![]() I'd love to be able to introduce certain prefixes and suffixes based on achievement in the game, as I remember from EverQuest. I actually believe you should be able to expand on your character's name even more with more than just a last name/title change, as is currently possible. ![]() Vikingur wrote:For my own purposes, I suppose I just like the idea of the flexibility it would offer as more often than not I find that after having spent some time on a character I would like to make a small tweak to the name or change it, suppose I have a streak of perfectionism lol. so I see how that might cause problems of verifying the records if a name has been changed.įor my own purposes, I suppose I just like the idea of the flexibility it would offer as more often than not I find that after having spent some time on a character I would like to make a small tweak to the name or change it, suppose I have a streak of perfectionism lol.īut you guys in the trenches are more aware of any issues and technical complications that any proposed solution would entail due to your inside knowledge. But that would still subject everyone else that hasn't taken the time to block said person to a new reign of terror so to speak lol.įor tracking users I would have though you'd have primarily used their login names for the records, but even so there would probably be references to character names within the written complaints etc. should get updated to the new name given that the character references are passed by Id. On the other hand any friends lists, block lists etc. I suppose some people might try to opt for changing their names if they've made a bad name for themselves on the server by bad behaviour etc. I appreciate your having taken the time to add your input to this, and understand where you're coming from. Probably simply graying out characters that are unavailable for name change at the time (according to timestamp), giving an approximation to when next available for namechange on the webpage. Could always have Visual Studio generate list of available characters per user view etc. mvc controller: if available update name (first and/or surname)Īnd that's it, in general. mvc controller: check in DB if name available (+if you want any filtering) ![]() mvc view: form submit (with NameChanger model) Process would probably be something along the lines of the following if using a model in mvc: Just add a DateTime (timestamp) to each character for their last namechange and have a submission form under the user control panel here on this website or somewhere appropriate. And as a C# developer myself I don't think this would be such a great undertaking in general (all things being equal and all that), and would be a very nice addition to the game framework. Though I'm not aware of the database structure behind the game I know you're mainly using C# from some dev posts I've read. To avoid abuse I think this should only be possible once every 3 or perhaps 6 months per character. So that if you find that after putting in a some hours of playing a character you don't really like the name you have the option to change it. Having said that, I´d really like to see a namechange option available online for your own characters. So firstly thanks so much for your effort in making it available again! Love the game, missed it so much after it shut down.
