The past few months, while I haven't said much of anything about it, I have also been developing my own game while also working on mods. District Wars was built using MCCodes V1. Say what you want about that, just say it to yourself, as I don't care too much to hear about it. I've probably re-coded over half of the base scripts. While some may say the layout is "too MCCodes," again, I'm not too worried about that, either. The average player has no idea what MCCodes is. The design is simplistic and functional, and I'm okay with it. The login page, yes, is... Lacking. To say the least. However, a new one is in the works and will hopefully be in place soon. Now that all of that is covered, down to what makes District Wars the slightest bit unique. Well, for starters, on a coding level, as I said, it's probably 80% my own work. Some of it may have the same look as MC, but I can promise you the coding is far different. A custom items system is in place, built entirely by me, with PROPER weapon equipping and a more stylized attacking process. Default V1 equipping is hardly worth the page space it took up. A referral exchange has been put in place. While rewarding players, I feel it will also be a good way to get the players to do a lot of the promotion for me. Custom built Revenge and Daily Mission systems. A wonderful "crystal" lottery that I'm quite proud of which selects three different jackpots or rolls over if no winner is selected. There are a lot more little tweaks, and a lot more to come. Is this the most blatant "advert-ish" post? Probably not. I simply wanted to let everyone know what I have been working on while lurking around the community. I welcome all of MWG to come check it out! Keep in mind, today was our first launch, and the building of this has been very secretive. Mainly to avoid embarrassment and letting people down if I failed to finish on time. There are hardly any players yet, as the marketing campaigns are slowly being rolled out. Regardless, check it out at http://districtwars.net

What new ideas? It's a comic book character. They're sticking with the comic books. Bane was Batman's ultimate enemy. As said in a prior post, he was nothing like that bumbling idiot in B&R. They did him justice in this film. Catwoman, on the other hand, I have mixed feelings for. I feel like she was an unnecessary character. Not to mention, I'm not a fan of Hathaway at all. No movie is perfect, though.

To clarify that just a little bit, the column names don't have to be the same. They just have to hold the same values.

Statements like these are why movies are just getting worse and worse. This trilogy has nothing to do with that crapfest back in the 90's. It's a reboot. And, really, the only decent one so far.

Pretty sure the files are attacktake, attackmug, attackleave, etc. Right where the query is that pays out experience/puts others in the hospital.

On the longer side of things, create a new item type. Then, just add a block of code to itemuse.php giving random outcomes.

A "randomizer" item? Care to elaborate?

Oh! He'd be Gonzo!

What's a "Trail" Pack? I'm above certain, with context, that is supposed to be a "Trial Pack." And "CGI accsess." Yep. Solid business, here.

You're not selecting specific columns in your table. Therefore, your query comes up as incomplete. Try something like this instead: $db->query("INSERT INTO dogs (column1,column2,column3) VALUES('{$_POST['dogsbreed']}', '{$_POST['dogsgender']}', '$cost')");   Get it?

Hint: Count the columns of your `dogs` table.

Ah Okay, yeah, I see what you're saying. Will be sure to fix that. Thanks.

No need. I found it. As usual, with these types of errors, it was just an idiot move on my part. The $idname variable was trying to select columns by using the item id instead of the item type. Which made no sense. Figures, I figured it out within seconds of posting. That $c is a V1 thing. I suppose I should format it as well. I think, for some reason, I thought it unnecessary. It connects the query to the DB. Hah. Come to think of it. That's probably one of the more important parts. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

I've had to completely create a new donation system due to the major overhaul I did of the items system. I've run into a snag. I obviously haven't grasped arrays like I was hoping and I'm looking for some tips, if they're there to give. What I'm trying to do is avoid a ton of if statements on displaying items within the donator packs. I thought I could use some arrays to pick the right table for each item type. Here's my section of code: $pitemtype = $ap['pack_item_type']; $pitemid = $ap['pack_item_id']; $tablearray = array(1 => 'weapons', 2 => 'weapons', 3 => 'armor', 4 => 'energy_items', 5 => 'health_items'); $idarray = array(1 => 'weapon_id', 2 => 'weapon_id', 3 => 'armor_id', 4 => 'energy_item_id', 5 => 'health_item_id'); $tablename = $tablearray[$pitemtype]; $idname = $idarray[$pitemid]; $packitemquery = sprintf("SELECT * FROM `$tablename` WHERE (`$idname`=%d)", $pitemid, $c); $packitem = mysql_query($packitemquery); $pit = mysql_fetch_array($packitem);   And here's the error I get: Warning: mysql_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in *****/donator.php on line 137   I'm just not entirely sure where I've gone wrong. As I said, I must not understand arrays, yet. I have only just begun to play around with arrays. Any ideas? And, by the way, if it's needed, line 137 is just declaring the $pit variable. In case that wasn't obvious.

Well, you know, who doesn't like a good ol' horny bull every now and then? That seems wrong, but... I'll allow it. And, more to that oft talked about point. We all start somewhere. Unfortunately, there's nothing to be said about some people's attitudes toward gaining some knowledge. I say, let's give the benefit of the doubt with just a dash of "smart ass" on top. I don't see any harm in telling them what they need to know. If they refuse to actually UNDERSTAND it, it will only hurt *them* in the long run. No skin off my wallaby. Oh, the infamous *them.* How I fear thee.

Oh man. I feel like I just got a compliment. Yep. My tingly spot is definitely tingling. When you can reach past "subtle," it gives you the warm and fuzzies.

A wise man once said, "If you want it to get done, you have to do it." He probably wasn't all that wise. Aphids were involved. Here's a thought. Once you get past the methods... And, I mean, the real technicalities.. What's so "different" about different languages? Aren't we all one world? Aren't we all trying to say the same thing? One world. ONE WORLD! On the matter of stimulation.. Don't let us pitiful ol' no'bs stand in your way, oh leader of intellectual innovation. This should tune you right up.  

What exactly do you mean? It sound like you're asking why you can't see anything you've added just because you added it. The answer to that is, you still have to go into your explore.php,index.php, etc. etc. and add a link to whatever page you're adding. For example, let's just say you're adding a "Search The Streets" mod. It's very likely the name of your file would be "streets.php." So, you would open up your mainmenu.php. And, where all those links are, somewhere in between there, you would add something like this: <a href='streets.php'>Search The Streets</a>   Then, the link would show up in your navigation menu. Is that what you meant?

Or, if you don't want to code it from scratch, there's likely some WordPress plugins that would accomplish this for you.

What Danny said. Also, have you thought about making the investments having a chance of losing money? It just seems a bit pointless the way it is. "Here's free money." No offense meant. Definitely has potential.

Which can be faked with some basic knowledge of Photoshop. All I'm saying is, why try to demand "proof" of a license just to build a mod? Can't use the mod without the engine.

How are you going to check it? I have a valid V2 license not assigned to any domain that I use strictly on a test server for mod building. It's not going to show up with the MC license checker.

What about the original post even hinted that he wanted cPanel access? What mod-creator in this community has ever asked for cPanel access? What?

First, try re-installing the mod from scratch. Maybe you missed something. If that doesn't work, file a support ticket on mccodemods.com. Then, prepare to wait a few days for a response. Then, thank Cronus and his bunch for providing "bug-free mods."

Awesomely bug free, Cronus. Just saying.
