thx for da update!

Ive now completed the Class Manager (ie the ACP part for editing Classes), also preparing it for supporting multiple genders beyond "Male" and "Female", which again will support better limitations (Gender by Race).
As such, the Headquarters needs more recoding than I thought, since some problems arose with the JS for the dropdowns.
Over the upcoming days, I will have much more time to work on this, so the AdminCP stuff should be done in a not too huge amount of time.

Sounds nice!
But may I ask one thing? What is the difference between your RPG hack and ZeroTolerance's?

At the time of writing this, his hack has more features. Some features are also different in functionality. I can't go into details because I am not all that familiar with his hack.
Some of my friends have told me about some problems they had with Inferno, like showthread doing 600+ queries, and that the coding style of Inferno is highly unreadable.
I am also making the move to OOP, like vBulletin, which allows me to have far less coding to perform advanced caching operations for query efficiency.

My RPG might be slower in development, but hey finding motivation to work on an all-free hack ain't that easy, you know...

Yeah, sure thing... But I think a lot of people might be donating when you have finished porting it over to 3.5 (btw: do you have a rough ETA?).

The ETA is located in my sig, but I might have to move it over to Early 2006 due to problems arising here and there that takes more development time than I had previously foreseen.
As I said, starting tomorrow I will have 7-10 days without Internet, so I will get alot of work done during that time period.
Know that Im not dilly-dallying away the time, Im trying to find the best and most efficient method of doing whatever I want to do, so further extending the hack will be easier.
An example is the stats calculation, currently its doing the same calculations 4-5 times throughout the hack, which makes it extremely difficult to implement new things. Centralising this coding will make adding new features modifying stats easier.

*fans the fire that he started before under raven*

its all good bro just dont give up on it.

I believe the days of my no Inet will come to an end soon, so I think it is appropriate to give an update on how the progress is going.
The AdminCP is going along great. The following items are the ones left to work on:

• Items (Add/Edit/Delete Items) - Half the script is done
• Battles (Edit/Cancel Battles) - Not started yet
• Monster Battles (Edit/Cancel Monster Battles) - Not started yet
• Manage Monsters (Add/Edit/Cancel Monsters)- Not started yet
• Maintenance (Reset RPG) - Postponed for quickfix update after release

Everything else concerning the AdminCP is fully functional and optimised.
Note that I have splitted most of the old files, so "rpgadmin.php" has become rpg_users.php et cetera.

As for the main forum area, currently only the Headquarters work, with the HealCP 80% done. No other files/templates have been touched yet.

Im also going to aim for releasing smaller updates with smaller amount of new features in quicker succession after the release of this version. First up will be the completion of the Maintenance feature.


Thats it for todays update, thanks for reading and sticking with this hack :)

Thanks for the update m8. Can't wait.
