[Zero Tolerance]

A simple restoration done to the RPG. This is the first 'ITech' release here by our programmers, but there are more to come (including a couple from myself..). So please before anyone worries, this is a legit release :)

Enjoy everyone!

- Zero Tolerance

[zhabbo]

Thanks will try soon

[abdulla1]

what does this mod do?

[Nimrod.]

I had previously installed the 2.4 lite version on my board, but it never worked. Does this have an updated or code fixes?

That's correct, this has been designed to work for vB 3.6.x boards, so we've altered the coding slightly in this release to do that and fix known issues :)

- Zero Tolerance

[Inferno Tech]

Abdulla1 this is an RPG mod, it lets your members battle monsters and each other, buy weapons and armour, earn money in game and by posting etc. You can use it to create your very own RPG game for your forums. If you like it you can buy the full version and updated versions at the website in my signature

I installed the Lite version and had a play, my members were liking it but moaning on the lack of features, so I went and got the full version.

Read the Non-Fresh install txt and did what it said. Imported a starter pack and began test battle with AI bot. Massive template issue that you can see on the attached images.

This problem only occurs on the battle screen. Strangely it's listing I have Lite and normal installed, when on import of the product (full) I told it to overwrite anything it needed to upgrade.

I tried removing the product and then reinstalling but same issue on battle screen.

[v12kid]

not to get off topic but where can I get the full version?

Thanks for releasing this mod, even in the lite form I am sure many forums will find it useful.

[username12]

Good to see. I'd given up on checking whether the website would ever be back up (at second glance, it's been up all along, but I haven't been able to access it for months).

[Zadine]

not to get off topic but where can I get the full version?

Thanks for releasing this mod, even in the lite form I am sure many forums will find it useful.

You can get it from thier site http://infernotechnologies.net

[Mrdby]

anybody with a live and working demo?

[Zadine]

You can check v3 at http://gzevolution.net/ but not sure if anyone still uses v2.4

[Inferno Tech]

hmm does the lite version come with a gil hack for money when posting in threads ect?

Answered by PM, yes it does come with the gil hack installed which is admin definable for the amount and money name, as for the stats hack i am starting work on releasing that as n add-on for 2.4 Lite.

Hey im trying to install, but whne I make the new task it tells me to fill in all the info, But in the fresh install text it doesnt give me all the info I need. Anyone help?

dude, this is amazing! 10/10 thx
also, is there any place that i can get a version with spells, equips, bots, etc etc?

[Inferno Tech]

unfortunatly the lite version has had the uploader/importer removed but if you are looking for sites that have 2.4 setup for you to look at what you need to do then you could just google RPG Inferno 2.4

Acid Burn - Inferno Technologies Developer

[abramelin]

what is the last version of rpg inferno? 2.4?

[Inferno Tech]

the latest version of RPG Inferno is V3 soon to be the gold edition, information on v3 along with all other Inferno Technologies mod is here (http://infernotechnologies.net)

Having a problem getting the scan.gif to show up in postbit! scan.gif is in its inferno folder, a little bit of advice?
This is what I added to the postbit_legacy...

<a href='inferno.php?$session[sessionurl]&do=ScanMember&id={$post[userid]}'>Scan {$post[username]}</a><br />

[Skavenger]

Try this
<a href='inferno.php?$session[sessionurl]&do=ScanMember&id={$post[userid]}'><img src="images/scan.gif" border="0" alt="Scan {$post[username]}" /></a><br />

[johnrizz]

Ok very good! thanks for the help! I replaced it with what you gave me, I also had to move the scan.gif from the inferno folder to the image directory, that did it...
Thanks again!

[Shazz]

Zero!
Looks good :)
Nice to see you back

[johnrizz]

dude, this is amazing! 10/10 thx

Here's a pretty good lay out of the game, spells, equips, bots, help, etc etc

Thanks again!

I don't know where the scan.gif image is located because I did not try this hack, but you can move the image to the original folder and change the path to it in the code I gave you

[Spin Doctor]

does this require a cash system?

[Inferno Tech]

no it doesn't require a cash system as it has it's own already written into the hack

Acid Burn - Inferno Technologies Developer

[Spin Doctor]

brilliant! just installed it

however having some troubles
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=1246708#post1246708

[Inferno Tech]

first off that isn't an RPG Inferno forum lol and secondly the jobs use an evolution step system, so jobs must be "chained". Example:

Mage -[Evolves To]> Wizzard -[Evolves To]> White Wizzard

Minimum chain length must be 2, if invalid chains are created, no jobs show or the jobs page may not load at all.

Acid Burn - Inferno Technologies Developer

[Spin Doctor]

hahahaahahahhaha oh my, how stupid of me......

hmmmm yeh i have 2 jobs set up that chain to each other.......no dice tho

[Spin Doctor]

oh silly mistake! i fixed it......thanks! you're a legend, dope hack, i will deff consider buying the full version

[Inferno Tech]

Well we are just putting the finishing touches to the full version to make it work properly with vb3.6 but there is also RPG Infeno v3 that is available for vb3.6 which has alot more features available.

Acid Burn - Inferno Technologies Developer

[Spin Doctor]

do u use msn/aim bro?

[Inferno Tech]

I only have MSN and i PM'd you it but add it if you wish, just wondering but what was it that you did to solve your problem?

Acid Burn - Inferno Technologies Developer

[Spin Doctor]

get an error at top of screen of my battles

Warning: Division by zero in /Inferno/system/engine.system.php on line 43

weird....battle still runs smooth

[Inferno Tech]

basically that error is coming up because either one of your stats, or an opponent's stats is set at 0, if you increase it to 1 or higher then that warning message will not appear

thx m8 :)

[Spin Doctor]

thanks!

[GrendelKhan{TSU]

ok. . . sorry for this n00b of n00b questions...

problem is...
what does does the RPG acxtually do? doesn't actgually say that anywhere. the few listed features don't actually give the BIG picture, just lists some stuff that might sound interesting if I understood what the basic concept was.

hospital!! cool!! er... ok... so? hospital for what?
clans!! yay!! I have a gaming clan site...does that mean I should be interested?


I get that its supposedly a role playing game (hence RPG)? er... ok. I got mini RPG flash games installed in the arcade, but I assume its not like that.

but... how? or WHAT THE HECK DOES IT DO? in the "real" day-to-day ...why would my forum members care way?

again,

[Inferno Tech]

Well the basic premise is this :

Your forum members create a character, give him a name, choose a class/job etc.

After this they choose monsters to fight in the RPG and can use the features that are listed, they can buy weapons, armour etc, battle other members, or battle AI monsters. This levels them up etc etc, just like a normal RPG, which lets them fight tougher monsters, get more gold, become the most powerful player etc etc.

Version 3, the most current version, expands on this. It lets you create places, so people can travel from town to town, to cities, villages, caves etc, wih a chance of encountering monsters on the way, you can set the mquests, there are NPCs to talk to to tell you interesting things, you can create your own weapons, and embark on huge quests, and the aim of v3 isnt so much have the most gold or be the best player, but try to get to the end of the game, follow the storyline, find the best stuff to make weapons and armour and stuff with, find books with stories, learn about the world, THEN try to become the strongeest, much like a normal MMORPG i.e WoW.

The unique thing is all the stuff your members can do, YOU make it, so you can make weapons, you make the quests, you can make the story, all that kind of thing. I think just now the total number of sites with some version of RPG Inferno installed is a few thousand, and everyone seems to really like it, and i dont think there is one site where it hasnt increased the length of time members stay on the forums, or the traffic. If nothing else it means people have something to do while waiting for replies to their threads, and a lot of forums tie it in with text based RPs, or if they play a game, tie it in with that.

So, for instance, you could tie it in with UT, make the weapons flak cannons, bio rifles, rocket launchers etc etc, and the AI bots UT characters, like Lauren, Brock etc etc

I hope that helped to clear things up. There is a Demo on our website and you can try out the ACP side of things, or you can register at our forums - http://forums.gzevolution.net and play the game as a forum member there.

If there are any other questions, feel free to ask :)

Basically what the error is stating is that the table inferno_attack already exists within the database, so if you run http://YOURSITE.com/Forum/admincp/rpginferno_uninstallation.php to remove the Inferno files.
Once you have done that go http://YOURSITE.com/Forum/admincp/rpginferno_installation.php and let it install and there should be no problems

omg THANK YOU!! that is VERY helpful and puts everything into context for those of us who just had to gleen what it actually was from posts.

you should put that summary in the first post or link to it at least. not everyone (or MOST ppl?) might not acgtually know what it is otherwise. ;)

question:
how does this effect serverload? seems like it would be a pretty heavy addon.

eitherway... gunna test it out.... great job!! :D:cool:

[Inferno Tech]

any ideas if this has been tested on 3.6.6?
It hasnt been tested on 3.6.6 fully yet but so far there seems to be no problems in it's ability to work wih it.

It doesnt seem to affect server loads much if anything.

[Inferno Tech]

Yes it does have the ability for PvP (Player Vs Player) battles.

Inferno Tech aka Zero Tolerance?
So people may feel comforatable in using the hack :)

[Inferno Tech]

Read the first reply lol, Inferno Tech is the company Zero Tolerance Co-Owns - Inferno Technologies, all of the companies releases will be under this name, including his, as will support but Zero Tolerance will give his own support under his name.

awesome hack .

sorted out my problems and works perfectly.

10/10 well done guys!

[gray]

Couple of questions:

How easy would it be for someone with basic coding knowledge and intermediate knowledge of vBulletin to integrate this with an existing cash mod, is it as simple as directing the mod to a different table?

Secondly, if a website wanted to advertise this as it's own entity, designing a GUI outside of the forum as a placeholder with it's own domain and whatnot, would this break the licence agreement? Obviously all copyright notices will be kept.

There should be no problem for you to be able to do that modification, maybe if you could say what the cash mod is, it would be possible to help better.

define what you mean by "it's own entity" and that would need to be discussed with Zero Tolerance as he is the copyright holder

We use vBux modified to remove the security issues.

Acid Burn - Inferno Technologies Developer

Basically as a website not a forum attachment, it's an extremely powerful modification that simply runs off the vBulletin database. I don't see why it should be confined to residing only as a sub-directory on a forum, I think it could do well as a website with a forum attached.

It would mean from our end customising it to fit within a web page, instead of a form within a forum... but regardless it would essentially look the same.

[Bod1968]

I've installed it and its looking great but I'm unsure what to do next setting it up etc? I see all the graphics etc but do I have to ADD them all myself? Thats going to be a big job! lol

[Inferno Tech]

Right i personally dont see why you would need to incorporate vBux as i believe the money manager within Inferno covers the same things as vBux

Unfortunatly with 2.4 lite yes you do need to add what ones you want yourself

Acid Burn - Inferno Technologies Developer

[Inferno Tech]

@gray - so long as the copyright is not removed or modified, you can convert 2.4 to work from a standalone webpage

- Decado, Inferno Technologies Co-Owner

[gray]

That clears that up. Thank you.

With regards to the vBux thing, I have an active community using our own currency for user changes etc, really I would like to have one global currency instead of having to have one for this mod and one for the forum shop.

[GrendelKhan{TSU]

Personally, i don't see that there will be a problem with that but i would need to have a word with the rest of the team before i could give you a definative answer.

so you can use gil money from the game to say... buy a glowing username in teh forums or gifts for one's postbit ? :confused:

Played around a bit with it on gzevolution... interesting. but didn't really see all the options you are mentioning and a little confusing to use outta the gate (some minor navigations issues imo)

but started to fun once I could kill a imp easier. :D heh. in any case, people on my board have already expressed a lot of interest in it... so just a some questions before purchasing (no lite for me).


how big is it? I mean is open ended...or can you "win/finish" it? then what?
I noticed in the ACP... great aomunot of controls and customization possible which is great! but though I noticed you can ADD PLACES ... can you change the default world map? Like if I wanted to be ...er... in space or something? UT or sci-fi stuff wouldn't really go with the based RPG map.
so you can use gil for forum enhancement purchases? like glow, bold and colored user names (vbux does that), or buying gifts that you see in your postbit.
thanks agains for your replies and GREAT MOD in any case. :) :D

[Inferno Tech]

Within 2.4 yes you can and the reasons why you cannot find any of the features mentioned on gzevolution is because the features mentioned are for 2.4 whilst gzevolution runs on v3 of RPG Inferno.
As for how big is it.... it is as big as you want to make it, thats one of v3's best features is that you the admin chooses what you want to happen. And no it isnt difficult to create your own stuff for it either.

wow! fast response. thatnks!... lol and I was editing my questions and your replied while I was doing so. :p :o (btw, is the acp demo for v3 or v2.4?)

anyway, here's the what I changed to (after checking out acp in your demo board):

looked at the ACP... great amount of controls and customization possible which is great!!! however, I noticed that you can ADD PLACES but couldn't see if you change the default world map? Like if I wanted to be ...er... in space or something is that possible? (eg: UT or sci-fi stuff wouldn't really go with the based RPG map.)

[Inferno Tech]

To change the worldmap you just need to upload a ne file called worldmap.jpg within the Inferno file.
Also the admin demo is v3

I am getting ready to buy the full version, anyway I was wondering if you guys offer custom work... like actually creating the characters, games, etc.

We have a gaming forum, and would like to mock a certain game... anyway if you guys do custom work please PM me and I will send you the details at what I am looking for.

Thanks.

[Inferno Tech]

Currently no, we do not. We will be releasing theme packs for v3 soon however. We take suggestions, but we don't do any to exact specifications.

[rjp0615]

ok, i got a problem... installing this on 3.6.7 PL1, i got a db error when trying to access the installation file. can someone assist me?

[GrendelKhan{TSU]

Currently no, we do not. We will be releasing theme packs for v3 soon however. We take suggestions, but we don't do any to exact specifications.

cool!! that'd be great. maybe make some baseline so its easy for customers to make and share their own themes and RPGs as well. kinda like a modders community for inferno vbRPG. :D


SUGGESTION for next theme pack:

sci-fi theme pack (star wars/star trek/or any space oriented game-- like UT, Halo, Quake, etc etc) you already have a fantasy one. Sci-fi oriented one would be the next obvious one. :)

[Inferno Tech]

ok, i got a problem... installing this on 3.6.7 PL1, i got a db error when trying to access the installation file. can someone assist me?

Thankyou for this, we havent tested it with 3.6.7 as of yet, could you please let us know what the error was and we can justify it.

[v12kid]

Got it installed on my 3.65 forum and its an incredible piece of work. Very robust in many areas. It was so impressive I bought the updated full version!

Its beyond my scope of skill as far getting it setup for play so I will post a wanted help thread later in the Pay for help forums but even so I am very excited about this!

You guys did an amazing job and I know you are working on other mods and updates for this. Cant wait to see those!

*edit*

works now, dont no why though :P

[Inferno Tech]

That problem would have been a problem with your php distrribution, it may have been restarting or being upgraded, not sure though apart from it isn't an error on our side

ok just downloaded and installed on 3.6.7

been playing around with it, and this is pretty damn cool :)

one question though, when creating a RPG profile. How hard would it be to add/edit the existing inputs that are there? Like say i wanted to remove/change the "Character Alignment" and make it something else like light and dark side, sort of a more star-wars related theme, instead of good and evil?

If this isn't too hard to do, how would one go about doing this?

And can this be done in the full version?... if this is possible, i will certainly buy the full verson :)

This is pretty damn cool tho :p

[Inferno Tech]

to find out what phrases to change, the easiest way would be go Languages & Phrases->Search In Templates and search for inferno and select Phrase Variable only

Am very unimpressed with the support, I feel like my money has been wasted, what's more, it was user donated money to get this plugin up.

I don't see that it's too much to ask to have instructions how to integrate this with an existing cash system.

I could probably understand if I wasn't having to pay for it, but if you're going to charge for your work a level of service is expected.

[Inferno Tech]

Gray if you do a search on the support forums, which you currently have access to, you should find an answer to that question :) Support for paid versions is given there, not here.

Secondly, we offer support, however i do not understand why you feel this should extend to us telling you how to modify the product. If you buy a playstation game from a store, do you expect support from sony on how to make it run on an X-Box? Do you expect the helplines to tell you how to modify the game?

You do not, therfore i feel it is unfair that you should somehow see us as lesser to them simply because we do not sell in retail outlets.

Paying for a product does not automatically entitle you the right to an answer to any question about how to do anything with the product. If you have a problem, we will fix it, if there is a bug, we will fix it, if you cannot get it running, we will help you. We do not have time to mod it for everyone who asks however. :)

I hope you understand that we will do everything we can to make sure the product works for you, but we are not obliged to tell you how to do things the system was not designed for, if you want to do something it was not designed for, then you should ask on a place like vb.org.

Try emailing Jelsoft, and asking them how to migrate their posts to work on IPB, or something similar. They won't answer your request, will i see a similar vitriol agaisnt Jelsoft? I doubt it. Just because we are a small company, does not give you the right to treat us badly just because you bought something from us.

Thanks for listening,

If you want to start claiming you own a "business" you should learn the first rule of any, and that is that the customer is always right.

If you insist on charging for a watered-down level 2 service which is basically an expansion on previously free mods that are now out of date, due to patch releases, then you should think about having it fully integratable in the first place.

It strikes me as utterly stupid that you would sell this without stating that unlike nearly every cash-orientated mod out there THIS ONE doesn't intergrate with any of them, and then having CLOSED support forums so anyone wanting to buy the plugin can't even check if this is a resolved issue.

You are selling a product to customers, and a customer has complained that the product is not up to scratch in comparison to all the other (might I add mainly free) products on the market. This is perfectly acceptable, I'm not asking for you to make the mod cook my dinner for me, I'm asking you why it doesn't do the function of most releases out there, and then even telling you that if you give me the correct references I would do it myself. But that's too much for you.

And no, you're wrong, there is no existing support for what I need, as I've already checked and checked again... all it consists of is promises of "soon to be released" or "coming with next patch" (which will probably cost extra).

You've been nothing but useless and to be honest your last reply is pathetic and is the reason why your support is so poor, you expect to charge everyone for it then leave it at that, and that isn't how any economy works. You don't deserve to charge for your products.

I will be contacting you for a refund.

[Zero Tolerance]

I should note, development on v2.4 was frozen long ago. We offer it seperately for those who prefer 2.4 over version 3, instead of paying for v3 just to obtain 2.4 :)

Support doesn't cost anything, as for integration, the system simply wasn't designed for this, you can blame me for that, but a 3rd party system with money integration would mess the game up (in the sense of balance anyway). Also as Decado noted, support forums aren't here, unfortunately we can't keep our eyes everywhere :)

As for the references you asked for, I believe they were given to you? If not:
Table: inferno_user
Field: money

I can honestly say we've never charged existing clients for new releases, wether it bug releases or feature updates/upgrades, even users from the original system still get the latest updates without paying anything extra.

You're entitled to your opinion I guess, if you have anything further to add to the matter feel free.

Thanks for the more helpful reply, I appreciate it.

Does v3 work with 3.6.6? And does it offer this integration? Or if not how soon would that be?

[Inferno Tech]

yes v3 is available on 3.6.6 due to the fact that it is still under development and i believe the details were sent to you gray by me, if not then i apologise. As for integration it may be available for the gold release that is soon to be released. As for v2.4 if you wish to make a feautre request then please go to the Inferno Support section of GZ|E and we will see what we can do.

have you made the mod to display the stats on the user area when they post a comment yet?

Acid Burn - Inferno Technologies Developer

[v5etboyphc]

well when i check he still hasn't accept... but from what he said.. he did click the accept.

[DementedMindz]

I would have to say I'm highly disappointed with the paid version of this. The support they offer is terrible, it don't have a uninstaller so if something goes wrong you need to remove it via phpmyadmin, you email them they dont answer you back but yet you see them having a full convo on there site shoutbox, you have to create your own setup yes they do have a starter pack but it would be like having a arcade on your site with only one game thats how terrible it is. Just wasted my money when I went with the pro version so if others read this then think twice. Then to think you just paid for a product and if you want to have quest then you will have to buy them also But yet there is none out there still making them.

[Inferno Tech]

Well im sorry to hear that you have had a bad experiance, rpg inferno does have an uninstaller admincp/rpginferno_uninstallation.php. What emailaddress did you send your questions to?

Also what you need to bear in mind is that version 2.4 has been discontinued a while ago, and the team are currently working on version 3 Gold. If you had problems you could have used the Support pages on GZ|E and you would have an answer as quick as you would if you posted it here.

I am using v3 and no there is no uninstaller at all only way to remove it is from phpmyadmin. I have emailed business@infernotechnologies.net but with no reply I have posted in the support forums on GZ|E but your lucky if you get a reply from a staff member everyone is to busy on the shout box or I guess you have to fit in the "click" to get support.

[Inferno Tech]

Well could you modify your previous post stating that you are on about v3? and everyone gets equal support on the forums, if you wish to pm me (http://www.forums.gzevolution.net/private.php?do=newpm&u=6094) on there, and i will try to help you with your problems.

Acid Burn - Inferno Technologies Developer

[DementedMindz]

modify my previous post about what? I'm using v3 so what is there to modify? I think everything i have posted thus far is truthful.

[Inferno Tech]

This thread is about v2.4, please don't post about other products in here :)

EDIT: For the record, the business email adress is for that - Business. Anything else gets deleted without even being opened. Support is done on the forums, where the average response time is approx 4 hours.

- Iain

[DementedMindz]

well I was just letting others know about it as there is other v3 post in this topic also.

[Inferno Tech]

For the record, i can only see one post you made requesting support, and the problem was resolved within 45 minutes, despite it being 3-4am in the morning :)

Your other posts have all been asking for free stuff, and not requesting support at all.

Asking for things for free is NOT support related questions, which probably explains why you aren't getting a reply :)

- Iain

[DementedMindz]

solved in 45 mins yeah by me removing it and reinstalling it since it has nothing in it to drop db tables you have to do it manually via phpmyadmin if you install the starter pack you cant remove all the towns I asked how to but yet was never answered by a support person only someone on the site who said you can try and do it this way but not one response by a staff member even though there was staff on the site and active in the shoutbox.

[Inferno Tech]

Virtually all of the staff on GZE have nothing to do with Inferno Technologies, only 3 members of staff there at the most are related to Inferno Technologies

Acid Burn - Inferno Technologies Developer

[DementedMindz]

Yeah like I posted on the site I'm just going to remove RPG Inferno 3.0 and be done with it and never refer anyone there and cut my loses. Not even 24 hours it was installed had to remove it cause I couldn't remove shops even asked on site but was never responded to by a "Inferno Technologies Staff Member". So once again you get another customer who is unhappy as there seems to be alot of them and keep in mind word of mouth is everything to a business.

[Inferno Tech]

Just to clarify, could you please point me to the thread you made asking how to remove shops? I searched the entire site and couldn't find it. Thanks.

- Iain

[DementedMindz]

man your a joke how can you say I tried to blackmail someone when nothing of that sort ever came out of my mouth?

[Inferno Tech]

You didn't on VB.org, and accordingly i didn't bring it up here. I fail to see any reason why you would, other than to try to cause trouble :)

I have checked your profile, i have only seen ONE thread you started asking for support, and that was about a division by zero problem, when you set the stats up incorrectly, you were given the correct answer to this in 45 minutes.

Since then you have not started one support thread. So i am unsure where you got your "no support" idea from. Perhaps if you actually ASKED for support in a thread, you would have gotten it.

Please stop posting in this thread unless you have a question or a comment on RPG Inferno 2.4

If you want to go on a tirade about how you didnt read what you were buying, im sure VB.org has some sort of feedback area.

Your posts on GZE are being answered, and you seem to be just repeating yourself here to cause trouble, so please, stop disrupting this support thread. Thanks.

No one is disrupting this thread I simple posted how I felt like gray did a few pages back ;)
And it seems to be that its how a few people on your site feels as well. You correct my support answers were answered but not by a "Inferno Technologies Staff Member" only by another member who thought there was no way to do it and never once did a staff members say oh this is how you do it since there is no sql to remove anything. Also I have said pretty much the same things on here that I did on your site and never once did blackmail come out of my mouth.


Lets look at TroyF2000's post it sums it up well.

Ouchies. Okay, here goes me.:mummy:

It should say that, though.

YAHH! Excellent. That's really great, Decado. Too bad some of us, if not most people probably, don't exactly..umm...oh, how do I put this....KNOW HOW TO DO THAT!:silly:

When I bought a license for your software, I knew nothing about creating my own game. To be honest, I didn't think I would ever need to. I just wanted to have something to play at my forum that was cooler than the Arcade. The RPG Inferno has the potential to give a forum owner just that. But until about last month, pretty much since last August, mine's been just something for my members to barely look at. That's caused alot of grief for me, considering that I paid you guys for it. However, thanks to some very nice members of GZE, I've finally managed to learn enough now to config out what I hope to be one of the best themes possible for the Inferno. But this has only come because they chose to go out of their way and assist me in setting it up. If not for these guys, what would I have done then, Decado? Keep having something just to "look" at? And what of those whom my good samaritans don't find their way to? What about them?http://www.solitudesbane.net/forums/images/smilies/106.gif

I suggest you release a universal PDF booklet on configuring the software accordingly, as well as a fully-completed theme for owners, who do not wish to learn how to mod their own, the ability to experience the RPG also. Otherwise, you are going to keep having disgruntle customers who come to wish they hadn't become your patrons. To me, such a thing would really suck, personally. This, however, may be perfectly okay for you, Decado. If that's the case, I can promise you it won't always be.:shakehead:


- Solitus

So I guess I'm the only one who feels this way? Then to be told I'm blackmailing you by posting facts?

[Inferno Tech]

Again, you are posting about a completely different product in this thread, please stop trying to be a nuisance :)

For the record, i never claimed you were the only one, but a couple of people out of several hundred isn't a bad record, no matter which way you turn it.

If i release a product and get a 99% satisfaction ratio, i'm pleased with that, and since the ratio of complaints to sales for RPG inferno is about 1%, i'm happy :)

Your questions and grievances are all being adressed on the official site, in the forum for that product. Please stop trying to hijack a thread on another forum and another product. Thanks.

[DementedMindz]

Ok so no on on this thread can ask about 3.0 or talk about it as others have? It seems like when facts are proving and points are proving you go back to this hijack this thread no its not what I'm trying to do and stated a few times I was simply giving warning to others who may think this is a plug and play as its far from it and will require a long time before you can even use it like its ment to be as even TroyF2000 stated and hes had his installed since last August. Have you ever installed anyone elses mod on here and complained about it or posted you didnt like something? Well thats what I'm doing and don't feel I'm in the wrong on doing so.

Yeah this maybe a 2.4 thread but you should also follow them same words then and not talk about it either as you have done the same thing in this thread also.

[Inferno Tech]

For the last time, please stop talking about problems with other products in this thread. There is a forum for that and it isn't this one. If you continue to try to cause trouble and derail the thread, i'm going to have to ask an admin to act on it, because i'm sure it's against the rules.

Thanks.

[DementedMindz]

against the rules how can it be against the rules when you your self have talked about it here? Thats like the pot calling the kettle black. so what is good for you aint good for the rest of us?

[Inferno Tech]

Right DementedMindz, all Iain is trying to say, could you leave your grievances for v3 out of the 2.4 thread as it has nothing to do with it.
This is an old version that is being supported by me not the rest of the team. So dont drag this thread in the dirt because you have discrepancies with v3 please.

i don't have this 2.4 version installed but may be interested in purchase of v3..

Who ever edited my post you need to read more I was stating a fact.

webdosser, your best bet is to post a thread in the pre-sales question part of Gamezone about that, emails tend to take longer, since only one person will receive them, and they sometimes ghet caught up in spam filters :)

The lite version is unable to import any packs, so you have to do it on your own. With the full version you can import packs, small starter packs are supplied on GZE, and you can ask other people for their packs etc.

This look great.
My site is not in english so if I want to use it I need to translate it. How easy it's to translate it? does it uses phrases if if yes does it in the templates as well?

Also can someone tell me what the meaning of all the character's elemental type such as STR, HP, MP etc.

[thetopday21122]

This looks like a really good mod. I'm going to install it.

[thetopday21122]

A question, I added a job but it doesn't show up in the Job list. Also when you go to the members search, no search thing shows up. Can anyone help me?

[Inferno Tech]

NOt sure why the search isnt working... For jobs you need to create a chain so for example starting job = mage, evolves into - Summoner, or something like that.

[thetopday21122]

Okay. For the search, nothing related to searching shows up, same with the member list.

[RichieBoy67]

Great!!! Installed very easily... Setting up all the various weapons etc is the hard part..

How about in future versions possibly having some default items etc already installed? Then it would truly be ready to use upon installation...

I love it though.. cannot wait to get everything going...

Thanks for the work that went into it...

[Inferno Tech]

Richie the newest version is V3, which is for sale at infernotechnologies.net - There is a starter pack available for it in the support forums, and several sets beign created for sale.
