A new update for this module will be coming later today it now tracks users progress for each award and if they have completed the award requirements.

might aswell take part i will put my awards system as my entry. GL everyone

Thankyou. Yes this is very true alot of people cant design definitely will be adding this feature

Thanks. This is now on Market Place waiting for verification should be on soon🙂

Thankyou was planning it for a while as definitely needed for GL. yes i was aware of this but i built a custom function that handles the userActions correctly and does not error using any the hooks all data passed to it is 100% accurate. Everything that has been done so far within the module hasnt required 1 edit of another file.

i think it looks good but also your going down the same route as your other game looks too similar to it. Think it would be better to go a different direction instead of using same design choices from a game you already own.

big improvement from before hope you all the best with the game. Only problem i had is old html being used <center> <font> tags these were deprecated along time ago and especially with using bootstrap you can achieve the same results very easily without using them.

yes they can be tracked this way if you use them as an access pass but this is no different to using a normal pass to access buildings, will just say where the pass was uses and the permissions that are available to this pass.

I personally like the idea i know their is one on the market which also provides wallet transactions which can be very helpful if you forget your phone or wallet as home. https://mclear.com/ very good product for things like that and also as they use low power communication they cant be used as a tracking device

this should work for you, one thing you need to remember when on PHP files use the PHP variable and not the HTML template variable also you didnt define the image so you would need to select the column that contains the data. public function method_view() { $id = $this->methodData->id; $car = $this->db->prepare("SELECT * FROM garage INNER JOIN cars ON (CA_id = GA_car) WHERE GA_id = :car"); $car->bindParam(':car', $id); $car->execute(); $car = $car->fetchObject(); if (empty($car) || $car->GA_uid != $this->user->id) { $this->alerts[] = $this->page->buildElement('error', array("text"=>'You dont own this car or it does not exist!')); } else { $this->alerts[] = $this->page->buildElement('success', array( "text" => '<img src="'.$car->CA_pic.'"><br>Your Currently Viewing ')); } } This should work for you also removed those extra SQL's from the end as they could interfere with users.

yes this also works if you don't want to use another entry

yes but the other way is even more simple it takes 1 column and an img tag on your garage page. Posting each one of them topics up takes alot longer doing it the real way would take around 5 mins and would look a lot more appealing. ALTER TABLE `cars` ADD `CA_pic` VARCHAR(200) NOT NULL AFTER `CA_name`; in garage.tpl.php find on line 15 <th>name</th> add before <th>Image</th> then find on line 34 <td>{name}</td> add before <td><img src="{image}" alt="{name}" width="75" height="75"/></td> in garage.inc.php find on line 27 "name" => $car->CA_name, add before "image" => $car->CA_pic, after update your images of your cars just a basic way of doing it. would still be more advanced ways but this just shows what can be done in short time. This is what the result would be.

This must be the worst and stupidest way I've ever seen this implemented into a game, you have pretty much just posted the image into a forum topic and just link to the topic id. Why don't you just add a column to the cars table like CA_image and fetch it along with all the other data in garage, so simple to do. you could add a new method if you wanted a car info page but if not you could just put the images on the default garage view.

Yes these will be fully based on game income only.

With my game approaching launch I've thought of doing real life rewards for players like cash, apparel and like electronics. Apparel is like hoodies and etc but like a 1 of 1 for the winner so one of a kind items. This would be an example so the top player in the game would be given this reward at the end of the competition along with other items like a loot box of sorts. (NOT FINAL PRODUCT) What do you think of this idea?

I would recommend a couple mods by Dayo. You could easily alter to add VIP packages along with a hook to check VIP status and add where needed in other modules. @Dayo might even alter the mod for a bit extra. Also as an extra this would take editing multiple modules as you would need to do checks to see if VIP status exists and make adjustments when rewards are given like in crime pages and any pages you require this.

No problem I do have the source will zip it and send you a pm now. Sometimes the best reason to release source as someone might have a copy. All done check your PM should have the source now.

Also just seen this comment oRPG i'm sure i have the source of this laying around if it is the correct one, did you release the source code on Game Makers Forum if so i will have a look for you if you haven't got the source anymore. As obviously GMF don't exist anymore. this is the logo for it and i think this version i download in like 2015

Nice cant wait to check it out. great work so far, should be a very successful game after full release.

very nice design brings back a lot of memories when i played this game when it was originally released. Great work bringing it back and giving it a fresh take. Also any plans to make the in game template responsive as currently don't resize on mobile

The major issue i see with this is potentially blocking genuine players. As a lot of ISP's use a pool of available IP's and allot them to people at random so one day your IP could be the same IP that was blocked by another user. IP blocking/tracking i personally don't do because of this. Unless users are using static IP addresses this will be impossible to ever become useful. Then as @ags_cs4 pointed out you have the other part using VPN so again you will have the same issue if you block the IP as again VPN's will use a pool of IP's. With all of that i just see it creating more issues for genuine users trying to access the site as a lot of people will ban accounts from tracking their actions when they might not even know each other just might share the IP. Nothing against the module still great work some people might still want to use it.

As you state above you want the post removed. you would have to send a request to @Dave and if he thinks the post should be removed then he will do so. if not then it would stay as i can't remove it. also this don't relate to just this situation but game advertising in general and people using others games to advertise. This is more of an example of the tactics some owners/users use to advertise their games.

yes that is true but using his actual name to advertise, would be hard not to say it was him as his actual name is Don Drew

yes totally agree it is very hard to combat toxic people like this but the things that annoys me the most is the person doing it is also a member on these forums and so is the game owner a member of these forums. at the end of it we are suppose to be a community to help each other but with attitudes like that i definitely wont be working with people like this.
