Free stick rpg software for linux

Sloth Online RPG is aJava Online RPG with Real-Time Action and rich 2D graphics.

Sloth Online RPG is a work in progress that will provide a fully graphical online role playing game engine. SlothORPG is coded in Java and is currently in a near playable state featuring several classes with over a thousand lines of code.

My main intentions with this project are to provide a free, fully functional, ever expanding Role Playing Engine (both client and server side) for the end user who would be playing the game. Developers would also be able to use the project as a resource on certain aspects of Java Game Programming.

Server side the project implements the NIO Networking library to create a smoother, stronger tcp/ip core. I found UDP and TCP w/ the old IO library to be unreliable and sluggish respectively. The way in which the server is structured has proven to be strong thus far.

The client side of the code features the Graphics2D Java library to provide near perfect animation without requiring a rendering device such as OpenGL or DirectX.

To summarize my entire intent for this project I basically wanted to provide an Online RPG that is functional on almost any OS that has Java installed and can run just as smooth on low end machines while still being able to feature rich 2-D graphics. The source code is clean and neat as well as commented and organized.

It is easy to read and understand for someone who has some knowledge of Java. As I write this, the project is coming along nicely and some pre-alpha local network testing has proven this. I plan to continue with this project and in the future include database integration and more of a developer-side interface.

A quick rundown of what this project includes so far: Character Creation, Smooth character animation, and fully supported tcp/ip gameplay. Chatting is also implemented.

Linux on a Stick is an attempt to make a Live-CD/USB-Flash server Linux distro. At its heart is a very small and simple Linux distro that boots off CD/Flash and runs from RAM (Ie no spinning hard drives of death).
This approach allows us to strip the OS to its very basic components, which minimizes the amount of resources required. This distro is targeted towards Server administrator who are familiar with Linux, its only configuration method is the command line.
Enhancements:
- Linux kernel 2.4.33 was replaced with 2.6.18.8.
- A USB booting problem that would prevent it from booting on some BIOSs (Namely AMI) was resolved.
- The ARDIS iSCSI target was replaced with the Enterprise iSCSI target (v0.4.14).
- The Open iSCSI initiator (v2.0.754) package with kernel modules is included.
- The distribution now boots on more than just Intel CPUs.
- Userland tools (v3.6.19) and kernel FS support were included for ReiserFS and XFS.
- The PHP CLI is included in php-5.2.0 in root.gz initrd.

Wiki on a Stick is a personal wiki that lives in a single self-modifying HTML file that contains the software, interface, and database.

Its useful for taking notes, for use as a calendar, and for documenting software, etc. Wiki on a Stick currently only works in Firefox

Freedroid RPG project is an extension/modification of the classical Freedroid engine into an RPG. The main differences to the classical version are as follows:
- The Tux is the main character of the rpg.
- The game uses isometric viewpoint and animated pre-rendered 3d character models for all characters inside the game.
- Dialogs and chatting with friendly droids and humans: Multiple-choice menus and voice samples (with subtitles for those without sound).
- There is an item and inventory system that is modeled after some popular standards of the industry
- An automap feature was added. (this is currently a bit unmaintained since part of the code needs to be re-written for proper OpenGL support in the automap display)
- Saving and loading of games.
- Shops to trade things and skills to learn.
- Controls are different: Mouse is the input method of choice.
- This is a graphically intense game. Therefore the archive size is comparably *huge* and not suitable for modem downloads with a dialup connection.
Enhancements:
- This version, mostly unchanged from -rc4, focuses on making the development for the game easier, exports some hardcoded data into files, makes the map editor a bit more usable, and has other major and minor tweaks.

Ultima Iris is a Ultima online client total 3D.

Iris2 is a 3D/2D game client for the popular Massive Multiplayer Role Playing Game "Ultima Online" (tm). Adding a third dimension to the well-known Ultima Online World, Iris2 allows the player to navigate the gaming environment just like any modern 3d rpg and still retain the unique roleplaying experience that only classic Ultima can provide. Moreover, being compatible with standard UO game servers, the player is not limited to play with only users of Iris but may also seamlessly interact with players using standard 2d clients.
