Worlds/Dark Rival

http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/7503/darkrivalnamething5gd.png

The current overworld will be replaced by a larger one soon. It will have more of a square shap, allowing players to roam Dark Rival a bit more. It will also have many more secrets than the current overworld. Eventually, there will be 3 active overworlds, for the three parts of the Dark Rival storyline. We are currently adding features to DR now. Including longer quests for rare items, more exclusive items and games, Auction House, marketplace, and more! There may be some small bugs, if you have any trouble, use the in game bug report system (found in the Player System weapon, under systems), or e-mail Excaliber (the owner) at [email protected]

News:

Dark Rival is trying out for the hosted tab. Wish us luck! We're currently working on a new overworld/gmap. It will be bigger and better looking than the last one. We are currently making the switch to GS2, and I have added new features that make use of this engine, including a better playersystem, better tailor system, and nore. Eventually, all of Dark Rival will take advantage of this new engine. NEW markets! Now players can sell or auction their items. have fun with it ^_^. Now there are 3 different 'camera' modes, chase, 'player' and the normal one. Enjoy! The outfit viewer has now been added, please report any bugs you encounter. We have recently added more events, and the server is now for V4 only (due to the growing number of GS2 scripts). We are also currently adding new weapons and features. Like a new larger quests, rpg style weapons, telescope, CTF, lazer tag, mini games, 3D games and events, nations, instruments, RPG elements, mini games, and more!

About:

Dark Rival first went online July 27th 2005. From there it grew from having around 400 levels to well over 1000 now, and it's STILL growing! Dark Rival remains to be one of the fastest growing servers around! Dark Rival also has some of the most unique elements, including a storyline, weapons, and the general feel that Dark Rival brings to Graal. RPG elements will also soon be added, in the prequel and sequel, as well as weapon skills in the current game. DR offers plenty of jobs, skills, quests, and mysteries for the player to solve. It plays like a classic server, but is much more complex. Dark Rival will continue to grow, hopefully, you can be a part of it!

Story:

Dark Rival is basically a three part story, played out on three different overworlds. So far, only one of these overworlds is near completion, and will soon be replaced by an even larger overworld. This is actually the middle part of the story. You play as yourself in the first part, taking over for a hero who has disapeared. Then you enter a flashback, and play as the old hero, finding out more about the plot. Finally, you team up to defeat the 'Dark Rival' in the final part, introducing new ways of playing graal. After that, it's up to the players to see what direction Dark Rival will go in, as they have to 'rebuild' the world after Ceverous (the Dark Rival) is defeated, and there will be a power struggle for control of the world, as 2 nations fight for control. It's going to be a very realistic, time and player based server, and I hope you can be a part of it!

How to become a good staff member

ALWAYS practice your skills. If yo're an LAT, look at levels other players have made the Graal forums, [1]is a great place to do this. The forums aren't just good for LATs, however, they provide help on scripting, ganis, and gfx. It's a great place to learn, and become a part of the Graal community. I suggest to all current DR staff, and to all potential staff, to take advantage of the forums, Graal Bible, and any other resources they can find to become better developers. If you want to become an Events Team member, or a GP, I suggest asking other Events/GPs on multiple servers about their jobs, what they have to do, and how they became staff. Play on the server a lot, follow all the rules on that server, and play events. Really, this goes for all possitions as well. Get to know the server before you apply. Dark Rival, and the rest of Graal for that matter, is always looking for more developers, and more staff. It's not to hard to learn, so get a jump on it now! I hope to see you as staff on Dark Rival in the future! -Excaliber Owner/Creator of Dark Rival
