Casey Posted May 21, 2011 Posted May 21, 2011 Crons every time it comes up with Path to the script cannot contain any special symbols or whitespaces Quote
Dominion Posted May 21, 2011 Posted May 21, 2011 000webhost doesn't allow the "?" in the path(on free accounts). Someone can correct me if I am wrong. Also I believe running a game may be against the terms, and conditions. I would check that. Quote
Danny696 Posted May 22, 2011 Posted May 22, 2011 I suggest using a paid host, such as W3Theory, owned by peter and equinox on here, (Link can be found in my sig.) I doubt you'll find a free host giving you everything you need for a game. Or use a localhost service, such as WAMP, LAMP, or XAMP. For developing purposes. Quote
Dave Posted May 22, 2011 Posted May 22, 2011 You could also check out our web hosting section on this forum. There are some reviews and other people offering services which may interest you. http://makewebgames.io/forumdisplay.php/363-Web-hosting Quote
realmoflegends Posted May 22, 2011 Posted May 22, 2011 McCodes is one of those web apps where the quality of the host can impact the playing (and development) experience of the whole thing (the Magento shopping cart is another). Putting a busy game on a free host is usually not a good idea long-term. Quote
realmoflegends Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Heh, the script itself is wonderful and makes it easy to put together a very nice store, but if you try to run a store with it on a crappy (or even just a so-so) host, you'll be rewarded with page slowness, errors and problems. It tends to be a memory hog. McCodes can be a little the same way. I moved my upcoming MCC-based game to much better hosting than I had as I approach beta, and its like night and day. Pages pop up quickly and smoothly, no lag at all. Quote
rulerofzu Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 It tends to be a memory hog as its poorly scripted there is no reason for php to be having to use a significant amount of memory. For example why combine the css if your then not going to minify it and then still use the origingal css files anyway. Which ive seen in action in a fresh install of magento. I dont know if that happens on the over priced enterprise versions but it certainly does on the community. Anyhow going off topic :D Quote
