What errors are you getting well you debug?
-
I watched it and... honestly I found it ok. Not sure it was worth the build up.
-
Thanks for the contribution, and I hope you consider stopping by every now and then.

If I remember correctly crimeXP isn't player experience, but a completely unused stat all of its own that only appears inside the crime staff panel.

Microsoft and Google are doing what? I don't understand that sentence.

@Lucifer.iix - 6 posts in a row? There is an edit button at the bottom of your post if you wish to add information.

Looking for a super simple (but secure) start

Ezrpg is worth a look. -
I have no idea what your game's name actually is or what you have done in the past to both push new members to join and keep current ones active... How can I answer this question?
-
Sorry to see you go.Best of luck.

Wait for an answer directly from a_bertrand. I have in the past heard about licenses that have been transferred and/or sold, however I have no idea on the guidelines or what type of license they were(there was a cheap developers version in the past).

If NWE is "basic" so is every other engine out there. The feature list is rather large now. Wasn't there a FB game engine being sold on here? I also believe someone (Dayo?) released a basic one.

Actually... I either didn't know or simply forgot that the open date had passed. More advertising, and information on the advantages of using it over mccodes.com may help gain some new developers.

I actually agree with !Angel here, at least in part, and think it is much simpler to learn to do some tasks with something pre-made then it is without it. Does that mean using a Framework is bad? No, of course not, but using it for the simple things that I've seen some do is simply ridiculous. It does prevent you from learning yourself. Although it's not a Framework I'm going to use Jquery as an example. I've seen people use Jquery for the simplest things, and when asked why they used Jquery... they couldn't answer. In most cases it's because they can only do it that one way. Knowing the way JavaScript works is still important in my view. Because it makes my point... and I've really had this kind of moment in a conversation before - http://www.doxdesk.com/img/updates/20091116-so-large.gif The same principle can apply to full frameworks. You can use them, but it doesn't make you an expert. Can you open a random file, look at it, and tell me exactly what it's function is? Could you reproduce a piece of code to emulate that function if you needed to for a project were the client specifically asked for code without extra third party software? As for the standards a framework enforces not all of them are upto date. You hope that those producing it are keeping up with the language you are using. CodeIgniter is a good example of this; read their reviews. Not everyone agrees that they are still a usable framework because they still allow for older PHP versions, and that means they miss out on features. Frameworks also have bugs regularly just like PHP itself... there are still humans behind the program. It happens, and again you are hoping they fix it rather then looking at all of it yourself. The fact is you will never understand third party software better then your own. It could work better, of course, and it has massive advantages to it. I use open source software frequently as do most other people I would assume.

It's actually sound advice in the long run. Making things as efficient as possible sometimes means changing how you're doing things in the code rather than continuously throwing server resources at it. Of course it often takes time so a better server can act as a short term stopgap.
-
It could also go the other way. I've seen new games build a large donation pot in the first year then get sold on only for the members to leave. It's always the risk with donation based income. I understand it's your hard work you're trying to sell, but you also need to understand more then generated income should be taken into account. For example if the new owner could keep that income consistent. What's the average donation, and is that in any way inflated by one or two larger donors? I would also be interested in monthly averages.

It's probably sent before they encrypt it or simply on the same page where they can still access the original. I've seen other sites send plain passwords via E-mail when you signup and practically all sites send a password this way when you use a forget password feature (would be pointless otherwise).
-
Best of luck. It tends to limit mistakes if you don't forget that basic stuff like eating at a good time. Don't forget to take breaks (even just for a cup of Tea/coffee/whatever you drink) every now and then... and you know all the other general advice that is out there well using a computer. :p

[sarcasm] That was a wonderful, and clearly productive post. Thank you. [/sarcasm] Check the items posted with the "itemseller" (?) equal to the ID currently posting before you actually post it in imadd.php.

Sure, but like any translations it's probably slightly out. :p

PM stands for "private message" so no one else would have seen it. We don't view them.

If you check the link given above in my last post Guest gave contact information for Cronus.

I'm a little confused. Why does the time it took you to find them change the fact you have no right to sell them?
-
If that was aimed at me I wasn't asking to see them. I simply said if I were you I would check to ensure you have the right to use them. Since they are free modifications at best, possibly even paid, I highly doubt you have the right to sell them regardless of it being "your find".
-
Not really the case. It started as a paid engine, and it's much safer to assume it's never been made open source unless proved otherwise. Unmaintained does not mean it's public domain. That aside more recent posts show rights have been sold on so it's still not an open source project.
