Hi all, we are currently working on a full solution system for developing a MMORPG game with Unity. Unity will be used as the client with our own Server Software which will allow people to connect to a Massive Multi-Player Online world. As a developer you will be supplied our server side system which is not done in Unity and use Unity as the Client to connect to the server.We will also be adding a building system in Unity itself to set Mobs, Add quests, and much more. This system will update the server side automatically when you are building your game in unity. We where just wondering what the demand would be for such a system.

Basic Licensing:
NeoJac offers the following licenses for Atavism. Licenses are determined by the number of concurrent users (users online at the same time) participating with the platform. Licenses can be upgraded as your game’s success improves. This allows for a “pay as when you need it” and not have to worry about those royalty percentages riding on your efforts. You can have as many different servers done with one license but only one database per server. There is no royalties added with the licenses.
The Base Build License will be purchased at the Unity3D Store.
All other licenses will be purchased here. Each license is an upgrade, of which must be paid separately.
Licenses are per seat with group discounts.
STARTER LICENSE $45 (USD)
100 Concurrent Users
This code will be purchased at the Unity3D Store and is required for all of the other licenses. All of the server code is compiled, with exception to configuration files. This build allows for developers to quickly develop a MMO within Unity3D by using the GUI (Graphical User Interface).
Base Build Licenses includes: Chat, Quests, Skill System, Basic Combat, Pets, Mob Spawning, Factions,Inventory system, Modular housing system and more to come.
VETERAN LICENSE + $120 (USD)

Atavism Unity Beta 2 Release Notes
17th June 2014
Note: The Atavism Unity tools are still in alpha and as such may contain numerous bugs and so e features will be missing.
Atavism Unity Beta 2 Changelogs
Major Changes
1) Inventory System:
- The Inventory System has been improved to allow “Effects” to be added to items. These can include stats that are applied to characters when the item is equipped, abilities that can be activated by the item, and Auto Attack ability replacement for when a weapon is equipped. The system is designed to allow other types of effects to be easily added to items at later dates.
- Bags are now properly supported and players can put bags into their bag slots to give themselves more space in their inventory.
2) Atavism Editor:
- The Atavism Editor now has a login system to verify the user has purchased a license to use the Atavism Editor tools.
- A new Option Choices plugin has been added allow users to add and change the options for many of the drop down in the Atavism Editor. For example, a user can now set their own item types rather than using the predefined options.
- Help section (book Tab) now has a description and function information on each item for that plugin.
Minor Improvements
Atavism Editor
- Added Delete/Remove buttons for many areas where you could not previously delete data entered.
- Mobs: Faction and Damage Type drop downs now correctly link to the data in the database. New field: Auto Attack added to allow specifying which ability the mob uses as their auto attack.
- Player Character Setup: Added Auto Attack field to allow specifying which auto attack the players character starts with.
General
- The Input Controller system has been changed and now Input Controllers must be added as a component to an object in each game scene (generally to the Main Camera). An Input Controller should not be added to the Login scene.
- Players disconnected from the server will now be booted to the Login Scene rather than being left to run around the world.
- The default UI has been improved to allow anchoring to different areas of the screen.
- Key bindings have been added for the action bar (using the 1-7 buttons), and for a few windows (L for Quest Log, K for Skills, B for Bag)
- A caster slot has been added to the CoordProjectileEffect script so the slot the projectile leaves the caster from can be set.
- Quest Items have been added, an item with an Item Type of Quest will only drop when the item is needed for a Quest the player is on.
Fixes
- A couple of item duplication methods have been fixed.
- The Cursor is now drawn in front of the rest of the GUI
- NPC’s offering only one dialogue will now display that dialogue when requested
- A newly created character will now start with their full amount of health and mana.
- Players can no longer login to the game with any password when using the UMA package (it was a server side fix, a UMA update is not required).
- Starting abilities for skills will now be granted for abilities with a level of either 0 or 1.
- The Ability and Inventory systems in the game no longer stop working when 2 or more Prefabs have the same id.
- The InstancePortal script is working again and can be used to teleport players between instances.
- The Mob Spawner UI will now only show up for those who have access.
- The mouse wheel will no longer zoom the camera in and out when over most GUI elements.
- Quests set to Repeatable are now repeatable.
- NPCs will now talk to players who are on a Quest but have not yet completed it.
We have put together a basic roadmap, this will not be all features but as we go along more things will be added.
