1. OK, so yeah, since I cant be bothered signing up on this forum, Alex posted this for me.
2. For all of you who say that it will fail, by judging the website, you obviously have no idea about the market.
3. The games quality doesn't relate to the current website, yet, that website is being scrapped while we get another one designed, sliced and coded.
4. I offered to revamp it, then Alex informed me someone else was on the job, and I can just say that it is looking great. The client should be ready by monday, if not, tuesday.
5. As Alex said, all that's left to do is bots and female avatar choices, these take about an hour to two hours for me. And to Dentafrice, about the server failing in Visual Basic,
6. it wont. Here are my reasons:
7. A) We wont be having that many people online at a time
8. B) The Visual Basic server is temporary, until I can be bothered to learn Java or ill start on level C++ sockets.
9. C) It is well written, fast and stable. I wrote it using classes, much faster than static BASIC programming.
10. So yes, you will have to wait until we release the client before judging. The website can be ignored, its being scrapped as stated above.
11. Now, to all those who think this is just an edited retro....
12. You make me laugh, because:
13. A) Your immature thinking this
14. B) You must know nothing about Shockwave movie development or Habbo's code itself.
15. Now, the reason I state B, is because our art is quite small, because we want a mini-IMCE, if that makes sense.
16. We wouldnt be able to resize and edit the scripts since the scripts are blanked out when decompiling. And believe it or not, the scripts drive Habbo's engine.
17. Sorry to sound cocky, but its the truth. Ive been learning Java to add on to my skillset, yet, not long enough to be confident enough to efficiently program a
18. server to handle a project like this. I have known BASIC for years now.

That shows a lot about the effort that you are putting in and your maturity

You've just gone directly against yourself, congrats.

I couldnt be bothered signing up because of the 15 posts before no moderation rule. I said i couldnt be bothered because i just got sick of it. Sorry, but Javas syntax is very ugly in my eyes. I cant say much considering C++ and lingo arent the most beautiful languages out there, but still. Alex didnt post that right either, the line numbers arent supposed to be there.

Do you have any idea how to use bullet points/numbers to list things?

No, it's going to fail. VB has an awful exception handling system. You're going to have unhandled exceptions constantly.

Congratulations, you wrote it in classes in VISUAL BASIC. That's like living in a shack, and putting a big screen TV in it.. it's still a shack! Just like Visual Basic is still crap for what you're doing.

If you know C++ so well, why didn't you create a socket server in it, in the first place, instead of VB?

If you're not going to have "that many people online at a time", are you going to limit the users to like.. 5 at a time? Because that's about all a VB server can handle.

Are you hosting it on a VPS, or a computer? If computer, good luck. If VPS, good luck. It's going to not work either way.

For all of you who say that it will fail, by judging the website, you obviously have no idea about the market.

This just proves you're have an idiotic mindpoint. You're coming to a Design & Development section of a forum, about websites, saying that we don't know anything about the market.

I believe it's you who has no idea about the market.

Looks are everything. If someone comes to your website, and it looks like absolute crap (like it does right now), what makes them want to click on the client? Nothing.

You have 5 seconds to impress someone, and if it looks like crap, you just ruined your 5 seconds.

So yes, you judge projects "based on their website", because that shows the dedication that goes into the front end of the project, and this project has no dedication to the front end, and no experience in a project like this.

You don't release a crappy looking site like that; it ruins your image. You always wait and have something finished before you release a website. Or at least a splash page.

Indeed. Visual basic will just give you loads of runtime errors and problems in the long term. You're better off starting from scratch with Java or C.

Why is the layout a copy and paste job from an old Bitty Bay fansite, I'd love to know.

LOL, http://williamrobin.info/blog/work.php, Hmmmm? he uses stolen work?

And judging a website: A website gives the first impression now it looks tatty, and i dont want to visit it again.

No, William just coded the layout. This layout was drawn from Photoshop CS3.

Willy only coded the layout, he didnt design it.

Closed alpha sign-ups are expected to be available this saturday.

All we need left to code is:
*Bots
*Adding in a choice if you want to be a female

We than should be ready for our first release.

The purpose of the game is for you not to waste your money on some fake coins that only give you a piece of pixel. I think it's worthless and I'm guessing most everyone else thinks so too.

Btw, I'm 14, Dom C.

Yes but surely in a business (Which is what this site should be), you want to make money. Have you seen people on habbo have "a lot" no one would have anything if nobody bought furni..
