Redeye

Hey everybody, Another long-time member popping in after randomly coming across this forum being back, was good to see a few familiar names. To think I joined in 2007 when I had just turned 14 years of age ? I've since become a Software/Website Developer after completing a Computer Science degree therefore my days of coding MCCodes games helped me get on this track. I actually use PHP primarily in my job as a Web Developer for local government. After looking back at some of my earlier code (I think we all cringe when we do that), I am glad I've learnt quite a bit since then ? I'm glad to see MWG back and I may even start posting on here again. No promises however, since life and work seems to get in the way of internet activities nowadays ? - Redeye

Hey Guys, Here is a bit of a general question, but what direction would you like to see Text-Based games go in the future? My opinion of the current crop is that the market is a bit too saturated with Mafia-style games. Space-based ones aren't as aplenty, but still widespread. Where does that leave Text-Based games to go? -Redeye

I'm sure I could do that for you. I made a php-based quiz for an assignment in 1 night ages back and it is probably similar to what you are looking for. You can take a look at it below: http://redeye.comxa.com/quiz/ I'd like £5 (about $8) for it but I'd make it and install it for you. PM if you'd be happy with this arrangement :) -Redeye

I was once a part of a project called "Exploring Azoundria" which was single-player fantasy based but the owner eventually gave up on the project :/

The randomness of me actually coming on this forum and noticing this forum is immense lol But yh, good luck with the site mate. I may return and whatnot after this year of my College Course. I am building a CMS there so I should have more skills in my armament after :D

If your looking for a story writer, I am sure I could do that. Though my C# skills goes as far as what I learnt making a countdown timer in College :/

Quite xD But I'd like to find a big site which I could code for, because I have coded for games only to find them go kaput :/

They didn't I am afraid. I wasn't skilled enough for their work (I am sticking with McCoded games). They were looking for partners for new game projects and I felt I wouldn't have been near the level they wished for. Though Skalman did get in contact with me after this and I helped code for his game which had some bugs. Though it has gone downhill since he has been away due to Uni (and he was working on some stuff of his own).

Would I count for this? I basically code for sites who need help and someone who can work for them for free but share the profits if/when it comes. I am trustworthy, though I am not anywhere near the best out there

Battlefield 3 all the way. Got Black Ops, it was a flop but at the end of the day, its not that bad of a game really. Plus, it has dedicated servers for the PC (unlike bloody MW2). Well, CoD peaked at MW1 I feel but who knows, they may do better this year. Still, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 was a good game and BF2 looks like a much graphically-improved version of BC2 so I think it should be good. Go watch the epic trailers if you don't believe me

I'd just like to agree with those who are in the "Peter is good" club, he is a good guy who is skilled in coding from what I have seen and he seems trustworthy.

Hey lucky, I am the coder for the site, not the owner lol I'll take a look at the registration because I didn't realise there was an issue with it until now. The demo account shouldn't be fedjailed though, I'll check the staff logs about that... -Redeye

Wise words. I hope to be good enough to create a great php-based RPG type game one day (i.e. one more story-line based then the norm).

I am decent (well, compared to most of the 2-bit coders out there) but not in the league of you, peter and the other mod-makers (I will get more into PHP after my IT BTEC Course. Learning Binary and Machine coding atm - well, 1 unit out of the 3 that I have left from the 9 total [and that is more then enough work xD ] )

I'd be happy to do it :D If you don't want me though, Dave Macaulay is a great coder lol

Happy Easter all :D Nice pic :p

I like it, nice work. Its new and innovative :D

Thanks for the feedback mate :D Your thread actually gave me the idea so +1 for you :P

Hey Guys, This thread should be used for showing off if you are good at a game. I'll go first with a Vid of me playing an epic game of 1 in the chamber followed by an 11 kill streak vid (all in one). The best bit is that in the 1 in the Chamber vid, I was accused of Aimbotting (mind you, some of the shots I pulled off were very good).   Tell me what you think and post your own vids here :D -Redeye

Hey mate, It seems like I must have made a change after I posted this up since the class is element1 for the div

Hey Dave, Thanks for the help but it doesn't seem to work. I think it may be the way that I am integrating it into the PHP or something. Near the top of the page, I have   echo "<script src='jquery-1.5.2.min.js'> $('.element1').click(function() { // Calls when the element is clicked $(this).fadeOut(500, function() { //Hide the current element $('.jail').fadeIn(500); }); }); </script>";   And where I want the Jail menu to pop up after clicking, I have this code (in an echo statement)   <td valign=top align=left> <div class='element'> <img src='jail.gif' align='center' width='90%'> </div> <div class='jail'> <a href='jail.php>Jail</a> </div></td>   Since I will be doing it multiple times (and have more things in the menu), I want to get this one working first of all lol. Cheers, Redeye P.S. Ignore all the <br /> s that appear because of MWG adding them into for some reason

Hey guys, I am not very good when it comes to Javascript yet and I am having trouble getting an idea I have into practice. Basically, my issue is that I want a picture to exist in my PHP script which when clicked upon, it disappears and shows up a menu (well, linked html with <br /> s lol). This would be in a table (i.e. in a <td> is where the picture is contained). Not sure if I am being clear. Thanks, Redeye

Although your site seems bog standard for the moment, I wish you luck. Thats about all I can do. Don't worry about people talking down to you, its how your game ends up which matters (i.e. like mosts which is a footnote in previous sites you have worked on)

That would make the WHERE statement useless. You could shorten it to mysql_query(UPDATE users SET brave = brave + 10); I don't know if that is correct syntax since I have only worked with C# in the last 3/4 years (and not much of that lol)

Alright, I'll be truthful. Notepad++ towards the end, but I just used Notepad because it was much easier and most of the edits were done via cPanel's file manager (legacy I think)
