Hi there!

I'm looking for stuff for doing a multiplayer online game like maple story.

But the problem is, where could I get these kinds of sprite/charset/whatever?

And do you know with which program they draw these kind of sprites?

Thanks a lot!

 BYOND is a great place to start.

Thanks but, I don't want to make a rpg-like game, but a game like maple story (look at this screenshot http://img173.exs.cx/img173/3661/maple01238ow.jpg )

thanks!

People have used BYOND to make platform-esque games like Maple Story. Your best bet is to follow some tutorials and spend time working on learning BYOND before you get to that point.

The only other option you really have is learning an actual programming language, but I'm assuming you don't want to do that much work. Other than that, BYOND is the only choice I can think of.

Maple Story is such a big game - making something like it is not going to be easy. Don't try to find an easy way to do it because there is none. But it's certainly possible if you're serious about devoting time to something like that.

Haha wow, I had NO IDEA, users on chara's new of BYOND. All of my friends that use BYOND, make fun of me for using RPG Makers becuase they complain, saying its not real coding when you jsut click buttons when you want somethign to happen..but whatever..It's interesting though.

BYOND isn't real coding either.
It's a bad place to start, because.. you can't learn any actual game making skills from it.
