MU Online S3 Source-Based Project — Seeking Core Developer & Dev Partner

[Frost]

Hello,

My name is Frost. I'm a long-time MU player and server administrator with extensive experience building and managing MU private server projects.
My recent admin work includes EternityMU S3 → DemonicMU S3 (later evolved into S6 after I left), and through that journey I've developed a deep understanding of why private servers fail and how to fix it:

Common failure points I've mastered avoiding:
- Lack of long-term vision and sustainability
- Inactive / uncommitted staff teams
- Sparse updates, events, and community engagement
- Poor communication channels (ignored bugs, suggestions, player feedback)
- Weak economic systems that fail to support stable, engaging in-game trade

These are not guesses — they're consistent patterns I've identified and successfully addressed through strategic planning, reliable operations, and structured community interaction.
I know how to build a server that lasts. (both conceptually, and operationally)

Project Vision

MU Online Season 3 Episode 1 — source-based, independent, not copy-paste
Full control over code, systems, and roadmap
Long-term stability > short-term launch buzz
Professional project approach, with clear structure and roles

I will personally handle:
- Project leadership & coordination
- Server administration & infrastructure
- Community building & moderation standards
- Vision and roadmap for sustainable growth

Who I'm Looking For

🛠� Core Developer / Source-Code Expert
You should be able to:

- Work directly with MU source code (not just configs)
- Read, clean, refactor legacy code
- Debug crashes, logic issues, memory problems
- Modify game logic, skills, formulas, events

Comfortable with:
- C++ (Win32 / Visual Studio)
- MSSQL databases
- Legacy MU development workflows
- Experience with MU sources (S1–S3 / similar) is a huge plus

Partnership Structure
- Core members are partners, not helpers / service givers
- Shared decision-making
- Shared costs & future income
- Clear roles & expectations

Once a core partnership is formed, we'll expand into:

- GFX designers
- Head GM & Event GM team
- Moderators
- Forum & community admins

Contact

If you're:

- A serious MU developer

- A GFX / Client / Unity-oriented contributor

- Someone who knows the right people or devs in the MU scene
