In your Staff Panel; the Settings don't update if you didn't use the install file that was included with the v2 Script. Eh sure they will so long as you input the proper sql queries ;P like the above posted.

It just looks like users would get bored fairly quickly. By something on the left/right it just looks...bare. The page doesnt stretch very far it's all kind of mushed together, I can't really elaborate as I can't exactly place it, it just looks off a bit :p Securing your site should have came above all else as that will make or break your game. Just imagine...5 days in there are 12 admins with 9999999999999999999 cash/crystals and all the nuclear plans Or worse...2 weeks into the game opening someone truncates your users table and everyone gets deleted. It discourages from coming back even if you fix it :p

A semicolon also signifies the end of a database query it's not "incorrect" The reason the above statement won't work is because i'm missing a ` (Intentional) Neither of the above should work i was demonstrating a common error i make. The 2nd example you are reffering to however was assuming the echo is between { } tags from an if statement, i'm just being lazy It was an example of a common typo i do when I get in a hurry. lol. jeez

1. After you register it directs you to 'login.php' not newlogin.php. 2. After login it is to simple. The page that welcomes you to logging in should have something there. 3. The user stats looked crammed together in that box. 4. While I like the Drop Down Tabs, I would still leave something lying around to the left or right so new users don't get discouraged quickly. 5. Most everything I see is basic McCodes. Other than the layout what seperates your game from the rest? (isnt the CrimeGames layout also >,<?) 6. I havent checked security issues, do i dare? ;) 7. What's with the clock on the right? It seems out of place and doesnt appear to be doing anything. 8. http://www.nukeplans.x10hosting.com/ Look into getting an actual domain registered. nukeplans.com / net etc Just a few quick observations i made (:

My biggest problem is missing a ' or ` sometimes in a statement, query or echo type statement be amazed how hard that key is to hit sometimes it would seem i.e mysql_query("SELECT `userid` FROM `users` WHERE `userid !=".$r['userid'].""); The above code would error and depending on how late it is I could stare at it forever and just NOT see it >,< I end up looking above and below that line to figure it out, especially if it's not a query and doesnt say "query error" lol i.e echo "blah blah'; can't count the number of times i've done that ><

Basically it is securing "so called" all $_GET and $_POST variables to a mediocre degree. The problem I've seen with this, is a lot of scripts now secure their scripts manually. And "correct me if i'm wrong" I beleive if it is done this way in header or globals or w/e file they choose..then you have another variable in a seperate script secured the same way..they cancel each other out no? Not to mention it won't stop "all" hacks and some $_GET and $_POST variables should be secured according to what they do. i.e if you htmlentities your user name and you arent using span class "which default mccodes isn't" You won't have font colored names you'll have the html code printed out on the screen. However some input is better to have entities or special characthers. Just an example anywho ^ Ignore the O.P. Best advice, Secure scripts as they are written and don't rely on a quick one fix "global" script to secure your entire site, it doesnt exist.

Not everyone on this board will get agg'd with you :) We all started somewhere (:

A valid point Doug. Again, The only failure of this post would be if no one learned anything. I'm sure a lot of the new guys grasped a concept or two and Doug actually made me look at his way, so win win i think ;)
-
I have yet to see a Modification like games such as Immortalnight.com or Prisonstruggle.com use where players can actually pay for animated/imaged type names that "fits" the layout. Doing this actually takes a bit of CSS talent, I dont beleive the coding end would be to hard, but fitting everything so you don't have huge gaps between names then small gaps causing everything to be uneven actually becomes a pain, for myself anywho.
-
I fell in <3 with Notepad++ as well ><
-
Eh just secure the $_POST variable then lol Secure it once you wouldnt "need" to secure the same variable 13 times $_POST['variable'] = mysql_real_escape_string(strip_tags($_POST['variable'])); Then wherever it's output Assuming Magic Quotes is on and you arent using a class to already stripslashes $_POST['variable'] = stripslashes(htmlentities($_POST['variable'], ENT_QUOTES)); That + A secured BBcode engine you should be good to go.

I dno about total fail jordan, I beleive Doug provided some information that can benefit others and broaden some horizons into..other ways of doing things :)

Well, being as the bars/images are copied from the Owners of Makewebgames(now), I guess I'll jump out the conversation. If anyone has a problem with it, they would speak up, so I guess you're in the clear :D
-
If I ever get some free time, and/or get bored, I may give it a run No promises or anything :p
-
I can' t place it, but it seems something is missing from the 2 above.. It may be the lighting or blending it's just...I cant place it something doesnt seem settled >,< not bad however :P Smaller stuff like sigs i do a fairly good job on tho i try not to clutter them to god awful much. The Larger images like banners/header/mainmenu/background etc is where I'm heading with my work and it's a totally differant ballpark ><
-
Just finished this one up, i thought this wasnt to god awful personally. it's not 10000.00 professional or anything, but I liked it :P
-
Just got to my actual computer and wanted to give the banner another run just for humor sakes...I'm not entirely sure how bars are made tho i'll google it and possibly :p You can view the image on a dark background on this Demo McV2 login http://www.mcv2.mastermccodes.com/login.php

Well I started with graphics months ago using GIMP, but Gimp is 'lol'able ;) So now I'm ps'in it :D Thanks for the input tho, i'm hoping it'll get better :D
-
Yep, I go through as many as I can, again i've only had PS cs 3 for about 3 weeks or so, was using gimp, so taking some getting used to. Some things turn out really good others are just eh.. but again, they are freebies I offer and the more I do the better I get, it's more a familiarity thing with it than anything else. The only other thing that throws me off is over at the house I'm at at the moment i dont have all my brushes/scripts etc that I have on my home computer so I can't do nearly as good a job as I do on say this one.. This was actually part of a header to a layout I was making for a game when we had a power outage and I lost the PsD >,< lol. Again, a few more months I should have some mediocre skills with ps

yawn, nice attempt at an edited mod.
-
lol it wasn't about attitude. :p You called him stupid then said if he takes what you said offensive he needs a councselour. I was merely pointing out anyone being called stupid should take offense to that. Unless of course they are retarded in which case stupid would be a step up? ;p

MCCodes/VBulletin registration integration help
Joshua replied to KDawg08's topic in General Discussion
If someone can do it using WBB let me know , because to be honest, the WBB forums confuse the hell out of me. To find one file takes me 30 minutes of scrolling through 2000 files ;P -
Right click, save and upload :) Login form wasnt verifying with Authenticate I dont beleive and register was inputting to many queries into the database in userstats
-
Another one i just slapped together, it only looks good on a blackbackground, which is what your "login" has i couldnt log in or register to your game to see the inside, but i'm assuming it's the mc layout just with differant font
