i want to create offline crosspalform rpg
but if i see mana clirnt for all win-lin-mac, i cannot understand which one of servers i should use.
can i compile any of servers for win-lin-mac?
if i should use manaserv - can i use code samples from manaworld? how big is difference between manaserv and tmw-a? or between tmw-a and eathena. can mana work with eathena?

The difference between ManaServ and tmwA is huge - that's the primary reason I decided to support tmwA.
You'd be better off joining the development of one of the projects rather than trying to start your own - it's not that easy.

For single player (offline) rpg look at flare (http://www.flarerpg.org/)
Re: i want to create offline crosspalform rpg
Neither tmwAthena nor Manaserv are designed for offline gaming. Maybe RPGMaker (proprietary and commercial, but very affordable) would be a more suitable plattform for your project. You can get it on Steam.

Re: i want to create offline crosspalform rpg
i just thought i can make local server with campaign and connect mana client to it. rpg maker is not cross platform. and i use linux so it won't work for me anyway.

You might want to move to look into an established game, like The Battle for Wesnoth.

It could be the simplest way to be mutiplatform; I wished there was aTMW snapshot on the web site

Re: i want to create offline crosspalform rpg
is there any game that uses manaserv? i could compare it to flare then and decide what's better for me.

Last summer there was a pixelart and game creation competition called Liberated Pixel Cup. The game that won uses manaserv:faustdottwi wrote:is there any game that uses manaserv? i could compare it to flare then and decide what's better for me.

Is http://invertika.org still alive? It was the first game using the Manaserv plattform. It's in German, though.
But seriously, use the right tool for the job. When you want to create an offline RPG, use an offline engine.

Re: i want to create offline crosspalform rpg
@Crush: Invertika still uses manaserv. But development is on the hold for a while. The content is also not compatible with the latest manaserv. seeseekey is working on a rewrite of manaserv in C# and a client in HTML/JS. So invertika is on hold for now.
If you look for manaserv games, checkout Source of Tales (which Jenalya pointed out before).

Allacrost or Bertrams fork Valyria Tear is what you are looking for!

If you are not that experienced with programming I would recommend RPG Maker too.
There is a free editor / player replacement for it, but it is not quite finished yet.
