/download/cm2yxia3gh3dvnd/Nin+Online+Installer.exe I will try to keep it updated and edit it so that it will remain the latest installer.

I doubt anyone else is going to do this, so I thought I'd be the first to say thank you to the entire staff for all of their hard work, late nights and quick fixes leading up to this initial early alpha release. I personally appreciate each and every one of you guys for continuing this game despite the pressure and stress that most gaming communities bring to developers and staff. I wish nothing but the best to this game in the future and look forward to growing with this game. I'd like to see other people thanking you guys and telling you what a great job you've done but that's not always the case when it comes to everyone attempting to bum-rush there way into the game. Thank you very much! Noimo

What did I just read?

Dear Shinobi, Wow, that was a crazy turnout for just an early alpha release, we were not expecting this. Though it wasn't a smooth alpha test, it was definitely helpful in bringing up a lot of issues that would harm the game long term. I would like to ask for your understanding as we take down the Alpha Test until further notice, when we are able to solve the problem of lag. I'd like to thank everyone for the support despite everything. We might need further help in stress testing the server soon, so please stand by and wait for more information to be released. To sum everything that we've learned from the test in the past few hours. DirectX Setup IssuesScreen Resolution IssuesLag IssueThe most important thing we tackle now is solving the lag. Whack is going to spend some time figuring it out, so give us your support! We will learn from what we did wrong today and try harder to push for much more professional and well-organized events in future as well. From the top of my head, I'd like to thank everyone who had been actively maintaining order on the shoutbox for me, in many cases, helping other players solve their issues and pointing them to the right direction.

Feel free to read it. Welcome, young Uchiha!

Well, i wouldn't call it a book. Japanese Comic, really. I'm pretty sure Rory said RP could extend to however much you want it to. You can get through chuunin with no RPing, there's no admin saying "Did you just call him bro?! People don't say Bro in Naruto you fucking noob, now get out of my game,". You don't have to talk to your chuunin teamates with -kun at the end. If you just want to PvP, you'll be able to play the game. You might have to get through the awkwardness of someone emote hugging. I've seen it. If you've played GOA, then you know some of the "politics" that were included in Villages(Factions, Kage Voting, Exiles, Village Hate), so i'm guessing at most you'll have to bear through that. @Toshio Just because someone doesn't want to create a backstory for a character in a game; doesn't make them illiterate, it's just their personal preference. I, for one, am not going to be making an extensive backstory to explain why I do anything. Not because I can't, because I don't want to.

Damn LOL People are in an uproar about the game not being able to come out for unforeseen events. Do something else, have some patience, go enjoy the outside world for a little while, take a nap. I donno. lol

Hey everyone, I've decided to give some information on the system I have planned for things like the Chunin Exams. This is not a entirely new concept as I've heard of things like this in other MMORPGs. This system is called Roleplay Events (RPE) The system can be compared to a game of Dungeons & Dragons, where players will play out their character through the actual game rules, while it is being watched over, moderated and led by a Game Master. More information regarding RPE The player must have a Ninja Biography on the forum to qualify for a RPE. Examples of RPE are the Chunin Exams and Diplomacy by the Kage. Permanent death takes place during RPE. About Game Masters There are 2 kinds of Game Masters, which are the Head GM and Village GM aka. Village Elders. Head GM In charge of events and decisions being made that affects the game on a global scale, such as wars & diplomacy. A head GM will only be necessary once we have released Suna. Village GM In charge of internal affairs (of one village) such as giving ranks. He/she is answerable to the Head GM. About Kages Kages are players who appointed by leaders by the other players through elections. They are in charge of making small and large village decisions. Elections will be held once every 2 months or if a Kage has permadied. The players running for the election will need to be a player who is powerful and well respected by his fellow village ninjas. There will be some minimum requirements before a player can vote for a Kage, these are being registered atleast 2 weeks before the election date, and they have to be at least a level 10 Genin in-game. Kages will have the ability to change their village member's ranks & organization, but he is still a normal player. He is a figurehead, it is a role which comes with plenty of respect but is riddled by risks of permadeath. Kages which abuse power (their actions will be logged for Village GM to look through) will be removed, and banned. They may start a war with any village, but through the discretion of Village GM, who will stop any unreasonable decisions. Permadeath & Permadying Permadeath in Nin Online is not exactly the end for your character. Imagine it as a end for your indentity, but not your character. These permadeath cases will be rare, and only high ranking players will be at a very high risk for this. The system will effective kill your identity, your character will from then on be his own Kin, his son or daughter or a brother etc. as such name change will be required. His items will be passed down as well. As the perma dead characters die, their Kin becomes more willful, and embodies his dreams. Though the characters which permadie will be reset to level 1, they with slightly higher starting stats than a normal character depending on how powerful he used to be, characters who have perma died multiple times will hence be slightly more powerful. To make friendly diplomatic decisions such as forming alliances or settling/ending wars, player Kages must decide decide on a meeting place - preferably & traditionally within one of the villages as a symbol of trust. There, they will discuss and come to a decision which will be executed by the Head GM. How to Start Kages must request a meeting to the Head GM, and then choose a time & date agreeable by both parties and the Head GM. Travelling The travelling/escorting phase of this RPE goes like this.. [*]As this is a dangerous journey to go alone, the Kage should preferably stay away from fighting for himself. He is to find escorts from his most powerful ninja to accompany him for this journey (maximum of 7) [*]Kages may go about this any way they like, without escorts, or even request assistance from other villages to escort them. [*]If players not involved from the village are being annoying, they may be kicked or banned by the GM. [*]If the travelling Kage is killed on the way to the diplomatic meeting, this will be witnessed by the GM who will then determine based on whether any foul play was involved. [*]If the death was fair and it was a planned ambush on the Kage, he will face permanent death. [*]Escorts will not be at risk of Permanent death, but they will be at risk of losing their rank if they fail to protect their Kage. [*]Other players may attempt to overthrow the Kage by force. Assassinations are bound to be attempted. [*]Attempting to kill the Kage so that wars will be prolonged is also an option. [*]The Kages may choose to keep the details of the meeting secret or low profile or change the date and time if they feel it is suddenly too risky. Meeting phase The location chosen as the meeting place can be private. Thus, mostly no external threats will happen from this point on, unless it is badly guarded or planned. Decisions for the diplomacy must take place within the game chat, and both villages should have somebody documented what is said during the meeting. Once the meeting is over, and the decisions are made, Village GM and Head GM will make the necessary changes to alliances, wars, diplomacy. Players should report or announce the news/decisions on the forum. Eventually, there may be individuals or groups of players who want to be "Reporters" and run their own news section. I am all for this! The Kage may allow or forbid reporters at the meeting, and they are not to speak or ask questions unless permission is granted. Ending After decisions have been made and meeting has been called to an end by both Kages. The RPE is over and the Kages are no longer at risk of permadeath. Chunin Exams is a very important and core RPE. It will have a lot of permadeath risks. But at the discretion of the Head GM, if the Chunin Exams has been held poorly, he may decide to call the whole event off. How often is there a Chunin Exam? The Chunin exam will be held once or twice a month by the Kage and Village GMs. How to participate in the Exam? First, you will need to form a team of 3. You must register for the Chunin Exam on the forum, and your account must have made a minimum of 10 posts. Your character must at least be a level 20 Genin to join the exam. You will need to have a supervising Jounin during the event, unless one of the team members is above level 50. If one member of this team is not present on the day of the exam, a replacement is allowed. Registration fee of 10,000 Ryo per ninja in the team is required. The fee should be sponsored by the Jounin supervisor, or can be paid by the Genins themselves. Registration for the Exams will take place 1 week before the actual exam, and the teams applying should work together and practice fighting as a team before taking place in the exam! The exams consist of... Written Test 10 Minutes Not much to explain for this. Forest of Death 20 Minutes (No Permadeath, but Eliminations) Each team will be given a Heaven Scroll or Earth Scroll item which will drop when the player faints. Before they die, they may choose to simply run or surrender the item to the other team. Players may go about this however they like. Teams which fail this round, will be eliminated, hence half of the players or more will not make it past this stage. Once you have both scrolls, you must proceed to the finish point. If a team loses both their scrolls, they may still attempt to ambush other teams to get back the scrolls they need. Medical Ninja will be very important in this round. Preliminaries - 20min - 1hr Finals - 10 - 30min Both the Preliminaries and Finals will be held in different arenas. However, they will happen very similarly. Two ninjas will be pit against each other, they must fight until one surrenders or faints. High level Medical ninja must heal the player if he has fainted. If the player is not healed, he will perma dead. Only the 2 ninjas and the medical ninja will be allowed into the arena. Many possibilities are are available. Obstructing the player who has fainted from being healed is allowed within RPE. However, the player would be subjected to being banished from his village and/or be killed himself during the event. How does the player become a Chunin after the exam? All players who make it to the finals may be promoted. However, the Kage must make the final decision. He may choose any player that he would like to promote, and may hold back any player as well.

Hey everyone, http://www.mediafire.com/?cm2yxia3gh3dvnd Install the game and get online, Nin online is back up and lag free! Credits to Jcsnider from Eclipse Origins community. Regards, Rory

Or.. You could have just posted it here.

Bigger Chat Box Running is togglerabblele ( I think that's the right word) and not Shift. The keys ;-; so sticky! And not through the usual way...

And here i thought i won't be able to play this game with out lag today. Good job to the ones who fixed it!

I'll send you the link and the instructions in a message.

Me looking at Rory.

If maps are not loading for you: The first time, and after a map has been updated, it may take up to a minute to download a map. Please be patient, and do not exit if you think it isn't loading. When the loading spinner stops spinning, it is in the final moments of map loading, so do not think it has froze. The map fix thread you see isn't actually a fix, but rather just download the map that you would be downloading if you waited. It's pointless, just wait! If you get an automation error, directx8 missing error, or missing dependency error: You need to install the runtimes. Reinstall the game, and after Nin is done installing, make sure you install the box that pops up called Crystalshire runtimes. If you have a 64-bit system, google how to manually register a directx8 dll file on a 64-bit machine. If you can't see your whole game's screen: The game is 1024x768. My computer screen isn't even that big. Change your resolution to something suitable. Google how if you don't know. If your game screen is messed up, and buttons aren't in the correct spots: Your DPI setting is messed up. Google DPI setting, and change it to the default, or monkey around until you get it to the right one. I can't remember which it is, sorry. I'll edit this when i find out. If you are experiencing extreme lag: This is currently a huge problem we are trying to sort out. It should be fixed soon, and alpha will continue when it is fixed. We are sorry about this problem, we weren't expecting it and it put a huge load of dog crap on our alpha testing.

We know.

Well, I'm sure you guys will find out how to solve all those problems ^^.

True. The purpose of a game is usually to immerse you into a unique world using whatever tools one has at his/her employ. Full Screen often helps. If NerveGear existed though, it would be the ultimate immersion tool (until newer tech is developed) Please grace us with full-screen owners.

Welcome to Ninonline !

I was simply saying in general, obv there are games like that but the majority of them have a full screen option of some sort

To be honest, I think we should focus on different issues for now. There are many other things that should be prioritized.

no, its free for all... but this is just alpha version, the game is still in the process of creation

I'm not sure if it's just me or a bug, but when i log in i get stuck on the loading screen even after i use that map fix. I have to press esc then log in again for it to work and get me in-game.

the table in the room next to the hokages offices isnt solid

same happened to me

I'll post bugs and glitches I find here. http://i.imgur.com/UlwxJSh.png Mapping mistake Also happens in the doors above the ones where you step out of class Also adding some fulscreen option would be nice, I cant see more than few pixels of buttons Maybe post some bugs you guys find here, so dev team has it in one place

Welcome.

I can name several games that can't be played in full-screen. However, I do like the idea of full-screen on this game.

welcome

Can we have a way to make the game smaller, on my computer I can't see the lower half and I can't make the resolution of my screen any bigger x: I hope this can be a possible future update though. edit, though putting the taskbar at the side makes things do-able.

This should be a uchiha guide lol...

Are you going to wipe/reset after alpha?

Didnt event see this topic and iv been in this section alot this looks great, crazy battles going on there unless its a safezone.

Well theres probably going to be a ton of guys in and out, maybe once the game has a proper tutorial, but i highly doubt anyone but gold shinobi will get many awards at the moment.

Well he kinda inherits the bodys abilities so i guess so lmao, what a weird thought to have now im questioning ino racking peoples memories to see any sexual experiences lmao.

I am looking for two individuals who i can rely on in battle and not jeapordize missions with stupidty. This is me basically recruiting for a chuunin team and maybe for later on to. Feel free to message me. Also feel free to use this topic to set up your teams. Roleplaying will require 3 participants. So get your Teams ready train day and night!

cool , good work

Even though it saddens me to say it, programming is just the back-end stuff, like the machines producing Coca Cola. People rarely want to see the machines, they just want to drink the Cola. Much like how people just would like visually appealing previews of apps they wish to download instead of the coding behind it.

Your comment + the Hinata gif .... perfection

ALL FIGHTING IS PVP. Dont know why people dont understand this. When they say RP it means you are acting like your character as far as speech. All fighting is PVP. All fighting is PVP. All fighting is PVP. Do I need to say it again? This has been explained and reexplained countless times. The chuunin rank implies that you are in the Naruto universe. If you don't rp how can you be a chuunin? You're just some guy behind a computer killing things so you don't need the rank.

You need to stop posting and read.

Best post ever... so inspirational, so interesting,it`s like i`m getting touched by an angel. I have never seen a more complex comment in my entire life!

This is usefull link if u dont know what time is it for you: http://www.worldtimebuddy.com/

Yes there is a cool down system Some Jutsus also have a casting time, so you're left vulnerable while casting it.

I understand that this is for later, Rory, but I think there should be : Genjutsus that target someone and genjutsus to use on a wider area (3x3 around the user, cross shaped around the user, 3x3 at a certain max distance away) – to remind you of the feather genjutsu kabuto used in the chunin arenaStunning genjutsus : the opponent(s) can’t move for 3-4-5-6-7 seconds (any more than 7 would be OP I think)Confusing genjutsu : the opponent doesn’t have control over his character for 3 to 5 seconds, during which the character goes berserk : a. He attacks (tai only is better imo) randomly around him, even if it’s “air”; b. He starts attacking the nearest ally, and if there’s no ally near him, he starts moving towards the nearest one (as long as the genjutsu’s still on) to attack him.Invisible genjutsu : same as a hiding spell, but you use it on an opponent – that specific opponent will not be able to see you for a certain time; but I don’t know if it should disappear if you attack him, like with the hiding spell, or if this one should stay anyway until either it goes off, either he manages to land an attackStat-reducing genjutsus, for 30sec-60sec, depends on the power of the jutsu : and could be specialized in a certain stat decrease, or all stats decrease at the same timeDamaging genjutsus = maybe slightly less damage inflicted than ninjutsus of the same level, since a “genjutsu-user” could decrease the opponent’s stats I wanted to know if the jutsus will have something like "speed", meaning that you can avoid it if its speed is low and you see it coming. Or if it will be instantaneous. Also, i hope there are things like cooldowns (not necessarily very long). Because these two will play a major role in genjutsu. And I can always think of new genjutsus
