Text RPG

[Hypertext]

Ok, I'm thinking of making a textbased RPG I can provide costs I have £70 to get it started.. which is enough or a good host etc.. But I need help I can Program PHP But not very well, i'd need help nothing to big, to be honest it's a bit of a rip / copying idea off of 'Kings of Chaos' It basially works like that but you can have a items & weapons and you can equip armor etc.. to your character.. I will need help though, if anyone can program for me for free.. you'll also be an administrator and get credit when you sign up in the T&Cs your names will be there.So PHP DESIGNERS PLEASE POST HERE!
Note if your just here to rip don't bother replyin do not slate ideas please, there is no point. Thankyou

Is it just going to fail like your other 2 RPG ideas? :rolleyes:

For the final time; A teenager cant make a fully-functional (MMO)RPG game.

Oh and £70 wont get you far x

If your an Okish coder yourself, why not just start doing it yourself, if you get stuck, post specific problems and quearts here and people will for the most part be happy to help you out. If you want someone to do pretty much the whole thing for you, your posting in the wrong forum, you want ether requests or staff to hire a coder.

and a forum will?

k lol all i have to do is have it hosted and thats really about it.. I need help not bloody slaters.

[Invent]

What are you on about?

And hosting for a POPULAR RPG Game will cost around £30-£200 p/m for a GOOD reliable server. (You would have to go dedi.)

[Hypertext]

entor you' just about the only perso who can say that CC cuz u have an extremelywell programmed PHP functional site. the rest of just slate everything
And by the soundof EVERYONE its not very popular so far..

Your attitude has failed you already.

No, really.

Talking like that to someone wont get you far. If a businessman is trying to hire an employee, does he shout in his face and yet expect him to work for him? Er.. no?

[Invent]

I dont slate everything. I slate things which havnt been thought-out well. An idea of this scale would take around 3-5 months PRE planning.

Oh and I can code in PHP so yeah...

Indeed hosting a popular RPG will cost that much, infact a really popular one will cost a massive amount more, but RPG's don't magically become super popular over night, even myspace didnt. They start small, a few users don't use much bandwidth, it gets more popular, it grows, more bandwidth is used, but more ad revenue is made. When it gets quite popular, yes he may need a more powerful host/server. But until then a nice small one will do just fine o.0 RPG's popularty grows, as does the specs required to run them, idealy the server used should grow in capatabilty at a simlar pace. But why put in invest in an infulstruture you dont need.

Hit the nail on the head there Simon. :)

[LondonGoons]

Well i posted as in saying, don't rip games ( not saying you would or woulden't) as some person called kyle already ripped games on this forum and text based games and got caught, and nearly big actions nearly happened to him.

Thanks for your rep i will get it removed it invalid and pointless rep.
thanks.

-Unpredictible.

[ScottDiamond]

o.0 Youve never had a job have you :p

You've not caught my tail, sir.

If you want to sell a car and shout at the guy your selling it to, is he going to buy it?

:)

[Invent]

But thats a sales pitch, he isnt trying to sell the users anything. He is trying to give them a job, therefore acting like a boss who are very rude lol :P

[Hypertext]

Im not usually like tht but i did say and instantly i got slated. anyway is there anyone that would help out?

[Invent]

There are a few more slates needed before someone may actually help you (its the the forum rules that we have to give you atleast 7 slates). So I might aswell do a few in this post:

- Will you ever offer pay?
- What are you going to do?
- Are you just going to do nothing and take the glory?

[Hypertext]

Ill use whateve left from hosting to pay 2 people hosting probs around £30 so around £40. Im going to do templates css & html & graphics & ill tell you what to do. not as in what but what and how to code certain pags about 12 dynamic pages will be needed. Im not everyone will share equal credit It will be done through a team name then in the team i will also say what we all did in the project each you will all also have a staff profile of what you did who you are and what you've dne

???????????????????????????????
comon guys jeez

[Invent]

Calm down...

[Hypertext]

dya wanna? help..

[Splinter]

Im getting abit fed up with 7 year olds with abit of money thinking that they can order people with sode coding knowledge around just because they have bought a host?? Sort it out!

[Hypertext]

lol im asking fo hlp not ordering

Let's all have a nice cheering up by looking at Noddy.

Anyway, plan it out and follow Carl's advice. :)

[Hypertext]

i have habbouncovered.co.uk/mmorpg ill buy a domain today also im selling habbouncovered.co.uk Domain? anyone want?

[Oni]

It isnt hard to make a text rpg you can use normal hosting and you can download the coding [although it will probably be rubbish] but getting the game popular and used is hard as text is boring most people would rather play runescape or something.

[Hypertext]

yeh but like hundreds of ppl in my skwl'll sign up. :D

[Sygon..]

If i had the interest in making one it would cost me like $10 a month to run -.-' no need for a server

[OoGregoryoO]

Why Do All Of You Just Post To Like **** Him Off And Make It Look Like Its Impossible Ill Help You Mate Im An Ok With Php And All That!

anyway once a few more features are added etc.. ill buy a proper domain checkit out right now though.. and FTR who said a mmorpg'd cost 30-200 quid a month so far 0. and later today - tommorow £7.99(I already have hosting) :PP and who said a 13 year ol cudnt completely remake a dull literal attack monster game turned it into a guild weilding, monstr attacking, land bearing, fort doing MMORPG! There you have it, I think a few people owe me an apology also.. is $end a non creatable variabl my mates php has fatal error to do with a non-created

[ScottDiamond]

I'd love to see how many hit's you'd get. I only read the parts of your post I could read, with difficulties.

Dude a child CAN'T make a fully-functional MMORPG.

But a child CAN download a pre-made free-to-use MMORPG Text game.

[Oni]

Well a child can if he learns properly but the fact of the matter is

No but it would take you 10 years, 9 years to find your brain and then 1 to use it.

You've been learning PHP for 2 years...

Si - how long have you?

I know of a child who can write his own operating systems and is 8? hes the kid of a computer science lecturer though, whom is somewhat fanatical o.0 which may explain it.

Plus ive been capable of making one for a few years now, it just never took my fancy, o.0 Php only takes a few months to get to grips with at max

[Hypertext]

exactly. 10 years he thought.. Lolssss... i've been doing it for a yea, not hardcore tho // So i'm able to right quite good stuff what I love about php is Cutting your code short eg yu make a variable = $footer in a file say footer.php then include it in index.php & echo the footer.. it's just great...

includeing header/footer for multiple pages is a little bit basic for my needs, i updated thybag to a modular arcutecture and seperated the skinning features so basically the pages themselves just contain the content and a few varibles defining how there to be skined, when loaded a function is envoked that applys the skinning to them, which means i can quite easy allow thybag to run on multiple skins, with vastly different html/css source formating documents :D

I just explainingmy fav things PHP

[Invent]

When have I said it takes 10 years?

I've been learning PHP for just under a year and I know a lot.

[Mr.OSH]

Right, basically you want to make a game right? Unfortunately for you, you can't be bothered and won't learn PHP properly yourself and would rather have someone else do it? Anyone can do anything they like more or less if they work at it. If you want to build word processing software you can do it, if you want to build a game you can do it, but it takes time. It doesn't happen over night. My advice to you is forget the game, spend a while learning PHP (if your not an idiot should only take a few months to grip it) and then build it slowly, take your time and look into how these things are built. In the end you will feel allot more satisfaction from the fact you built it on your own and not someone you paid.

Hope that helped you to some extent. :)

Im 14 and I know PHP well but im no pro.

Im talking about becoming a professional coder. Im not just talking about being able to create a DJ Panel like what me & Dan are doing.

Im talking about creating a massive multiplayer game (MMORPG).

That would take years..

[Mr.OSH]

Indeed but the more time you spend and the more effort you put in generally the more you get out. :)

Actually, so far 4 hours has produced a basic game engine, although theres probably a day or so's work left in it, the movement algorithm's object avoidance routeens still need alot of work, plus i need to build in the chat server on top, and finish designing the item object structure.

Granted, the current alpha isnt particaly massive, the testing room only supports about 20 or so people max.

Although ive been consiering adopting some codeing from the Freevolution isometric game engine to really make it massive + add a proximity based data input system, to lower server strain... although thats someway off :p

Yes but it all depends on ability and knowledge.

Being a member of this forum for way over a year now almost 2, i think this is another 1 of them time wasters, if you have been here long enough you would have seen SO MANY of these idea's fail :)

There seems to be a lot of people making these! Although, good luck and hope it works out.

And we all remember jango city lol. If i created an MMORPG I would create it in flash as you can add iso easy and its easier to add features.

you should still make jango, i wont mind giving ya a hand

[Oni]

I would if i could [I dont have a server]. I did actually get pretty far into development with it but i dunno where the file is lol.

[Colin-Roberts]

lol jango good times. you should bring it back i'd help again

[Oni]

If i had a server i would, ah that was fun.

[Colin-Roberts]

what specs of server i may be able to get my hands on one..

[Oni]

what specs of server i may be able to get my hands on one..
Not high as flash files are extremely small so it would use up very little BW and Space all it needs is the ability to install programs on it.

[Colin-Roberts]

kk ill look into it

[Oni]

kk ill look into it
kk ty, I wouldnt call it jango though lol it sounds horrible
