That is why we learned C, it was merely to understand how the basics of programming work, like you said. We never made any real user interfaces or connect to other services. We did make a small console game, which was either fisherman or 4 in a row. Still, I don't mind them trying. The experience will learn them something somehow.

Well, I haven't really used C++ a lot, I was busy more with just C, not that it's such a huge difference. If you're up for the challenge, write a decent UI and make it work with a mysql database over the LAN. and in the end make it run on linux. I'll be happy to test it for you ;) btw, if there relly is a decent interest in C/C++, we'll add a board for it, but that will only done when there are enough actual posts on the forum, here in other programming!

Well apart from the rather strange way of capitalizing each word, which I'll leave out and the ridiculously high stats on those screenshots. Didn't you forget something like code? I would give 50% gains either... That beind said, kudos for the effort!

Thread has gone off topic, the last post wasn't on topic either ... Thread locked OP feel free to start a new topic when required.

Installing what exactly? Mccodes, Neab, a lamp stack, a linux os...

Arson has been around for quite a while, I can't judge on his work, nor can I edited danny's trusted coder list. And I'm not planning on doing it so either, it's danny's job!

Makes sense now, and sorry I do not know that. Let's hope someone knows. Best shot, send a mail to it that doesn't look like spam.

I'm unsure what you mean by this message, it's like a riddle. Either way, ask your question correctly, or just share the information at once. No point of asking whether someone is interested or not. Share the info at once, it's the same result in the end, quicker and more helpfull ;) - Does anyone know whether this email is still active? or - The email is (no longer) / (still) in use....

Might be, but it's still top quality ;)

thread moved & renamed

I'm still a fan of this Also, we're not annoyed by you posting here, we'll move it, if it were the case.

Cool game! some are easy once you finally know the answer xD

Well in all honesty, they can't do much more than that. They have made a v2.0.4 available from the client area so you can download it, and replace all old files. As other option they have provided a document on how to upgrade manually from v2.0.3 to v2.0.4. I don't think they can do much more since, if you have touched the code, a replacement is void, and they can never know what you have edited in what way to make the upgrade happen. With a good document - I don't know how it looks like though - any game owner should be able to upgrade his codes if preferred. If you can't do this, then I'm afraid that the fault is with you. You can always contact them and ask whether they want to do the upgrade for you freely, but I don't think that will happen either.

in reply to the two latest replies @spud: "When you think of an entrepreneur you think of more than one product", well that might be, but this is a competition with rules and the rules say differently, end of discussion really. Otherwise, good additions. @chicka. food/drinks, .. aren't allowed to enter, again the idea stops there.

Hmmm, interesting competition and a nice idea for sure. A few things you have to ask yourself though. Location, will I have easy access to possible clients? Am I easy to reach? Since it's in a mall, probably more than enough. Interest, are those possible clients actually interested in buying what I'm offering? No point of selling diggers there as the chances are rather low that someone is interested in buying a digger in a mall. Websites, well chances are much more likely that someone actually wants to buy one, depending on other factors of course, but still pretty low .. people don't come to a mall to get a website, then again, it's not possible to buy a website in a mall, so it might actually be a success. Competition, Do you have competition? Ifso, what do they offer, what makes me unique from them? what is my weak point compared to them? Pricing, what's my price? can and will your average possible client spend that much on your package? I doubt that a random person wants to pay $250 for a 'simple' wordpress installation and a personal domain. just so he has his personal site. A domain registration and a dns resolve to a blogspot or whatever costs, what.. $20? Make sure your package it's worth it. Transparency, no matter what your price is, make sure your clients know what they are buying. Organization, show them that you are serious, that you are organised, even if that means you should make a small banner to hang up, and have some business cards so they can contact you. Proof of concept / demo, have something to show. A person that can actually see what they are buying makes them more likely to be attracted to the product than when they just have a few things on a paper that you can only tell.   Will all of this be enough? Can't tell.. Will you win the competition? Probably not as there are other ideas that require a lot less work that will earn you more simply by the amount of sales. eg: selling drinks Will you get some work? Quite sure if you meet the above, or at least, you'll get noticed

Please use code tags! Also the data dump wasn't needed.

6 FAQ 6.1 I don't know PHP/MySQL/JAVA/<technology>, what should I do? You can ask us for help or information to what options your project should suit best, or how you could start optimal for learning a new technology. We'll be happy to assist you in your first steps. 6.2 Can you do <something> for me? Quite possibly that we can do something for you, however, we are not here to work for you. If you have a certain job or work that needs to be done. Hire someone. 6.3 I want to make a quick buck, how do I do this? Get a job as paper carrier. Working online, or making a web game will not bring you in any money quickly. You need to built up a reputation and a product. It will take a long time before this is achieved. A lot of time and work will be put into this. 6.4 Can I add my web (game) engine on makewebgames.io? Yes, you can for sure, however we go through a screening process. Be prepared to hand over a full featured product, as how you'd sell it to your clients, available for an internal test. Contact Nickson 6.5 I'm in a certain situation and I'm not sure what I should do here?? Feel free to contact any moderator on this site and we'll assist you in posting your issue/problem on this forum.

3 Staff Guidelines & Interaction 3.1 Staff Rights Staff has the right to perform any action they wish as long as it suits the situation. Any action made by staff is not up for public discussion. When this is not to your likings, reconsider and eventually contact an high level admin (3.x) 3.x Issues with staff Issues with staff should be reported to an Administrator. Please provide all information possible. We would like to create a healthy environment for all.

2. User Guidelines 2.1 User Behaviour 2.1.1 Show respect It's not important to us how old you are or where you are from, but do show some respect to your fellow community members. This starts with correct communication (2.1.2 Language) but doesn't stop there. There will always be someone who you can learn from at some point. Listen to what these people say and do not e-flip them off. They are helping you after all, and it certainly does not increase your reputation on here. They might have some useful tips or links. (2.1.3 Willingness to learn. When making a post, have some patience (2.1.4 Reply and answer). It will get you a lot further than anything Begging is not allowed (2.1.5 Begging) 2.1.2 Language We are an international community, with the English language as communicational language. Therefore, we will ONLY allow English in all public boards. We require that everyone tries to make decent use of the English language. We know not everyone has a native English tongue, but this does not matter, a spelling mistake is allowed, we all make it. After all, American and British English do have their own differences in spelling. We would just like to have readable posts on MWG. Thus, we cannot accept any gibberish. “U” is a letter and not a word. 2.1.3 Willingness to learn We are an open minded community, where people help each other. You're free to make a thread whenever you need help, but please show that you are doing something with the replies you receive. More experienced members might reply on your thread with useful information. Try to use it and do not just ignore it. Members might pick up on your ignorance and decide not to respond to your later threads. And you can't really blame them in such situation can we? 2.1.4 Reply and answer When making a new thread, be patient for an answer. You can be sure that you will receive a reply quickly enough if the thread is supplied with enough information. When answering to a thread, we would like to ask that you are informative. If you have taken any information online, or know that certain informative places exist, try to add a link back to the place in question, like a link back to an article or a manual. When you are copying a reply from a site, give the original author credit, you are required to add a link back. Otherwise it's just optional. 2.1.5 Begging We will not tolerate any begging.   2.2 Posting Guidelines 2.2.0 Before you post Search around via either the forum search option (or google). We are willing to help, but your issue might already be covered in an article or in the manual itself. For all we know, your issue might be fixed at this point! Instant fix, rather quick, right? 2.2.1 Selecting the right place to post. Selecting the correct place to make your post is vital to our community. A post about subject X should be located as close as possible to subject X, and not somewhere between posts on subject Y. A popular item is “MCCodes”, the only acceptable place for posts about “MCCodes” is in the MCCode board and no place else. Common sense would also define that java does not have a place in here. 2.2.2 Thread titles By choosing a correct title, every reader knows immediately what your thread will be about. This is rather important on a forum that offers quite a bit. We would like to ask you to make a brief, yet descriptive thread title. "Error Plz Help!!!!!!!!!" will get you nowhere. No one can guess what issue you have with that. We feel that threads like this do no longer have a place on here and will be archived/deleted on sight. Having a thread title like "Registration error: date of birth not inserted" will tell everyone what your issue is, while they do not have to open your thread yet. 2.2.3 Thread content The most important part of the whole thread in question is the post that starts the thread. Describe your problem with any information you might have. The more information you can supply the easier it is for someone else to reply to your issue and answer to it as soon as possible. When you are posting about a technical problem – something that doesn't work – we would like to ask that you also add all information about which steps or actions you have taken already. This to avoid a suggestion of something which you have done already. When creating a comparison between two technologies, state your facts, show your research, tell what and why. We would love to see more healthy discussions and comparisons between technologies but the discussion needs to stay healthy and pleasant to read. There is nothing more annoying than reading a thread full of bashing or "mine is better than yours" reactions without unbiased opinions and facts. Be descriptive, share the information! 2.2.4 Replying to a thread We would like to encourage everyone to reply to a thread, however, do this with respect to the thread starter. Nothing is more annoying than getting a reply that is “of no use”. With no use, we mean posts that are (completely) off topic, spam, advertising, ... These posts will be deleted (2.2.5) Posts that are relative to the thread and might be helpful are not considered “of no use”. Whether they are helpful or not, is a different situation, but STAY ON TOPIC. If you're unsure what this is, look at the very first posts. Discussions about something else should not take place in said thread, start a new one instead. 2.2.5 SPAM / Off topic Posts will be deleted at sight, the user might be warned or banned considering the situation. 2.2.6 Promoting / Advertising Promoting or advertising your services or products is allowed, but only in those boards that serve that purpose. In all other situations it will be considered SPAM or off topic (2.2.5). 2.2.7 Double posts/threads Double posts/threads are not done. When you create a double thread, ask to delete one or you might lose both. 2.2.8 Old threads Leave old threads for what they are. We leave them open and unarchived for the case that someone does have a specific reason to post there, like an issue that grew out of said thread. In such situation we do not mind. We feel like that a solution, or a “cool it works”-reply to a two year old thread isn't needed anymore. So please, refrain from replying to an old, ancient thread unless you have a very good reason to do so. 2.2.9 Bumping Bumping is allowed, but as we have said before (2.1.1), please show respect and patience. Bumping a thread is allowed after 48 hours. 2.2.10 What can I (not) post? By default everything is allowed, as long as it's posted correctly and not one of the following * Adult material * Copyrighted material without permission * Damaging material (trojans, viruses,...) * Harassment * Illegal Behaviour * Illegal Software * Obscene language * Violence * Warez If you are unsure, ask a staff member prior to posting 2.3 User Profiles & Signature 2.3.1 User Signature Please keep your signature to 5 lines MAXIMUM, preferably less. This to prevent threads where there is more to read in a profile signatures than in the actual posts itself. Allowing 5 lines should be more than enough to suite all needs.

well I don't really know what you are currently planning to build, so I can't really tell what I would like to see, but I think the words speak for themselves, or at least enough to get an idea.

No one was telling you off The Spirit, it was a generalisation of the latest trend. That's why I split the topic and moved that part to this new thread.
