Aerith's Mage Types Version 2.0.0

Yes it's been a long wait but it's finally here. Please note that I haven't had the time to test this on a live board yet, so please report any bugs that occurr.

This hack is really designed for RPG communities (such as Final Fantasy for example). It is a great improvement over it's predecessor. Users now have their own RPG Control Panel where the can customize aspects of their RP character. In this Control Panel they can choose their Job Class, Charcter Gender, Character Race, Attack Element, Alignment (side) as well as giving their character a name (done by SQL not by additional profile fields) and a biography.

Also in this version Users also get their own RPG Card. The RPG Card is another Member Profile, however it only displays the Users RPG information. This stops Member Profiles being cluttered with RPG related items. There is also the option to show the Job Class on the postbit template, however it's entirely up to you whether you do or not.

UPDATING FROM THE PREVIOUS VERSION:

I'm afraid if you have my previous version (1.0.0 or higher) then you'll have to manually remove everything that was added. This is simply because I started this version from scratch, and a few things are different.

INSTALATION:

A file named install.txt is included within the .zip pack that contains all information on how to install. This time it uses an installer script so you don't have to worry about executing queries manually.

OTHER HACKS INCORPORATED:

This hack also uses Knoman's Stats & Levels hack. However it is incorporated into the RPG Card system, so if you already have his hack running then you do not need to remove it. Thanks must be given to Knoman for allowing me to use the hack.

OTHER:

Please please please read through the other .txt files included within the .zip . They each contain important information that you need to read before you even begin to install the hack.

SCREENSHOTS:

Like I said I haven't had time to run this script yet, so I haven't had time to take screenshots either. I'll try and add them as soon as possible.

SPECIAL THANKS:

Thanks goes to all these people:

-> Knoman for granting me permisson to use and modify his Stats & Levels hack within the production of this hack.
-> TWTCommish for producing one of the first vB Install scripts.
-> CraterSeraph for all his help along the way
-> afterlab for the constant inspiration
-> [D]Vincent for building on my first Job Class hack and throwing some more ideas into the fray. Even if we aren't exactly on level terms, he still inspired me to build this version.


Support will only be given in this thread. Please do not e-mail me or IM me for support

ONLY INSTALL ON A BETA FORUM FOR THE TIME BEING, I CAN'T GUARENTEE STABITLITY ON A MAINSTREAM BOARD!

one thing i noticed is that you don't have the floor code when figuring up the stats so the stats will come out with a decimal, i.e. 49.67 or something like that, the floor code will round it up to 50 instead of it staying at 49.67

also there is only two races :P there should be more than that, some people don't know how to code in more races so that would be difficult for them to work with

plus don't you think that since you have spell immunities that you should make up a little attack thing where each class gets a few attacks? kind of like how i had the limit break thing only instead it's just special abilities

also when you do make the classes work with the admin cp perhaps you can make the other stuff work also, so that people can edit, add, remove races, classes, elements, alignments, immunities, ranks, attacks if you do add that on, and maybe also the stats for each class

an idea i was going to try doing was making sub-classes, for exmaple you pick a class category, let's say these are the categories:
warrior
mage
theif
warrior/mage
and then once you pick it your category you select which class you want in that category, each one being diffirent than the next but still having similar things, these would be the classes I use:
warrior category:
barbarian
fighter
samurai
mage category:
wizard
druid
cleric
theif category:
rogue
bard
ninja
warrior/mage category:
tainted paladin
paladin
ranger
this is just one thing i was going to do with an RP on my site and if it was in this hack then it would be very easy for them to select their class instead of posting a profile and me and the mods doing everything manually
